Few people outside the U.S.A, and even fewer inside the U.S.A., realize how much the rest of the world are propping up its sagging economy. Whether it is relatively rich countries who provide markets massaged by U.S. protectionism, or poor countries who provide slave labour (where would Nike be without all those kids in Asia?) we are all the Wonderbra of the American economy.

This means in effect that the world is paying a tax to support America. Given that Bush is trying to railroad us into a war that hardly anyone in the world wants, I have this to say to the American government:

"No taxation without representation!"
