GATT: Rich Men Attempt to Officially Take Control of Everything

[This commentary published in the June/July, 1994 edition of the Washington Free Press.]

The law officially requiring all tuna sold in the United States to be dolphin-safe was only in effect one week before those wonderful rich men associated with the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) declared it illegal. They claim the Marine Mammal Protection Act, which has reduced the dolphin kill from 500,000 annually to 4,000 in 1993, is an illegal, non-tariff barrier to trade.

[A version of the following review was published on the Ain't It Cool News website in June of 2000.]

Letter to the Seattle Times

This is in response to your WTO Poll article.

An interesting question to add to the poll would have been:

From where did you get your information on WTO related events?

A. I was downtown and experienced most of it first hand.
B. Through the media (TV, radio, newspapers).
