@cmuratori You really think that's comparable? You can't expect to sell into foreign markets without restrictions.3 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -

@cmuratori Pre-globalization analogies fall short here. The intent is to prevent foreign sellers from having a competitive advantage.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@pervognsen The solution to this would be extremely simple, though. Just require the credit card company to charge the tax.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -
