Fuck sanctions.

If domestic producers want domestic buyers, they should lower their prices to be competitive and take less profit as a result. But they won't do that if they can have the government step in to artificially raise the prices of competitors' products.

If they can't do this while paying employees respectable wages, then it shouldn't be up to the government to step in and bail them out.

We're literally letting the government force us to have worse deals so people richer than us can be even richer at our expense.
