I have posted a new topic entitled “Import certificates”.
It begins in this fashion: “Import Certificates
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

///////////////////////////////////////”
[At this point a transcript of the article, a description and some discussion of a specific version of Import Certificates appears within the post. That transcript’s first paragraph is:

“Import certificates are a proposed mechanism to implement balanced trade, and eliminate a country's trade deficit. The idea was proposed by Warren Buffett in 2003 to address the U.S. trade deficit. In the United States, the idea was first introduced legislatively in the Balanced Trade Restoration Act of 2006. The proposed legislation was sponsored by Senators Byron Dorgan (ND) and Russell Feingold (WI), two Democrats in the United States senate. Since then there has been no action on the bill”.

Is it reasonable that this thread’s been locked?
I believe John Galt gave me to understand that I violated the following Crossfire rule:
“New thread topics must be presented with an opinion from the original poster which clearly points out what the discussion is about, a link to an article presenting the topic, and a quote from the link’.

If googling is too difficult, I don’t mind inserting a link but that seemed redundant and unnecessary.

Respectfully, Supposn
