THE WEEK IN REVIEW!!!!
-Hey - boy are my feet tired!
-6 days of street protests sure take it out of a guy! What do I think I am anyway? A KID??!!
- And by all appearances the WTO is about as well organized as the protestors but better armed! With much more generous expense accounts!

[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.
