US legislators block capitalist progress in Vietnam? It's ironic that we fought to save them from Marxism, then seek to block their access to American markets.. check out the Catfish Wars.
"Today, however, when it comes to one market, it's the government of Vietnam that's fighting for the economic freedom of its people. And, sadly, it is the United States that's using the power of the state to deprive the Vietnamese of the right to earn a living. The market is catfish. And the behavior of American politicians in the so-called "catfish wars" has been consistently appalling."
(By the way, my town of Carthage, Missouri is host to over 40,000 Vietnamese visitors during a local Catholic religious retreat each year.)
