<DIV>Mr. Hansen,</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>How come 2/3 of the companies that do business with Chile for tuna are paying more than Wal_mart for the tuna yet none of their dollars are going to clean up?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I have a hunch that if Wal-Mart was charged 50% more for their tuna that not one dime would go to clean up either.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I appears the problem and solution rests with the actions of the federal government of Chile, not Wal-Mart. Wal-Mart gives them a huge chunk of change. It is up to Chile to do what is correct or not correct with those dollars. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>_DJA<BR><BR><B><I>Tom Hansen <thansen@moscow.com></I></B> wrote:</DIV> <BLOCKQUOTE class=replbq style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #1010ff 2px solid">Deacon James stated:<BR><BR>"Let's put in terms of groceries, then: $.30 can of tuna vs. $.50 can of<BR>tuna.
