2. What exactly are "the agreements" mentioned in clause 3?
3. Exactly what does 4.c. mean, especially in reference to the rest of the proposal? In language that doesn't require me to be an economics major student, please.

Ricardo chimed in. "Yeah, well, everyone here that seems to know how tariffs work is in agreement... Although some objections by Bananaistan and Sierra Lyricalia are being studied now by... oh wait, I should be doing that."

1. Who decides what is proportional?
2. Suppose a nation put a 10% tariff on all Aclionian agriculural products but we do not import any of their agricultural products could we put a tarriff on a different product that we import.
3. When you say proportional do you mean proportional in terms of rate or total income from the tariffs. For example if nation A placed a 10% tariff on nation b's goods, collecting 2billion ns$ could nation b place a 70% tariff on nation A to recoup those 2billion?

OOC: I think you meant clause 4 there. So it basically says that if Nation A puts, say, a 5% duty on imports from Nation B, then Nation B can put duty on imports from Nation A, but making that duty 50% instead of 5-10% would be forbidden?

I'm fairly sure that, unless we're changing the rules, proposals can't include expiry dates legally: Once a resolution passes, it's in effect unless & until repealed... Right?
