Columbia......could help?

The Wall Street Journal is a great magazine especially when they publish articles like this. It talks about how the Government is trying to talk a free-trade agreement with, get this…..Columbia. Now I don’t know a lot about this kind of stuff but I always thought that Columbia was just a poor little country that nobody wanted, and nobody wanted to talk to. I didn’t know about the country so I looked it up on http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0107419.html and the top three exports in Columbia are: Coffee (of course), Coal, and (drum roll please) Petroleum. We could save money by buying oil from them and it would cost less to transport it here. There probably is a down side to this but right now it sounds pretty darn good.
