The Chinese have agreed to have a highlevel human rights dialog with the United States. This new dialog would likely be one of the first casualties of MFN withdrawal. Emigration and student travel to the United States. which has continued since Tiananmen. would also suffer. Farmers have long been suspicious of attempts to use food as a weapon. and we would be using food as a weapon. or to send a message to some real or imagined international outlaw. Nearly all past attempts to punish foreign governments have resulted in drastically lower prices for American farmers and less food for the oppressed people our action is supposed to be saving.
