We have very low tariffs in this country compared to the rest of the world. Brazil charges an 18% tariff. Shell. Shellfish. Okay, shellfish. Significant seafood industry in the United States.

I don't know that for a fact, but whatever the two lucky states are, Europeans can have their shellfish. (1:45:03–1:52:04)
