Model 3  We should create harsher sentences for bootleggers.
Jane: It’s about time that the government got tough with bootleggers. Their fake liquors have already killed several people.
Peter: Yeah, that’s too high a price to pay. It’s almost a rip-off. The bootleggers use industrial alcohol to cut costs and increase profits.
Jane: Perhaps we should cut taxes on liquor. With lower taxes, bootlegging will decrease.
Peter: But that can create a new problem. That’s not in agreement with the WTO rules.
Jane: I think through negotiation with other nations, perhaps we can cut taxes under the WTO framework.
Peter: That may be tough. Perhaps a better solution is to create harsher sentences for bootleggers.
Jane: I agree. Our country needs a special team to deal with this problem. Then we can crack down on bootlegging.
