Well as the cover of our magazine shows candidates that could directly affect trade compliance and especially reverse logistics. There isn’t one of us who grows frustrated with the arbitrary laws that are put in place by do-gooders by who have been appointed by political hacks. Most of the time they don’t understand the issues that are faced in reverse logistics or do they understand the impact that they’re making on trade compliance when they draft a new law.
Our cover of our magazine shows pictures of those individuals who are running for political offices around the world and those existing individuals who run countries and make executive decisions on what the rules should be. If you don’t think things are going well in trade compliance then please send a letter to the Department of Transportation and try and help them look past the political side of making rules and look at what’s best for the consumer and the taxpayer. What ever happen to North American Free Trade Agreement, the last time I met with the DOT, they told me that much of the law is over-looked or not implemented due to political considerations.

Our cover sheet shows the top ten economic leaders in the world and we selected ten potential candidates for US President (this wasn’t based on any poll rating, I wanted to show the diversity and spectrum of those individuals that are running this year in the USA. I think it’s really good to have several choices. Yet at the same time these folks can make it enjoyable are not so enjoyable for us and our job in the future, so pay attention to what is real and what’s not and cast your vote accordingly.
It’s never too late to get involved with these candidates to make your RL trade compliance work better for your country.
