:Price discrimination is the act of selling two identical goods to two different people, charging different prices for the two sales.  It is technically illegal, as many feel it is unfair for a supplier to "exploit" one person by charging more, but it still goes on under the guise of different tricks.  For example, at a ski mountain in Vermont where we usually go for a week in the winter, there are two classes of lift ticket for over-18s: Adult and Vermonter; a Vermonter ticket (which requires residence in the state) is 20% less than a normal one.

;Price discrimination should not be illegal; the resale market for most goods prevents it (if a merchant sold a rug to one person for $2000 and to another for $2500, the one who got the better price would simply buy more rugs than he needed and resell them at a price lower than $2500 and more than $2000.  For items such as lift tickets or a sweatshirt with your name on it, you cannot resell it, and the sellers, if discrimination is illegal, will simply find ways around it, as described above.  Finally, poorer people will most likely get a better deal on things, as sellers know they cannot afford as high a price as the richer.  (Duncan)

10.  Do you support "free trade" because it creates wealth, or do you oppose it for simply redistributing wealth to foreigners, some hostile to the United States?
