let's be clear: deminimus being $800 is corrupt. what gets me about this sort of thing is that we don't wind up getting to the bottom of it. the current deminimus violates the intent - we need to not just restore it to something reasonable, like $10, but also find out what in the process went wrong, find out whose palm was greased. $10 sounds too low? consider that with today's IT, import processing fees should be much lower than that. the idea of deminimus is a fine one, just that these numbers don't make sense, and cause a lot of damage.
