| 1325055 | 2013-01-27 20:48:00 | I am all for Free Trade But the USA is not a good free trader Look what they did to Aussie with their sugar. The USA has huge farming lobbies. I think we should not have let them join the TTP until we had finalised it. Then say to them these are the terms, if you want to join you can. But the point is they are a potential big market for us - 300 million people We are only a drop in the bucket (equal to one state) for them. |
