I'm talking about voluntary trades between nations, and whether they should be encouraged.

Agreed! Unfortunately the US understanding of trade liberalization is much more confined and one-sided. The US doesn't seem to understand liberalization as going both ways. I think Australia ended up been bullied in a free trade agreement with the US that wasn't to Australia advantage, as have been most US trades agreements with other countries. Correct me if I am wrong.

My first question why do the US feel it has to be negotiated, if it is a "free" trade agreement?
