Certainly did not make him a better human being between condoning torture, kill lists, and his utter disregard for human liberties. I wonder how any child could respect such a bloodthirsty parent.

This is neither responsive to my comment (which points out that TPP fines are settled between governments, and not to people who can "ignore" fines; somehow, this has become an argument against my comment?) nor falsifiable.

Perhaps English is not your native language?

How do you know TPP fines are settled between governments? TPP is still ongoing, and is secret. How can I be more clear?

As for your opinion about free trade, it hardly deserves a response, please consult a dictionary because you are not using the word correctly.

It's hard to employ smuggling as a protest against a free trade deal, since the point of a free trade deal is to reduce the set of goods that need to be smuggled. And the fines in the TPP are settled between governments, not between aggrieved governments and individual foreign citizens.

How would you know what the TPP entails?

From leaks it suggests it involves companies suing governments for cash settlement.

Also, you are rather naive if you think 'free trade' means free trade, it will be nothing of the sort, it will raise barriers and make many goods and services more expensive.
