It's very difficult to give you a clear reason on why X thing is bad because.. well, nobody have seen X.
But, if you are not very naive, you should be asking yourself why a free trade treaty is so important when we already have free trade. And if it's only a few changes to the current situation, why all the secret?

- witty_username 11y ago> you should be asking yourself why a free trade treaty is so important when we already have free trade Depends on your definition of "free trade", but we don't have completely free trade; many countries have high tarrifs, for example Japan's rice tarrif. http://blogs.wsj.com/japanrealtime/2015/10/06/tpp-deal-expected-to-shake-up-japans-agriculture-sector/ http://blogs.wsj.com/japanrealtime/2015/10/06/tpp-deal-expec... (OK, this is TPP, but I'm sure the same point applies).
