There is not that much opposition to these trade deals - the opposition is usually from minority (i.e. political) or special interest group (i.e. an industry that would be disrupted, like agriculture). Case and point - it's the Walloon farmers that scuttled this deal it seems - and agriculture is always the most challenging participant because of how strongly subsidized they are, and how we give them some strategic interests etc.. Most people are generally pro trade these days - even in Europe.

> There is not that much opposition to these trade deals - the opposition is usually from minority (i.e. political) or special interest group (i.e. an industry that would be disrupted, like agriculture). Are you kidding? A large majority is opposing. Only government leaders and EU heads support this kind of deals.
