"In the case of the TPP the US is looking to establish itself, its rules and its influence in the Pacific"
There is the issue with that. THERE!!!! Just stay the fuck where you are and do not "establish itself" the world all over.

- xnull2guest 12y ago> I don't mean that directed at you personally but at your gov. I understand. I get it. I'm actually very partial to the idea. It's the unfortunate truth that China is also making big bets to establish itself around the world and to gain influence - for example its heavy investment in Africa or the development of its own (BRICS) world bank. The US is not some lone perpetrator. The world would be better if we could all 'just get along'.
