TPP-Free Trade Should Be a Unilateral Decision

President Obama and many others on both sides of the political isle are fretting over whether the negotiated free trade deals, known as the Trans-Pacific Partnership agreement, will be approved by Congress. This is needless worry because we should simply abandon all barriers to trade unilaterally rather than wait for a “deal’ from other countries. Free trade benefits everyone except the few special interests that are protected by the trade barriers.
Let’s stop looking for deals and simply remove our barriers. It’s called leadership.
