b,
I agree that we are all better off by having good international trade relationships. I think that the issue that I have is that the international relationships are normally presented as if the U.S. strongarmed every deal and that every country is the victim of both political and business strongarm tactics. As someone who has spent much of his career in the international arena, I have found that *everyone* tries it. My experience is that China and France are the worst. However, I have always had the right to say "no deal". If I don't like a deal and say "yes" to it, I find it difficult to view myself as a victim of anything but my own failings. Seriously, if doing business or having international relations with the U.S. is so painful, please, please, can't the world just say "no" instead of turning buyer's/seller's remorse into some sort of victim status.
