I hope this represents a fundamental shift in American trade policy.
American free trade agreements should only be extended to countries that have roughly symmetrical environmental policies, human/labor rights, market access, IP protection, among other things.
Any trade deals less this sensibility amounts to the exploration of people, the planet or of property rights, and should be taxed extensively.

I want China to progress as any other country but under fairness and without this atrocious 1 party authoritarian regime. Imagine if they were like Japan or India with free speech and democratic government, hell I would move to Shenzhen!
