Made in China

The Trans-Pacific Partnership is a free trade agreement being proposed by President Obama that would directly connect Texas and the US economy to 11 nations; Austrailia, Brunei, Canada, Chile, Japen, Malayasia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore and Vietnam. In this Article An International trade pact with big implications here in Texas the author is obviously a supporter of President Obama and the newest free trade agreement. They talk about how it is a "historic deal" and how it will build on the states increasing importance in global trade. She plays in on the 'eco-friendly"crowd by mentioning that if the agreement passes through Congress that it will "bring these nations closer to U.S. labor and environmental standards. That not only help workers and nature but also helps make sure that those nations dont have an unfair economic advantage". The author seems to be credible and uses statistics to further their point. They are also realistic though and mention how there are downfalls to any free trade agreement but declines to explain what specific downfalls there might be. Providing more facts on how it would be good for Texas and none to basically zero facts on how it would be bad. They also mention how Republican contender Donald Trump believes it is a terrible idea but again fails to expand on that any more. Seems to me that the author has written a biased article trying to portray the good things about a freetrade agreement and none of the bad things.
