Nations that trade with each other do not go to war with each other. Every nation has some advantages in trading with other nations. In world trade, competition is superior to cooperation. Material self-interest is the strongest motivator for individuals and nations. People have to act collectively to further their well-being.
Interdependence is better than independence.
World trade will strengthen democracy. Economic development is more powerful than civic values. Trade creates more jobs and higher standards of living. Multinational corporations have become more powerful than nations. Trade with few or no restrictions would be best for everyone.
