International Trade committee  I've always wondered why, when we are the second-largest country in the world with 36 million people, and we're going into a trade agreement.... If anybody should have the will to say, hey, we don't have to have a trade agreement, it should be us. There's no reason why with all the resources and everything this country has and with that small population we couldn't be on our own.
