Thank you David and pahoated for your replies, and helping me understand the TPP agreements better. Not sure why they would need their (TPP) rules, regulations, or laws to trump our county, state, or governments? Or Why China would not be part of this pacific trade agreement?. Where do our island grocery stores get most of its produce currently, Chile,Guam, maybe the mainland or mexico? Now with the TPP agreement wouldn't we be getting more options, also Hawaiian made or grown products should have a stronger market, yes or no?. Is this a strong rub for big business only or for all small, medium, and big business alike?. Also Why does Hawaii support it so stronly and have the controversial secret meetings, I guess its some kind of tourism?.
