<<Predatory trade" is just a euphemism for low prices.>>
Doesn't "trade organizations" such as the Japanese gaibatsu and zaibatsu 
effect your premise? So it wouldn't be a nation state that is successfully 
performing such trade practices, but an aggreagte that runs the economy of 
such a nation.
Perhaps India's population (should similar orgs exist in India) gets screwed 
over, as well as the American public, while those in some kind of 'trade 
cabal' would be the main profiters. Having said that, one has to posit 
whether the world is all the terrible from an American point of view? It does 
come down, not upon principle, but on whether the American public is 
comparatively, content. At least as far as the American governance is 
concerned.
