We can be a team player without becoming a global slave. We can start partnerships without opening our arms to bullying. We can buy made-in-China without becoming a maid-of-China. If Sweden did it to the European Union (just out of sheer political will), why can't we? We may not have their money, but we sure have plenty of politicians. What else can our politicians do aside from pocketing pork barrels? Can they show us some political will, at least?
