Free Trade finds a way

Encouraging news:

Multilateral negotiations aimed at ending trade and customs barriers are expected to last several more years and they face fierce opposition by anti-globalization campaigners.

It seems free trade is starting to act the way life does in Jurassic Park, "[trade] always finds a way". While the anti-capitalist movement of the world (Greenies, Reds, Leftists, Statists) gather up for protests during world-leader meetings, the real free-trade agreements are being made on a country-to-country basis.
