They don't like free trade. They don't like a framework and a set of rules that means that someone with a firm producing a product has a wider range of people to sell to. They don't like the fact that we have a wider range of goods to purchase. They don't like the fact that we can make choices in our lives about which adults we do business with, even if they're in other countries. They don't like it. They like to be able to control the goods and services that New Zealanders consume and the customers that New Zealanders serve. Free trade is bad news for big Government because it gives people options and alternatives that the Government, which evolved to control the nation State, cannot dominate. It gives us options and opportunities outside our borders, and that is what the left in New Zealand hates. In a word, it is freedom.
