On October 5, the United States and eleven Pacific Rim nations agreed to the largest regional trade accord in history — uniting 40 percent of the world’s economy — in a potentially game-changing model for global commerce and labor standards that includes over 18,000 tax cuts for US exports to the Asia-Pacific region.
