The concessions it contains on manufactured products like automobiles are much smaller than those on, say, agricultural products, which will involve profound sacrifices from other TPP countries, such as Japan. After all, existing tariff levels on manufactured goods are already much lower than those on agriculture or dairy products.
这一转变在政治上不无道理，但从经济角度糟糕透顶。现实是，TPP非常有利于美国。在汽车等制造商品上做出的让步要远小于（比如说）农产品，而农产品方面的让步将导致其他TPP国家（比如日本）做出巨大牺牲。毕竟，从现有关税水平看，制造商品比农产品或乳制品低得多。
