"Why do I expect that you are not in favor of free trade agreements with Colombia, South Korea, and Panama? Let me guess, they are not "fair." "

Tell how much a country buys from us and we buy from them. If a significant constant difference exists we are being screwed or they are being screwed. Fair went out the window when gold settlements did. Trading jobs and Treasuries for cheap consumer goods is lose-lose.

So in other words, our economy should only trade with economies as large as ours. That'll work. /s

(And it also blows your "fairness" argument out of the water--you're not interested in trade at all).
