China may take advantage of the rules, but patient 0 for unfairly manipulating global trade is the United States. Consider all the pro-Hollywood trade agreements that have strengthened IP rights and weakened the public domain. Or the constant interference in South American politics. Or the fact that the United States basically controls the IMF and uses it to enforce economic policies beneficial to its own multinational corporations.
