That's how they're going to drive us under...they're going to get us all wearing cheap boots, and then they'll invade.

Not really, it makes no sense to kill your customer, or your supplier, don't bite the hand that feeds.
I think the peace effects of trade is something important to consider. Note the "McDonald's effect"... no countries with McDonald's franchises in them have ever gone to war with each other.
Some countries that have them have fought in the past, before they had McDo's (e.g. Germany and Poland), some McDo countries have fought those with none at all (USA vs Irak)
But McDo on McDo has not happened.
Big Macs of peace!
