Then you need a new source.
The "free trade" agreement with Japan is a weaker version of the deal the EU has with Japan. We had to give them concessions that they didn't have to give to us when we were in the EU.
Brazil trades as part of Mercosur. So not sure how they're pulling that one off. In fact it's not even on the list you URL'd.
Those other countries we have agreements with - I don't suppose those are "WTO" style agreements are they? Like the "Australia style" agreement" they're talking about with the EU, i.e., WTO. That's not free trade mate. That's basically saying we'll tariff the shit out of you and you can do the same to us.
