    He doesn’t want a level playing field. A level playing field would mean obeying the same rules and regulations.

    “Level Playing field”: Sell your countries to BP, the fruit company

    “We are going to destroy you”: CIA funds a coup and installs dictators who strike good deals with Joe Shmoe from Texas who happens to be a genius negotiator (don’t look at the snipers aiming at you as you sign away your country).

    Or you know, Iraq 2.0!
