As I cant think of any - I'm discounting the US - as it's that sort of federal states type system since it's begining.
Does Japan let China dictate it's health and safety laws ?
Maybe Australia allows New Zealand to rule on some Australian law cases.
What about Mexico telling the US to give it's seat on the UN security council in favour of a combined US/Mexico representative ?
To me - that is what is wrong with the whole system, lets trade with each other, lets even have our own industrial currency that we do imports / exports in, maybe even agree on a set of common safety rules for all our collective electrical products. But let us not tell each other that we are free to come and go into each others countries etc - lets not encourage companies in one country to avoid paying tax in another country because it offers a cheaper tax rate.
