All else being equal, I think most people prioritize their own country and countrymen over others', and would not sacrifice their own countrymen to benefit others'. You may not share this view, but I think most people do. Most people consider themselves a part of a national team, and they feel some loyalty to their teammates.

Free trade reduces costs for people. I’d agree that things have gotten more complicated than that though in the transition to a service based economy.
