The difference, quite simply, is that the owners of the property OWN the property and are thus entitled to certain rights in respect thereof. Service providers do not own their jobs nor any right to continue to provide the services they provide, other than as dictated by the market.

You don't understand politics. If you want someone to do something that is against their interest, you have to pay them. Assuming the majority of the US population is better off killing free trade and immigration policies, you have will have to pay them off. Quid pro quo. Pork barrel politics. Call it what you like.
You have to understand, if the only clear beneficiaries of free trade with countries that have low standards of living are poor foreigners and the rich, then free trade is a shitty deal for the majority of the U.S. population. And if you want them to consent to it, you'll have to pay them.
