Flush the TPP

[georgephillip]

The next step in consolidating private control over public resources is masquerading as another "Free Trade" agreement, and it's not subject to debate in congress or the "free" press.

The Transpacific Partnership is uniting Republicans and Obama; does that sound like Hope or Change?

"The TPP negotiations have been held in secret. Most people know what little they do because WikiLeaks, the document disclosure and whistle-blower website, released several chapters more than a year ago. Members of Congress also have been given limited access to briefings on the negotiations, but under strict secrecy rules that, in at least one instance recently, include the threat of imprisonment if details leak."

"No official timeframe is set on completion of the TPP, but a final agreement could come as early as July, according to Shuaihua Cheng, founder and managing director for the China arm of the nonprofit International Centre for Trade and Sustainable Development.

"Five to seven sticking points remain, but most issues have been settled at the negotiating table, an Obama administration official who was not authorized to speak for attribution told CNBC.

"'There are some important things [left in the negotiations], but nothing that could not or should not be solvable by ministers being locked up in a room for three days,' the official told CNBC. 'We think we are in the end game—we can see the light at the end of the tunnel.'"

Another "fast track" free trade swindle is the last thing the US economy needs today. Between now and Labor Day every member of congress will have to cast a vote either in favor of "fast track" or in opposition. Republicans AND Democrats alike seem to be leaning toward the former.

Was NAFTA free trade?
How many middle class jobs did that corporate lie cost? Maybe you're smart enough to know why only five of the TPP's twenty-nine chapters deals with traditional trade issues?

"The Republican victory with Herbert C. Hoover in 1928 marked the first time since the end of Reconstruction that the party had carried states of the old Confederacy; this came about chiefly because the Democratic candidate, Alfred E. Smith, was a Roman Catholic and an opponent of prohibition."

"Hoover and the Republicans were blamed for the disastrous economic depression that soon enveloped the country, and the Democrats, under Franklin Delano Roosevelt, were swept into office in 1932. The frustrated Republicans were never able to break the remarkable hold of Roosevelt and the New Deal on the electorate and regularly went down to defeat every four years, with Alfred M. Landon (1936), WendellWillkie (1940), and Thomas E. Dewey (1944).
