Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) trade deal

APRIL 19, 2015

Lori Wallach, Director of Public Citizen’s Global Trade Watch, talked about recently introduced legislation introduced that would give President Obama special authority to expedite, also known as “fast track,” negotiations on the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal.

TPP is an example of a power grab by the power elite psychopaths for several reasons, not the least of which is that corporations will be able to sue governments for estimated losses of profit due to governmental regulations (example:  environmental regulations).  This is called the investor-state dispute settlement clause of the TPP.
