Thanks to The Guardian for once again reporting something that the US corporate whore media won't touch.

And again, fuck Patty Murray and Maria Cantwell with the Boeing CEO's dick. Sickens me that I ever campaigned for either one of them. :puke:

They are keeping this trade agreement secret for 5 years after it comes into effect.

Corporations will get the power to sue your country if they don't like the policies of your government.

So much for Western democracy.

And the cleverest thing about it is that they have made it so boring that virtually no one is complaining about it in Europe or the US...

It's just amazing to see the US consumed with bickering over flags and fags... while Congress and the White house are marching a very controversial and far reaching trade bill through with no significant attention to speak of...

It was the same here we just had an election and no one even mentioned it.
