I would hope that everyone that has an interest in this country read this important wirting by Mr. Chomsky. It is time to start yelling our heads off before its too late!!
"The trade agreements override the rights of workers, consumers, and the future generations who cannot "vote" in the market on environmental issues. They help keep the public "in its place." These are not necessary features of such agreements, but they are natural consequences of the great successes of the past years in reducing democracy to empty forms, so that the vile maxim of the masters can be pursued without undue interference."
