Trans-Pacific Partnership negotiated in secret

[midnight]

2003 entire draft text was released,but this year's negotiations were not. However 600 Corporate advisors did have access to this text because they helped write it. Congress want's some say in this before they are just given an up and down vote..

2. I guess it's time for us to decide on our preference...

Park bench or packing box...

3. "best interests of their country..."

is code for the elites i.e a fraction of the wealthiest 1%. As an aside, one might wonder just how many of these people, the ones who make the major financial and political decisions, attended either Harvard, Princeton of Yale at one time or another and received degrees in either law, business administration or political science.

4. I get a good feeling about this...

...the same good feeling I get whenever I think about storing a lit road-flare in my crotch.

5. This trade agreement is packaged like......

...a sub-prime derivative. Hardly anyone knows what's in 'em.

- And it'll most likely explode and take everyone with it. Like before.
