Stop the TPP

As far as labor is anti-fascist, they are most reliable, as in this effort to derail Sen. Wyden's bid to further sink USA into fascism.
While this was occurring Wikileaks published the text of the Investment Chapter of the Trans-Pacific Partnership. This chapter allows corporations to sue governments in a tribunal that supersedes the  US judicial system when a law passed in the public interest would undermine their profits. Corporations can sue for the profits they were expecting to make in rigged trade tribunals where corporate lawyers play the role of judges and there is no right to appeal or take the case to another court for review. Even the US Supreme Court cannot overrule the corporate judges.
The problem is the commanding heights of labor and other nominally anti-fascist entities will sell out at the drop of a hat.  They are not against any of these plans, they are only against no rent stream for them from the game, no seat at the table.

Get rid of usury as a government backed practice in USA, and end this fascism.

Feel free to forward this by email to three of your friends.
