Quote:I should clarify...  They are not giving it the type of coverage it deserves.  MSNBC rarely speak about it.  Beck hasn't spoke about it in almost 3 weeks.  And when he does, it's for a couple minutes out of his 3 hour show.  I haven't heard Limbaugh speak of it at all, but I don't listen to him as often as I do beck.  I haven't heard any reporting on it from CNN...

 

This TPP thing is a big deal.  It gets no play when compared to other news stories out there...  That's what I meant.

 

You bring up another thing I find interesting...  You call the corporatists, in the middle...  I don't know...  I think that for the most part (especially economically) corporations and their mouth peices are right wing...  Meaning they are supply siders that think that big business should write the rules.  Some corporations may have social beliefs that lean left.  But economically, I would say they are all very conservative concerning free trade, no regulations, etc...  

 

Wouldn't you agree?

 

For the record, Rush talks about it several times a weak and Hannity talks about it several times a week.  

 

To your earlier point, the idea of corrupt government versus anarchy is a false choice that we should reject.  The solution is an informed electorate, but that requires work on the part of the masses and that's not the train track we're on currently.  the sad truth is that these people get away with this because they know that there are far more people concerned with caitlyn jenner than there are that even know that the trans pacific partnership is.  

 

Also, this is textbook fascism.  This is the government promoting a select few private entities to carry out the social agendas of the collective state in exchange for essential monopolies. 

 

If the reports are true then we are potentially relinquishing our national sovereignty and becoming subjects to some new union that will reduce us to an also rand country.  The world's great super power surrendering to no one, just to get along.
