Here is the definitive guide to the WTO. It reveals which WTO terms have led to U.S. job losses, the race to the bottom in wages, unsafe food, attacks on environmental and health laws, and burgeoning international inequality. Want to know why the WTO attracts passionate protests all over the world? Public Citizen advocates Wallach and Woodall carefully document the WTOs nine-year track record with riveting case-by-case accounts. And, trade is the least of it: this book shows how the WTO chills government actions to fight sweatshops, make life-saving drugs available, and protect endangered species- and even limits our elected governments ability to maintain policies on everything from meat inspection to media concentration.
I'm waiting for the sequel by Alan Tonelson and Pat Buchanan.
One big package, sir, It subjugates the SCOTUS to it's own jurisdiction from which there is no appeal on decision - thusly overriding the Scotus. It has been ammended a place in constitutional law without proper ammending and is a violation of the oath of office of everyone that voted for it, and helps contribute to the package deal. Treason. Amazing how everyone always wants to define down trechery - especially when they're eyeballs deep in it.
