I can’t believe the discord over this. Our elected representatives are conspiring under the cloak of secrecy to pass legislation we are not permitted to read.

Why?

Does anyone really think this is not being made public because it’s good for us?

Do kids hide good report cards from their parents? Do corporations try to hide good earnings on quarterly reports? In the political arena, good news is never hidden. In fact, bad news is almost never hidden. So what’s in TPP?

I’m guessing it’s more of that “You have to get on the train to find out where it’s going” BS.

What’s worse is that all the people who ranted and raved about the secrecy of Obamacare, and rightfully so, are now cool with the secrecy of the trade bill. It’s freaking unbelievable. And yet as you can see here, it is reality.

I agree.

Why would the GOP want to give unfettered authority to negotiate a huge trade deal to the guy who is negotiating the Iran Nuclear surrender? Like they think he will do better on trade. No he won’t. It will be a disaster just like everything else he touches. Guess who will suffer? The American public.
