“What has been released about this bill says that the President cannot make any trade agreement without congress ratifying it.”
And therein lies the problem...”what has been released”. If the TPP is soooooooooo good for us, then why the secrecy? Sort of like we “have to pass it to know what’s in it”....where have we heard that before?
This stinks to high heaven and those Senators who voted to allow “fast track” status are setting up the Congress to be thrown on the scrap heap of history. This is just wrong on so many levels. Especially with this present administration, though I don’t know if there is any difference any longer, legislation and trade agreements should not be done in “secrecy”! Raises a huge red flag.
Exactly right ripnbang. Why people don’t understand that is beyond understanding.
Astroaddict just because history has shown that Ross Perot was right about that “giant sucking sound” doesn’t mean that anyone bought anything. It only shows that we are not willing to take a chance on a secret trade agreement that could lead the that Giant Sucking Sound II.
