So $h!thead is planning to commit the USA without giving the citizens notice or chance to comment.
We wish. Only thing that MAY stop the deal, the Trumpster gets elected.
A HUGE favor being done for Patriotic Conservatives by.......GREENPEACE??
Irony: The Mark of Quality Literature.
“detective wrote: Another bad trade deal from the Obama administration.”
Why is this a “bad trade deal” when the article states: “For instance, the papers show that the US is looking to weaken the EUs precautionary principle that governs how potentially harmful products are sold, Greenpeace says. The US has much weaker regulation that aims to minimise rather than avoid risks, and that same less strict regime could come to the UK and Europe under the deal.” ?
While other parts may be detrimental to the US, this appears to open EU markets to US goods. That would increase jobs.
For instance, the papers show that the US is looking to weaken the EUs precautionary principle that governs how potentially harmful products are sold, Greenpeace says. The US has much weaker regulation that aims to minimise rather than avoid risks, and that same less strict regime could come to the UK and Europe under the deal.
If the EU made further changes to similar regulations, it would have to inform the US and corporations based there, according to the documents. American companies would then be able to have the same input into EU regulation as European ones do.
OK so based on that snippet alone it looks as if what the U.S. is trying to do is level the playing field and not require U.S. exporters to meet a higher regulatory requirement than they need to meet at home, and which foreign exports to the U.S. enjoy. Isn't that the very kind of renegotiation of trade deals that Trump is promising? So if it could derail something like the TTIP in Europe then how does Trump expect to do better?
