Carper’s views of TPP Fast Track are NSFW
The 12-nation Trans-Pacific Partnership is a well known steaming pile of shit. Tom Carper says that the TTP gives him a huge boner because f#cking the American worker in the ass is what his paymasters sent him to Congress to do. And by GOD he is gonna do it. (paraphrasing)
That said, the NJ’s Nicole Gaudiano gives Claire Snyder-Hall the last word in this write up.
“Fast Track and TPP are bad for American workers, but they are also bad for democracy,” Claire Snyder-Hall of Delaware Americans for Democratic Action said in a statement. “TPP erodes the ability of the American people to make laws for themselves. Laws passed to protect American workers, the environment, local industries, or food safety could be deemed unfair trade practices under TPP, and there will be nothing we can do about it.”
TPP is the worst thing. To even be considered. Another tool for corporate and big business to sell the American worker down the drain! I come from a union family of 2 generations. Grandparents who fought for steel unions and organizing them. Parents who were union organizers and workers. I myself a union member teacher. I have marched and fought for wages and conditions to improve. Car per and Obama are trying to destroy everything that has been gained and struggled for.
Bill Clinton really screwed things up for the working man and US based manufacturing with NAFTA. But the 1% got an unfathomable windfall, so it no wonder Carper is pushing for this. It is NAFTA on steroids.
