Sam Seder: Why the Tea Party Should Care About the TPP

Why haven't we heard anything from Tea Party members about the Trans-Pacific Partnership? This is the closest their fears of a 'one world government' have ever come to being reality...

1. I think part of it is that the captains of industry who own the Tea Party don't want that

I think another is that they know that we care about it, and they are naturally opposed to anything we want.

3. Lots of them care. They have just been distracted by Obamacare and the shutdown.

Here are some examples from Tea-Party outlets,

Daily Paul:

If the tea party folks decide to back off repealing Obamacare and shutting the government down this year, I bet they will focus a great deal on the TPP.
