We're on a roll: Comcast-TW down. Time to defeat Fast Track.

[Faryn Balyncd]

And defeating Fast Track would be equivalent to defeating a dozen or more Comcast-Time Warner deals, with implications for:


(1) worldwide generic drug availability and affordability,
(2) worldwide intellectual property monopolies,
(3) control of the internet,
(4) the continued ability of local governments, states, Congress, and federal agencies to carry out their constitutional duties to promote the general welfare regarding the environment, labor, health, and safety,
(5) the liability of taxpayers for legal fees and judgements in sovereign Investor-State-Dispute-Resolution tribunals,
and,
(6) the adverse consequences related to every "trade" deal proposed by whoever happens to be president for the next 6 years, which would be fast tracked by the Hatch-Wyden-Ryan Fast Track bill



So, we've won a big one.

Let's win the monster. (It will be the biggest, & most difficult battle of the year in both the Senate and the House, but we've got an excellent team willing to fight, and the support of the solid majority of American voters.)


Let's keep our morale. Win or lose, keeping our morale, and fiercely defending American values against the corporatists, will increase the odds of victory, and will, regardless of outcome, cement the knowledge of the solid majority of Americans of exactly who is on their side fighting for them to win.
