Don't take my word for it, investigate..


I have incontrovertible proof that's their assertion.

Ask foreigners, what human being is most associated with the WTO around the world.

Bill Clinton.

That was the most important position either one of them took in their careers. It cost $Billions and hundreds of thousands of lives. It led to the present instability in the Gulf region and led to Isis.

Glad I could help you out.

Bill was a great President, Hillary a great Sec of State and Obama a great President until Brenie began his campaign - and then all three of them went to shit.

Bill gave the got away to Wall st.

Many said so at the time.

HRC pushed the neocon party line ad SoS.

Many said so at the time.

Obama was always Wall sts puppet

I said so BEFORE he was even the nominee.

Lack of perception on your part does no make your version of reality true. Although it did enable hijacking the Democratic party.

therefore, not a concern. Although it's easy to breeze through that document, it was a waste of time since no country is likely to file a complaint, and as author points out in unlikely event they do, SA can renounce their "obligations " under GATS.
