When "national security" conceals patent expansion & establishing sovereign tribunals... [View all]

[Faryn Balyncd]

What business does a "democracy" have bundling, behind a "national security" wall of "security" and secrecy:
(1) massive changes in patent and copyright law, and
(2)the establishment of sovereign "investor-state dispute resolution" tribunals, exempt from appeal in the courts, in which corporations may defeat environmental, labor, safety, food labeling, and other threats to their profits?


What business does a "democracy" have preventing U.S. Senators from taking notes and analyzing the fine print of such a massive law with staff and legal experts before voting to prevent amendments?


Does not the concealment of corporate backed changes to copyright, patent, environmental, labor law, and the establishing of sovereign tribunals for corporate complaints, behind a "national security" wall of secrecy, and the bundling into an package exempt from amendment. . . . transform "democracy" into parody?
