61. You're willing for the economy to be decimated,

Tue Feb 10, 2015, 03:00 PM

Feb 2015

for rich multinational corporations having more say on a country's economic, labor, and environmental practices than the government, by a treaty that most of the people voting on it have never even seen? You're willing to have a treaty that's 10 times worse than NAFTA, which has killed 47 million American jobs and empoverished Mexican workers worse than they were before, just so Obama and the multi-national corporations have a win?

Sorry, think our livlihoods and those of working class Americans, are more important than Obama's ego to most of us. I think our environmental regulations shouldn't be subject to the profits of the multi-national corporations, not should wages or a drugs cost.

Cult of Personality is sadly alive and well on this board.
