The 12 countries are: Australia, Brunei, Canada, Chile, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore, the United States, and Vietnam.

You don't think Pres Obama will sell the 99% down the river. What are you basing that on? So far everything we've see that's in it is terrible. This is his show so why would he let all this bullcrap be put in if he didn't want it? And remember there were those that swore that Pres Clinton wouldn't sell us down the river, but he did.

This agreement is being put together by major corporations that do not have the best interest of the 99% in mind. There is no reason to expect it to do anything other than help the corporations. I have asked my Senators to tell me the benefits for the working person and the best they had is that the government (you and me) will retrain those put out of work do to the agreement. I don't find that reassuring at all. Training for what jobs? Jack In The Box counter workers?

No one has provided any reasons that will help the 99% in this Agreement.
