Why I am on the fence about TPP.

[BlueCaliDem]

1. President Obama seeks to globalize rights for workers. Currently, the deck is stacked against us.

Multinational corporations are offshoring jobs because it's cheaper and worker's rights are unenforceable. He seeks to change that via the Trans-Pacific Partnership and via Transatlantic Trade Investment Partnership (that's being simultaneously negotiated with the EU although I hear NO complaints about those trade negotiations with Europe from prominent Democrats - and wonder why).

You can read more about the the goals that President Obama has for the TPP from someone who's been studying every aspect of it here at The People's View. Just keep your open mind as you read it and until the negotiations are finalized (which still gives Congress 90 days to vote it down, thanks to the TPA).
