Disappointed' in Obama, Sanders Calls on Top Dems to Drop Lame Duck TPP Push

[Egnever]

46. From what the opponents say...

This is exactly why I don't take these posts seriously.

The majority of. People posting how bad the tpp is only do so because they have heard how bad it is based on nothing more than opinion.

Forget that sexy headlines get clicks no matter how full of shit the article is.

Thing is I actually wondered why Obama would push something so seemingly awful.

Till the actual text was released it was like shadow boxing. Because the claims of it's evilness spread based on snippets of text supposedly from the tpp describing the corporate give away.

Then a funny thing happened and the text was released and almost over night the stories mostly disappeared..

I found that incredibly odd so I sat down one evening and started reading it... I had trouble finding any of the nonsense posted about it. It is full of legal language and is not the easiest read but it pretty quickly became apparent that most of those articles were bullshit.

So then I started reading the studies that were being done on its predicted effect and once Again the doom and gloom time after time came out just untrue in the models they ran on it.

One would think since the text is public it would be pretty easy to write out an article that says hey look at this section right here it is full of evil incarnations read them yourself.. The common theme in all the articles I have read on it so far is none of them do that.

It all relies on well so and so claims it would be bad... Before the actual text was released... Blah blah

So bottom line I am open to hearing why it's so bad but the text is available point it out just don't say it is bad based on your opinion and expect me to buy it.

I watched too much uninformed bs over the ACA like death panels to take opinion pieces at face value any more. Especially when they are a vehicle to bash Obama.
