I mean, if you're for the TPP then we need to take note that a big gripe about the TPP is that we will essentially allow for offshoring, cutting exports, etc which equals significantly less tax revenue, benefiting only the powerful elite, just like Diane Hendricks. Where do you think they are going to make up that lost tax revenue? Well, if I could so infer, it would likely hit 'us' more than the wealthy - but really, who knows because the actual details from team Clinton are sparse/lacking/nonexistant/insert synonym here...
