Follow the Money - The Trans-Pacific Partnership Payoff

All through the 2016 election campaign we have heard a lot about the Trans Pacific Partnership trade agreement.

The whole thing was shrouded in mystery and secrecy during the negotiations.

The two mainstream candidates (Hillary and Trump) have expressed concerns and Trump seems to be against the TPP and Hillary was all for it some years back and has since claimed to be against most of the TPP.

Well here we have a breakdown of donors (Clinton Foundation, Hillary paid speeches, etc.) and how they may actually be in favor of the TPP.

Many of the donors have actively lobbied in favor of the TPP.

So why should we believe a Candidate's verbal rhetoric?

The article focuses on Clinton. I wonder if Trump is getting money from the same "donors"?

Perhaps some of the companies and organizations have made donations to the Clinton Campaign as well?

That's Kool.

Big money.

I wonder who voted which way?

tpp like ttip both massively favour america, its obvious why politicians, multinationals and the rich would want it, unless you personally do lots of business with china or, have no interest in buying into european markets the average american wont be affected.

the only reason trump dosent like it is because its a bit long, which says more about his tiny mind,

it’s 5,600 pages long, so complex that nobody’s read it.
