This is a good example of the Marxist \ Corporatist agenda.

It's worldwide.

"National" sovereignty is not in their vocabulary.

In view of the current abhorrent conditions in this country, one thing is certain; this country is mired in corruption.

Once the right politicians, power players and banksters are identified and tagged, it is going to end in tears. And ropes. And lampposts.

They just don´t know it yet.

You do not understnd what is happening. The politicians are just puppets to draw your attention. It does not matter how many of them you hang.

Screw everything about this.

www.huffingtonpost.com...



Under the agreement currently being advocated by the Obama administration, American corporations would continue to be subject to domestic laws and regulations on the environment, banking and other issues. But foreign corporations operating within the U.S. would be permitted to appeal key American legal or regulatory rulings to an international tribunal. That international tribunal would be granted the power to overrule American law and impose trade sanctions on the United States for failing to abide by its rulings.


I voted for him once and I will do everything I can to keep him from winning again. He's not a Democrat - he's Corporatist.

The new leak follows substantial controversy surrounding the secrecy of the talks, in which some members of Congress have complained they are not being given the same access to trade documents that corporate officials receive.

Wow, very troubling. Congress better wake up right now!

I do find it interesting Huffington presented it that way. A pleasant surprise.

Kind of fits in with Obama giving money to an oil company that was very profitable and needed no money so they could drill offshore, while at the same time stopping drilling by US companies.

Perhaps Obama is trying to bring us down on purpose and is a dangerous ideologue?

While this is in the works, he will go around campaigning on making America strong again and growing American business, and people will eat it up like they did with "hope and change"

It never ends with the American Governments Imperialism does it?

God I wish America would leave the Pacific alone and stop.

What the hell is wrong with them? Our part of the world finally becomes the new power and now the United States muscles in with its military and diplomats. Its sickening.

edit- I doubt anyone will have the guts to make an appeal because if they did, they know that they would go on the United States' # list. And people wonder why so many around the world have a problem with the United States. They even try to screw their 'friends'. This kind of thing is why so many South Koreans hate the United states Government for example..

Did you even read the OP or do you just hate America so much you twist everything into that limited framework. How is allowing another country and foreign companies to OVERRULE American law on US soil a sign of American Imperialism?

All government does is pander to corporations, and it started long before President Obama. He's just another puppet in a long-line handpicked to do the bidding of the corporate masters. People need to open their eyes to the true reality of the matter and get away from these "party loyalties."

What Karl Marx has anything to do with all this ??
Seriously people need to stop thinking Obama is a socialist or marxist.
Everyone is bought up by a corporation how can this be socialism or marxism ?
For all that matter anyways, everyone is corrupted.
People doesn't mind cause they know they would act the same as any corrupted officials.
Ain't gonna change overnite untill maybe we tag them with the name of their sponsors like a Nascar driver.

This has all the markings of a strategic corporate takeover.

I foresee a future where corporations rule. A cyberpunk dystopia is what's in store for us all. Anon is set up to be a major opponent of corporate tyranny, so it might not be a bad idea to start acquainting yourselves with the art of hacking.

Wow, check out page 7 of the leaked agreement/contract, bottom of the page.
Leaked Agreement

Treatment in case of Armed Conflict or civil strife.

This is a goddamn corporate contract, and that paragraph binds one 'party' to another to "eff you, pay me". No matter what. Imagine the benefits and possibilites in attacks one could gain from corporate sabatoge.

...This is freaking huge.


I wish I could copy and paste highlights of this contract. This is absolutely insane. There is so much shady shhh on here its mind blowing.

I'm not fluent in my legal jargon, but it looks like it's saying (to the government), "If our assets are seized, destroyed, sabotaged or altered in any way so as to incur losses on our part, you must pay us back in full for all losses, immediately."

Is that what it's saying?

Holy crap.

I have been saying that too, and so have a lot of others. The parallels with an earlier time are sometimes uncanny. Traitors all. You know what to do. Read it HERE, and HERE.Learn it, know it, live it. This is our land, paid for in blood. What did they do, save fund both sides? Now they see US, We the People, as the enemy! Unfrackingbelievable

Considering the legal shopping capabilities that multinational corporations have had for quite some time it is good to see some international accountability enter the scene. As for how much resources, objectivity and capability an international tribunal has time will tell. Just because multinational corporations are not subject to National law does not mean they are free from International law. A more common framework and simplification of standards and practice is needed to reign these massive self regulating entities in as they have had to many places and too much complexity to hide in.

I acknowledge the common fears that many posters have, but lets face it these multinationals own your ass. An international approach is needed to hold these bastards down and inject some common sense into them. I agree that it could back fire as even more power is given to these stateless entities, but as a concept it is worth a shot. Hopefully over time it will make a positive difference. The messy and endless legal and complex jurisdictional issues are only having a minor, if any impact.
