Papantonio: Obama MUST Drop the TPP

President Obama wants to fast-track approval of the Trans Pacific Partnership, which is a massive giveaway to corporations looking to skirt the law. There is a growing coalition of members of Congress from BOTH sides of the political aisle to abort the project, but Obama still wants to move forward. Ring of Fire’s Mike Papantonio talks about this with Lori Wallach, the director of Public Citizen’s Global Trade Watch.

This just go's to show how a good leader can get some MAJOR things incredibly wrong. Mr. President i do not support you on the TPP, please put more effort into the ACA and get it going smooth like we all know you will, and please abandon your parallel support of big business with it's absolute invasive stranglehold on our basic freedoms. Stop allowing them to erode our rights as a nation of people who support the constitution when all they want to do is see you help them burn it.
