So, how do the Fat Cats make a terrible trade deal like the TPP even worse? Make it "FAST TRACK" so debate is limited, and changes are zero and oh yeah, only the 400 huge corporations can give input and really know what this horrible mess is really about...of course congresspeople can sit by themselves for a short time and read parts they ask for without taking notes nor the ability to even mention what they read. Really. Holy fud, this ain't the USA in our Constitution. This TPP/FastTrack has to be stopped NOW before it's too late. Share this, discuss with folks, write your newspaper and US Reps, or call them now.
