You are surprised about what part of this? What part are you finding unbelievable? this is being rammed through with the exact same cavalier force as NAFTA and GATT even though some 80% of the public opposed those 2 agreements. No, the modern trade agreements are the spoils of purchasing Obama and every other supporter. Read the site in my tag line if you're really interested...I'm guessing you are choosing to close your eyes and see candy canes and unicorns just as the corporatists know you will and don't intend to educate yourself about this..
