Can I ask you all for some help? Do you want to know HOW 'the system is fixed"? [View all]
People need to learn about the various trade deals - starting with the three pending ones and GATS.
the reason they always discuss NAFTA and TPP is because others are more clearly and obviously attacks on the middle class - GATS especially, and GATS begat TiSA and TTIP is basically an attack o environmental and fracking regulations
Is there interest here to have a discussion on those specific deals?
The best places to learn about them are citizen.org and policyalternatives.ca.
You should use Google's Advanced Search to limit the search to those web sites. just plug in their names and maybe use the filetype.pdf operator, download a bunch of PDFs and scan them.
Scott Sinclair's work on policyalternatives is very good.
