End NAFTA, Tell Senator Leahy

Staff Writer,  DL Mullan
NAFTA / Senate
__________________________

Senator Partick Leahy was interviewed today on CNN about President Trump's new bilateral agreement with Mexico. Stating in part that not including Canada was petty. 

Here is my rebuttal on the Senator's Contact Form:

Senator Patrick Leahy: 

“Excluding Canada, NAFTA won’t pass the Senate. I mean, the only way it passed last time was because Canada was part of it. It sort of falls in the same category, we’re all waiting for Mexico to pay for a wall. … Canada is our greatest trading partner. It comes across as petty.”

Here’s a clue, Senator Leahy: I WANT NAFTA REPEALED. SHREDDED. BURNED IN THE TORCH OF LADY LIBERTY FOR ALL THE WORLD TO SEE.

Free Trade agreements are not about economic give and take; they are about merging countries together under an unelected bureaucracy. No thank you. You can keep your superstate and the treason that is named: Globalism.

I don’t want it. No one who understands NAFTA wants the agreement to remain intact.

I realize I am not from your state, but I heard your interview and this rebuke is my answer: the only thing petty is dragging Americans and the world down into the mud just to make some spoiled imbecile richer. Globalism has destroyed lives and livelihoods.

Time for a new strategy. Instead of stomping on people how about government officials learn to bring people up. It’s always been my philosophy: if I go up, you go up. I don’t step on people to get anywhere. As Americans, we should be treating others as well as ourselves this way. It’s called respect.

Rip up NAFTA, return to bilateral agreements, and show some respect for the rest of us.

Make it happen.

Thank you,

Have Contact Form fun of your own and contact Senator Patrick Leahy of Vermont about your views about NAFTA... here

Be civil but direct. The Senate works for us. Let's respectfully remind them of that fact.

TPP, the Toilet Paper Ponzi Scheme of ALL Trade Agreements

When is a trade agreement full of excrement? When it sells out American interests, the Constitution and Bill of Rights, American workers, all for the sake of secrecy, special interest power grab, and corporate profits. 

What's worse? Our Congressional Leaders are NOT allowed to see it. That's right and President Barack Obama wants to Fast-Track the agreement before the first of the year. Those people who have seen the leaked parts of the TPP characterize it as:

Watch this video for a breakdown at Democracy Now! 

Talk about a grab bag of corporate private rules being enforced as public law. That means foreign companies and governments can sue our government for having quality standards written into legislation as well as an intellectual property gestapo that stifles any new business or creative venture: written or artistic.

Not only would thought police make a splash more and more into our culture, but medicines would have a longer gestation before generics could become available. You can see insurance premiums grow higher as food safety rules are relaxed for foreign markets to raid your grocery shelves.

With the Trans Pacific Partnership, nothing is safe.

There go your jobs.
There goes the environment protections.
No more Buy American advertisements.
Another mega bank/corporate free for all.

Haven't the American People had enough of a me, me, me political, corporate, and bank monopoly of your lives?

Want action? YOU are the action you seek. Call, write, visit... your Congressional representatives today and call the White House while you're at it.

Enough is enough.
