those protesters are in other countries.
CAFTA is beneficial to the corporate elites and will hurt poorer countries. Wonder who instigated these protest marches in favor of CAFTA?
Common Dreams had an article today entitled:
Global Bully Goes to GuatemalaThere's something profoundly disturbing -- sickening, really -- about watching a bully at work.
You feel either complicit, or powerless, or both.
The global bully, the United States, has just coerced Guatemala, its latest victim, into repealing an important law to lower the price of pharmaceuticals and promote generic competition. The U.S. ambassador to Guatemala acknowledged that the Guatemalan law was intended to advance public health objectives. But, no matter, he said -- U.S. commercial interests in the form of Big Pharma demanded that the law go.
