(12,655 posts)so i read the thoughts of others like you have, and because my own economy chops are quite lacking, i rely at least partially on the assessments of others. reich is someone i trust a lot on these issues, always have. i have also looked at some of the language of the tpp. my own conclusion is that whatever net negative previous trade agreements have had or may have had on our jobs, the tpp is orders of magnitude more intense, and carries significant limitations for legal remedies of trade or consumer concerns. like you, i need to study further, but i am confident that in my case anyway, further study will only increase my distrust and concern.
i hope it is discussed more on the campaign. i suspect it will be an issue in the ge, unless repubs make the ge all about isis, which they will try to do.
