Trading Away Your Freedom by Foreign Entanglements

April 20, 2015

Author of the book “International Merger by Foreign Entanglements,” JBS CEO Arthur R. Thompson offers an in-depth analysis of the sovereignty-destroying agenda behind so-called free trade agreements. His presentation includes discussion of Trade Promotion Authority and two free trade agreements currently being negotiated by the United States: the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) and the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP).

Just as trade agreements were used to bring about the economic and political integration of 28 nations under the European Union, the TPP and TTIP trade partnerships would be used to bring about the economic and political integration of the United States with eleven (initially) Pacific Rim nations and the European Union, respectively.

President Obama is asking Congress for “fast-track” Trade Promotion Authority (TPA) so that he can complete negotiations and sign a “free trade” agreement with eleven Pacific Rim nations known as the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) that threatens American jobs and, and more importantly, surrenders American independence to international authority.

A TPA bill, S. 995, was introduced in the Senate on April 16, 2015. A vote on the TPA bill is expected sometime in May or June.

Since nearly everyone agrees that the TPP and TTIP partnership agreements can’t be approved by Congress without a TPA bill in place to force Congress to vote these agreements up or down with no amendments allowed, we must stop the TPA bill.

That’s why you should contact your representative and senators in Congress in strong opposition to TPA immediately. Phone your representative at 202-225-3121 and your senators at 202-224-3121. Phone calls have the most impact.
