Nafta--Just being tenacious
- Login to post comments
I know there is not a lot of interest at NB about SPP and NAU. In fact, I guess because most of the folks here are so nice, I have been ignored instead of publicly scorned. I respect the courtesy, but I must continue, from time to time, to share information that I hope will alert others.
Here is yet another article on SPP, NAFTA etal. I see my country disappearing before my eyes each day. I see most of it via the internet because the MSM will never show it.
On occasion a newspaper will publish something of interest regarding SPP, but basically SPP/NAU is ignored. This from the LA Chronicle (excerpt only):
"The results of NAFTA were not accidental," said Jeff Faux of the Economic Policy Institute early on in the conference. "In Mexico it was about getting people off the land, into the city, to become labourers in new factories. It's no surprise it actually happened."
Faux said that NAFTA was a deal among elites, a class issue from the beginning, and fighting it will require some kind of cross-border consensus on what is wrong with the agreement and how it should be changed.
While the bulk of the conference focused on NAFTA's impact on farmers and the link between U.S. trade policies and migration, there was recognition from most presenters that the SPP represents a dangerous next phase in the NAFTA saga -- one that not only privileges big business interests but locks them in through institutions like the North American Competitiveness Council, essentially privatizing public policy.
So in my mental illness and advancing senility, my mind's logic still sees a tremendous threat to our country. I am comforted to know that there are some rather well-respected and knowledgable people who believe as I do. Why they even see the illegal immigration problem as a key to what some of those mythical people I talk about have supported as a step in the direction of "wage normalization." I am so happy to see the numbers of people who are leery about SPP/NAU grow. Even though not on this site.
But then again, I am a Conspiro. I am getting senile. I just can't help myself.
PS
I ask you kindly to humor me and provide information as to why the USA and Canadian military signed a joint support treaty to control civil unrest. Perhaps to keep the Americans who are losing their jobs and homes from celebrating their joy too widely???
This description, believe it or not, from a teen age blog site. (there is hope for some of our youth.
"On February 14 2008, the president of the USA and Canada’s prime minister met secretly to sign a treaty basically guaranteeing that there will be no problems with “civil unrest” in the future.
The treaty says that if the USA has any problems with “civil unrest” that Canada’s military will come down and help our military out, and if Canada has any problems with “civil unrest” then we will help them with our military.
Senate’s (or whatever Canada has) in both countries were furious when they heard about the treaty, especially since they were not notified about ANY of it until now. Canada is upset because it does not want to give us any military help, and actually they are not to keen on the whole North American Union thing anyways.
Does this not scream police state? Our government (and Canada’s) has basically guaranteed that if we simple citizens try to protest and fight for freedom that we will have not just one, but TWO armies ready to arrest us. I will NOT be going to any rallies or protests anytime soon with that promise.
Just thought you should know about the new step towards police state and New World Order,"
Right on kiddo. One day, if there is an America left, you will be a leader.
