Do the TTIP and TPP Treaties Signal the Rise of the One World Government?

• Do the TTIP and TPP Treaties Signal the Rise of the One World Government?

  In his book, Confessions of an Economic Hit Man, John Perkins pulls back the curtain to reveal how exactly the globalization machinery works. The signing of the TTIP and TPP treaties create the framework for a one world government.

  He went on to say: “The system of contemporary capitalist globalization operates for the exclusive benefit of a global plutocracy that has no national boundaries or loyalties. Oligarchy, (an interesting word that in western media is usually used as a propaganda technique to distinguish the “us vs them” paradigm), has been applied exclusively to the modern-day capitalist barons of Russia, is no less real in the triad of the United States, Japan, and Europe.”

  Think of the Rockefeller family in America or the Rothschild family in Europe.

  In fact, a Washington Times headline cited a Princeton university study in the headline — “America is an oligarchy, not a democracy or republic.” That article went on to note-“The U.S. government now represents the rich and powerful, not the average citizen.” The study concluded-“When a majority of citizens disagrees with economic elites and/or with organized interests, they generally lose.”

  So, here is where the TTIP and the TTP come in. TTIP, which stands for Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership, or TTP, Trans-Pacific Partnership, are regional trade and investment treaties. This doesn’t sound too bad, right? Trade and business are, in theory, enough to bring countries together, thus preventing war. As a quick reminder, here are all of the countries involved so far —

  TTIP covers: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom.

  However, to look at it another way, Wikipedia notes- “The United States and European Union together represent 60% of global GDP, 33% of world trade in goods and 42% of world trade in services. A free trade area between the two would represent potentially the largest regional free-trade agreement in history, covering 46% of world GDP.”

  The Washington Post notes- “(Pacific Rim countries) are responsible for 40 percent of the world’s GDP and 26 percent of the world’s trade.  Putting this all together, one can clearly see that by passing these treaties, America becomes the center of the world, so to speak. So, what’s so wrong with that, some might say?

  The problem is that the corporations don’t represent the people. The interests of corporations and the little guy are often at odds with one another on many different levels. Corporations have gamed the system by using their deep pockets to donate large sums of money to politicians re-election campaigns to the use of lobbyists to sway votes in their favor. As proof of this, a recent story in the New York Times noted-“(the treaties) are a blatant attack on labor, farmers, food safety, public health and even national sovereignty.” But, how can that be?  Senator Charles E. Schumer of New York, the Senate’s No. 3 Democrat said- “This is really troubling,” It seems to indicate that savvy, deep-pocketed foreign conglomerates could challenge a broad range of laws we pass at every level of government, such as made-in-America laws or anti-tobacco laws.”

  The New York Times continued by saying- “the public has no access to its contents, and even members of Congress don’t know much. (On the other hand, “cleared advisers,” mostly corporate lawyers, have full access.” See, that’s how they roll. Doing deals in the dead of the night, behind closed doors.

  As further proof of the secrecy surrounding this deal,  United States Senator Ron Wyden wrote- “The majority of Congress is being kept in the dark as to the substance of the TPP negotiations, while representatives of U.S. corporations—like Halliburton, Chevron, PHRMA, Comcast, and the Motion Picture Association of America—are being consulted and made privy to details of the agreement. […] More than two months after receiving the proper security credentials, my staff is still barred from viewing the details of the proposals that USTR is advancing. We hear that the process by which TPP is being negotiated has been a model of transparency. I disagree with that statement.” Pretty amazing, right? Even a US Senator isn’t allowed to read some of the “finer print”.
