New Leak On Trade Negotiations

If you like NAFTA, you're going to love TPP - TransPacific Partnership, a trade agreement being negotiated quite secretly by the Obama administration with eight less developed Pacific nations.  Terms of the deal were leaked to the press yesterday and they indicate that the US would put foreign investors and traders on privileged terms in dealing with US companies.  It would also almost certainly drive up drug prices in this country.  This deal is in contradiction to Obama's promises during the 2008 election campaign.  The administration is not talking.
