As far as I can tell, it&#x27;s not just the general public that&#x27;s being overlooked - every country that signs on to import the US&#x27;s terrible policies (I&#x27;m a US citizen) is giving up future sovereignty. This boggles the mind. Governments of today are signing away the sovereign rights of governments of tomorrow to establish the rule of law as they see fit.<p>I&#x27;m not a New World Order conspiracy theorist, but am I misreading the impact on democratic societies to govern themselves that this represents?<p>And hey, if the US can export this set of corporate-protectionism laws to other democracies, do you really think they&#x27;ll stop with the TPP?
