I suspect most of you are aware of the disatrous TPP -
Trans-Pacific Partnership trade agreement that is being considered in
congress (and has Obama support).  But knowing about some specific
possible consequences is helpful.  Today Democracy now highlighted
some.  TPP would corporations to sue for lost profits due to
environmental regulations.

IMHO, information about TPP tends to be fraught with legalese and
complicated explanations. Here is a fairly readable explanation:
