Sounds like a manoeuvre initiated in particular by Democrats representing districts with less competitive manufacturers to get tougher language in these trade agreements to protect against alleged Japanese and Chinese "currency manipulation" and "dumping". The administration is probably crafting some weasel words as we speak in order to mollify the auto, steel, and other industries and their unions in exchange for the authority to negotiate the deals. It's clearly been taking its marching orders from the stronger financial, pharmaceutical, and high tech industries in the US who have the most to gain from these agreements and who have been driving the process forward. > On Jan 30, 2014, at 10:39 AM, Dennis Brasky <dmozart1...@gmail.com> wrote: > > ====================================================================== > Rule #1: YOU MUST clip all extraneous text when replying to a message. > ====================================================================== > > > Maybe he'll wait out the November election and then push it. > > > On Thu, Jan 30, 2014 at 10:36 AM, michael perelman < > michael.perelm...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> >> It will be interesting to see how hard Obama fights against congressional >> gridlock for his free-trade treaty, given how weak he is been in fighting >> for matters in the public interest. > ________________________________________________ > Send list submissions to: Marxism@greenhouse.economics.utah.edu > Set your options at: > http://greenhouse.economics.utah.edu/mailman/options/marxism/marvgand2%40gmail.com ________________________________________________ Send list submissions to: Marxism@greenhouse.economics.utah.edu Set your options at: http://greenhouse.economics.utah.edu/mailman/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
