Wait? Are you really this contrarian to believe that ANYONE that says anything that isn’t 100% to your talking points must be an apologist…I mean ‘veiled apologist’. Shall I shriek while stating I think it is bad? Will that make it any easier to understand I don’t like it? I’m sorry that I take measured approaches to things. The deal should not have been ratified, it is bad all the way around, it will be bad for everyone, HOWEVER…much the same way that conflict minerals and blood diamonds actually benefit those of us in the western world unfairly…the TPP is heavily weighted to be far more beneficial to the US than anyone else. If you have a retirement fund? You have enriched yourself with the TPP.
if you think ANY of this is in defense of this, I’m sorry that your comprehension skills are one sided. Again HORRIBLE DEAL THAT WE SHOULDN’T HAVE SIGNED. God fucking dammit…why can’t people have a conversation without folks calling each other names. Signed the veiled apologist.
