Free Trade Faces Fallout From U.S. Elections

This whole convoluted, political mess reminds me of somebody singing his death song, hoping for another life.

The sooner this free trade fraud dies, the better for all sides.

I'm enclosing the copy of a letter I sent to our local paper on Friday morning. We're having some serious problems here from business friendly government cutbacks, privatization, huge pine beetle devastation and forced depopulation, expecting the importation of Mexican and other slave labour, under the "free movement of business persons" to become "more competitive"

Dear Mr.Editor,

THE FRAUD OF “WEALTH CREATION”

All forms of life depend on the conversion of resources into energy, for every second of their existence, therefore, wealth is the temporary control of energy.

As resources, or the energy obtained from them, can not be created, neither can wealth. It can only be taken from other sectors, the environment, and the future. Neither can real, or physical, costs be cut, only transferred, but the sordid facts can be temporarily hidden with monetary manipulations. We're now paying the costs of phoney wealth creation 50, or 150 years ago. Monetary figures are not realities, but often violence induced, temporary perceptions, therefore their use in economic calculations is misleading. Ultimately, the lowest, real costs, will always be the lowest resource/energy inputs into any product, or service. Climate change, environmental destruction, pollution, poverty, are the transferred, real costs, unaccounted to mislead the public into a false sense of euphoria.

Money is an asset to the holder, but a liability to the legal issuer, which is the state. The right of virtually unlimited money creation is now in the hands of the deregulated banks. The banks are collecting interests, while transferring the liability for the convertibility of that imaginary capital on the public, through ecological and human destruction, the confiscation of properties, resources, and lives, to feed the artificial persons of corporate shares. Our governments are now engaged in a string of secret negotiations, 95% of people never heard of, under the acronyms of super NAFTA, GATS, TILMA, SPP, NAU, FTAA and Amero, for the sale of Canada, and the replacement of democracy with “rules based trading regimes”, a form of fascism, stripping societies and nations of their decision making powers and replacing them with the insatiable profit demands of ruling classes.

The propagandistic denial of environmental destruction; the secret sellouts of valuable public properties; the Deni House mess; the planned closing of 8 schools; the destruction of real private enterprise; of the family farm and ranching system; the GM seeds and foods; the control of the world's food supply by a handful of multinationals, operating under hundreds of names; the depopulation of rural areas, are all tied together with the rope of, so called, “neoclassical market economics” a fraudulent, sugar coated form of Soviet style collectivization, using imaginary money, instead of bayonets, to cut down wages and producers, while raising store prices every day, stealing people blind at both ends, in the name of “prosperity, through competition”.

These secret treaties are designed to turn humanity into pigs, fighting for scraps thrown at them by aristocracies, while calling it “the competitive equilibrium of the marketplace”. The pseudo religious justification for this, the biggest crime wave in human history, is being taught in our universities as the “science of economics”, legalizing more environmental destruction, destitution and death, going on today, than both World Wars and the death camps of Stalin, Hitler and Mao combined. A child starves to death every five seconds, somewhere, but the stock and money markets roar, the multinational CEOs collect tens of millions every year, so, in the minds of our politicians, everything is A-OK. .

The money is there and the democrats like it as much as the republicans. The invasion of Iraq is about money. To much spent with poor returns. Canada is not a loosing proposition. Americans stand to make a lot from the deal. The Democrats may demand a higher return though.
