What are comrades' opinions on the Trans-Pacific Partnership? This deal - which has been described as "NAFTA on steroids" - would be disastrous for the working class of the 11-12 potential signatory countries. Owing to the provision where corporations could overturn national laws that hinder profit, there has been some opposition (at least in the USA) on a nationalist / patriotic basis, but not much from socialists.

I'm aware that it's kind of stalled right now, but I believe it will pick back up again after the November elections.

It's another attempt of capitalist to conquest more and more markets. Nothing else.
