Related: About this forumIS BERNIE HELPING HILLARY HIDE THE WTO GATS PROBLEM WITH TBTF BANKS?
he should let her husbands WTO be exposed as the problem, not cover for them!
What i mean is, both of them know whats going on with GATS and the TBTF banks- its an international scandal-
Bernie should just come out and say it. We're all grown ups here. Why is he pretending, like Obama did with Elizabeth Warren, that the WTO problem doesnt exist?

I've posted a great deal more recently, most are from Public Citizen which is the only US NGO really investigating this.
Please don't misunderstand what I am saying here. i just think that the WTO GATS rock NEEDS to be lifted up and the sun needs to shine in there.

(2,397 posts)The General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS) is a treaty of the World Trade Organization (WTO) that entered into force in January 1995 as a result of the Uruguay Round negotiations. The treaty was created to extend the multilateral trading system to service sector, in the same way the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) provides such a system for merchandise trade.
All members of the WTO are parties to the GATS. The basic WTO principle of most favoured nation (MFN) applies to GATS as well. However, upon accession, members may introduce temporary exemptions to this rule.
