While all eyes were on the Government Shutdown, Obama was Secretly Signing Away US Sovereignty. Bank Accounts to be Taxed
OBAMA SECRETLY SIGNING AWAY U.S. SOVEREIGNTY

Shock plan regulates food, medicine, financial markers, Internet freedom



Despite the government shutdown, the Obama administration has continued secret negotiations to complete what is known as the Trans-Pacific Partnership, or TPP.

The expansive plan is a proposed free-trade agreement between the U.S., Australia, Brunei, Chile, Canada, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore and Vietnam

The agreement would create new guidelines for everything from food safety to fracking, financial markets, medical prices, copyright rules and Internet freedom.

The TPP negotiations have been criticized by politicians and advocacy groups alike for their secrecy. The few aspects of the partnership leaked to the public indicate an expansive agenda with highly limited congressional oversight.

A New York Times opinion piece previously called the deal the “most significant international commercial agreement since the creation of the World Trade Organization in 1995.”

Last week, the White House website released a joint statement with the other proposed TPP signatories affirming “our countries are on track to complete the Trans-Pacific Partnership negotiations.”

“Ministers and negotiators have made significant progress in recent months on all the legal texts and annexes on access to our respective goods, services, investment, financial services, government procurement, and temporary entry markets,” the White House said.

The statement did not divulge details of the partnership other than to suggest a final TPP agreement “must reflect our common vision to establish a comprehensive, next-generation model for addressing both new and traditional trade and investment issues, supporting the creation and retention of jobs and promoting economic development in our countries.”

IMF Proposal to Tax Bank Deposits

A report by Agence France-Presse, the International Monetary Fund strongly suggests countries tax the rich to fix deficit, is a caveat for a bigger risk.

The IMF has set off shockwaves this week in Washington by suggesting countries fight budget deficits by raising taxes.

In its Fiscal Monitor report, subtitled "Taxing Times", the Fund advanced the idea of taxing the highest-income people and their assets to reinforce the legitimacy of spending cuts and fight against growing income inequalities."

Re: While all eyes were on the Government Shutdown, Obama was Secretly Signing Away US Sovereignty. Bank Accounts to be Taxed
The wealthiest 1% already pay something like 80% of all taxes. How about our bloated government shrinks to a more manageable size and cuts spending? Last year an analysis was done ( i think by the CBO, but i don't recall exactly) regarding taxing anyone who makes over 250k per year at 100%. The taxes collected would only run the government for 8 weeks. Cutting spending is the only way out of this freaking mess.

Re: While all eyes were on the Government Shutdown, Obama was Secretly Signing Away US Sovereignty. Bank Accounts to be Taxed
Let's be clear: the Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement is not about "free trade", it's about corporations subverting national sovereignty.

This neoliberal final solution will disembowel government by and for the people and replace it with "trade tribunals" whose only care is to decide the squabbles as to who gets the money.

So it's hardly surprising former exchange trader Key was bolstered into the chairman's seat in this week's talks, finding ways to sell out New Zealand for cold cash is his stock in trade. And with the TPPA, he's hit the jackpot.

See, the TPPA is a series of (secret) agreements binding a hodge-podge of Pacific-Rim countries to its provisions forever and a day, with no parliamentary let alone popular examination or oversight and no opportunity to renege once committed.

Re: While all eyes were on the Government Shutdown, Obama was Secretly Signing Away US Sovereignty. Bank Accounts to be Taxed
The Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement ("TPP") is a free trade agreement currently being negotiated by nine countries: The United States, Australia, Brunei Darussalam, Chile, Malaysia, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore, and Vietnam.

Although the TPP covers a wide range of issues, this site focuses on the TPP's intellectual property (IP) chapter.

The TPP suffers from a serious lack of transparency, threatens to impose more stringent copyright without public input, and pressures foreign governments to adopt unbalanced laws.

Many of the same special interests that pushed for legislation like SOPA and PIPA have special access to this forum—including privileged access to the text as well as US negotiators.

Bank accounts are already taxed. You are taxed on everything you own or buy. If all taxes were rolled into an income tax and nothing else you would discover the average person in the US pays roughly 65%.

A group of people I used to work with summarized all the taxes we pay, hidden, and passed down. It's over 65%.
