Thought this was a good thing to post considering the issues with Ripple. I think it helps to provide context to just what we are up against...Be strong my fellow BitWarriors...Persistence is the best resistance.

This is one of those stories that has me wondering how anyone could possibly deny that Obama and his team are not a part of the push for global dominance.
But draw your own conclusions here.
Say you are a senator or a congressman and you'd like to ascertain the details of the Trans-Pacific Partnership. Here's what you have to do:
1. You must go to a classified briefing.
2. Please leave your cell phones at the counter.
3. Oh, and while you're at it, leave your staff members at the counter, too.
4. Want to read the text of the deal? Scurry down to the basement.
5. Once you're there, you'll only be handed one section at a time.
6. Oh, and while you're reading it, someone is assigned to stand over you....and watch you.
7. Taking notes? Hand 'em over before you leave so the TPTB can see what you wrote.
8. And don't, when you leave, under any circumstances talk about this to anyone. Ever.
9. Did I mention you can't talk about this to anyone?
“It’s like being in kindergarten,” said Rep. Rosa DeLauro (D-Conn.), who’s become the leader of the opposition to President Barack Obama’s trade agenda. “You give back the toys at the end.”
Does the lack of transparency bother Obama? You decide:
Obama’s seeking a renewal of fast-track authority, which would empower him to negotiate trade deals that then go to Congress for up-or-down votes but not amendments. He says he needs that authority to complete the Trans-Pacific Partnership, a 12-country free trade agreement that he calls essential to stopping China from setting trade, labor and environmental standards in the Asia-Pacific region.
And the sheeple sleep.
At least the folks in Europe are protesting this during the election season in the UK. They're protesting big time.
What are people in America doing? WatchingTV? "
