Hey George: Ever wonder what Corporatist Supreme Court Judges will mean for the US and the world?

In your MTP interview you brought up the importance of Supreme Court judges. In thinking about those judges, have you ever wondered what appointing Corporatist Supreme Court Judges will mean to the people of the U.S. and the world (and to the future of our planet)?

We have trade agreements in waiting which are much more than mere trade agreements. The will cede U.S. sovereignty to multinational corporations and allow them to make important laws meaningless (e.g., environmental protections, workers rights). Nothing like doing an end run around hard fought for gains for the people and our planet!

And when those agreements get challenged, and they will, who will hear those challenges? The Supreme Court Judges! And what type of nominations do you think a Corporatist Democratic or a Corporatist Republican will appoint? Since you are not a stupid man George, I'm sure you can figure it out.

And in case you are tempted to buy into the bullshit that trade is intended to lift up the masses worldwide (though I do realize ignorance is bliss) for your reading pleasure.

Grow up or perhaps consider voting for the Socialist nominee for President
