THANKS yet again Dennis Kucinich. This certainly is a VERY POSITIVE turn of events, but we of course shouldn't become TOO complacent. There still is T-TIP waiting in the wings, not to mention NAFTA and the WTO. The driving force behind these agreements is our monetary system, reform for which has already been submitted - not once but TWICE - before Congress in the form of the exceptionally well designed NEED Act by former Congressman Kucinich, co-signed by John Conyers. We all MUST study the connection between our current monetary system and "free" trade or we will be doomed to failure yet again. This is my attempt based on the works of the late Charles Walters, founder of Acres USA and himself a trained economist: http://www.thetwofacesofmoney.com/index.php/Site/FreeTradeAndOurMoneySystem
Withdrawing from the deal will be welcome news to progressive Democrats and labor groups.
