Cudos, but we should we or rather do we want to be reliant on:
https://wikileaks.org etc.?
Concerning the coverning laws of the EU/US/ASIA or whatever the current
name of cartels may be, I was under the impression that we are living
under a controlled democracy (as in rule of the people)? With laws and
stuff?
How is in charge (rhetorical question)?

Secret Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement (TPP)
Today, 13 November 2013, WikiLeaks released the secret negotiated
draft text for the entire TPP (Trans-Pacific Partnership) Intellectual
Property Rights Chapter. The TPP is the largest-ever economic treaty,
encompassing nations representing more than 40 per cent of the world’s
GDP. The WikiLeaks release of the text comes ahead of the decisive TPP
Chief Negotiators summit in Salt Lake City, Utah, on 19-24 November
2013. The chapter published by WikiLeaks is perhaps the most
controversial chapter of the TPP due to its wide-ranging effects on
medicines, publishers, internet services, civil liberties and
biological patents. Significantly, the released text includes the
negotiation positions and disagreements between all 12 prospective
member states.
The TPP is the forerunner to the equally secret US-EU pact TTIP
(Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership), for which President
Obama initiated US-EU negotiations in January 2013. Together, the TPP
and TTIP will cover more than 60 per cent of global GDP.
