5. They don't even really try to hide it.

There's a revolving door between appointments by and staff of Congress and the White House and the major financial firms like Goldman Sachs or JP Morgan.

There are some good people in Congress, but there are also far too many whose interest in governing is merely to maintain enough of a consumer market to keep the money flowing into shareholder pockets.

I do take part of that back - they're doing all they can to hide the details of the TPP until they can lock it down, because it's just too incredibly blatant in placing mulitnational corporate concerns ahead of those of the general public.
