The simple calculus of the TPP: Corporations over states:
"The TPP models itself as a “21st century” trade agreement. This means that in addition to eliminating tariffs — the traditional focus of free trade agreements — TPP parties will agree to limit the scope of government regulation in important policy areas such as financial markets, the environment and intellectual property. The ostensible goals of such rules are to protect the rights of foreign companies and ensure an “even playing field” for domestic and foreign firms."
