Chris Hedges, Truthdig: Any state that has the capacity to monitor all its citizenry, any state that has the ability to snuff out factual public debate through control of information, any state that has the tools to instantly shut down all dissent is totalitarian.

Das EU-US-Freihandelsabkommen: Entdemokratisierung und Sozialabbau durch die Hintertür

*Als US-Präsident Barack Obama im Februar 2013 eine ?transatlantische Handels- und Investitionspartnerschaft* (*Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership*, TTIP) zwischen der Europäischen Union und den USA ankündigte, war die öffentliche Aufmerksamkeit größer als bei solchen Themen üblich. Freihandelsabkommen scheinen meist Sache von SpezialistInnen zu sein. Und doch haben sie Konsequenzen, die mehr als aufhorchen lassen sollten?* Artikel von und bei Patrick Schreiner vom 9. Januar 2014 http://www.annotazioni.de/post/1268
