[Grem] Szavazz!!! a TTIP leállítására (TTIP - óriási hatalmat adna nagyvállalatoknak a világgazdaság terén)

[Emoke Greschik]

 Dear friends,

On the heels of our fight to stop TTIP, *twelve countries just sealed a
secret deal that gives corporations vast powers over 40% of the world’s
economy*. But* if we act fast enough, the US Congress can stop it.*

*The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) is a monster global trade deal that
could massively expand internet censorship, and is Big Pharma and
Monsanto’s dream come true.* *But to become law, each country has to ratify
it. *
*The good news is that a growing chorus of Democrats and Republicans in the
US are coming out against it, and if Congress says no, this terrible
agreement dies. *
*Avaaz can uniquely bring voices from all twelve countries and the whole
world to the debate*. *Let's give our allies in Congress the massive public
backing they need to protect our freedoms. Join the call and tell everyone*
-- our call will be delivered directly to Congress:

*The TPP will shape lives across the world from North America to Chile to
New Zealand*, but most of the text was written in secret by negotiators and
corporations, without public input. When Wikileaks revealed a portion, we
got a sampling of how bad it is:

   - If a nation bans a toxic chemical, or labels genetically modified
   foods, or tightens environmental regulations, *TPP empowers companies to
   sue governments in secret global tribunals, *run by corporate
   arbitrators. If the government loses, taxpayers could be forced to pay
   companies billions of dollars for lost profits.
   - Under TPP, pharmaceutical giants could extend their monopolies so far
   that *cheap life-saving drugs for cancer and AIDS patients could be
   prevented.*
   - The deal could criminalise those who sound the alarm on corporate
   illegal activity through a computer system.

Those are just a small part of the agreement. We have no idea what
corporate lobbyists wrote into the bulk of the treaty because *governments
have refused to release the text to the public. *While trade treaties can
be critical to a healthy global economy, representatives should never be
able to ram through new laws without letting citizens know what's in them.

We’ve been fighting these types of agreements for years, and have won. If
we join forces to stop the TPP, we’ll show that people everywhere will
stand up when any governments put corporate profits before the public good.
Allies in the US Congress just told us 'this is not a done deal', but to
bury it, they need all the public help they can get. *Join the call and
spread the word. This needs all of us*:

It can be easy to feel small in the face of big corporate forces driving
our governments. But when they tried to push a trade deal that threatened
our internet freedom, almost 3 million Avaazers took action, and our
community was a key force in stopping it completely. Let's do it again here
and remind our governments that people, not money, are the true source of
power.

With hope and determination,

Dalia, Nataliya, Alice, Mais, Emma, Danny and the entire Avaaz team
