No, and you are really reading a shitload into what I wrote. I didn't actually state my position at all, just state events that will happen. The logical outcome of which I believe would be my position which is the following.

My position was that if the details are made public it won't matter if the trade deal is going to be a good deal or a bad deal for the American public currently. That is due to the fact that American bussiness interests will buy the view points of easily controlled people, twist them to the interests of their view points as they do in many (all?) elections and votes, and the deal will be changed to be categorically worse for the American People in general while being better for specific business interests. I do not think it will be destroyed, just made shittier.



All of that is rampant personal speculation. You are saying I am reading into your statements... but you are reading into what will happen way more so. Kettle calling the pot black is kind of lame.


While I will acknowledge that it is possible parties won't place ads to try and persuade people to support their point of view, I personally would find it amazing considering how many ads are run on TV around any election or vote by special interest groups.

Also regardless of me being a hypocrite you were reading into it. Just because I do something something stupid doesn't mean you should.

While it doesn't make my hypocrisy better, the only assumptions I stated as anything other than personal opinion is that there will be ads by interested parties, and that most people are stupid. In the second post I made I expressed my view of the outcome, I clearly stated it as personal opinion. Your message however tried to state my personal opinion, and did so incorrectly.
