WTO Poll
MS NBC
Published Dec. 20, 1999

Do you agree with the WTO Policies?
Yes 13.6%
No 54.1%
Sometimes 20.3%
Not Sure 12.0%
4860 respondents.
=========================
This was from the "belly of the beast," GE,
owner of MSNBC.
Wonder if Bill Gates' loosing his copywrite
legal case in the Chinese Courts have something
to do with the unusually open press coverage
(anti-free trade) in Seattle?
Well Bill, are you having second thoughts about
pushing the unelected WTO where dictatorial countries
can try to take over your business?
Wonder if GE executives are worried that
third world dictators will use the WTO to
deminish their power?
GE is very pro-free trade and has move
essentially all it's manufacturing plants
offshore to:
1. Make use of almost slave labor rates
in Mexico and slave labor rates in China?
2. Avoid attachment of it's assets by the
Federal Court of NY judgement.... that
GE lost on forcing clean up of Hudson River
of toxic PCBs. (Up to $ 8 billion unless
force, contained attenuation is used-Living
Machine)?
GE has worked consistently to increase the
amount of soft money in campaigns and
has worked consistently to raise the status
of corporations above that of citizens.
Maybe there is hope for citizens yet.......
but beware, the corporate lawyers and PR
types believe in Lennin's idea of one step
back followed by two steps forward.
========================
Thyroid Problems/ADD ADHD Birth Defects
Cancer
Porphyria
Diabetes
etc.
=============================
See why Medicare costs and medical insurance costs
will break the US taxpayers/private insurance
premium payers budget if increasing amounts of
endocrine disruption chronic deseases are not
recognized and dealt with as a toxics problem.
Next 15 years: $1.2 Trillion
Following 15 years: $2.2 Trillion
etc.
