Gurtov’s
article, The Trans-Pacific Partnership: A
Deeply Flawed Partnership, brought up a good point that made me reflect on
so many things. Gurtov posed the question of who truly benefits from TTP? It
was something that I had never truly looked into, I knew that top was the one
benefiting for sure but never truly grasp the idea of who on the top and at
what cost. Based on the article the true and only beneficiary from this is the
one establishing trade. The U.S. is benefiting amazingly from partnerships that
they are establishing in other countries. The cost unfortunately lands on the
people living in this nation because they are loosing jobs. At the cost of
citizens the U.S. is growing partnerships that only benefit the top 1%.
Question: Are
these TTP powering or actually affecting globalization as a whole?
