Investor Rights Over Sovereign Rights
No enemy of the
United States ever had a better ally
than the government

NAFTA Chapter 11 -
Investor Rights gave the power to destroy our
government to the multinational corporations and
foreign countries. If a foreign corporation is
prevented from doing business in the United
States, Chapter 11 gives that corporation (or
foreign government masquerading as a corporation),
the power to sue to recover their imaginary losses
that come from being prevented from doing
business. If the government does not want to pay
the blackmail money, they must allow the foreign
corporation to do business in the United States -
consequences to the American people be damned.
When a foreign
corporation or government sues under the
provisions of Chapter 11, the case is not tried in
a U.S. Court or under the U.S. legal system. The
case is heard by the NAFTA tribunal which is a
kangaroo court operating under international law
to enforce the provisions of international trade
agreements between the NAFTA countries. Since
International Trade Agreements are the law of the
land, NAFTA overrode our Constitutional, elected
representative government and system.
There are a number of
cases that were adjudicated by the NAFTA kangaroo
court. In all cases, regardless of whether
Mexico, Canada or the U.S. files the case, the
decision is nearly always against the sovereign
right of a nation to control business activity
within it's borders.
The Investor Rights
included under the 'free trade' trojan horse
agreements give the legal authority for the
administrative departments of government to ignore
the laws passed by Congress - instead operating
under the international law of the international
agreements.
The system of 'New
Federalism' implemented by Al Gore during the
Clinton Administration crippled the administrative
departments of government in terms of their
regulatory functions. It made the corporations
"partners" in the regulatory process and it gave
them the ability to provide funding as
"contributions" for the initiatives they choose.
This also broke the authority of Congress to pass
laws controlling the actions of the administrative
departments of government and the actions of
corporations.
The issue with the
Mexican Trucks crossing the border - despite the
fact that the Congress voted to withhold funding
for the "project" a couple of years ago is an
example of how the NAFTA Chapter 11 - Investor
Rights is working. The Congress caved and
authorized a pilot program for 3 years so all the
rhetoric you hear from the members of Congress on
how "shocked .... just shocked" they are that
the U.S. Department of Transportation is acting
on their own against the wishes of Congress is as
phony as a $3.00 bill because they know the reason
for it - they just hope that you don't.
The newest example of
the administrative departments of government
operating independently, was found on the website
of Senator Tim Johnson (D-SD). Senator Johnson
and Senator Mike Enzi (R-WY) have written
legislation titled, "The Foot and Mouth Disease
Prevention Act of 2008" to prevent diseased cattle
from being imported from Argentina.
The following is an excerpt of the announcement.

I found a report on
the USDA website that appears to be information
about their initiative to allow the importation of
animals from Argentina.
Outstanding
presentation by Henry Lamb describing how NAFTA is
working to subvert Constitutional, elected
representative government
