Part of my decision to quit eating meat was motivated by the TPP.

OK I read that first link and I'm confused on what that has to do with being a vegetarian.

Are you under the impression that pre-TPP meat is somehow better? It's only the breadth of the problem that's getting worse here. I've been veg for years and this is just more reason to stay that way.

See the above links about internet censorship and food safety and regulation. This is basic corporate profiteering at the expense of your health and well-being, and basic reduction of liberty.

I read your links and I still feel the same way. You think the FDA guarantees safety or something? Pre-TPP meat is still unhealthy and poorly regulated. One of your links even says as much, that 1% of seafood is inspected, Dolphin-Free labels removed due to international pressure, etc. This TPP thing seems like it'll only exacerbate the problem that I have with meat as it is.

You are not saying anything helpful. Obviously people should already be vegetarian, but not BECAUSE meat is "unhealthy" (it isn't, it's actually a very healthy source nutrients) or poorly regulated (arguable). People should be vegetarian because eating animals is unethical and environmentally nonsensical. The TPP only serves as FURTHER motivation to protest the industries that would profit from it by not consuming their products.

Will the TPP affect tor at all? I don't really understand what it is exactly, all I'm seeing is it will have a big impact on intellectual property n stuff. Someone care to sum it up in a paragraph or two?

We have a general idea what it is. I'm all for the globalization of trade and copyrights because I feel it's the next evolutionary step (even if Africa and P2P gets fucked).
I don't like ANY policy where the specifics are not voted on or discussed, however. Alas, what can I do, but wait and see...

I think you just re-worded what I've been saying. The unhealthy aspect of meat in my perspective takes into account the current state of meat production and importation in America, including the ethical and environmental aspects. It's spiritually and socially unhealthy to consume meat.

If anything, it will cause more people to use programs like TOR.
