>> The TTIP is a trade deal being agreed by the EU and US to remove barriers to commerce and promote free trade. > Free trade is only good when we respect each other's standards and don't try to constantly undermine consumer and worker protections. "Neoliberalism is the defining political economic paradigm of our time - it refers to the policies and processes whereby a relative handful of private interests are permitted to control as much as possible of social life in order to maximize their personal profit. Associated initially with Reagan and Thatcher, neoliberalism has for the past two decades been the dominant global political economic trend adopted by political parties of the center, much of the traditional left, and the right. These parties and the policies they enact represent the immediate interests of extremely wealthy investors and less than one thousand large corporations." ~ Noam Chomsky, 1999, http://www.chomsky.info/onchomsky/19990401.htm |

It is not. This is a socialist State. And it is broke by the way.
The European or Federal Reserve printing money is not liberalism, it is Central planning.
That people in power try to maximize their personal profit is not liberalism, it is the rule of power on any ideology, institution or religion in the History of Humanity.
Look at any social animal out there and you will see them fighting for becoming alpha males or females. The difference with humans is that they rationalize it.
