> TPP is about the US as a whole.
And most of the information I have suggested otherwise.
The problem was that all of the things pertaining to the duties of corporations were optional while things falling on individuals were enforced with the full weight of law.
The people putting together the TPP knew EXACTLY what they were doing and tried to tie together a bunch of unpopular stuff with a bunch of important stuff and ram it all through together.
Given how much effort some of this took to hammer out, they can split the TPP provisions apart and try passing them individually.
