Obama touts the job benefits of KORUS but real winners are Big Pharma, Big Oil, and Goldman Sachs

Free trade’s multinational corporate bonanza

If you want to know who benefits most from free trade, all you have to do is look at the http://www.uskoreafta.org/members">list of co-chairs steering the U.S.-Korea FTA Business Council — the gold-plated blue chip clearinghouse for corporate support of the biggest of the three trade deals, the South Korea FTA. They include:

Ted Austell, Vice President, Trade Policy, The Boeing Company
Lisa Barry, Vice President and General Manager, Chevron
Joseph Damond, Vice President, International Trade Policy, Pfizer, Inc.
Matt Niemeyer, Vice President, Office of Government Affairs, Goldman Sachs
Laura Lane, Managing Director and Head of International Government Affairs, Citigroup, Inc



Again: Let as many people as you know about Obama's signing these GOP/US Chamber of Commerce-pushed job-offshoring deals. Then request that they tell people that they tell people that they know about Obama's role in all of this. Put his feet to the fire.
