Details of a highly secretive, multi-national trade agreement long in works have been published by WikiLeaks, and critics say there will be major repercussions for much of the modern world if it's approved in this incarnation. The anti-secrecy group published on Wednesday a 95-page excerpt taken from a recent draft of the Trans-Pacific Partnership, or TPP, a NAFTA-like agreement that is expected to encompass nations representing more than 40 percent of the world’s gross domestic product when it is finally approved: the United States, Japan, Mexico, Canada, Australia, Malaysia, Chile, Singapore, Peru, Vietnam, New Zealand and Brunei. .................

I say Tin Foil may be in fashion because many of the tin foil hat conspiracy theories these days are turning out to be more or less accurate. Or perhaps you just aren't a Ministry fan. A little dated, I know.
You must learn how to better express yourself. For a long time western governments labeled all the concerns as crazy conspiracy theories but with different media alternatives, it is becoming more and more difficult for them to hide the truth and pretend everything is fine.
