The simple solution is to ignore illegitimate laws.
The legal process no longer concerns itself with the average citizen, why then does the average citizen show concern over the law?
- tptacek 11y agoHow does one "ignore" illegitimate trade agreements? By not trading with Asia?
- shit_parade2 11y agoSmuggling, ignoring IP laws, refusing to comply with fines or other rulings. You seem like a smart guy, try using your brain.
- tptacek 11y agoIt's hard to employ smuggling as a protest against a free trade deal, since the point of a free trade deal is to reduce the set of goods that need to be smuggled. And the fines in the TPP are settled between governments, not between aggrieved governments and individual foreign citizens.
- shit_parade2 11y agoHow would you know what the TPP entails? From leaks it suggests it involves companies suing governments for cash settlement. Also, you are rather naive if you think 'free trade' means free trade, it will be nothing of the sort, it will raise barriers and make many goods and services more expensive.
- tptacek 11y agoThis is neither responsive to my comment (which points out that TPP fines are settled between governments, and not to people who can "ignore" fines; somehow, this has become an argument against my comment?) nor falsifiable.
- shit_parade2 11y agoPerhaps English is not your native language? How do you know TPP fines are settled between governments? TPP is still ongoing, and is secret. How can I be more clear? As for your opinion about free trade, it hardly deserves a response, please consult a dictionary because you are not using the word correctly.
