The Sexual-Abuse-to-Prison Pipeline: many US girls from minority backgrounds are imprisoned for victimless "crimes" that are often a response to being sexually abused.

The Obama regime has decided to deny Malaysia's human trafficking record, to bypass a legal requirement so that country can be included in the TPP.

The US has for decades misrepresented countries' human rights records in order to continue selling them arms.

Three siblings in Michigan will be jailed for years for refusing to see their father.

If the mother has poisoned them against him — such things do happen — that is her responsibility, not the childrens'.

Microsoft gave Windows source code to Chinese companies which are thought to have provided it to the Chinese government to search for vulnerabilities.

U.S. Trade Policy Is Pro-Rich, Not Free Trade.

However, the "free trade" treaties are really treaties for corporate supremacy: trade is a side issue.

I don't think the US needs to have high tariffs; tariffs are a side issue. To the extent that these treaties implement free trade, that is harmful because it enables companies to shift production easily from country to country, this pressuring countries to compete for which will allow the worst abuse of workers.

That is the part of free trade that we need to get rid of.
