TPP: United States Pushes for More Exteme Measures

The Toilet Paper Ponzi-scheme is back in the news thanks to Wikileaks. The pdf's below are from the Salt Lake city meeting held at the end of November 2013: 


These documents show that the United States is pushing for extreme internet and copyright regulations.  If the corporate masters of our government had their way, even I could loose access to the internet or be fined or jailed by publishing documentation like the ones above.

Journalists everywhere need to countermand these intrusive infringements of individual rights of public domain and the press. The United States government wants to subvert our Constitution and Bill of Rights.
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances - See more at: http://constitution.findlaw.com/amendment1/amendment.html#sthash.OUFuoqbs.dpuf

"The security of the freedom of the press requires that it should be exempt, not only from previous restraint of the executive, as in Great Britain; but from legislative restraint also; and this exemption, not only from the previous inspection of licensers, but from the subsequent penalty of laws." James Madison was concerned that authors would be deterred from writing articles that assailed government activity if the government were permitted to prosecute them following release of their works to the public.
So much for the First Amendment if Congress passes the TPP. It's not like Congress isn't trying to license journalistic entities anyway, contrary to the beliefs of James Madison.

All you have to do is look at corporate media and the blockade against Wikileaks to know that the United States federal government is not being run by the People anymore.
