[Peace-discuss] Labor, House Dems Stall Panama Trade Deal

[Robert Naiman]

There's little question that the Obama Administration has tacked hard
to the right on international economic policy since coming in to
office. Its efforts to ram $100 billion for the International Monetary
Fund through Congress via the war supplemental without reform language
that would stop the IMF from making recessions worse through demands
for budget cuts - as the IMF is now doing in Latvia - are just the
most recent example.

But if the Wall Street boys thought they were just going to run the
table on international economic policy in this administration, they
had another think coming.
