By analogy, the US 4th amendment protects against "unreasonable search and seizure", yet in reality non-criminals are having billions of dollars' worth of money

By analogy, the US 4th amendment protects against "unreasonable search and seizure", yet in reality non-criminals are having billions of dollars' worth of money and property seized by the government. Why, because of a literal and technical interpretation of the letter of the law: ( "The rights of the people" vs "we're not prosecuting the people, we're prosecuting the assets, see, no law violated ! " ).
So what's going to happen is, laws that protect people from leaded drinking water are going to be annulled because they aren't "consistent with the provisions of the Chapter".
TPP is really simple: it protects corporations at all costs. Dont make this into some complex legal production.
