    Pretty sure that's not true. It trumps statutes, not the constitution.
    Article 6, Supremacy Clause. If the Trans-Pacific Partnership goes through, for instance, it's going to hold a lot of power. Sure the supreme court may eventually rule some aspects unconstitutional, but states and citizens are going to remain screwed until the courts actually are allowed to step in.

    This Constitution, and the laws of the United States which shall be made in pursuance thereof; and all treaties made, or which shall be made, under the authority of the United States, shall be the supreme law of the land; and the judges in every state shall be bound thereby, anything in the Constitution or laws of any State to the contrary notwithstanding.
    Ah good. I hadn't caught the Bond v US decision. Seems that fear was waylaid. Good.

      Awesome.

      Because that has nothing to do with fascism.
      To us, it is the BEAST.

      • Lack of democracy is a very strong clue we're onto fascism.

        What evidence are you looking for?

          • You're a moron pchang. The EU very deliberately decided not to submit its constitution to referendum, seeing how the first two in France and Netherlands failed.

                LOL that the world is "working". It's just failing. I guess this is what you want?

                    • Would you rather be alive today or two hundred years ago?

                      • Oh, he'd rather be alive today.

                                Perhaps, but not necessarily.

                                Policies consistent with the definition of "fascism".
