Seriously? NAFTA/CAFTA Superhighway?

Hello all you beautiful people,

Are you aware that Multi National Corporations (MNC) and their sheep, the government, are in the process of building a NAFTA/CAFTA Superhighway? If not, please do some research and educate yourself about this latest autrocity in Capitalism and corporate greed. Lately through independent media sources there has been an influx of information coming in from Indiana where they are currently working on I-69. But the fight doesn't start or stop in Indiana, I-69 is the new NAFTA/CAFTA Superhighway that will be a continuous patch of pavement from Mexico City and extending up to Toronto.

But, this grande scheme is also part of a larger regional plan known as Plan Puebla Panama and a much larger scheme the Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA). With the recent passage of the Central America Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA), Plan Puebla Panama is now a reality. Plan Puebla Panama, once completed, will extend, without disturbance, a Superhighway system from Panama all the way up to Canada. This Superhighway system will and has cut through the heart of rainforest, the destruction of wetlands and other crucial habitats, and a mass displacement of over a million people, most of whom are indigenous or of the proletariat.

There have been wars already and there most certainly will be more to come. The Zapatistas (EZLN) in Chiapas Mexico have been waging a war against the Mexican Government since NAFTA (North America Free Trade Agreement or as we like to say Not Another Free Trade Agreement) took effect in 1994. The Zapatistas have established autounomous zones where the Federal Government has no control. Yet, because Chiapas is one of the richest states in Mexico as far as natural resources but is one of the poorest states in terms of economic standards the Mexican Government and MNCs are commiting human rights violations against the indigenous to further displace them to make room for the Superhighway and exploit other natural resources. The Zapatistas have been somewhat succesful, but the fight is bound to continue as greed wears on and Federal Government/MNCs patience wears thin. The war has also begun in Indiana, where some amazing peace actvist are setting up tree sitins all along the Superhighway construction site. They aren't yet losing the battle but they are in desperate need for help.

To no surprise the mass media has not been reporting about the tree sitins or educating the public about this extension of NAFTA/CAFTA. Congress is also mum, mainly because most of them are unaware that the $286 Billion Highway bill passed in 2005 was earmarked to build this Superhighway. Ron Paul has probably been the most outspoken critic of this Superhighway while others remain silent and uneducated (I recommend reading his statement on this @ http://www.ronpaul2008.com/articles/701/the-nafta-superhighway/).

This is just a small portion of what is happening, but hopefully this will incite some action to educate yourselves and petition Congress and the mass media to STOP being silent on this very important matter.
