Part I The continuation of the leveraged buyout with Jamie Diamond at the top.  Started with mega-corporations like Reynolds Tobacco, Nabisco, etc. and then went to small countries Greece, Portugal, etc and now they're moving to France, Spain and soon to begin the entire globe under the TPP trade agreement where Congress will give up it's right to oversight and hand the power to the president on an up or down vote.  You thought Congress couldn't work together?  Watch how fast they agree to rewrite the global laws and sovereign laws that have been the backbone of our justice system since the inception of the US Declaration of Independence.

Part 2 Every 10 years we lose 50% of our living standard through "shrinkflation".
