- Offshore good-paying jobs to low-wage nations and undercut working conditions globally and further reducing wages in the United States
- Create new tools for attacking environmental, healh, labor and consumer safety standards
- Expand the deregulation of banks, hedge funds and insurance companies
- Further concentrate global food supplies, displacing family farmers and subjecting consumers to wild price fluctuations
- Institute longer patents that restrict access to affordable, generic medications
