It seems to me that the info has not been highlighted, but it looks like D.Trump wants to bury the transatlantic treaty project ...
For the trans-Pacific treaty in any case; it feels the end:

Trump's first measure is no longer the wall with Mexico but the end of the trans-Pacific treaty

The Trump will bite his fingersTrump signed a document in the Oval Office on Monday ending U.S. participation in the Trans-Pacific Free Trade Treaty (TPP), hard-fought for years by the Obama administration.
The treaty, seen as a counterweight to China's growing influence, was signed in 2015 by 12 Asia-Pacific countries representing 40% of the global economy, but has not yet entered into force.
The treaty has been signed by 12 countries: Australia, Brunei, Canada, Chile, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore, the United States and Vietnam.
The Mexican President also announced that his country will begin bilateral negotiations "immediately" with the TPP signatory countries.
European Trade Commissioner Cecilia Malmström said Monday "more important than ever" the free trade agreement signed by the EU with Canada, CETA, in the face of protectionism advocated by US President Donald Trump.
MEPs are due to vote on CETA on Tuesday morning, paving the way for a plenary vote by the entire European Parliament on 15 February.
If the agreement passes these two stages, it will then come into effect partial and provisional, time to be ratified by all the national and regional parliaments of Europe. http://www.lalibre.be/actu/internationa ... 671dcc42f9

Or not ... by refocusing economic activity at the national level D.Trump may not be doing such a bad deal, moreover this trend of national withdrawal should be confirmed in many countries.
Anyway and whatever the outcome of elections in the world, the big loser is always the biosphere ...

Contrary to what skeptics predicted, the basic income model created more economic and work activity

Canceling international treaties slows the expansion of the sprawling power of giant multinationals, which are a real interface to the abstract finance industry ...
Can it slow the acceleration of the train? For the biosphere, it would be better to derail it before there is nothing left

The article you are quoting does not speak of a universal income but of a minimum subsistence income, a kind of Indian RSA.
What is more, it is difficult to extrapolate the case of India to that of European countries, especially since in the cases cited it is a fairly local measure.

That financial aid can bring some temporary relief to the most disadvantaged, I do not disagree, but this does not in any case constitute a lasting solution within a system configured to exclude more and more people ...
True universal income, in a European framework, is exempt from the economic functioning as it exists and makes the assumption that the machines which replace men will produce enough (abstract) value and that the compensatory redistribution of this will allow to its beneficiaries to buy the concrete wealth that is the result of this activity ... This constitutes an attractive postulate, but unproven and, personally, I do not believe it for a moment.
On the tafta and other treaties, there is obviously a tendency to turn in on oneself which is explained by the incomprehension of the economic mechanisms (that that which includes / understands all raises the finger! ), but the USA, if they really persisted with this intention, would quickly realize their error and the mystifying character of their power (it would be enough if China did not acquire the American financial values any more for that the cease immediately possibility for Americans to buy cheap consumer goods).
Dede, you write:

Dede, you write:
It is precisely a slowing down of a system structurally condemned to acceleration which would undoubtedly cause the derailment.Can it slow the acceleration of the train? For the biosphere, it would be better to derail it before there is nothing left

Indeed, everything is just western decor ...
The draft Donald Trump is very simple to understand, it can be explained by the psychology of the character himself, a 70-year-old man who made his fortune thanks to the American dream during the 60s and 80s.
Have found the visions of many people of his time like our friend C.Allegre,J. de Kervasdoué,A. Madelin etc ...
What does Trump (let's great america again) it's a step back.
Finding the conditions for past economic growth by liberalizing the energy sector is by looking for the last drops of oil ...
We are closing the borders and making the American people (and their businesses ... ) a short dreamlike interlude, and after him ... the flood ...
In France we obviously have defenders of such a vision, I leave it to you ...
This program is obviously doomed to certain failure, as much as the globalist project of Hilary Clinton...
Unfortunately all of its policies bring us day by day towards a certain and increasingly violent collapse ...

In France, it is not only on the right that anachronism flourishes: the left only dreams of resuscitating the famous "glorious thirty", its imagination has remained stuck on what seems an unsurpassable holy grail ...
