John McCain
The Public Record
John McCain was a prominent American politician and military officer who served as a United States Senator from Arizona from 1987 until his death in 2018. A member of the Republican Party, McCain was known for his bipartisan approach and commitment to national security. He was a veteran of the Vietnam War, where he was a prisoner of war for over five years, an experience that shaped his political career and views on military and foreign policy.

Under the provisions of GATT the holder of resource assets may have rights which supercede those of the state or Federal governments.
Please look past the attempt to cloak this greed under a respectable name like 'Rationalization'.
This is a question of national policy that reaches far beyond the domain of the Council.
I believe that that this legalized bribery system of ours is the root of corruption in this country.
