With 10 Health Care Executives on it Board, US Chamber of Commerce Defends Big Tobacco Abroad

En fait il apparaît de plus en plus que certains, beaucoup (la plupart ?) n’optent pour le secteur de la #santé que pour se faire soudoyer.
... the tobacco industry has its powerful supporters. A recent NY Times investigative report, and a report entitled “Blowing Smoke for Big Tobacco,” documented how the US Chamber of Commerce has defended the interests of tobacco companies overseas. The apparent paradox here is that the leadership of the US Chamber of Commerce includes leaders of large health care organizations. So far this paradox has not been explained by the parties involved.

US Chamber of Commerce voices concern over potential BNP fine | FT 11 June 2014 By Hugh Carnegy via @observatoiremultinat

The US Chamber of Commerce, the powerful American business lobby, has voiced concern about the potential scale of a fine on French bank #BNP Paribas by US regulators, echoing anxious demands by the French government for moderation.
Speaking in Paris, Myron Brilliant, head of international affairs for the USCC, said the Chamber might “weigh in” on the issue if BNP was hit by “excessive” penalties for breaking US sanctions on doing business with Iran, Sudan and Cuba.
“We worry about actions by government and other entities that could undermine the business environment and create uncertainty,” Mr Brilliant told the Financial Times. “We do not want to see a chilling impact on investment into the US.”
His comments reflect the USCC’s longstanding concerns about the effects of regulation and litigation on business. Yet they also hint at concern that the BNP case could damage the prospects of a new transatlantic trade deal for which the USCC has been one of the most devoted advocates.
