richest americans have access to adequate legal protection that's according to a recent report by an independent law group which just slammed the u.s. for not providing justice for all. her finds out it's only the tip of an unconstitutional iceberg. the united states of america land of freedom and equality a place where all citizens have equal access to life liberty and the pursuit of happiness or to try to make sure country mean change their liberty in the freedom that you care but not if you ask the tea partiers and while many might wonder what exactly they've been complaining about it looks like they might be on to something according to a new report by the world justice project the united states ranks the lowest out of eleven developed countries when it comes to access to civil justice and less than one in five low income americans gets the legal assistance they need wealthier people get good lawyers private lawyers they get out of whatever they were accused
11:07 am
of in the same accusation against a low income person and color will lead them to jail for lengthy periods of time i don't looks like the good old us of a doesn't stack up when it comes to other factories either out of the nine factories that the project looked into from absence of corruption to lou. when a government power to an effective criminal system the united states ranked seventh or below out of eleven countries in all areas except for one but then we really need a report to prove that the united states isn't all it's cracked up to be let's take a look at the justice system it's not just low income americans that don't have access to legal services many argue that african-americans are unfairly prosecuted too and you know in the states we had this terrible problem with american bigotry racism bigotry class bigotry within the system a system not a next in the system a white capital supremacy where we still have a large part of the population celebrating the idea that white people are superior

to black people every day americans witness shocking stories of police brutality and police departments across the country are shelling out sometimes up to one billion dollars as is the case in new york city to settle cases many having to do with brutality everybody interacts with the police and you think that they are there to serve and protect us but you know police officers need to understand that they swear an oath to the cost of tuition and the number one important factor they should provide in their job is constitutional protection for the citizens of this country i think that's been lost and what about limited government powers the united states ranks ninth out of the eleven developed countries when it comes to that the national legal and policy center recently found that the white house might be spying on americans on facebook twitter and other social media websites and not too long ago president obama resigned the patriot act that allows the government to spy on americans and seize personal records and private data in the name of homeland security we now know and the federal government has admitted that homeland
11:09 am
security's main focus is not. caves in central asia the main focus and you war activists quakers conservatives libertarians land rights activist anti g.m.o. activist it's measurably everybody and while the united states. it's wages wars abroad to bring freedom and democracy to other countries many say it need not look beyond its own borders to find problems to solve and here we are going around the world bombing and invading other countries to bring democracy to them when we really should be focusing on improving our democracy here at home i have an irony that may just contradict what the united states was founded on preassure either r. t. washington d.c. . well antiwar coordinator brian becker says washington's efforts to bring democracy to other nations are more than just one while the united states is becoming so class polarize one percent of the population controls forty percent has
11:10 am
access to and controls forty percent of the nation's well that's a gargantuan shift from even twenty or thirty years ago so the class polarization the rich really are getting richer and the poor getting poorer there's no social safety net to the extent that one was a good one existed it's been this aerated we're turning more and more into a warfare state rather than a welfare state you can have two point three million citizens arrested in prison that's more than any other country in the world incarcerating people about level depriving those same people of jobs and education and then go around the world using military methods and weaponry to say we are the great promoters of democracy of course that is completely hypocritical. on the way in a few minutes here in our two you are going back to basics. gathering are the order of the day in the ancient city of the d q no good russians northwest. but first let's take a look at some other stories dominating world news this friday then darien planned

11:16 am
question to you just been what you report about traditions are there any traditions that you've been introduced to since you've come to russia well i have been in the banya before and that was a very interesting experience as far as the traditions i'm not really sure what exactly they are but i just know that i felt great after the banya and that i really like to go again i think that the russian hospitality is really great i think i feel more at home sometimes here than i do in my own house just meeting people that i hardly know at all or have just met they are extremely hospitable they treat me just like my best friends would back home and i've only known these people for about a week it's always are you sure you have enough to drink are you sure you have enough food how do you feel about you know russians love of hunting things light up well actually back home i am a hunter so i have no qualms as you put it about hunting as long as it's not
11:17 am
just first for that you eat what you take and. i see nothing wrong with that. are you looking forward to having a child that he does yeah i would hope so but maybe not this time maybe next time around but that would be fantastic if i could find somebody to tag on with to go hunting or. even just fishing all right thank you very much we've been speaking to jim murphy who is a student of russian hair of the like the university probably all the way from the united states. later are to take you to see some real classics on wheels which have remained firm favorite over the years. on the streets of moscow our program i'll be delving into the subject of cards from the whole strong carriages of peter the great suit soviet largest in the western imports of today used as a status symbol and not just as a form of transport it's easy to see how passionate russia has always been and
11:18 am
indeed it is but it comes to the subject of automobiles. so if you have a passion for retro cars don't forget to join martin andrews and the moscow team in just over an hour's time here in r.t.e. we're going to take a short break and then kareena will join us with the business. hungry for the full story we've gone to. the biggest issues get a human voice face to face with the news makers. every month we give you the future we help you understand how we'll get there and what tomorrow brings the best in science and technology from across russia and
11:19 am
around the world. join us for technology update on r g. hello and welcome to business with me kareena malakand rosneft has signed a deal with the told us that as well that to acquire its fifty percent stake in germany for one point six billion dollars signing comes after talks between president medvedev and his venezuelan called a particular child that another deal is a joint construction of an l n g facility piper told us that as well and gas from the russian and venezuelan energy ministers also expressed support for tank piece acquisition of b.p. assets in venezuela. almost every scene go russian on this company has a. project outside russia but for think it was an issue before. and the reason probably was b.p.
11:20 am
itself because one of the. official reasons for the conflict between the. orders was that the object to against. distributing it's all over the world well probably because not to create some competition between the b.p. and through it so as a result now i would call these projects as a first significant stream project for abroad and probably it will be the first success of the stream abroad and staying with the energy issue both garia will accelerate construction of a section of the saw stream pipeline project it agreed with gazprom to form a joint venture next month much earlier than expected chief executive alex a miller visited bug areas prime minister on friday and the parties will sign a deal next week. and let's turn now to the equity markets you have the install

11:22 am
central banks are failing to deal with the cause of the crisis asian investment experts have published a critical book called the gathering storm artie's lower emmet spoke to the co-author patrick young to ask what governments and central banks i doing wrong we've spent the last twenty years at an all you can eat buffet and we've basically kept eating and kept eating and eating and now we're food and i think the problem with that central banking is all about effectively when the party gets going the central bank must remove the punch bowl as well what's actually happened here is you know ben bernanke up the point where we got to one minute to midnight instead of closing the party dine he brought everybody inside locked them up and pushed their faces into the punch bowl and made them drink more the difficulty is that when you've drunk three bottles of vodka then you may well think that you're capable of putting the world to right but at the same point in time you know you're going to wake up in the morning with a hangover this is the point where we working up in the morning with a terrible hangover and ultimately it's very very difficult to speed up the process
11:23 am
of getting rid of the hangover. and the stock market is rallying and they've had their highest since morning in both the last why would stop the rally if there's a new crisis just around the corner oh well i think the point is that we're very much in the minority in terms of spicing the idea that we believe there is a storm gathering i think it's also important to understand that we're not saying there's a gathering armageddon we're saying there's a gathering storm there are economic problems ahead it is going to be a rough ride but there are incredible opportunities in the longer term that said the difficulty we have is that a lot of people have sat on the sidelines they've pushed up bubbles in other assets i mean for example classic cars and various aspects of the art market people are looking to try and vest some more we've seen the degree of interest in the equity market in recent weeks and certainly equity markets have pushed up but if we look at the context of the last decade this is a lost decade for financial investors who've been investing in the stock market in the west. i'm going full way if we follow the money well if we see what they are
11:24 am
trying to protect themselves against in the way well i think that the moment obviously a large number of investors are really hoping that we're going to get all the way through this recession very quickly and we're going to come out the other side and everything's going to be fine but the problem is when you see such very very large capital market movements over time and we've seen this incredible bull market that lasted really from the early one nine hundred eighty s. all the way through to two thousand a.d. we're going to end up with having at least another few years before the system cleanses itself and i mean if we look at what happened before we had a peak of a market in basically the early one nine hundred seventy s. and it was basically another twelve fifteen nearly twenty years and fight between peaks of the market before we actually saw the marketplace recovering again and that's the difficulty it doesn't just go away with one recession unless it's a very short sharp recession i mean countries like for example the baltic states some of the parts of eastern europe because they're in a completely different phase of the developmental cycle and therefore they have got the opportunity to point but in the relatively bloated wealthy large state economy

come treece of western europe it's going to be very very difficult to turn not wronged and that's all the business is for this hour but you can always find most stories on our website complex that's. more news today violence is once again flared up. these are the images seeing from the streets of canada. for racial.
