what you have the noise which a person of which i don't believe it's an intercontinental one only westlake hutto shirt and family who turned hilton for the oprah summer said grenfell morning sedona sweeter knowing. full well so i don't kowtow to kerrville hutto shirts and so i go mitchell into still photos so i go in the movie she's available in the lot and the result is a. book about her with her t. here's a look at the top stories the world's fastest growing economies called for a peaceful solution to the league in crisis or dialogue and reform of the international monetary system the so-called brics group come together in a bid to have their say on global affairs. the latest technological advances are being used to spread democracy in the arab world and to govern activists are being

trained in the hope of triggering a ripple effect some say the intentions may not be secure. and relations between the u.s. and pakistan hit their lowest level since nine eleven ban demands washington cut cia operations in the country as drone attacks continue to cause casualties among civilians. and maybe most of it may be almost a year but america's twenty twelve elections looks set to be dominated by who should pay for the country's ballooning deficit conservative politicians favor spending cuts for basic services while president obama proposes tax hike for the wealthy professor joseph stiglitz nobel prize winning economist told r.t. the divide between the rich and the poor in the us is already enormous and needs to be rapidly addressed. joseph stiglitz is a nobel prize winning economist in columbia university professor and he's pushing
4:32 am
for a rethinking of the global economic framework in the wake of a financial crisis i want to thank you so much for joining us professor now you've written recently about the increasing disparity between rich and poor in the united states and you've even compared these conditions to what led to the other us we've seen in the middle east so what do you think are the factors that led to this and what do you think the consequences will be to the point i raised was that the increase in the concentration of income and wealth in the united states has been enormous. what's happened in the last couple decades is almost a quarter of older income goes to the upper one percent. around forty percent and i you measure it by the wealth goes to one percent americans used to think of themselves as a land of opportunity that everybody else thinks of themselves as a land of opportunity and they think of old europe as ossified which the
4:33 am
data. show that meanwhile we see protests taking to the capitals of states like wisconsin so is this reaching a tipping point i think they're beginning to realize that most americans are worse off than they were say a decade ago. so it's not just that all this wealth is going to the top everybody we're getting better off you can say well some are doing a little bit better than the others but actually moved americans are worse off than they were a decade ago. and that is if you include the sense of insecurity the loss of jobs that will it insecurity but health rights that most people in europe take for granted and united states people if they lose their job can lose all the access to health care and one of things that i raised in my article was that the put not only
4:34 am
the political consequences but the economic consequences that there are many things that any society has to do together. you have to. put education investments in technology. infrastructure roads. that means there has to be certain degree of consensus for a society to function even economically these are things the government has to do but if you have a very split society there are going to be very different views about what's important if the rich can buy their own parks they don't need to have public parks and the rich can buy their own education we don't have to have public education if the rich can buy their own health care we don't have to have good health care for most americans and that's where we're winding up today so the people at the top that one percent. are using that political power to try to preserve their wealth
4:35 am
and meanwhile making sure that the government doesn't do what is necessary for the prosperity the functioning of our entire society we're not seeing an increase in funding for infrastructure or education or science and said we're think quite the opposite said you think this country is headed in the wrong direction that's right and that was what was brought home so forcefully by the what was going to happen in wisconsin and here you have people saying over the country we need to improve education. but what are they doing cutting teacher salaries now you're not going to attract the best people into education if you don't pay them in that simple economics and it's not a surprise in the context that today in those standardized scores the rate education all over the world united states is really not doing very well so the grain here is that politicians asleep at the wheel are out of touch with reality or
4:36 am
their greater flaws in a system it's both i mean there are some really full deep flaws in america's political system. our campaign contributions supreme court said that corporations are people i meet it philosophically i find that difficult but they say because we can't restrain the rights of free speech corporations have unlimited ability to contribute and that means they can use their money to get laws that allow them to escape taxation and to shape a political process that really we work for them but not for the rest of the country and what i argue in my paper in my article was this was shortsighted if you don't make these investments we're going to wind up in a divided society and an unproductive economy and even that one percent. will suffer and that is the link between what happened in tunisia and mexico.
4:37 am
and in egypt and in other countries where they divide has grown and. it's meant that their economies have function and the societies have not function speaking or not functioning well what about the u.s. dollar because you're someone who is calling for a new global reserve currency but why because some say what's the alternative really would have argued for is a creation of a global reserve currency. reserve currencies are you might think of a store of value. and the dollar has been very unstable. understandable given the difficulties you might say of american economy you know our performance was not a stellar. but the fact that in a modern globalized economy twenty first century exit in nappanee isn't that
4:38 am
a single currency. would play the pivotal role that the dollar has played what i argue and argue my prepaid globalization work is that the dollar reserve currency system contributes to inequality. that poor countries are lending to the united states or close to zero interest rate and then borrowing back in much higher interest rates an equitable increase it contributes to instability. and it actually contributes to a weakening of global aggregate demand a weak lobel economy because if countries are setting aside. literally hundreds of billions of dollars to make a cautionary savings. that's money not spent so you're saying essentially it hurts everybody to have the u.s. dollar is that our currency that's right and what we describe what i've described in the u.n. commission that i share your commission on reforming the global financial monetary
4:39 am
system. explains how we can create a global reserve currency as really interesting to be here at bretton woods talking about that because keynes argued for this seventy five years ago. in the aftermath of the great depression here under stood. the links between. you case problem the u.k. being the reserve currency down and if we're going to have global economic stability we need to move off. of the. single currency country being the reserve currency. bretton woods failed from his perspective in this respect and didn't do us a we disagree we want to be the main reserve currency and got their way so with the us still have that same power if world leaders got together again today for another bretton woods conference i think that same meeting were healthier in bretton woods
4:40 am
the world is markedly different china has close to three trillion dollars of reserves about a third of the global reserves about nine trillion dollars you're holding three trillion dollars you have some voice in what kind of reserve currency system you want to have and china has been very clear that it worries about the current dollar based reserve system right after our un commission came out in support china's supported it france's support it russia supported it so there is a wide understanding now you know animists but a wider understanding of the importance of this idea and i think if the economy global economy remains weak i think will be more interest as one of the remedies to the current instability weakness in the global economy has also been critical of the united states for its policy of quantitative easing and if i've read their writings correctly you seem to be saying they have
4:41 am
a point so what is that money the point is the u.s. is creating liquidity us work very hard to open up global financial markets and one of the implications of that is when you create with quiddity if you go anywhere in the world it wants and where is it going not where we need it here in the united states it's going where it's not eight s. and china and brazil and other countries that don't want it so it's not only they don't need it they don't want it. we have to fix the banking system united states our system of getting money. into small medium sized enterprises is clocked in and the federal reserve has not fixed it you know they may contribute the creation of a crisis they don't understand the basic economics and that's one of the purposes the meeting here in bretton woods but because they didn't understand the problems that they were creating they didn't really understand how to fix it and yes they brought us back from the brink they saved the big banks but they have not really

we have to go to the beach and show that all happened in court to a point from ten to twenty minutes in the first half it was intolerable that should be the best incentive i don't think there's a need in looking for some special words. the only other quarter final game that doesn't look wrapped up already is the bracket kiev match up currently delicately poised that long gold piece fiore our joint favorites with porto for the title and we'll be confident of leaving the netherlands with a sizeable aggregate score against twenty having beaten them five one already while anything else than a three nil win for p.s.p. will see benfica seriously into the last world. the russian football union disciplinary commission has locked the technical three nil defeat on sunnites in petersburg following their premier league game with siesta at the weekend the much ended one one but is a need to monitor lettie group or if you regulations by refusing to start
