your government is broke still don't worry obama won't have to sell anything or even raise taxes at least not directly to keep government spending at current levels he's just going to steal your retirement tonight i'll explain just what the president thinks is more important than not stealing and we'll be joined by political science ph d. and professor occidental college carolyn helen and steven spalding who's organizing a rally in indiana indiana to protest the state's supreme court decision and we've got a special presentation from luke. about the chicken whisperer i know talking about economic exploitation by the government can get tedious at times but at some point in trying to rework fruit the american news the obama campaign is going to run into

something like we'd love to help and thanks to the high unemployment we've got plenty of time but now that we understand a little bit about economics we're supporting ron paul and that's the importance of a good education the kind you'll never get from the government but only from watching adam vs the man. in case you haven't noticed our government is broke worst when the treasury department has a fourteen point two nine trillion dollar debt ceiling on monday obama decided that instead of borrowing more money or say would you sing government spending the treasury would raid federal pension funds to maintain current government spending levels but what about assets the government must. something of value as collateral

besides your future tax contribution right well according to a heritage foundation report on asset sales a quote partial sales of federal properties real estate mineral rights the electromagnetic spectrum an energy generation facilities could bring in two hundred sixty billion dollars over the course of the next fifteen years ok so not really up to fourteen trillion dollars yet so. oh yeah the goal they can sell the build it for god's right i mean it's just been sitting there since president roosevelt stole it from the american people in the thirty's one hundred forty seven million else's a billion let's see the price of gold is about fifteen hundred dollars an ounce so that comes out to you know two hundred twenty billion dollars and am not even close but before obama even considers the considers these options he'll

take a retirement they see that one's character is judged not by times of plenty but by times of destitution it's when you're flat broke that true character is revealed we would hope that in challenging times we ourselves at least are all able to maintain our own standards of decency and stick to our principles the temptation of human nature is to compromise our values when survivals threatened many americans today are facing that point invested to sion when there is a temptation to sacrifice that which makes us human to maintain our animal bodies and creature comforts it's also the kind of moment their government is experiencing right now and it's true nature is being revealed in a way that is disturbing even to those of us who are familiar with the role to me for a government faced with financial decision president obama resorts not to honesty or principle but the theft. do you really think that those federal employees are

going to have their pensions restored. and maybe temporarily but vice president joe biden is now pushing a plan to seize private retirement accounts as well this is what you get for having an official government sanction for a one k. you get to help pay for all the important things the government is doing right now by the way this would be on top of the three trillion dollars the government's already taken from the social security trust so what is it that is so important we have to keep it going by theft well for you and being faced with starvation you might get mugged by sandwich for obama the money is being spent on sending deputy secretary of the treasury millon to visit kuala lumpur to highlight u.s. support for malaysia's goal of raising growth in incomes through comprehensive economic reforms like we couldn't use some of that support here at home sending obama's pre-authorized to moneygall

a town with an extremely ironic name made for just this moment in history get it money call where obama's great great great grandfather was from i'm sure this has something to do with fixing the economy and probably more to do with obama showing his white roots as he gears up for reelection in front replacing military helicopters in iraq with private contractor helicopters that cost twice as much but translate into more campaign contributions and even direct military spending. i mean pakistan where it looks like we are slowly working our way up the full occupation and we'll be building bridges there too well bridges collapse here at home but i mean a dozen other countries and by the way when the government confiscates your retirement money and spends it on bombs it counts it towards the gross domestic product doesn't that make you feel good about the economy. and also all street continue the euphemistically titled foreign aid the problem governments around the

world continues whatever p.r. firm will probably get the there was hired to handle osama for the white house obama killed osama and we got seventy two versions the president's golf trips the drug war raids yeah it's more important than you keep your retirement obama has to keep sending federal agents to bust state legal medical marijuana dispensaries it's more important to pay the salaries of the t.s.a. sexual predator solution give groping your children then not stealing i could go on obviously the list of ridiculous things obama is putting above your retirement on his list of priorities is staggering and offensive but what should be most offensive is that he doesn't care about you as for us faced with the difficulties imposed on us by the violent gang of thugs and leeches of comprise our government but his rise to the american standard of morality of mutual respect for each other is divine rights and if you happen to mug someone because you're starving just go

buy yourself a sandwich dunkel spending that money on five hundred dollars sneakers or you'll be wearing them to a food bank for much different reasons than when michelle obama did that but above all don't steal because the government hates competition. if police suspect that you committed a crime they can arrest you and put you on trial and that trial prosecutors must prove you are guilty beyond a reasonable doubt but if police suspect your car was involved in a crime they can take it sell it and in most places look at the proceeds to pad their budgets they need not prove you committed any crime or even arrest you to take your property away welcome to the upside down world of civil asset forfeiture with civil forfeiture your property is guilty until you prove his innocence to get it back and because most state and federal laws allow police and prosecutors to pocket the proceeds they have

a big incentive to pursue profits not just. last week i made a comment that sun may have thought a little over the top talking about police officers i made an analogy between the days of highwaymen and our modern day law enforcement well i hate to say i told you so but it turns out describing police officers as trolls waiting by the side of the road to take your money was not inaccurate as offensive as it may be for those of you who still believe in the ridiculous idea that the police force exists to serve and protect if you happen to be carrying a big lot of cash and shiny bad happens to find out about it you maybe cough it up why you might have been money laundering or selling drugs. might you want to sara lee because charge of the crime are put in a cage mind you they need real evidence for that step but to take the money and run no they don't need evidence for that cash doesn't go to trial for suspected crimes

it goes straight to the cops instead internecine explosive news channel five investigation discovered in system of civil forfeiture that brings into question the priorities of the police there on i forty drugs coming on the eastbound side while the money goes out and the westbound side and the investigations show that the police presence is focusing on traffic on the money side by eight and a one ratio and even getting into fights between departments about who gets to take not only that result and these are the situations on the highway so cops there. are nazis and a lot of drugs but rather a lot of federal reserve notes making sure that money never makes it into local communities where it can store families record lives and cause health problems. so in georgia police are busy harassing people for raising chickens that's right with the chicken whisperer our own luke redoubts reports this is

a good asking beautiful suburban georgia where the government's not only trying to keep you safe from raw milk but also the dangers of hazardous and very angry chickens. to find out more i'm here talking to the screen to recite la sir are you wearing this mask to remain anonymous sources local municipality does not charge me with a crime. horrible crime or you violating the crime of feeding my family for a backyard home grown. cluck yes yes it's just a lark to go to jail for six months and play a thousand dollar fine because i am raising chickens. clunking me you know it's incredible. i wanted to learn more about the issue so i decided to try down the leader of this terrorist movement the nation's chicken expert chicken whisperer. thousands of people across america want

to keep backyard chickens to provide for their families but they're crying out that many cities across america don't allow it people don't understand the benefits of having a few backyard chickens fresh eggs that travel thirty feet instead of three thousand miles they're great composters they make great fertilizer for your gardens they're a great education for kids and they're wonderful and second troll this is happening all across the country and canada and australia and really across europe as well it's a worldwide movement where people want to provide fresh food for their family a majority of the larger we just a pallet is the larger cities do allow backyard chickens because they always have allowed backyard chickens back when it was a necessity to feed your family by having a few chickens and maybe even if you go to your backyard they make a lawn possible for anybody to keep chickens they can still legally and say we welcome chickens and you just have to abide by this ordinance but then they make the ordinance so ridiculously strict that they know nobody can keep chickens in the

town so you know we're on to it when we know we don't want to do that and the good news is we feel from our research about eighty five percent of the towns that approach allowing backyard chickens do end up allowing backyard chickens in their towns some rules and some of their ordinances may be a little more strict than others but they are coming around and around backyard chickens when they take the time to look at the factual information about keeping backyard chickens. so what happened to your friend who had chickens my friend young lady had about a dozen chickens in her backyard and her neighbor's snitched on her and will not happen that involve the whole machinery of the local municipality to code enforcement people came over gave her a citation and she decided to fight it taken to court and she was up against a machine and unfortunately lost due to two different laws. that they you chose to interpret in a fashion to deprive her of her private property rights why can't you be like all

other americans and buy your chicken or k.f.c. . could if i wanted to eat questionable food and feed my family. questionable nutritional there are values and. concerns but g.m.o. and other biopics natural environment a natural diet control of what goes into much a concern i know what comes out of them yes i'm willing to be an outlaw because i want my chickens in order to feed my family fresh nutritious. high protein perfect. ski mask wearing a chicken farm in a home grown terrorists only. says the man when we come back we'll talk a political science and professor occidental college carolyn held in and stephen skolnick was organizing a rally in indiana to protest the state's supreme court decision that says when cops come on your home we're not just my down and but the boot that stops even one

about where all the when we finally get an american spring we'll have the answer when we come back states will watch an atom of. the world the fear mongering used by politicians who makes decisions to break through to be made who can you trust no one who is in view with a global mission would see where we had a state controlled capitalism it's called sexual so when nobody dares to ask we do our t. question more. internally or military mechanisms to do the work to bring justice or accountability. i have every right to know what my government and we want to know why. i think actually. well i would

characterize obama as a charismatic version of american exceptionalism. a new website with twenty four seven live streaming news towns like to tell you about it on belling financial heart unlimited free high quality videos for download. and stories you never find on mainstream news. of the political. scene more aren't. welcome back to adam vs the man joining me now is political science professor at occidental college carolyn alden co-author of rethinking madam president are we

ready for a woman in the white house carolyn thank you so much for joining us tonight you seen the the obama administration is in a tough spot now that we've hit the federal that ceiling what of obama's spending do you think is more important than say not stealing from federal retirement funds as he's doing. well you know the it's interesting the debt ceiling obviously the real deadline is august second not right now and what has gotten us into this is really forty years of accumulating a debt and also structural deficit problems starting in the early really ten years ago when we got into wars we couldn't afford and we started taxing corporations on the wealthy far far lower rates than we previously had so this is a long term problem president obama inherits it at the same time that he inherits this incredible situation with wall street the wall street meltdown the liquidity crisis of two thousand and eight so in terms of cuts i actually think it's a terrible idea to be trying to implement austerity measures when we're still in

the long recession it's not going to help matters it's going to exacerbate it's going to lower our tax revenues so it's going to make it's going to put us in a world of trouble so you think in terms of obama's extravagant foreign policy of liberal nation building now all over the world at least all over the middle east afghanistan iraq involvement in pakistan libya massive foreign aid programs no austerity there we need to keep the spending going as it is. well that's a that's a great point i should clarify not domestic spending cuts do i think we need to get out of a lot of these wars absolutely military for example military procedures are not effective in afghanistan we need to be using diplomacy going into iraq i mean obviously we could we could have an hour long ok well we can we can agree on that i mean it's always i mean most people come to consensus that our foreign policy that obama has enthusiastically inherited from the bush administration and actually increased the spending for. most of the american people are pretty pretty much on

a consensus about that but obama's decision that he was i mean you're right that the real deadline is august second the potential of a default on the federal debt but still the obama administration faced a decision on monday when we hit the debt limit and their decision wasn't to cut spending but rather to raid federal pension funds is that the right decision well absolutely not what i think they should do is actually go and tax the wealthy and corporations at the same rate that we were ten twenty years ago we've seen you know wealth on that's on the top one percent double since one nine hundred eighty but they're the amount that they're paying in terms of taxes congress if it isn't isn't that the strategy. isn't that the strategy that we've had of taxing the rich isn't that the strategy of the progressive income tax that we've had for decades now is that going to be different if you just fill the numbers or turn it up on the ridge there's still to be a little thought accounts to be able to get out of it. well and that's the problem right we need to have a tax code that isn't code hasn't been co-opted by the wealthy and i corporations

so you know wealthy individuals used to fifty years ago paid seventy percent of their their income in taxes which really turned out to be up about fifty percent with loopholes but now the top four hundred americans the top four hundred earners are only paying an essential rate of eighteen percent so it's an issue of enforcing the law that's what it will say when you say when we have a tax code that's not dictated by the super rich and corporations first we need a government that meets that qualifications and we're not going to have it under obama but so is yours we've just got a minute left here regarding the supreme court decision from monday on kentucky versus king about on words that were forced entry by police officers for the lowest threshold of suspicion what one ounce of outrage across the political spectrum to this why is not the obama administration or any of the democrats in power responding to this or are taking any action well the obama administration actually came out in favor of the kentucky decision right kentucky versus king where now

police officers if they believe that they hear behind a door that they don't have a warrant for or if they believe that they are evidence being destroyed they can now go in it is a huge shift in fourth and fourth amendment rights right major encroaching on civil liberties and the obama administration has come out in favor of this in favor of the decision to take away those rights unfortunately which is assumes assume that that is correct although i would i would hope we could we could expect more from a president hoping to get reelected in this country but it appears not carolyn thank you so much for joining us tonight thank you so much that was a ph d. political science professor at occidental college carolyn. last week indiana supreme court ruled three to two that citizens do not have the right to resist illegal entry into their homes by officers of the law this means that if a policeman enters your home we've been in the am without consent and you try to physically impeach him he can arrest you and that arrest is valid and you may be punished by law regardless of whether or not the officer was justified in come into

your home or was following procedure this is a blatant violation of this. basic rights and the sanctity of one's home and while throwing off the police state isn't going to happen overnight it's an income it is very encouraging to know it least that someone is already going something about it and this case joining me now is stephen skolnick a student at indiana university who's organizing a rally to protest this isn't by the in the us supreme court and today there's one week from the event happens to be stephen's birthday so what better way of celebrating then going on television stephen thanks for being with us tonight and happy birthday and it's my pleasure how are you doing today out stand out sound so tell me by way of background for this to fill in our audience what was the case that led to this is why the aspirin for the kids was barnes versus the state of indiana and what happened was there was a domestic dispute outside their home and they went inside when the police officers

showed up they were told that they were needed and they came in anyway mr barnes tried to resist and was forced up against a wall tasered and taken to the hospital because he had an adverse reaction of the to the electrical shock but that's a tidbit that's typical for human beings isn't it i mean actually i don't first reaction that's kind of the intent right but he was charged with misdemeanor resisting a law enforcement misdemeanor battery on a police officer or disorderly conduct and so there was a you know it went all the way to scream and yell supreme court and they ruled in favor of the police officers well that's surprising unfortunately considering our judicial system is a complete joke at this point and i understand you were really politically active before this this is a this is a first for you i have very little political involvement but i'm a very concerned citizen and i you know i heard about this and it really alarmed me and so i decided to see what i could do about it i didn't see anything going on i

didn't see any great deal of public outcry about this and so i decided to see if i can fix this where you are the outcry and the rally is now. it's that wednesday i very excited about that if you want to plug that plug you've got a facebook event you're organizing around this what or what do you want to know what are you hoping to achieve specifically with this event well really we're just trying to draw attention to the issue and i think in that respect we've already succeeded a great deal we've got over it you know eight hundred people who are asleep yes to this and we've got nine thousand more invited you know that number is just in to keep blowing up over the course of the next week because you know with these new social networks. their friends and so we've seen a tremendous deal of public outrage over this because the these violations of people's basic rights and we're really thrilled we're really fertile the people are making their voices heard and they're letting their legislators know that they're not going to stand for this and it heard that legislation is already being drafted

it's in the works to overturn this stance so are you meeting any kind of resistance from political leaders there are people who are going to go supreme court justices not too much as a matter of fact it seems that it must be this is one of those issues that people from both sides of the political spectrum can really get behind because it's just basic basic eilish an's of you know the home as the as a sanctuary and if you can feel safe in your home where can you feel safe cracked out stand will thank you so much for joining us tonight stephen q. of the great work and best of luck with your rally next week thank you very much outstanding that was steven skolnick student at uni at a university who is organizing a rally to protest the recent supreme court decision there so. last night i was considering my rants on yesterday's supreme court decision proclaiming for the thousandth time by an american blowhard on television the death of the fourth amendment so many before me and so many after will see this affront to freedom by

the government and take it as an opportunity to say that the sky is falling i don't want to be one of those guys i don't want to be just another pheromone or you've got the news and so-called journalists for them so monday supreme court decision was not exactly the death of the fourth amendment it is still paid some lip service on your privacy rights weren't doing all that well before the kentucky versus king ruling anyway which merely lowered the standard for probable cause to the bottom rung of a ladder we had been sending for decades at least if not centuries but not of my cry that our system of justice is a complete failure oh it certainly is is and i ask yourself if you have been served by your police and court system consider yourself lucky if you have ever been protected by a police officer or gotten real justice from a court of american law it happens but look around you i for one am not willing to accept this standard of justice or injustice americans who share my well earned

distrust of government i have looked at the recent events in the middle east known together as the arab spring with a certain jealousy we yearn not for the violence of governments resisting inevitable change but for the possibility of making real change in our lives right that minute by demanding our government respect this is human beings i know i'm not alone in this yeah sure you've been told the stock out on guns and gold and god for decades because of the coming economic collapse that's not what i'm talking about but it happens that would be just the beginning and sure we've been hearing predictions of collapse but something more important is changing in this country. it's not just that people will be hurting at home and this will fall chronic unemployment that paychecks won't cover groceries we might not even get to that point and i hope we don't but there is a growing divide between the people of america and our government

a fundamental dissatisfaction we're certainly getting a lot less than our money's worth and we're coming to a turning point human progress historically has always been a process of two steps forward one step backwards and we are coming to the end of a big step backwards in many ways we are going to fundamentally redefine our relationship with government in america we start in the next ten years one way or another i hope it can happen he's free i hope for the electoral mechanisms given to us by our founders provide us the peaceful means to vote our way out of this dilemma but if not i'm already far past my moment and when there is a critical mass ready to storm the gates i'll be the first one there now tonight i'd like to close with a moment of silence for another victim of the drug war us marine veteran of iraq

and afghanistan because they were you know was the victim of a team of federal mercenaries who shot seventy one bullets in seven seconds before identifying themselves a slot well executing a warrant on the residence was a shared with his wife and child in tucson they did not knock before kicking down the door and initially reported that graner had fired upon the swat team and released reports of swat team shields riddled with bullet holes before admitting that the victim of this brutal murder had not fired a single. brother it was a shame that the government you risked your life to defend took you from this world in a hail of gunfire followed by a hail of lies but the lesson of your story will not be forgotten. that's our show for tonight tune into more of our special about the fiction the scam the corporate welfare program known as intellectual property and there is no

such thing by the way which should come as a relief to most people because that means it's ok to copy music movies works t.v. shows ideas because it is wrong for the government to tell you that you can't use an idea because someone else had it first please check out out of verses the man got pounded on guests and topics and find me on facebook and twitter as always you can email me at adam at adversely man dot com you can catch his broadcast live that airs at r.t.e. dot com slash usa you can focus in washington d.c. .
