sufficient revenue and these plans do reduce spending in ways that will be painful and for many communities in the united states transformative but it's worthy of note and somehow hasn't much been mentioned that not a single plan out there reduces the national debt they just change the speed by which it grows. the politicians. who would be to blame if the american economy hits a brick wall joe so then today from the us space trends journal says that political elite won't recognize simple solutions to americans deficit the country is going bankrupt just look at the numbers the numbers don't lie the politicians it looks look at the bigger picture first of all they devaluing the dollar and we've been saying it all along gold in the last month is gained one hundred fifteen dollars an ounce here's what they're not talking about in all this deficit reduction hey how about the military budget how about slashing foreign aid fifty seven billion

dollars a year how about companies like general electric that made fourteen billion dollars last year paying no taxes look there's plenty of room out there to start raining this thing in and turning it around we do not have a representative form of government we have a government that represents only the very powerful and the very rich and that's all this is about letting them keeping their perks for economic illiteracy is plunging america deep into crisis so says that next kinds of financial experts and who stop the kinds of reports you know. but the world is adjusting the dollar will lose its status as a world reserve currency us debt will lose the aaa rating and it's a complete different configuration and washington is not the biggest player in this if they were being mad as shit by somebody who knew something about economics not barack obama who's financially illiterate they would allow the dollar to collapse against other currencies let the economy go through two or three years of

a gut wrenching depression and they come out of it and rebuild but keep their sovereignty intact otherwise america will end up like greece losing their sovereignty america will end up like other countries in the arrows and like ireland that's lost its sovereignty to the i.m.f. in these other banking institutions i think most americans would prefer to be sovereign and free than to be a vassal state of international bankers or the oldest second deadline for raising the debt ceiling in the us is rapidly approaching and there's still no solution on the horizon or teaser laurie huff next and soon as the resident hit the streets of new york to find out whether americans for the financial markets it's around the corner. with the looming debt crisis the u.s. is watching the clock tick down to an economic armageddon what is that even mean this week let's talk about that big keep that it dates over and over again and

nothing happened just part of the negotiation process of it so it's i don't brag. i believe so do you expect more from the people you elect. neither party is going to let this actually happen where they would let it expire and then the united states would go into default i don't think that's going to happen i think that's a bluff but i think what actually is at hand is for real and they're they're using it as leverage to push their respective issues but i think americans if i'm speaking for myself as an american are sick of it representing the viewpoints of they think that they were representing but i don't i think they keep on saying the american people want this america be one does but i don't think anybody really what they really want what do you want i would like compromise right now the drama right now is largely contrived there is a debt crisis but will make it through and you know will pay the bills and things will be fine so all this drama i think is just making people crazy why are they doing that now i mean we raise the debt ceiling every year why is this drama

unfolding right now well it's largely political because the upcoming election you know it's a good thing it's finally happening i think the people are speaking up and and hopefully we'll get our way but sometimes it takes a while to bad things really are i mean nobody has given any ground i've seen night before for many many years and this is absolutely truly amazing and makes me wonder how they ever get anything done in israel or in italy or any place where they have multi parties i mean we go to parties to an airport if you include the two guys and we can't get anything done is utterly embarrass amish will be ashamed of themselves no matter what happens with the u.s. debt crisis the bottom line is we're bound to the a lot more pasturing from all the politicians and it's. well still to come on the program uplifting expectations. as

enthusiastic welcome the first steps to. stiction despite. more than a year has passed since the indian government gave children rights to free education i think helped to bridge a social divide. tens of thousands of protesters gathered in egypt's tahrir square one of the biggest rally since president mubarak was overthrown five months ago the largest group attendance was ultra conservative islamists calling for the introduction of sharia law genest and austin back he was in cairo says the arab spring has produced a strong and divisive is in this movement they unity and it was a sign the liberal islam is forces are going to come together to continue their push for sort of basic democratic rights down in the square i was just down a little before i came here this is a huge number of. muslim brotherhood members the most just.

the time that i've been here and they there's many chants of. islamic identity and this is the islamic nature of egypt which is causing some friction with. the secular forces who are normally it is that you know forces dominate they're the ones who run the running it sit in there for a month since the clashes that happened at the end of june but today. by the islamists. what i similar show the rest is caring in neighboring israel thousands of young protestors pitched a tent camps across the country cities calling for social justice and voicing discontent at government policies a mass around is planned for saturday as the parents of the participants prepare to join in and stand in israeli journalist sahar predicts israel is edging closer to

revolution. two thirds of the poor in israel are working poor people who are working every day people who have a great jobs and still are not able to go above the poverty level so that's a reason that people are coming out of the street if you look at how the protesters started it's almost identical to how it started in egypt and internees and other places started through facebook somebody who made a post on facebook through social media that's how people organize or was organized completely in the beginning by the young people in israel student people who feel that they have no future people who feel who can't afford living here and that i was realizing that this is not the way to go forward and he's trying to figure out ways to deal with it because the government could definitely fall in israel and these are ground and i think he is in danger especially that the process and the growing while israel has been under building in tel aviv in haifa in all these major cities in israel is all have been overbuilding in the west bank focus of the israeli government at the moment is more sustaining the occupation and more

sustaining the settlement rather than kiran for the majority of the population who actually opposed that the lands and oppose occupation and israel proper so that the problem here though is a still many israelis have not been able to make that connection and the more and the sooner israelis make that connection realize that the accusation affects their daily life affects the pennies that the government spending the money the government spending in the west bank verses in israel i think you will see a real revolution in israel more than a yes part since the indian government announced president rights to education that was aimed at stamping out in mr c. in that country economically fight the concept was to provide compulsory and free education for children aged six to fourteen i've. discovered reform is facing tough challenges. it's dawn in india's capital city of new delhi an eight year old cushy just getting ready for school while there are nearly two hundred

million elementary school children like coaching in india only half that number ever complete the eighth grade most end up leaving school to help their parents with domestic work or to get a job to bring in some extra money maybe but i haven't studied much that's why i want to educate my children after growing pressure to address the educational disparities in india the government passed an ox making it mandatory for all children between the ages of six and fourteen to get a free education it even requires a leap to private schools with tuitions nearing five hundred dollars per month to grant a quarter of their states to students from disadvantaged backgrounds like clothes shoes. and. then young. today there are just as many schools where students have to pay a choice unlike this one as there are free schools that are funded by the

government according to the act it's up to the parents to decide where they send their kids to school that means a student like course she can attend an elite private school if she enters that winning the lottery and gets into the twenty five percent quota it also means that if government workers are able to identify and successfully enroll kids insist that are at times big not just schools like the ones pushing attendance now could get overcrowded but the idea of free schooling in india has its opponents with concerns even raised by proponents of the act three schools have no art and quality and i think poor parents are much smarter than that. and they want to quantity and quality is something that the principal of cushy school knows has a different definition depending on the school while the teachers want to see their students succeed they believe that integrating indian children from a lower class. into a private school would not be practical. void been easily and schools have a very high standard only juden whose parents are educated can study in schools

like these schools want to maintain their high standards and reputation how can poor people send their children to schools like these because their parents are an educator even at home there is no one to tutor or supervise their studies or homework it's a position supported by the well off members of indian society the school is not meant for them. it's meant for the people the people have to go over there so they're getting elected in the sense that he comes from a background his approach would be labelled as a what they were. putting him in that sort of fit into i mean so he would have trouble getting assimilated in spite of the mixed reception the integration model received for children like cushy education is simply about accomplishing her dreams i want to study to the twelfth grade ten become a teacher. but it's a dream that may just fall through the gap of india's socio economic divide.
