two. roots reach an agreement that's found most americans reputation. help us avoid default debt ceiling a nation default and this crisis time's running out the entire world is watching it's been a public spectacle filled with bickering grandstanding and lack of compromise i devise a debate over raising the u.s. debt ceiling created an unprecedented climate of uncertainty over america's so-called sound economy the damage has been done and what happens now everybody really thinks the united states isn't so secure it is not so safe even if the craziness subsides it seems to have got real close and who knows whether the next month next year this won't blow up again since the underlying causes economic problems are getting worse in this country core point five trillion dollars of america's borrowing is owed by foreign countries experts say washington's

mismanagement may cause investors to abandon the devalued dollar and end their partnership with america it's like being married to someone you have to so many of the richer you well know what or why do i almost. put up with this relationship the u.s. will be in for a lot of the only game in. the game and he is making noises chinese making noises were you know we're alone now in our ability to be a repository for financing in the world the results could spark a replay of the two thousand and eight economic meltdown except this time washington not wall street would be responsible for the first time in history our country's aaa credit rating will be downgraded leaving investors around the world to wonder whether the united states is still a good bet. interest rates would skyrocket on credit cards on mortgages and on pearl loans which amounts to a huge tax hike on the american people as the countdown neared zero all three big
6:04 am
movies fitch and standard and poor's threatened america's how lowed triple a score unless a deal with hammered out and the fourteen point three trillion dollar debts getting higher economists say america's unsustainable budget deficits are the biggest threat to the nation it's like the batteries worn out the spark plugs don't work the tires are flat all of this and so what we're trying to do is say we've got a little bit of money in the bank let's pay that debt down but we're not doing anything to fix the economy and so we're putting ourselves in a bigger and bigger hole not just because of the debt but really because we're not creating any way to get out of the debt instead of us president repeatedly asked americans over the past week to join a campaign to borrow and spend more make a phone call sent an e-mail tweet keep the pressure on washington and we can get past this while the eyes of the world have been following the heated saga playing
6:05 am
out between u.s. politicians the main problem not going away is america's debt and a growing realisation that elected officials may never be capable of agreeing on how to solve it. r.t. new york. when asked he also economics experts might so far devolve about what's ahead for the u.s. thought it wants the deals in place he believes that despise us in the media threaten to fold washington that has failed to produce incident where this is to any american insatiable appetite for borrowing. this whole crisis started as an opportunity of political theater these guys couldn't even choreograph success out of their fake crisis and so now we have a huge international failure which has already gone possibly lasting and certainly serious damage to the standing and reputation of the united states of america how hasn't much been mentioned that not a single plan out there reduces the national debt they just change the speed by
6:06 am
which it grows all of the showdown all this fanfare is about changing the exact forecasts ten years speed of that growth none of these plans make real efforts to reduce the long term problem of insufficient revenue and these plans do reduce spending in ways that will be painful and for many communities in the united states transformative but that will only reshift focus on to the more important long term issues of the absolute in sustainability of being committed which we are committed to having insufficient revenue for the amount of spending that we're going to be doing for the forseeable future while having a fourteen point three trillion dollars national debt this process itself to have and to take used to hurt the faith and credit the world has in the united states united states has the kind of budget imbalance that normally does occasion a downgrade we do have a particular set of opportunities in the united states not available to countries which is a good reason not to downgrade and that is we can print the world's global reserve
6:07 am
currency not without defacing and devaluing that currency but we can print it so the united states borrows in dollars and has the sole unique legal right to pay things and produce dollars which is iniki situation and makes us more credit worthy but downgrade which i think is quite possible and the sheer spectacular public failure of the american political system will take a while to figure out but they will not be minor but they will not be positive just so people know the statutory debt limit of the united states has been raised ninety times since one nine hundred forty that's an average of one point three to one point. times a year every single year there's another funny thing that no one seems to mention about the debt ceiling which i find interesting about something of an economic historian and that is that the debt ceiling came into being in one nine hundred seventeen because people in the united states were afraid that congress would enter world war one the looming conflict of its day and the idea was to make sure that
6:08 am
our government the united states government didn't enter us into wars without being sure they could pay for that now without being mindful not to increase the national debt a lesson that i think we were prudent to be concerned with in one hundred seventeen someone failed to remind us of we went into afghanistan and iraq so there's actually a very interesting historical story around the debt ceiling or statutory debt limit which i've noticed hasn't been much told of late. go ahead to dot com for the full version on friday nights wolf and analysis on the u.s. economic concepts they both knew there was well we must small also on off all my might now knowing we didn't investigate the scope of the mandate on the shipping side a surprise that put me there for the asking for to the lives of seventy seven. and it was so dramatic video we're finding someone maybe something's true russians the far east because the paul.

still to come later this hour here on r.t. the dark side of immigration. this building here in the center of moscow was formally empty we heard that now there are many immigrants living here in very poor conditions are illegally. he discovers a property scam where we're seeing immigrants accounts into abandoned buildings across a label part of the issue here even went to. washington to germany and the u.k. take decisive action against the syrian regime which are portably killed more than a hundred people on sunday government forces raided the city of hama with tanks
6:10 am
wreaking havoc on the opposition stronghold it's the latest round of crackdowns on protesters who are calling for president bashar assad to step down more than one and a half hours into the last hour to have been killed in clashes since march germany's calling for an emergency session are you asking the council to convene on monday syria is already under threat for american in the sections but some residents noises thinks the u.s. doesn't have the credibility to empty in syria's i pads. the interference of the world in my view can be counterproductive unless it is down properly rather than just making these wild statements like for instance the usa would decide whether the president of syria is next in the sea or not everybody is asking what right do the americans have to put this question anyway let alone deciding it but they seem
6:11 am
to be doing this selectively there in syria and the belle of libya but of the same time they have not done it with yemen they have not done it with other places where there is rising including. when president obama says what he's saying. everybody in syria and in the arab world will immediately respond back abide. by the rest of the afghanistan situation all of these things so it brings out all and it doesn't give any comfort but generally speaking the world seems to be content with thumb bending and making these wild crazy statements whether it's you know the regime is less than most or not or whether it should be it's using use of force the world can play at all but i think. it's not playing like cards. russia is joining the warring sides in syria to refrain from. any u.n. resolution targeting damascus a warmth of steps good leads to libya style for now really the nato led coalition
6:12 am
has been accused of stepping outside the limits of its u.n. mandate in around twenty minutes russia's deputy foreign minister tells r.t. why the syrians should be solving their problems the valves. the power games we believe that the syrian should address their problems as part of their domestic agenda this is an internal civil conflict and it should not be international artist as for the situation in libya of course every country is unique in terms of its particular situation the background of its conflict the form of the scale public sector on the other hand we should learn our lessons a number of international players tend to degrees from the strict observation of the instructions and the spirit of these resolutions therefore we are not really concerned that such loose interpretations could only result in making some of the opposition circles taking their position and ordered for a tougher approach which is by no means a cost of achievement in terms of finding a mutually acceptable solution.
6:13 am
well the syrian scene situation in syria has money wondering how come this crisis is solvable to show your opinion on the issue do you think at all broadside to cost you all grown since so far we can see that a lot of number of agents believe that staying away from serious problems and gather is the best solution around the birds of a peaceful resolution to the conflict for us the us than she could help themselves have a dialogue with the opposition while another eighty percent of the opposition should be aided in ousting assad and then hold the elections and then these stubborn faces believe the moon and radical measures like standing in a soup sheets as our people are the country with a few hundred voted already its all seen dot com let's say. they narcism is condemned while why they're all still pockets of support in some areas of europe over the weekend staying in veterans of the nazi s.s.

to condemn the glorification of wartime fascism that events like the one in a stadium make it clear in a clear the not all countries are on board critics of this event argue that the gathering provides a forum for dangerous near fascist state there is the government's failure but it is seen at the very least as being morally and politically insensitive so. now some of the international headlines this hour on the suspected it means are of one of mexico's most tori's drug cartels is not the best. one thousand five hundred but police arrested thirty three year old yeah go on friday accusing him of being the head of a gang of five killers working for a major crime ring controls the smuggling of drugs and united states from. the deadliest mess again city where more than three pounds of murders took place

doing here to who is keeping you here eventually one of the group points center provides an answer the one you like about you comes with the local housing community it happens all. over moscow is unemployed and often illegal immigrants they're forced to pave seen old in abandoned buildings if they can't they're thrown out and what about the illegality of this day the local housing committee inter shearers its earnings with the city council and a district police inspector was impossible without their consent when we took these allegations to the federal migration service did meet it it wasn't my kids' fault they wanted someone to live. central district government was even more damning confirming our suspicions and to committing the rocks goes deep inside the housing administration that's clearly did a lot of soda in criminal proceedings should be initiated and the kids should be in this to get into control course rails other officials abusing their job positions
