8:10 pm
and over the last you know fifteen years have consolidated power in the united states but guarantees are you know your money is just as safe in a federal credit union as it is anywhere else it's you know guaranteed by the u.s. government up to two hundred fifty thousand dollars and more importantly the money stays in your community the federal credit unions only banks are concerned about profits the profits are shared directly with the purchase of the democratic union so you don't have to worry about your banking fees going up to pay for some fat cats huge salary ultimately any profits a come back will come back to the members of the credit union and that's exactly what people want over the last month or so since september twenty ninth over six hundred fifty thousand people across the country are finding credit unions in the move their money that's it billions and billions of dollars have moved the american people at the worst of the recession propped up the big banks they were too big to fail so in a lot of ways people moving their money right now are making sure that these banks are going to be too big to fail again and that we are going to have to bail them

8:12 pm
people who have come specially from the ok the old street demonstration to take part in the london protests let's hear what just a couple of them had to say the issues that of being raised by the people demonstrating here today are issues that millions of people around the country care about issues like tax injustice the fact that the poorest and most vulnerable are being forced to pay the highest price for a crisis the bankers crisis that they had nothing to do with most of us are getting ripped off by the powers that be by corporate america or corporate whatever it is depending on which country we're in and very often it's corporate america even if we're not in the united states we're mobilizing though for a big strike on the middle thirty's so i'm really hopeful that this movement is going to expand and eventually going to bring down the government these people are saying to the bankers and to the politicians have to go and they've been granted a stay of execution for that tented camps outside simple skippy's will they will be allowed to stay until after christmas so we can expect many more of this type of

demonstration. israel has begun deporting pro palestinian from two humanitarian boats from canada and on and that were blocked by the israeli maybe on route to gaza with a the flutie even with dozens of foreign nationals from nine different countries on board has said so from turkey and wednesday carrying medical supplies they were boarded by israeli naval forces and towed away similar protests vessels have been stormed in the past with one turkish activists shot dead by israeli marines last year causing an international outcry this comes as relations between israel and palestine have reached another load this week with israel even authorizing its military to take whatever action necessary to stop rocket fire from gaza and despite some israeli concessions on the blockade in the past year activists suffer a rough road that says the people of gaza to live in an open air prison. the problem that we have here is a humanitarian crisis but it is one that has been created by deliberate israeli policies so we need to change that policy so that palestinians are allowed to lead
8:14 pm
a normal life a dignified life and not have to live on handouts now the situation in gaza is one point five million people live in an open air prison and as a result of deliberate israeli policy have been reduced to needing handouts eighty percent of the population of gaza is food aid dependent and that's a problem but it is a political problem and therefore these flotillas are going to challenge that policy of this inhumane blockade going to the united nations as a way of the palestinian leadership saying that we need the rights of the palestinian people respected and we think that through this mechanism we will have more avenues by which to hold israel responsible for continued violation of rights and that is something that should be supported by all because in the end all of these different countries are part of a united system the united nations that is supposed to maintain world peace and defend people suman rights but it seems that no action is taken in violation of

upset about this leak but thank god and i tip my hat to these people in israel who did leak this information because it's absolute madness if you look at the geopolitical situation right now in the region an attack on iran is going to basically put gasoline on a fire there is already reached incredible temperatures so it's it's not something we can afford. and to some other news from around the world it's just one hundred fifty people have been killed and one hundred injured in a series of bomb and ghana types in nigeria the radical muslim sect boko haram has said it was responsible for the hour long attack on several targets and has promised more in the future it's assault on dumb a truce struck several targets including a police building and several churches on friday the same group also attacked a military headquarters in neighboring borno state with a triple suicide bombing. over a dozen of people are thought to have been killed in syria by time shelling in the city of homs it brings to hundreds the number of civilians reported dead in clashes

a tux hike for richer americans who demonstrators blame for the economic downturn an overhaul thinnest also known as the president has been on the streets of the big apple to see if the people agree. the general public has been vilifying the very rich lately so what does the public consider too much money this week let's talk about that more than a million is too much money yeah if someone has more than a million should they pay more in taxes yes they absolutely should yes well i want too much money so i'm not going to answer. the most ten million in two months to emerge for it to merge when one of them women one million for not i would say if people make more than a million dollars and they have bet on their bank account should they be forced to give back a moral or a moral and time outs in general interestingly i saw once that the answer the question do you have enough money to curve goes like this as your wealth increases
8:25 pm
so people who don't have a lot feel that they don't have enough. as the as people get wealthier a higher percentage of the think they have it up until they pass certain point words as you get even wealthier you want so if you made ten million dollars would you i would give some of it away it's too much money are people that don't give it away and have that much in the wrong i guess it's a personal decision i just think that if you make that much money you could share it with someone that doesn't have so much should they be forced to through taxes like they do in scandinavia maybe so because sometimes if you don't force someone to do something they're not going to do it no matter how much wealth you consider to be obscene the bottom line is when it comes to money it's hard for anyone to not want just a little bit more. next to us he examines moscow hotels for you and place some very comfortable ones where
