a better life comes to a tragic and for the great strides of u.s. border. in the wake of friday's failed rocket launch north korea is gearing up to mark a century since its wartime leader john statues of kim il sung and son kim jong il . weeping crowd in from yang but amid the celebrations north korea has been deprived of american food a response to the book and. see when something is still sparked world condemnation from. north korea is banned from. the things that. the weapons. experts. think poses a threat to anyone. in many respects north korea is technologically quite advanced and has been for many years for many decades its major problem of course is money
1:17 am
because after billion dollars to launch one of these rockets that's a lot of money in north korea they don't have a lot of money to continually test these things so failure frankly is more likely than success on the side of a threat does north korea really represent a threat well frankly it doesn't have much in the way. of military at this point of course has a very large army we're talking about a military that is declined rather precipitously relative to the south korean military and certainly relatively to the u.s. military the nuclear program was in some sense an attempt to level the field the fact that it doesn't have much of a nuclear program and it's held to task neither of which were particularly successful tried to put a satellite into orbit hasn't been successful that suggests that this attempt to level the playing field is proof represents for north korea kind of

1:19 am
a plan but buyers beware was not as it seems chancellor george osborne wants to bring back never ending loans dumping the government's crippling debt on to future generations it'll still be pouring and this is money george and friends won't have to pay back sounds too good to be true that's because it is putting their they stage their elements of it this is a good time for the u.k. tax by families to be issued but that begs the question of who would buy it if it's a good time to issue them then it's not a good time to buy it would be buyers at the taxpayer's themselves shouldering the government's past one trillion pound debt pile by lending it money also on off a bonds that will mature after one hundred years these workers if the government taking out a very generous mortgage benefiting from its current rock bottom interest rates for another century bad news for whoever is lending the money the only way you can actually make money here is if there was no inflation between now and the year
1:20 am
twenty one twelve a very optimistic outlook take the last hundred years for example if i did bested one hundred pounds back in one thousand and twelve at a rate of three point four percent say and this year it would have turned into almost three thousand pounds sounds ok in itself but it's nothing compared to what i would have got just from inflation which would have seen one hundred pounds balloon it's almost nine thousand so who would fall for such a cheap trick well no one of course but that's where the government gets its own investment rules would force pension funds to buy against their will not exactly fair play but this is a monopoly with only one winner this is what happens. when governments into the risks are enormous you know the risks of buying a one hundred year. gilt from the u.k. government on historical evidence given inflation patterns in the past would

suggest that. anything close to current yield level of we would lose money on the last time britain issued neverending loans was after world war one a massive deficit still burning a hole in the taxpayers' pocket even today and now this government's doing the same offloading its own mountain of debt to be someone else's problem might have been it r t london. many thousands of people try to start a new life in the us but the door is not open to everyone that can prove fatal hundreds of illegal immigrants go missing every year and there's no longer than there are reports the body count is rising. the wind blows through the rugged sonora desert in arizona helping shape its rocky valleys and spectacular peaks it's a treasure of the american southwest but this is also

a frontier land where a deadly conflict is underway. it's almost a mass disaster situation the disaster which doctor has faces is the growing number of unidentified bodies being found along arizona's southern desert bodies stacked high in a fight for space and perhaps even a proper burial one day it becomes not so much an effort to determine why that person died it becomes an effort to sort out who's who were inside of the pima county cooler at the medical examiner's office which has the capacity to hold hundreds of bodies now this facility is much larger than other places around the country pacifically because of the issue of bodies being found along the border even so lack of storage is a major headache three hundred summer means we had a refrigerated truck parked out here. to help us with overflow some arrives he

expects the one needed again the department of homeland security recently boasted about the sharp drop in border patrol rest suggesting the government's crackdown has helped curb illegal immigration and migrant deaths ever mean consistently high so if the border is absolutely deadly and more than six thousand have died along the us mexico border since one thousand nine hundred ninety four according to human rights groups that's when operation peak keeper a program for defying the international crossing with high priced benzene thousands of agents and high tech surveillance was launched border agents call this area below us there are a place where migrants commonly try this. to get into the u.s. for the scores we try to make the crossing here there are many others who choose a much more treacherous and sometimes deadly route into the u.s. policymakers start pushing the immigrant flow to the desert would deter migration
1:24 am
instead it has led to what some call a death trap internationally migration is. there's attempts to control migration through the same tactics militarization through building walls and we see them in various places and india and pak and see this in health and in israel you've seen disastrous wall attempts. in germany many remains found in the desert are merely bone fragments making them difficult to identify you know there are cases remains of the missing are never found leaving hundreds perhaps thousands of families wondering what happened to their loved ones during their journey north the reality is militarizing borders does not control migration while politicians argue over who can spend the most money to fortify the border hundreds more john. chasing the american dream here at the pima county morgue in tucson arizona where

among the lindo archie. the internet has really opened up a world of knowledge and learning the way you are using technology to communicate language skills that don't think is. next to see if people are taking to grabber. in this information sharing digital age is it possible we're dumbing down and not intellectually advancing our society this week let's talk about that do you think it's making society smarter or dumber and dumber why is that because people use the worst of the do stupid things smarter. information sharing of information immediately which i think is really important but there's a lot of misinformation being shared to people on the internet they think it must

be true oh i hope. we all reply a teacher's so we used to have children. i mean pupils at school and sometimes they only copied on internet with a subject they had to to do for law and and sometimes they copy stuff that's just not true because the internet is and always right right right we don't look for it and they larry's. i think yes there are some bushes are considering making books digitally that have pictures and animations instead of just words now do you think that that's going to have an effect is that. all of the literature is worth reading you don't. write so why are they doing that because people don't want to read. do you think that's a product of the information and. i think every generation stories there are always
1:27 am
been people who didn't like to read that much arison can make you smarter or dumber it depends how you grew from you take it what do you think the youth of today is doing with it. i think it can mean years and use it as a game to play and they really can the to use the holes as advantages do you text a lot. yeah do you taxed you or y. o. u. for the word you. just you like i showed in everything yeah that would make me dumber in school to. take you with me in school so you think you're not spelling as well as you say oh now doesn't it scare you the bats the world over living in yeah i kind o. know we're young so we don't we don't think about it whether or not eat think this digital age is dumbing down or raising up our society the bottom line is there's probably not much we can do about it anyway because the internet isn't going
