6:43 pm
and i can see you don't want to set me up. like this i guess. there are inherent in our civilians to get exactly what you stated above i was young i thought there'd be people. people that had nothing to do in anything.
6:44 pm
there's no. law that everybody has served in iraq anything like a platoon much as you know back. in afghanistan my mother didn't get our back. i'm a new york city my opinion your city and it. will be subpoenaed there is no british no owner and i don't see a million. was. this is. a chance delays. please retire ok let's just be honest here for a moment for some people this is and justifiably so a battle about a police state since one thousand a.d.
6:45 pm
the number of people in prison per capita in the united states has more than tripled we now in prison a greater percentage of our population than any other country in the world in fact the united states is only five percent of the world population has twenty five percent of the world's prison population in the us one in every one hundred six white males aged eighteen or over is incarcerated for hispanic males that number is one in thirty six and one in fifteen black males over eighteen is currently in jail . between one thousand nine hundred seven and two thousand and seven state spending on incarceration related expenses increased one hundred twenty seven percent while spending on higher education during that same period rose a mere twenty percent is it that much more profitable to jail or population than it is to educate and. i think that's a great read and the nand their head lock arms now you know why take me to you know
6:46 pm
if you want to continue to do this i read about it joe you know watch you continue to tell my brother my sister my mom's going to body else that looks like me and i read and i think it should be a scary thing not just for those oh you know people of color minority can but out of us know that we have to live in a society like that. ok so depending on your geographic location your everyday reality may reflect the police state we live in two larger or smaller degrees but at least you have your health right at least you have your home. already made everytime there are issues like that which are so pfizer we question our mother. of every two thousand one l.l. am profiting no matter what. kind of. action taking place right now. by cameroon right. thank you you're welcome pal sometimes it demanding change on a large scale has to start with small groups of individuals saying enough is enough
6:47 pm
like this group of individuals and western massachusetts who gather in an attempt to stop the bank of america from executing yet another foreclosure. thanks it's. a lack of government regulations gave banks enough rope to operate like cowboys in the wild west and they responded by lassoing homeowners with these predatory lending practices when the housing bubble burst bank of america got bailed out and those with underwater mortgages were sold out so that c.e.o.'s like brian moynihan could collect the year end bonus of over nine million dollars a week lou with that they have enough money to pay for a reasonable war gauge at today's values so this is something that all of can stand behind we believe that when folks have you know a hall and that they should be able to stay in that home and it's not like they're not willing to pay this is the weirdest movement i've ever worked in this way and the foreclosure movement because we are begging people to take money and they won't take it of course occupy hardly invented foreclosure defenses people like grace and
6:48 pm
i foreclosure organizations have been toiling away at this for years but when occupy wall street went to east new york in december to march occupy out more and more people around the country started to realize that there was another way to make their. thank. god. i get that back. where i got that right i think and sometimes demanding change in a large scale starts with even smaller groups dr margaret flowers is among the nation's leading advocates for true health care reform health care reform that would eliminate the for profit insurance companies and provide medicare for all individuals in the united states a former pediatrician and congressional fellow dr flowers worked within the system for years after the farm passed i was traveling around the country and people kept saying how are we going to get single payer i was speaking around various states and and i stole it kind of came together like oh well unless you know as a as
6:49 pm
a movement even though we're in the majority of the population wants a single payer system we're not going to be strong enough as a single issue. kind of movement to have that kind of political power and health care is really part of a broader social economic justice movement anyway and so we really need to come together bring our strengths together combine our strengths to have the power and so i know this in my talks i was starting to shift more into you know calling for a broader movement as a core organizer of the october two thousand and eleven coalition that occupied freedom plaza in washington d.c. dr flowers thought fit to attend as an uninvited guest a wall street comes to washington for health care conference i crashed the party with her i doubt they would let my big camera and so i had to shoot the video this impromptu meeting with the real death panels on my cell phone was it how can i doubt we need a national health care is it did i accept
6:50 pm
