they're mass work i don't even think they identify the enemy as the ruling class mr speaker. mr vice president. members of congress distinguished guests and fellow americans last month i went to andrews air force base and welcome home some of our last troops to serve in iraq. together we offered a final proud salute to the colors under which more than a million of our fellow citizens bought. and several thousand gave their lives we gather tonight knowing that this generation of heroes has made the united states safer and more respected around the world thank you thank you thank you thank you thank. you to want to get a standing ovation from both democrats and republicans just because i'm alive at

the bottom line of the military industrial complex which just so happens that it itself and every congressional district in the country nobody really believes that the undisputed greatest mayor of violence in the world actually makes us safer and more respected i mean come on that kind of attitude is not going to earn anyone any nobel peace prizes or anything distinguish members of the norwegian nobel committee it's citizens of america. and citizens of the world. i receive this honor with deep gratitude and great humility george orwell would have had a hard time coming up with this are we really this delusional you see the more honest we are with ourselves about exactly what our foreign policy is the better chance we have to stop some of the truly horrific conditions it visits upon many of the people of the world so say it with me the us foreign policy is

a blowback inducing homicidal bull in a cultural religious and geo political china shop change. there was handed. down. to the family. sitting. around. the world. it was not right. on such a trip i started in iraq in two thousand and four and two thousand and six i was in the second bad. enough allusion november of two thousand and four as a human being and as a person who has a heart i can't lie to myself anybody else and say that we had a reason to be there that there's a reason for the million iraqis that died in the five thousand through said that we say we're the greatest country in the world but we go into you know people in their country but we don't stop genocide in africa we don't help people that we can help

that would be the greatest country in the world if we can save a million people instead of killing them and people if you're not convinced our foreign policy is morally bankrupt perhaps we should talk about money taxpayers in the united states had need one point four trillion dollars for total war spending in iraq and afghanistan since two thousand and one never wondered what one point four trillion dollars would buy well it could be the annual energy costs for every household in america five years but i hear you saying that would not do very much to decrease our dependence on foreign oil there are enough. one point four trillion dollars could convert every home in america to one hundred percent solar energy. over or it could convert every home in america to one hundred percent wind energy nine times over for groceries for everyone in the country free for two years or to provide scholarships to every college student in america and award them a fifty five hundred dollar grant seven times over with more turn all volunteer

firefighters into full time employees and pay them a full salary for twenty three years or pay the full time salaries of every public school teacher for the next six years instead we took one point four trillion dollars pay a small black ops team to hunt track and kill osama bin laden. we even had money left over in the budget to decimate two countries launch hostilities resulting in over one million innocent civilians dead and counting and ask yourself how many orphans going to bed with clenched fists tonight in afghanistan or iraq who grow up willing to fly a plane into the building and how many trillions more we prepared to spend on avenging that little man. did not. do everything go to school and not just go to school but excel in school work

really really hard and i graduated and really had to feeling a lot of the time very consciously in my head that. i might as well. you know i mean. was there reason for me to be in debt good evening of all the time bombs on the american economy set to explode with dire consequences this is a big one staggering debt from student loans everyone is told a college education is a way to get ahead college tuitions though keep going up so does the borrowing and we just hit an awful milestone our nation's combined student loan debt has now hit . one trillion dollars that averages out to twenty four thousand per student it's now larger than credit card debt in this country and it comes just as an entire generation is just starting out i have to.

thank. god. i. think that a year ago anybody would have predicted that. november of two thousand you would have. people out of the streets in new york city. because something is we journalists. oh. we'll do whatever he has so many.

people might be on a global stage with affordable education. teligent justice that there is in fact the whole student loan debt credit card debt when congress raises the loan limits schools respond to those increased loan limits by raising tuition because they think that students can afford to pay more because they're actually allowed more money nobody really has the option to expect to get a comfortable john. and not go to college we don't have an unskilled workforce anymore we are for the workforce that we have right now it's socially irresponsible not to go to school because the entire workforce is predicated on higher education i think our education system hasn't caught up to our economy and that's one of the problems and that's that's where this problem is coming and that's why people are speaking up that's why that why i'm here there are no bankruptcy protections for any student loans this is the only one and all of us history that you can't ever

default on you can ever discharge this r.c. the idea of debtors union is based on a labor union model and what they did effectively when our economy was very different when there was so-called unskilled labor they negotiated with the factories for better working conditions so that they could go back to work just that same way you do you debtors union could renegotiate a better contractor arrangement with our lenders so that we can repay our loans it's employing an autonomous strategy of refusal so you were fused to do something you're saying no to something in favor of making things better. how do. you.

know great. you know it's really about who we believe and the truth and the sooner we come to know the we'll just all these effects are somehow also whether it's b.p.a. you know. the tar sands i think that the size of florida is from an alberta i was really interested in the tar sands protests this summer because to see thousand plus people getting arrested like that willfully is pretty amazing fred a mess. all of you to tell you here is tar sands oil is not at the gulf in order to get tar sands oil you ask to destroy the art and so i think that you know fine stop the pipeline but what happens after that you know another standoff with big oil i think so i think so i don't think it's the environment's going to magically go itself because we stop the high price and then the thing about the pipeline and one

reason that makes this so urgent is that that nasa scientist james taylor the pro quo boring originally few decades back. says the pipeline is. game over i mean inside and out inhabitable are. wealthy british style. markets why not. come to. find out what's really happening to the global economy with mike stronger for a no holds barred look at the global financial headlines tune in to conjure reports on our. mission in three cretaceous three sons

four charges three major and three. three stooges free. old free broadcast quality video for your media project free media oh god our teton tom. writes on an international we should not bomb iran please keep in touch and bring the troops all we should. end the war in afghanistan tomorrow. persecutors a little closer. let's repeal the patriot act i'm. sure we speak your language another day of. school music programs and documentaries

in spanish matters to you breaking news a little turn to tip angles kid news stories. you hear. it all teach spanish find out more visit. book.

we. think that he believes we're reading it as we go. and i think that until the people who are the naysayers come down and actually get it all. there's. a good host of people rarely who still holds to you this isn't worth a dime and we want people to be able to use the if it's to take time.

we can't force we're not going to be good. because we see a better world. and that is organization of the second that any american dreams. were created. was. put in a fiction you know. i hear or see this item event at the end you know they show you all this stuff and then they sit around somebody who has issues and problems and they talk about you know how badly that person has done and what they're going to do if they don't change their behavior and for us we're dealing with folks who have

a serious addiction to corporate money but. now we can expect them to get off it on their own even on that in the smoking a crack cocaine of money. only trying to be very easily addictive somebody who was cool six years ago snuck up on a crack rock this is not the occupy movement has become a conduit to venue for talking about this corruption and so folks that move to. in my mind. set in the bar for the critique that corporations are not persons property not speech constitutional rights are for people over eighteen fifty six and dred scott the same supreme court so that people are property dred scott affirm slavery in two thousand cannot the supreme court said property is people killed decisions i didn't say

was was was that was fun for some for the mom told them telling them how about cutting the migration was a coalition not individuals organisations coming together with a secular purpose to donate to where they come to show not tell a clear cut his person they didn't know how to begin hearing e-mailing about oh. money is not political speak to us. today and how he's coming to top post doc things must be abolished we cannot overturn the functionality and still allow wealthy individuals

just didn't have enough money oh they were. oh. oh oh. oh oh. oh oh oh. oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh. these are the he would ha ha ha it. was a monstrosity around the power monopolies have you notice she's build a life is our society chasing the good swedish like us use the excuse that someone's got to listen put for a show the wind as it is not the old they don't build on the backs of morris brothers we're told forgotten the thing we're all taught by our mothers has been

the people are the ones the payoff. for all the here we have the most yes we are all a bullfrog to the small of his. rocks but so much better if we just remember the way since. school was really cause. because it was because. it was. bad and people are realizing it very least that the way our economic system currently runs is not democratic it's not beneficial to the vast majority of people and till we have some kind of economic democracy where in the past majority of people in their communities and in their workplaces have more decisions over what

these corporations do if we want to have corporations and all then political democracy is a sham and in the we look at the military budget. neutral but you see spends as much as the whole world somebody at a time when our infrastructure is literally a deep level grade according the american society of civil engineers we get deep in there these days is the future of our economy very infrastructure is going to work and so if you face of those two issues which are you just going on fear the one percent. in the military industrial complex suddenly we are solutions to the issues he's selling his money to invest in the new green sustainable economy no selling his money to reform a room so they're not wasting energy you can turn roads into solar panels that's not possible we like. our money ran on it it was frightening. frightening. that he said it

was to smother a target like the president. there are easier like the red streak that we are right now. here. they say that the occupy movements major victory to date is that we have changed the conversation that people are now debating issues such as western equality at this point i think we can all agree there is no debate there is inequity when it comes to wealth period full stop and it is growing and the super rich are not super rich because of some force of nature like summer morphing into fall or heat always

going to the polls they are super rich as a result of their active participation in or their willingness to be accessories to criminally rig the homicidal force of a system what the occupy movement has done and why people armed with nothing more than an idea are being suppressed often violently is to acknowledge that most all of the issues are connected to anti-war activists or through health care reform advocates or housing or labor rights advocates will thank the reform advocates you name it are now all shining a light on the root cause of inequity. see our foreign policy does in fact limit our options when it comes to health care reform a shareholder capitalism one that demands growth every quarter is directly contributing to the assault on collective bargaining issues the american dream itself the way it is understood by many as a mistress rags to riches anyone could be a millionaire greed is good grab the most toys before you die each rose should be used and i used for the greater good and the birth of

a new american dream based on equity sustainability and the general welfare of the people should be brought into being and by people i mean people not corporations i was out here during the game for no education. it was a martin luther king day. two thousand people total strangers were out of each other on the streets were having conversations across class and race lines and all the sudden we felt oh. well so this new better you can't there's no messiah going to get elected by this system and deliver hope and change we can believe in so how will the occupy movement that has wisely stayed away from promoting political parties or individual politicians navigate the minefield of the potentially co-opting force that is the presidential election cycle now this year is just going to be nuts we've never seen this much money spent on a political process in the history of the world. and this comes at a time for

a movement that is determinately to. this mad influx of money and politics so it's going to be a really scary contrast and the challenge of this movement is to create a counter narrative is to show that the justice of its cause is more interesting than anything these candidates can put on television i mentioned at the beginning that this movie is an invitation for you to join the arctic. but there are no membership dues no papers to cite all that is required is the willingness to see the world as it is and decide that you are going to be part of the solution occupy is less of an organization and more of an organism a living breathing multi and force that refuses to find a niche will be pushed into a corner of this organism is still a baby and the narrative it will be telling in the years to come is yours to write

what's your alternative that isn't exactly do you think needs you to get the ball and it can come into your kitty feel. guilty if you can't just sit in judgment. didn't you. just smile and. thankfully in the senate better myself so when they say why occupy what will your answers the first time in decades people will really discussing the world have to be this way and how can we bring a better world into this historical lessons about life and freedom i still have a continent that is coming back a bit because. i think who think the same thing plays for the next thing from them and.
