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 to want to get a standing ovation from both democrats and republicans just the wide at the bottom line of the military industrial complex which just so happens to have invented

itself in 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 didn't change. there was handed.

down. to the family. sitting. around. the world. it was not right. i served in iraq in two thousand and four and two thousand and six i was in the second battle of. 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 troops said 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. and united states have 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 for 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 the 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 ladin oh 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 ask yourself how many orphans is going today 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 then you. can 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 the 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 was. thinking that if your go anybody could have predicted that. number two thousand you would have. people out of the streets in new york city. because something is gee we journalists here. oh it's just the. he has so many bright. young people might be on the global stage with affordable education.

and it is a miscarriage of justice that there was in fact the whole student loan debt credit card debt that 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. 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 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 just charge this bankruptcy the idea is to you 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 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. write code like this you know it's really about who we believe and about to open

this year we. just saw these so far so whether it's 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. no you tell your is tar sands oil is not enough to go in order to get tar sands oil out of ground to destroy the ark and so i think that you know find something pipeline but what happens after that you know i know there's a standoff with big oil i think so i think so i don't think it's the environment 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 hansen broke with worry originally

a few decades back. says the pipeline is it will be game over game over means i didn't come on you know how to boil right. more news today violence is once again flared up. and these are the images the world has been seeing from the streets of canada. china corporations rule the day.

of the six america votes for its next president. take the wheel as the u.s. drives into the feature. get the news the mainstream misses with up close election coverage the u.s. election up close. and. secret laboratory was able to build the world's most sophisticated.

mission to teach the creation of. this is why you should watch only. the hosts of the twenty one certificate. see. such. a. dog. days it. takes. to see if it's so true.

excuse. me. that they believe to be creating it as we go. and i think that until the people who are the naysayers. and actually get. their

narrative there's. a close they still cannot see her still stinging criticism. of the dutch. and we want people to be able to live in the same time. but we can't force we're not ready. because we see in their. field of vision. it is organization of the center for the new american dream. were created. i. can still put in a pinch you know i don't see this intervention at the end you only see all the same

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 was now we can expect them to get off it on their own even on that and the smoking a crack cocaine of money was i mean crack rock can be very easily addictive somebody who was cool six years ago snuck up on a crack rock this time i know occupy movement has become a conduit. venue for talking about this corruption and so folks that move to amend that are really in my mind i. said in the bar for the critique that corporations are not persons but he's property not speech and constitutional rights are for people over eight hundred fifty six and dred scott the same supreme

court so that people are property dred scott affirm slavery in two thousand and ten the supreme court said property is people write those decisions i mean see was was was was bought for some time don't tell me i'm telling. you the wow who was in the was a coalition because individuals are getting the issues coming together with a secular purpose. to where they come to you know and then like to make it clear cut i just heard that they do not have been hearing about oh. money here is not political speech

thank god we're handing them today and how he's come. tempo's doctrines must be abolished he cannot overturn the functionality and still the out the individual just didn't cut it enough the money how. i. feel because he's the way he would have found a positive ha it was all biased the law could be months plus if he looked around at the power monopolies have you noticed people like this double our society safe we get treated like let's use with the excuse that someone's got to lose was somewhat

for racing the wind as it's not going to be all that they don't build on the backs of our morris brothers were all forgotten the stage will all come out by our mothers have been the people out there do they still have the pale coolest well the harry has the most usually all of those brothers who they call his african rock but it'd be so much better if we just remember the corporations our creation is. somebody who really does because it is at least those people who believe that was how. little people. know how. 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 kill 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 then you look at the military budget the upsurge in the military budget that uses it as much as the whole world can buy at a time when our infrastructure is literally a deep level grade for the american society of civil engineers we get a deed in there this is written is the future of our economy their infrastructure is going to work and so if you face of those two issues which are you know just war going on fear the one percent in the military industrial complex suddenly your solutions to all the issues i mean there's money to invest in the new resisting the economy you know certainly there's money to reformers whom so that we see energy

you can turn roads into solar power that's not possible we think that's why we have our money ran on it it was frightening. it was frightening. it was to slowly target like the rest of you. you're right it was. street where we were right. here. and it was you know. 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 wealth inequality 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 cold 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 only issues are connected into war activists who are through healthcare reform advocates or housing or labor rights advocates will banks the reform advocates you name it are now all shining a light on the root cause of inequity you 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 can be a millionaire greed is good grab the most toys before you die each owes should be euthanized 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 good in foreign occupation. it was a martin luther king day and 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 some of us knew better than you can 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. we're 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 to terminally 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 occupy movement but there are no membership dues no papers to sign 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 me she will be pushed into a corner of this organism is still a baby and the narrative that will be telling in the years to come is yours to write what you all turn it in if you talk to somebody just to get the audience you need to do you have a living with him coming to your kitty here. to get him to sit in judgment that. he didn't didn't. do. 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 does the world have to be this like and how can we bring a better world and i think this historical lessons about kids who like to read

about it they have to keep coming back and coming back i believe because they knew it. and they knew they could see. actually playing from the anti gun to.
