yes and they responded by supporting us we went to their last rally at the headquarters they marched back to the park with us and some of them slept there they're going to be in a tough struggle that's why we're getting this relationship with labor labor scenes is relieved they are i never expected when i first started contacting unions that the response would be so enthusiastic but the labor movement has been kicked around now for quite a while and they have to fight and they see people fighting and they see their fighting the same enemy and they see them reaching out this movement has shown such an eagerness to reach out to the mainstream of the american public and the unions represent the organized part of that the focus on the one percent and the first time in an american movement i don't even think in the thirty's that the communist party did this in their 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 lunch we gather tonight knowing that this generation of heroes has made the united states safer and more respected around the world thanks thanks thanks. for that you two want to get a standing ovation from both democrats and republicans just the wide view the bottom line of the building. very industrial complex which just so happens to have

invented itself in every congressional district in the country nobody really believes that the undisputed greatest player 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 to 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 to change. there is
2:33 pm
a tragedy. for far. too many families over the city. but it was not. the world. it was not the right. answer to the truth 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 go to five thousand troops 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
2:34 pm
foreign policy is morally bankrupt perhaps we should talk about money. 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. one point four trillion dollars could convert every home in america to one hundred percent solar energy. times over or it could convert every home in america to one hundred percent wind energy knowing 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 the more turn all volunteer
2:35 pm
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 oh we even had money left over in the budget to decimate two countries launch are still it is resulting in over one million innocent civilians dead and counting ask yourself how many orphans are going today clenched fists tonight in afghanistan or iraq who grow up willing to fly a plane into the building and how many trillions are we prepared to spend on avenging that. 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
2:36 pm
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 is now. 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 because.

2:38 pm
a global stage with affordable education. and it is a challenge just because they're using that whole student loan debt credit card debt when congress raises the loan limits schools respond to those increased long 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 it from. 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 i am 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 in vain carcassi the idea of do you
2:39 pm
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 to 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.

2:46 pm
somebody who was cool six years ago snuck up on a crack rock that's not on the occupy movement has become a conduit to bend you for talking about this corruption so folks that move to amend that are really in my mind. set in the bar for the critique that corporations are not persons but he's broken his speech constitutional rights are for people over eight hundred fifty six and dred scott the same supreme court so that people are property rights got a firm slavery in two thousand and ten the supreme court said property is people killed decisions i didn't see was was was was thought for some from god told them telling.

2:48 pm
thank. you all so easily he would have been high it was all my. month last round at the power monopolies have you noticed people are like this double our society should we get treated like last year with the excuse that someone's got to lose with some push for race in the wind as it's not going to go be all that they don't build on the backs of our morris brothers were told forgotten the we're all taught by our mothers to the people out there to take the big bully pulpit here is the most easy on the bull run to the pulpit parikh rocks but it'd be so much better if we just remember the corporations our creation is. somebody
2:49 pm
who really does because. the cause was for people. that. people are realizing that 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 then the you look at the military budget you know upset in the military budget the united states spends as much as the whole world combined at
2:50 pm
a time when our infrastructure is literally a deep level grade according the american society of civil engineers we get a deed in there these days threatens the future of our economy our infrastructure is going to work as a face of those two issues which are you know just war going on fear of 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 reform and room so that we see energy as you can turn roads into solar power that's where possible we like. our money ran on it right it was frightening. it was writing it wasn't it was this was our target like the rest. easier by the way. street that we. might.
2:51 pm
hear. and. they say that the occupy movement major victory to date is that we have changed the conversation and 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 well 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 cold they are super rich as a result of their active for kissing. patient in for 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
2:52 pm
than an idea are being suppressed often violently is to acknowledge that most only issues are connected to the internet or activists or through health care 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 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 here during the game for inauguration. it was
2:53 pm
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 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 you know 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 and. for a movement that is to terminally to. this mad and flux of money and politics so it's going to be
2:54 pm
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 mishka will be pushed into a corner this organism is still a baby and the narrative it will be telling in the years to come is yours to write what you wrote turn it down if you don't believe you do you feel the need to get the image of him coming to your t.v. she'll. be. indulgent. i didn't
2:55 pm
didn't. do. thankfully in the senate better myself so when they say why occupy what will your answer the first time in decades people were really discussing does the world have to be this way and how can we bring a better world and i think this historical lesson that it's too late to read about it they have to keep coming back and coming back to the bill because they knew it. and they knew they could change to lazy to actually. think something out of. i think. it was. the.
