them and then saying that he has to keep working because he's the only one who can get rid of the roaches people like hillary clinton who support funding brutal jihad as rebel groups to overthrow governments to somehow bring about stability and democracy are either dismally stupid or consciously running a very brutal con game but that's just my opinion. that's something. i work for i think my father is seen to be way you and an assistant to the man i'm speaking with here vice president of seat anyway district one chris shelton one of the groups c.w.a. represents the rising workers and as of june two thousand and twelve the horizon
5:31 am
workers he represents have been working without a contract for over a year except this round of contracts is different the rising is trying to break the union everything my father worked for his whole career could be gone within his life so many of the bush people who are me walks up like the recognize that we are the not the same kind of a time of record profits of rising disaster the very same people that have made a lucrative and a rich corporation that they now want to you will benefit acceptable from up they want to feel their eyes that it should be the poster child for corporate greed because of all the money they make and what they're trying to do to us and everybody else at the bar you say it's about saving a million dollars next year but what do you think that this car negotiation is really about this car negotiation is about destroying our standard of living this is cooperation is trying to get what they want that they've been trying to get for the last twenty five years and we cannot let democrats right occupy wall street's message and on message or exactly. same corporate greed is destroying this country
5:32 am
that we cannot let it slip that we have built very close ties with the communication workers before september seventeenth we were already supporting the farm workers 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 sees 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 they're 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
5:33 am
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 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 thanks.
5:34 am
that you do want to get a standing ovation from both democrats and republicans just from a lie that 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 rate as they are 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 they wish members of the norwegian nobel committee. 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
5:35 am
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. a crime. down. into the. city. but it was mass. the world. it was not a. good feeling. i started in iraq in two thousand and four in two thousand and six i was in the second battle of office are enough illusion november of two thousand and four as a human being and as a person who has a heart i can't lie to myself or anybody else and say that we had a reason to be there that there's a reason for the million iraqis that died to five thousand troops said that we say we're the gray. this country in the world but we go and kill you know people in
5:36 am
their country but we don't stop genocide in africa we don't help people that we can't help that would be the greatest country in the world if we can save a million people instead of killing a million people if you're not convinced our foreign policy is morally bankrupt perhaps we should talk about money taxpayers in the united states have paid one point four trillion dollars for total war spending in iraq in afghanistan since two thousand and one never wondered what one point four trillion dollars would buy well it could be the end you will energy costs for every household in america for five years but i hear you saying that would not do very much to decrease our dependence on foreign oil there enough 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 nine times over for groceries for everyone in the country free for two years or to
5:37 am
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 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 are going to bed 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 little man.
5:38 am
do everything right 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 not have 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 in the. the.
5:39 am
god of. the. the. year ago anybody would have predicted that. you would always. be out of the streets in new york city. something is real journalists here.
5:40 am
oh. we'll. see children ok. hold. on a global stage with affordable education can you risk it is a miscarriage of justice is it fair to hold a student loan debt them to its credit card debt when congress raises 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 job 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 and i think our education system hasn't caught up to our economy yet and that's one of the problems in that that's where this problem is coming and that's why people
5:41 am
are speaking up that's why that i'm hiring 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 suv a car seat the idea of you do you debtors union is based on the labor union model and what they did effectively when our economy was very different when there was a 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.
5:42 am
great code like this you know it's really about do we believe in it but it's you know we imagine in other words just all these effects are so massive whether it's b.p. dumped a bunch of oil the. tar sands i think of the size of florida this point in alberta i was really interested in the tar sands protests this summer because to see thousand plus people getting arrested like that willfully it was pretty amazing that a message to all of you. is tar sands oil is not at the gulf you know you get tired santayana you ask to destroy it and so i think that you know finds out the pipeline but what happens after that and 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
5:43 am
going to magically go itself because we stop a pipeline and the thing about the pipeline and one reason that makes this so urgent is that that nasa scientist james stamps and the brokaw boring are actually a few decades back or whatever says the piper i mean it will be. game over means out in. inhabitable or. the. we speak your language anybody will not advance. news programs and documentaries and spanish what matters to you. we can use
5:44 am
a little tuna to hang those stories. you hear. all teach spanish find out more visit eye to eye ball tito's comb. we. think that he believes he's reading it. and i think that until the people who are the naysayers come down and actually get a false. narrative there's. a good dose of rarity her still steve bruce isn't worth a dime and we want people to be able to use the lift it's going to take time. we can't force it we're not ready. because we see a better world. because of the. you know this organization the second that any american dreams. were created.
5:45 am
was. put in a fiction you know god obviously that's a dimension at the end you know they see 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 don't you think that by now we can expect them to get off it on their own even on that in the smoking a crack rock. i am trying to be very easily addictive
5:46 am
somebody who was cool six years ago snuck up on a cracker this is not on the occupy movement has become a conduit to venue for talking about this corruption and so folks that move to amend there are really in my mind. set in the bar for the critique that corporations are not persons 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 killed decisions i didn't say that was was was fun person from god told them telling.
5:47 am
them the wow. combat was a culmination of individuals like you to the jews coming together with a secular purpose. to where they come to kill and then i tell a clear cut his person they do not have been here inalienable right hello that money is not political speech thanks to ben fawley he was committing tempo's doctrines must be abolished we cannot overturn could be punished and still our wealthy individuals just didn't have enough money oh thank. you.
5:48 am
the easy way he would have found a positive ha it was all mine it was the last city around it's a power monopoly have you noticed people like this double our society should we get treated like last year with the excuse that someone's got to lose with some corporation there with as if it's not going to go be all that they don't build on the backs of our morris brothers we're told forgotten the phrase we're all taught by our mothers should have been the people out there to take over the pale coolest well the harry is the most easily oslo's drug they call his characters rock like to be so much better if we just remember the corporations our creation is.
5:49 am
somebody who really does because it is at least those people who cause that was. that 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 in the we look at the military budget. but you see spends as much as the . body. at a time when our infrastructure is literally
5:50 am
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 falling apart as of the face of those two issues which are you know just war going on here the one percent in the military industrial complex suddenly we are solutions to all the issues really there is money to invest in the new resisting the economy no selling his money to reform at whom so they're not wasting energy you can turn roads into solar panels that's not possible we like. our money for free i don't have it. right. writing. this and it was this was our target like the bridge. here. we were right.
5:51 am
here. 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 participation and or their willingness to be accessories to criminally rig the homicidal force of a system and what the occupy movement has done and why people armed with nothing more than an ideology. the suppression often violently has to acknowledge that most
5:52 am
all of the issues are connected to antiwar 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 loosened 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 no education. it was
5:53 am
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 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 a good close to. this mad influx of money and politics so it's going to be a really scary. contrasts and the challenge of this movement is to create
5:54 am
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 living breathing multi and force that refuses to find me she 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's your alternative that isn't exactly to do you think needs you to do you get the image coming to your kitty still. to be disembodied until the. book.
5:55 am
comes out thankfully in the senate better myself so when they say why occupy what will your answers 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 is still a little less than the out there who would like to read about it they have to keep coming back and coming back a bit because they knew it. and they knew they could change to crazy to actually think something out of.
5:56 am
so. bloody. listen live. live.
5:57 am
live. live live. live live live .
5:58 am
