a slick u.s. town struggles to remove rivers of oil from its streets after a pipeline spews more than ten thousand barrels of crude. just under one reasonable u.k. government widely criticized housing benefit leaving millions with a spare room out of pocket. deadly printer american firearms and p.c.'s on the verge of creating a three d. printed began raising fears that getting a weapon will simply click and print. news on much more twenty four seven year with kerry just. the streets over us town in the state of arkansas have been deluged by over ten thousand barrels of crude oil

after an exxon mobil pipeline burst on friday around two dozen homes have been evacuated with some residents forced to stay away for several more days when a cleanup operation continues auntie's washington correspondent and has the details now. exxon mobil is naturally trying to downplay environmental concerns they're not saying exactly how much oil spilled onto the streets of that neighborhood in arkansas but the company says it has already collected more than twelve thousand barrels of oil mixed with water from the affected area not clear how much of it was water though twenty two homes were evacuated there as they're still cleaning up the pipeline that was carrying canadian heavy crude to the south of the u.s. this is the country's gulf coast refineries this latest spill response from critics of the proposed keystone x.l. pipeline the keystone x.l. pipeline would carry eight hundred thousand barrels per day just to compare the pipe that leaked in arkansas can carry around ninety thousand barrels

a day so the consequences of a leak could be devastating the keystone pipeline would also carry canadian heavy crudes to u.s. refineries in the south the project doesn't have the final green light from the administration just yet but the oil giants involved are pushing the administration very hard to go ahead with it saying it will bring down fuel costs in the u.s. trans canada is first key still lining the deal was spilled the a dozen times just in its first year of operation the company of course says the new keystone x.l. will be so much better but people know from experience how devastating consequences of an oil spill can be and how hard it is to clean up this is certainly not the first incident of course everyone remembers the disaster in the gulf of mexico in twenty ten when after an explosion and he had been leaking oil on the ocean floor for several months before the well was tapped an estimated four point nine million

barrels of oil had leaked into the gulf that three years later the call is still not free in july two thousand and ten a pipeline by church speed more than twenty thousand barrels of canadian tar sands crude oil into the michigan waterway so this happens all the time just last week the government suggests that exxon most. paid a fine of one point seven million dollars over pipeline safety violations and that was for an oil spill two years ago in the yellowstone river in montana exxon has a month to contest the violations many believe that while giant get away with violations like that all too often in the west and all it takes is a team of really good lawyers to do that which the company certainly have and that at the end of the day it's the people of that will pick up the slack in washington and then a check. well his latest oil spill in a small u.s. town has once again raised questions about the dangers of using older pipelines to transport increasingly large amounts of oil across the continent let's now take

a look at america's oil transit infrastructure we can see here. more than half of the nation's pipelines were built in one nine hundred fifty s. nine hundred sixty s. according to the u.s. department of transportation others at the pegasus oil pipeline which burst in arkansas were constructed even earlier soon after it will go to and billions of dollars worth of oil flows through these pipelines every year now in twenty eleven the big five all firms that sex on mobile world. phillips and chevron how to combine the revenue of nearly two trillion dollars when gresh new reports put the turnover at more than ten percent of the country's g.d.p. but this spiked huge profits the government and the corporations seem reluctant to update the pipeline infrastructure and environmental consultant richard styler says the arkansas pipeline is among those which of long past their sell by date. there's

no excuse whatsoever for oil pipelines to be anything over thirty years old or general design life is maybe twenty to thirty years there's been several skills about six or seven of this heavy deluded bit timid it's called dil bit which is the tar sand oil which is so the thick it can't be transported through a pipeline unless it's cut with condensate and benzene exxon has shown time and time again that they are not willing to accept responsibility legitimate financial responsibility for their actions however negligent they are they got out of the alaska spell with you know about a billion dollars paid to private thirty thousand private litigants that should have been by many of their estimations much much more than that so they have a history of short changing responses next on the mobile spokesman said no problems were detected when the almost sixty five year old pipeline was last checked the company was fined in twenty ten for not inspecting another portion of

the same route frequently enough global trends for casa turn so then to predicts it will be more oil spill saying u.s. is investing more in its was overseas improving its eroding infrastructure back home. one after another there's atrocity after atrocity whether it's all i will big oil or banks too big to fail the word justice in america is being misspelled it's j u.s.t. the us just us not them look what happened with the gulf of mexico it's been destroyed for how many probably you know how many hundreds of years the stuff dozens of the vapid rate look at the united states infrastructure according to the american society of civil engineers it's going to take an estimated three trillion dollars just to bring the american infrastructure system up to par that's not improving it that's just keeping it from breaking down further the united states

has more important things to do than worry about the infrastructure worry about spilled oil it has wars to fight overseas so we're going to see more and more of this because you have to understand who regulates this it's not being regulated these are very low level regulatory agencies that control or oil and of course there's that revolving door all things are connected and the connection is corporations are running the show. well just ahead we find out how the phrase hot off the press is really about to take on a new deadly meaning as we report on how three d. printing could be twisted to produce firearms at home. runs out of touch study reveals one servant british m.p.'s has never had a real job perhaps on politics and trauma take a look at the u.k.'s political rich list. and with

a growing number of detainees on hunger strike at guantanamo an outcry in support of the protest is being heard from the infamous detention center hundreds of activists and relatives of some ninety yemeni prisoners held in a camp demonstrated outside the u.s. embassy in the capital so no they're demanding the prisoners be released and spent more than a decade behind bars without trial many prisoners are among those on hunger strike and make the largest contingent of the one hundred sixty six inmates their lawyers say the hunger strike in guantanamo is putting some of the detainees knives at risk accusing us of florence's of downplaying the actual number of those refusing food. reports now. they're calling for for the majority of those who are actually confined and get mobile jordi of those inmates are actually from yemen and most of them have been there for more than a decade ever since the invasion of afghanistan by the united states even the

yemeni government itself has actually issued a request to the u.s. government asking it to send the yemeni prisoners to sanaa the capital of yemen so they could at least be tried or held there or they are here already for possibly hearing to be held there as well but that request has been heard or at least it hasn't been hasn't received any response from washington so the people when we have it of course are outraged at their compatriots who as you have as we have mentioned how some of them have been cleared of all charges are being held in prison and they're starving themselves. just to prove their point and these are not the only protests that we have seen across the region you may say there's also been numerous protests in kuwait on sunday now there are two kuwaiti nationals being held that get smoke. out there both they're both of them have participated in a hunger strikes and given all before and both of them have been force fed and again lawyers for them as well are saying that their situation is just as dire. as

that of the other detainees who are dissipating in the hunger strike and it is clear that they actually are prepared to die before their requests are being met so we're looking at the old we're looking at a situation which is spiraling out of hand of people in the countries from which the inmates are farm they're starting to support the people and they are literally outraged at the way that their compatriots are being treated. now a package of severe austerity cuts has been introduced in the u.k. with millions of households expected to be hit by the unprecedented cutbacks one of the most widely criticized the so-called bedroom tax social housing tenants of the benefits of a spin room to talk sparked such public concern that legislators agreed to a partial u.-turn making some exemptions for parents of those serving the armed forces foster carers and parents of severely disabled children will avoid the much of the changes who directly affect over half

a million households including tensions. from social council says the government is hitting those who are already struggling to survive. two million households across the u.k. are going to be directly affected by these taxes they're the poorest people in this country this government this tory government is attacking the poorest people on the people who can't afford to pay and they're not people are not working they're up but most of these people affected are people who are working but in very low paid jobs and they need these benefits to help them survive and get by where i am in sheffield we have hundreds of disabled people who are going to be directly affected by this is people can't work they're physically disabled through no fault of their own they survive on benefits of very low benefits another are expected to have to pay for an extra room in their house that they need for their carers to stay in or they need to because they've got children that don't live with them or for whatever reason they're the people most affected seventy five percent of the people affected

by this are working people i think is the most devastating thing this government has ever done anything in the week that they're giving me one hundred thousand about a pound back to millionaires they're changing the national health service or imposing taxes on the poorest people in the country is going to have a devastating effect most people in this country. will head to our web site talking dot com to get more on the outcry sparked by the bedroom tax and other austerity measures in the u.k. thousands of protesters took to the streets across britain over the weekend. and while the brits are feeling the pinch pennies are accused of lacking a real work experience outside of politics. and we also ahead blame games and smart money in cyprus just around the corner. well. science technology innovation all the least of melons from

around russia we've got the future covered.

the international at the very heart of moscow. welcome back. international lenders are refusing to allow cyprus to completely unfreeze the accounts of savers that lost sixty percent of the brutal levy because they wanted customers to have access to the remaining balance but only managed to get permission for ten percent of their savings or struggling on the painful bailout terms and unprecedented bank limits cypriots are now playing the blame game in an attempt to find those responsible for the crisis and investigative commission which will look into how the island's economy is driven to breaking point was to be sworn in on tuesday the most damning indictment on the table all the millions of euros that were apparently moved out of the country just prior to the tough proposal on bank deposits local media are pointing the finger at several individuals and companies including one by the president's son in law also

published a list of favored savers whose loans were allegedly written off by two separate banks. sophos. what you know what that missing cyprus faces the blame family with nixon's partisan brussels. where people are actually forced to take the burden of. greed when all for here and unfortunately this. is not the answer to my opinion on because actually making things worse instead of looking for the problem. arise netcenter a bunch of europe having still policies and that's what caused this problem send the poor people to announce. i think europe wants to destroy the commercial economy send. the very. thing going around. money laundering country

and. in their own countries. stop in each day and give the keep quiet. not being prosecuted and. fines from their money laundry you know and so they should not pick on psychopaths as the u.k. government can stand on spending in public discontent is growing the brits feeling politicians are out of touch with everyday money worries as are the surface reports many m.p.'s about the new experience of work outside their political careers. young polish and in politics meet britain's need political elite an assortment of multimillionaires he studied at exclusive universities a recent study by the house of commons library revealed that one in seven m.p.'s have never held

a job outside of politics and that's left many wondering whether they're really up to the job. i'm not defensive about it i'm there to do a drop i do the job the best my booty but somebody the government's best is not good enough. they've got no idea what it's like they're making all these attacks and they you know they've never been a person like unemployed people living on fifty six pound weeks they've no idea what that's like also no idea what it's like to be a hard working person really want to do your job well you've been given target having a pay cut you know i was attacked you know under-staffed all the time they have no idea what it's like to like that well laden might have been accused of scoring political points by waiting class warfare they don't escape criticism either ed miliband and his wealthy counterparts the champagne socialists but this is not just the tories and lib dems and some of this labor as well like that also which so

let's take a look at who's on the political rich list according to recent estimate the man with his hands on the nation's purse strings chancellor george osborne is east to his pockets weighing him down with an estimated four point five million pounds to his name to impart to shares in a prosperous family business david cameron's not far off with assets estimated at three point eight million pounds but even the prime minister and chancellor fall short of the one time leader of the house of lords thomas galbraith a k lord strathclyde he's worth almost ten million pounds london. famous tailors where the price range for most people but not for this government many of. them not afraid to flaunt their wealth the prime minister david cameron is known to be partial to the rich joining c. the price of which is likely to set you back more than the average monthly household income and we're having to live with another austerity tailored budget

can this politically really understand what those cuts mean for ordinary. clothes according to a close as the old saying goes perhaps members of government should take note from their tailors unemployment in britain. is down and ordinary british people feel. we've frozen. we've increased pension he usually. can always come up with things. have gone wrong with the bad economic situation that we inherited it was almost inevitable that we're going to lose our aaa rating well the push jobs might come easily the resurgence of the top that the top to some is an indicator of the much greater malays there is a problem with the political class in general and that's it is out of touch with the general population they don't really understand how

a lot of families are suffering now with rising basic costs and of course it's very much a top down elitist policy that's driving these costs we are all in this together has been the prime minister's rallying cry with the growing public skepticism because of this being left looking for different ways to try to connect and whether it's george osborne joining twitter or david cameron starring in a pop music video just what will the government do next to try to convince that they can get down with the best of what. but i can't actually tell you one hundred percent about. with. our city. officials in the west bank are raising the alarm over the death of a palestinian prisoner held by israel they claim the death of abu hamed is the result of medical negligence of israel refusing to release him despite his deteriorating health israeli doctors say the sixty four year old who was serving

auntie's miniport are investigates now. from the state of the union in youngstown while we're no workers are mastering the three d. printing has the potential to revolutionize the way we make almost everything to a store in soho new york three d. printing technology has officially gone mainstream the demand is much greater than our supply right now and we're actually ramping up and expanding rapidly to meet that demand this three d. printing company maker bot opened its first retail store last year it is selling its newly released replicator to desktop for just under twenty two hundred dollars using a plastic material the machine deposits ultra thin layers to form any object that can be molded in software welcome to the world of independent manufacturing so this stretch bracelet took about sixteen minutes to make but other objects that are bit bigger like this cupcake gift box took about fifteen hours of printing now while

a major wrench into america's gun control debate as a national conversation and it was a debate that started in december after twenty children and six adults were shot dead at a connecticut elementary school overwhelming majorities of americans americans who believe in the second amendment have come together around common sense reform by background checks that will make it harder for criminals to get their hands on a gun meanwhile just last month wilson became a federally licensed gun manufacturer and dealer there bypassing the debate there rendering the debate irrelevant whatever laws can make about of this discussion the sort of ability to manufacture objects in various firearms on a localized centralized basis means the law really won't matter the law may say that something is illegal but if you can turn to a device that's on your desktop and manufacture that at will with nobody knowing that you've done so then the law doesn't matter at all with

a reported three hundred million guns in circulation the u.s. has the highest rate of gun ownership in the world and the second highest rate of deaths by firearms among industrialized nations. and just as lawmakers are finalizing new legislation that would tighten the nation's all too easy access to firearms experts claim that technology will ultimately outpace their meager efforts at gun control. r.t. new york. but next to max and stacy have this say on the latest financial headlines in a kaiser state. you

know when the history of any culture there are some dark chapters throughout human history there's been war on every continent and religious strife and oppression every culture has some skeletons in their closet and in recent u.s. history the scandalous prison at guantanamo bay as making patriotic americans scurrying around a decade or so rather than slamming the door shut and get mall i hate that term condemning it as one of the greatest mistakes in american history and gloriously declaring on t.v. channels and newspapers the country wide that it shall never be repeated again the pentagon instead wants to blow another forty nine million dollars expanding it even if you are one of the types of things that american gulags are super cool and awesome do you realize it takes over one million dollars per year per prisoner to keep the place open are you sure you don't want that money to go towards something else like your children's education the thing that burns me up about this the most is that obama promised if elected to close guantanamo bay and as commander in chief

of the armed forces he could do this whatever he wanted no amount of filibustering by the republicans could stop him obama you promised hundreds of millions of people to do something very simple start the paper work tomorrow buddy make the nation look better that's your job but that's just my opinion.

you know sometimes you see a story and it seems so you think you understand it and then you glimpse something else you hear or see some other part of it and realize that everything you thought you knew you don't. welcome is a big. welcome to the kaiser report i'm max keiser it's time to hit the reset button because in case you haven't noticed the system around us has collapsed the banks have got the runs currencies gone fricken crazy equity markets are isaac i. doubt challenge for doing it out while capital markets.
