united nations has not reached its full potential because of bureaucracy and mismanagement while the united nations on a regular budget has increased by one hundred forty percent and its staff has more than double. since two thousand and we are not seeing the results in line with this investment at this point the united states is the top contributor to the united nations the usa pays twenty two percent of the core un budget and twenty eight percent of the peacekeeping operations that's three times the second largest contributor china being a businessman this is how trump sees it because the usa is such a big contributor it has every right to question the un's results and the usa has been seeing itself over ruled by the international community when the un ruled against israeli settlements this triggered accusations of bias i'm here to emphasise the united states is determined to stand up to the un anti israel bias
4:03 am
i think most americans believe the united nations has become more anti-semitic more anti israeli you know i'm a big internationalist but we're going to stop the money until we get this fixed and then there's syria russia and china are frequently vetoing resolutions that they view as misconceived this is causing american lawmakers to say that they are a threat to global security the problem is the international community is being held hostage by china and russia just vetoed a united nations security council resolution condemning the assad regime every time that's been tried they have blocked former u.n. ambassador for the united states samantha power a longtime advocate of u.s. military interventions has said that perhaps russia and china's veto power should be removed if a particular body to feel south to be dysfunctional then people are going to go. and if that happened within syria and ukraine and you start to see cross the border
4:04 am
paralysis it was certain that your part of the security council's tejas as it grew to international security it's sort of the trump tower version of the u.n. reform he simply wants to be on the model of suppose one can wish him well but i don't think it's the right way to approach. the more profound questions of peace which to me balancing with the world against each other is a bit more important and balancing the budget the united nations charter does not allow for pay to play games votes are not for sale before the usa calls the un disrespectful it should remember that it's a global platform for compromise where every voice can be heard. r.t. new york. trump is expected to speak at the un general assembly later today and we'll be bringing you all the updates from new york live here on r.t. international.

4:06 am
destroy the advancing syrian forces. also according to reports significant casualties. are being captured but they aren't letting up the pressure determined to throw the syrian military back across the euphrates river something that will be much harder to do that the russians have said they've set up a bridge a temporary military bridge across the euphrates river by which the syrian military could move heavy units. across. the coming days will be. because the syrian military is now kilometers away from u.s. forces so it will be important to watch for any sort of escalation to avoid any unnecessary incidents. and the.

area. which linked the site's. thousands of friends students have found themselves locked out of their own college campus after an illegal makeshift refugee camp appeared on site forty migrants have unlawfully settled to her family pain are down university in northeastern france the security reasons all actors have been suspended until further notice the president of the university says they won't we start until the authorities can ensure student safety we spoke to him as well as students at the campus. yesterday we witnessed an illegal occupation of the university's grounds due to this situation i can no longer guarantee security there are some children living here and it's impossible for the departments to function normally so i've shut down the university and i'm waiting for solutions to be offered. it's
4:08 am
a shame to sacrifice the interests of six thousand students for the sake of forty people i understand that we're talking about people who are on the streets but still this situation seems unfair to me. at the moment who are being sued roofies by society more pressure needs to be put on the mayor's office to provide the migrants without a court house thing at the moment nothing is happening and they're staring into an illegal camp. r.t. sent a letter asking for clarification on the matter from local authorities but so far we've had no response and we will update you later if we hear anything. with the refugee influx into europe growing by the day is not the first case of migrants setting up makeshift camps at public sites one migrant camp that emerged in the belgian capital brussels just a few weeks ago has been branded a second jungle up to four hundred refugees have gathered there desperate for food and shelter in another case this time in the french capital authorities place huge
4:09 am
boulders under a bridge in a bid to deter a makeshift camp that had the murderer but the move was criticized by local activists who argued the refugees had nowhere else to go and had not slept for days we spoke to a political analyst we call america rich about the new camp at the french university he believes the decision to lock students out of the site was correct. the president of the university took the right decision this is not a normal situation you cannot just have migrants they don't know who these migrants are what their purpose there is how long they're going to stay there are sanitary issues there are also problems linked with migrants and crime in different cities in europe today and what we're seeing today is totally to the chaotic can you imagine migrants going on a campus university because there are no more room in town to greet them and this is not the first time that we see these migrants sleeping out in the streets they've been tense sitting in makeshift places because there's an office at least in france cannot cope with this wave of migration today if you look at today isn't a typical sisters
4:10 am
a frantic situation whereby it is given the message to the rest of the world that europe has no borders that europe can greet people from all around the world whether this before you cannot make reasons political reasons and while they're saying this they're inviting thousands and hundreds of thousands of migrants to europe the state and the european union is not taking decision because of also political correctness. and protests have erupted at the georgia institute of technology in the u.s. after a student was killed by campus police. three arrests were made during the protest recordings of georgia tech officials pops off the protesters marched on campus and set fire to a police vehicle offices suffered minor injuries. this is how the incident developed the georgia bureau of investigation said the cole was made to police just off the quarter past eleven in the evening the caller said the person was carrying a knife and possibly a gun shortly off campus police arrived to find
4:11 am
a twenty one year old ahmed with a knife and launching the call is matching the call his description scout shorts was wandering off to a single shot he was wounded and died in hospital mobile phone footage appears to show police yelling at childers to put down the knife he was carrying. every jail was held by georgia tech student to celebrate his life twenty one year old within the. community. and very. angry that the cops don't have the ways to deal with like they could have taser
4:12 am
guns you know the killing was totally unjustified. but i do think just a fling needs to explore scotians about the police brutality how police officers are trained to deal with. these types of there are a lot of discussions to come out of this whether it's about mental health whether it's about r.g.p. chick you a representation or it's about police brutality meanwhile hundreds of protesters have gathered in st louis to show solidarity with those arrested following violence in the city at the weekend more than one hundred twenty people were arrested on sunday when a peaceful demonstration turned violent with property damaged and police officers assaulted anger in the city has been swirling for four days now since a next police officer was acquitted over the death of a black man peaceful demonstrations during the day will followed by riots at night protesters smashed windows and through trash cans of offices there were also reports of police being attacked with unknown chemicals.

4:18 am
for free at current c. and it challenges the need for gold as a reserve currency while the price of a coin is adding to one hundred thousand per coin and possibly higher so along that path you're going to see a lot of volatility all throughout currency are nothing more than ponzi schemes they're long into existence and when the interest is due they print more money it's a classic ponzi scheme big coin is the opposite it's hard money it's real money there's limited supply it's desirable it's fungible it's divisible it's portable it's better than gold. the u.s. defense secretary james mattis has announced that more than three thousand extra troops will be sent to afghanistan in line with president trump's new strategy the deployment will take the u.s. presence to around fourteen thousand troops eleven thousand currently stationed in afghanistan. this fall is a new plan unveiled by the u.s.
4:19 am
president in that speech he ruled out setting any withdrawal deadline and other nato members to increase their financial and military contributions to the war effort the strategy marked a stark new turn from his pre-election promises. we will also expand authority for american armed forces to target the terrorist and criminal networks afghanistan is a total and complete disaster let's get on with it get out of afghanistan the first half of this year was the deadliest period for afghan civilians since the start of the war almost seventeen hundred were killed and three thousand six hundred injured during those six months the country is seeing widespread protests against the ongoing u.s. presence and deadly air strikes. was it was the aim of the u.s.

has been born in our people and they're killing our women and children everywhere in afghanistan they didn't come to help us they came to make problems for muslims in afghanistan and around the world who don't want the us to be against them it was antiwar activists are flounders believes the new troop surge will only make matters worse for afghanistan. absolutely no impact at all the numbers have gone up to one hundred thousand and beyond they've gone down there's been one surge and then a pullback and another surge and none of it makes any difference at all there's no end in sight this is another small surge. with no end in sight no no even possibility of a plan in sight except the massive destruction continued destruction for the people of afghanistan it's really a criminal policy it has been from day one when the us thought they could walk in
4:21 am
and say bragged at the time take over the whole country without a casualty and here it is the longest war in u.s. history. the politicized sation of u.s. society appears to be hitting new heights with nothing and no one of limits anymore the latest victim is the emmy award supposedly in events of one excellence in television however this year's show which was held on sunday was used to mercilessly mock the trump administration host stephen colbert is suddenly joined on stage by the presidents former press secretary sloan spicer surprise he used the occasion to reference his work at the white house something critics suggested looked a little out of place at the t.v. awards. trump's advisory last time to the situation morningside televised events have become quote very politicized i think it's not helping their ratings but when it comes to politics in us life at the moment there is seemingly no escape. tired
4:22 am
of politics. in the past and i think the president taking the. bike well it seems there's nowhere to hide looking for today's weather forecast it's showering and messages on the weather channel home page buying a new comic surprise surprise superman the so-called protection of the earth is now would defend of immigrants that's how he's portrayed in the latest edition of action comics the bad guy here unarmed white supremacist in his stars and stripes seems like a deja vu with this one side you know why the premises of white nationalist protesters yes you stand up there not to show that you are racist surely trusty old sport can save us but you don't have to be anti police to understand what the situation is why not give the black lives matter of movement illegal when the president of the united states is lying or either doesn't understand the information and i don't know which is worse. is politics literally everywhere.

as the syrian government pushes to finally end the war washington again calls for regime change also the media war regarding north korea and the so-called russia. what politicians do something that. they put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president or injury. or somehow want to be rich . but you're going to be prosperous like them before three in the morning can't be good. i'm interested always in the waters of college. so.

4:50 am
listen in june into a paid. late then i want to show they haven't. told . anybody and very. few of them. are good but there are you cold air tomorrow if you say the night then there will be terror. every time a terrorist attack happens all these people. they're screaming and i says that someone needs to do something against them someone needs to do something against them and for me was like yeah why don't we do something against them because it's our problem islamic states claims it was behind them on just
4:51 am
a terror attack on our top story group from from bangladesh. they killed a priest by cutting his throat on the russian airliner in the sinai desert during two hundred twenty four ice is acting community in every country and it's like people are paying attention for one day two days and acting as if everything will be normal and. that's not just not right. ten years of military experience that will stream to their professional snipers. the first isis video i saw of kids maybe ten twelve thirteen years old and they were trying to train how to shoot and it was so cool because they used

4:55 am
oh good. there's nothing in it you just see just a cigarette butt in the barrel. it was bruce to be just give me. the story study till i do understand what you know. even if what happened was. that those that die in it would like to read it. and i said don't worry about it if you don't like the one thing that it actually put me with my kids. because when i let your name be the old well with the letters to me on the first ones that to read before you get on the plane the second one on the plane. on the first letter is that if you're reading this before you board a plane you turn around right now nobody's going to be mad at you everything will

united nations has not reached its full potential because of bureaucracy and mismanagement while the united nations on a regular budget has increased by one hundred forty percent and its staff has more than doubled since two thousand we are not seeing the results in line with this investment at this point the united states is the top contributor to the united nations the usa pays twenty two percent of the core un budget and twenty eight percent of the peacekeeping operations that's three times the second largest contributor china being a businessman this is how trump sees it because the usa is such a big contributor it has every right to question the un's results and the usa has been seeing itself over ruled by the international community when the un ruled against israeli settlements this triggered accusations of bias i'm here to emphasise the united states is determined to stand up to the un anti israel bias
5:03 am
but i think most americans believe that you know to nations has become more anti-semitic more anti israeli and i'm a big internationalist but we're going to stop the money until we get this fixed and then there syria russia and china are frequently vetoing resolutions that they view as misconceived this is causing american lawmakers to say that they are a threat to global security the problem is the international community is being held hostage by china and russia just vetoed a united nations security council resolution condemning the assad. jeem every time that's been tried they have blocked former u.n. ambassador for the united states samantha power a longtime advocate of u.s. military interventions has said that perhaps russia and china's veto power should be removed if a particular body real self to be dysfunctional then people are going to go i'll swear and if that happened more than syria and ukraine and you start to see cross
5:04 am
the border paralysis it was certainly it your paradigm is the security council's tejas as it grew to international security it's sort of the trump tower version of the u.n. reform he simply wants to be on the mount i suppose one can wish him well but i don't think it's the right way to approach the more profound questions of peace which to me balancing with a world against each other is a bit more important than balancing the budget the united nations charter does not allow for pay to play games votes are not for sale for the usa calls the u.n. disrespectful it should remember that it's a global platform for compromise where every voice can be heard. r.t. new york. is expected to speak at the u.n. general assembly event is the day and we'll be bringing you all the up days from new york live here on the international.

destroy the syrian forces. also according to reports suffered significant casualties. have been captured but they aren't letting up the pressure they determined to throw the syrian military back across the euphrates river something that will be much harder to do that the russians have said they've set up a bridge a temporary military bridge across the euphrates river by which the syrian military could move heavy units such as tanks and armored personnel carriers across. the coming days will be. because the syrian military is now kilometers away from u.s. forces so it will be important to watch for any sort of escalation to avoid any unnecessary incidents. and.

they will. of tunnels. well thousands of french students have found themselves locked out of their own college campus after an illegal makeshift refugee camp appeared on site forty migrants have unlawfully settled at a champagne our den university in northeastern france for security reasons or lectures have been suspended until further notice the president of the university says they won't we start until the authorities can ensure student safety we spoke to him as well as students at the campus. yesterday we witnessed an illegal occupation of the university's grounds due to the situation i can no longer guarantee security there are some children living here and it's impossible for the departments to function normally so i've shut down the university and i'm waiting
5:08 am
for solutions to be offered. so it's a shame to sacrifice the interests of six thousand students for the sake of forty people i understand that we're talking about people who are on the streets but still this situation seems unfair to me. at the moment who are being sick roofies by so site more pressure needs to be put on the mayor's office to provide the migrants without a court house at the moment nothing is happening and they're staying into an illegal camp. r.t. sent a letter asking for clarification on the matter from the local authorities but so far we've had no response and we will update you as soon as we hear anything. with the refugee influx into europe growing by the day it's not the first case of migrants setting up makeshift camps at public sites one migrant camp that emerged in the belgian capital brussels just a few weeks ago has been branded a second kalai jungle up to four hundred refugees have gathered there desperate for food and shelter in another case this time in the french capital authorities placed
5:09 am
huge boulders under a bridge in a bid to deter a makeshift camp that has emerged but the move was criticized by local activists who argued the refugees had now or else to go and had not slept for days we spoke to political analyst nicola markovitch about the new camp at the french university he believes the decision to lock students out of the site was correct. the president of the university took the right decision this is not a normal situation you cannot just have migrants they don't know who these migrants are what their purpose there is how long they're going to stay there are sanitary issues there are also problems linked with migrants and crime in different cities in europe today and what we're seeing today is totally to the chaotic can you imagine migrants going on a campus university because there are no more room in town to greet them and this is not the first time that we see these migrants slipping out in the streets to begin tense sleeping in makeshift places because there's no office at least in france cannot cope with this wave of migration today look at today isn't it typical
5:10 am
sisters a frantic situation whereby it is given the message to the rest of the world that europe has no borders that europe can greet people from all around the world whether this before you cannot make reasons political reasons and whether saying this they're inviting thousands and hundreds of thousands of migrants to europe the state and the european union is not taking decision because of also political correctness. violent protests have erupted at the georgia institute of technology in the u.s. after a student was killed by campus police. three arrests were made during the protests according to georgia tech officials off the protesters marched on campus and set fire to a police vehicle offices suffered minor injuries. this is how the incident developed and the georgia bureau of investigation said a call was made to police just off the quarter past eleven in the evening the

5:12 am
you know the killing was totally unjustified. but i do think just a fling needs to explore scotians was told the police officers are trained to. use touch so there are a lot of discussions to come up this is what it's about mental health whether it's about how to pitch a cue a representation or it's about respect all of the. meanwhile hundreds of protesters have gathered in st louis to show solidarity with those arrested following violence in the city at the weekend more than one hundred twenty people were arrested on sunday when a peaceful demonstration turned violent with property damaged and police officers assaulted. in the city has been swirling for four days since the next police officer was acquitted over the death of a black man peaceful demonstrations during the day will follow by riots at night protesters smashed windows and through trash cans at offices there were also reports of protests being attacked with unknown chemicals.

welcome back to the program they are the new alternatives to money systems in the world and backers say the future of global finances but the jury's still out on so-called crypto currencies is not being held by the fact that the most famous of the coin has been on a huge roller coaster ride during the first weeks of september after reaching a historic high at the beginning of september of almost five thousand dollars for a single bit going in the last two weeks it's plunged almost one and all thousands of dollars in value experts say it comes off to china turned against the digital money on september the fourth china's central bank and coins initial coin offering which effectively blocked the ability to invest in the currency then ten days later two of the largest bitcoin exchanges suspended trading in the country making it impossible to buy many now expect a full ban on all cryptocurrency trade platforms but what exactly coins well his

five things you need to know thanks. but bitcoin is not being written off just yet for the past two days it's been on the rise again his own very an economic expert max kaiser on what the future holds for the currency. what people don't understand about crypto currency is
5:18 am
a big point is that we're saying a change in the global economy it completely changes the definition of money it completely changes how people interact with body it completely obliterates the data for free at current c. and it challenges the need for gold as a reserve currency while the price of a coin is sending two hundred thousand per coin and possibly higher so along that path you're going to see a lot of volatility all throughout currency are nothing more than ponzi schemes they're long into existence and when the interest is due they print more money it's a classic ponzi scheme big coin is the opposite it's hard money it's real money there's limited supply it's desirable it's fungible it's divisible it's portable it's better than gold. the u.s. defense secretary james mattis has announced that more than three thousand extra troops will be sent to afghanistan in line with president trump's new strategy the deployment will take the u.s.
5:19 am
presence to around fourteen thousand troops and eleven thousand a currently stationed in afghanistan this fall is a new plan unveiled by the u.s. president in noticed in that speech he ruled out setting any withdrawal deadline and other nato members to increase their financial and military contributions to the war effort the stress of the moment a stalled u. turn from his pre-election promises we will also expand authority for american armed forces to target the terrorist and criminal networks afghanistan is a total and complete disaster let's get with it get out of afghanistan. the first half of this year was the deadliest period for afghan civilians since the start of the war almost seventeen hundred were killed and three thousand six hundred injured during those six months and the country has seen widespread protests against the ongoing u.s. presence and deadly air strikes. was
5:20 am
it was the of the the u.s. has been borman our people and they're killing our women and children everywhere in afghanistan they didn't come to help us they came to make problems for muslims in afghanistan and around the world who don't want the us to be generous to the was antiwar activists are flying as police in new troop surge it will only make matters worse for afghanistan . absolutely no impact at all the numbers have gone up to one hundred thousand and beyond they've gone down there's been one surge and then a poll and another surge and none of it makes any difference at all there's no end in sight this is another small surge. with no end in sight no no even possibility of
5:21 am
a plan in sight except the massive destruction continued destruction for the people of afghanistan it's really a criminal policy it has been from day one when the us thought they could walk in and say bragged at the time take over the whole country without a casualty and here it is the longest war in u.s. history. the politicize ation of u.s. society appears to be hitting new heights with nothing and no one off limits anymore the latest victim is the supposedly an event on the excellence in television however this year's show which was held on sunday was used to mercilessly mock the trumpet ministration host stephen colbert the southern joined on stage by the president's former press secretary sean spicer spicer used the occasion to reference his work at one time something critics suggested looked a little out of place at the t.v. awards ceremony. trump's adviser lashed out at the situation warning televised
5:22 am
events have become quote very politicized i think it's not helping their ratings but when it comes to politics in u.s. life at the moment the seemingly no escape. taught of politics. in the past and i think. well it seems there's nowhere to hide looking for today's weather forecast it's showering and messages on the weather channel home page buying a new comic surprise surprise superman the so-called protection of the earth is now would defend immigrants that's how he's portrayed in the latest edition of action comics the bad guy here unarmed white supremacist and his stars and stripes seems like a deja vu of this one side you know why the premises of white nationalist protestors if that's your stand up. shows that you are racist surely trusty old spode can save us but you don't have to be
5:23 am
a police to understand what the situation is why not give the black lives matter movement illegal when the president of the united states is lying or either doesn't understand the information and i don't know which is worse. is politics literally everyone. maybe the shoulder of the big screen in the family comedy is the way forward you want the red or the blue pill. it's just my boy. he loves all things alice that wants to be one when he grows up. nope not this time well children's t.v. it is them. i mean it feels amazing we. believe news outlets playing politics isn't that in their interests. you could be watching e.s.p.n. and hearing commentary on transgender bathrooms you could watch the cartoon channel
5:24 am
and you know something about climate change now they will tell you otherwise they will tell you that they have never enjoyed greater numb. greater ratings nonsense if you look at the recent every awards the emmy awards moore's one of the worst ratings disasters ever. because even in the television own words program day was political in the united states middle america mainstream they have no conception of what this is w. but. any time you can work and tease trump into first. the phone and any show and find on the dog channel to the weather channel the regards to jenna you get a pass extra points for you. for the news this hour don't forget you can find us

5:30 am
general debate president donald trump attended the u.n. general assembly meeting to discuss reforming the united nations and he took his criticisms the straight to the source during his first appearance at the u.n. as president donald trump called on the international body of leaders to improve the way it does business in recent years the united nations has not reached its full potential because of bureaucracy and mismanagement while the united nations on a regular budget has increased by one hundred forty percent and its staff has more than doubled since two thousand and we are not seeing the results in line with this investment speaking for about four minutes president also called on the world leaders to hold every level of management accountable and focus on the results and not the process and he shared his views on how the un can be better on development management peace and security we seek a united nations that regains the trust of the people around the world in order to
5:31 am
achieve this the united nations was told every level of management accountable protect whistleblowers and focus on results rather than on process. to honor the people of our nation we must ensure that no one and no members shoulders a disproportionate share of the bird and that militarily or for nature meanwhile u.s. secretary of state rex tillerson and russian foreign minister sergei lavrov met sunday night in new york on the sidelines of the united nations general assembly the meeting that was initiated by the u.s. it lasted about forty five minutes the pair discuss cooperation on the syrian crisis issues in the middle east and the agreement to bring peace to ukraine according to the u.s. department of state the two recommitted to the decomp lifting military operations in syria reducing the violence and creating the conditions for the geneva process to move forward pursuant to united nations security council resolution the seventy
5:32 am
second regular session of the un general assembly debate will convene tuesday were president donald trump will make his formal debut on the world stage in front of one hundred and ninety three member nations this is a very big week for president donald trump he has several one on one talks with foreign counterparts to discuss global issues one very important meeting he has later on this week is lunch with the leaders of south korea and japan to discuss rising tensions in north korea which is also a top priority on the u.n. gas' list reporting in new york trinity chavez r.t. . to keep the conversation going we're joined now live by trinity charges from our new york studio trinity obviously this is a gathering of one hundred ninety three nations but from the sounds of it all eyes are on one president and that's president donald trump with his debut what can we expect from him this week. you know some of that's a very good question that's a question that's on everyone's mind this will be his time on one of the most whole
5:33 am
high profile stages in the world and we're talking like you said about one hundred and ninety three world leaders i think a lot of those leaders will want to hear what he has to say as far as what kind of approach he will take especially since he has long criticized the u.n. back in two thousand and sixteen when he was a presidential candidate we heard him talk about the utter weakness and the incompetence incompetency of the united nations during his campaign trump at one point even said the united nations is not a friend of democracy it's a friend it's not even a friend to freedom but since taking office he has definitely softened his approach and his stance on the u.n. saying that it has tremendous potential but this is a chance for the president to reach all of the world leaders out the same time and talk about his america first approach that he has long talked about his national security adviser said on fox over the weekend that the president will emphasize three themes which is to protect the american people promote american prosperity
5:34 am
and help promote accountability and sovereignty among trinity will be following your reporting from new york thank you so much artie's trinity charges. so as we look at more issues from a global perspective but let's tackle one that's a little harder to track global income inequality has been pretty hard to pin down thanks to the secrecy of tax havens like switzerland and the cayman islands but new data should fly on just how much the world well. we have stashed away. joining us for more on this. what is this new research telling us well summed up quickly it basically argues that global income inequality is actually worse than we initially thought thanks to new data we know more about the scope of worldwide income inequality than ever before according to a report from the national bureau of economic research the amount of money stored in offshore tax havens is equal to ten percent of global g.d.p.
5:35 am
that's equivalent to nearly five point six trillion dollars so all of that money isn't spread out evenly over half of it stashed away in gulf countries in latin america well nearly fifteen percent is in europe and traditionally it's countries like switzerland that take the most heat for tax havens but they've actually been on the decline there on the other hand they've been on the rise in asia there was also an increase in the u.s. so it's still below the average so with the exception of a few. has grown over the past fifteen years and that impacts income inequality or taxes are concerned since the world's richest can avoid some of them for example look at the us or wealthy metropolitan areas are making income gains as rural areas lagged behind since two thousand and thirteen the average income in the twenty five largest cities rose by eight point four percent according to the u.s. census bureau but for those who lived outside of those areas the average income
5:36 am
only grew by five point three percent now it's certainly not just the u.s. that has an inequality problem in fact the secretary general of the o.e.c.d. said he years ago that we've already reached a tipping point worldwide. that might be the case bianca let's talk more about the us what you were mentioning to us what are some of the factors that play into the growing divide that you see here well according to new data from the census bureau it sort of shows how the tech sector has had an inadvertent role in income inequality if you look at the tech hubs in the u.s. whether it's francisco seattle denver sharyn charlotte they the tech sector is really booming there so it's created a lot of jobs now as a result the average income has grown by almost ten percent and is higher than the average across the board in the u.s. which is a good thing it's creating jobs helping those local economies but in the other cities and suburbs and in particular the rural areas that don't have the tech to benefit from they're not seen as much growth they're still having
5:37 am
a little bit of growth since the recession but not as much and really hurts the areas that have already been affected by the drop in manufacturing and so forth so it's just an example of how something like tax haven certainly add to income inequality but there are also things that are a little less out of our control just the way that our economy changes which sectors sort of died down which new ones pop up which also of course makes it harder to one quantify the scope of income inequality but also makes it harder for us to argue and agree on a solution to fix it but as we're learning a little bit more about it thanks to this new research i mean where does the u.s. stand when you compare it to the rest of the world well definitely depends which measurement you use if you use the genie co-efficient which is a very popular method the u.s. is only we're number four in terms of countries with the most income inequality so we're pretty high up there and in fact we're getting to the point where the u.s. is being used as an example as of what not to do in australia another nation that's struggling with income inequality there was a report from
5:38 am
a trade organization that basically said our economy is going to become americanised if we don't stop so they're saying we're going to see jobs with less pay more hours less holidays and everything if we don't try and fix this all right . thank you so much for that report. all right time now for a quick break stick around when we return a defense contractor giant takes to the skies and space with a multibillion dollar. we'll look at what will drive president decisions on immigration his heart or the country's wallet and as we go to break the closing bell.
5:39 am
is. it was. just she refused. to. wear the blue. for immigrants it's. never really know for sure but this is. when i sort of know i did. it.
5:40 am
all the crimes are being committed today on wall street talked about like lloyd blankfein and say we're not committing any crimes because even though he's doing the same crimes that sent them to bankers to jail. the one nine hundred eighty s. trying to say it was a long process they got government to change the law so that those crimes are not he legal anymore so he's right he's not break the law anymore because he changed a lot of make what was illegal illegal. here's what people have been saying about redacted in the us actually just pull along awesome the only show i go out of my way to launch you know what it is that really packs a punch oh yeah it is the john oliver of hard to be americans do the same we are
5:41 am
apparently better than two thousand and six and see people you have never heard of love redacted tonight my president of the world bank though hate. me seriously send us an e-mail. as the syrian government pushes to finally end the war washington again calls for regime change also the media war regarding north korea and the so-called russia. well you know the cars they were kind of adopted because we were called pirates so long. i mean they're in the small boats next to the hard pool of ships and it's scary. the little self to be told fish already ninety percent of the dark dot and it won't be calm or.
5:42 am
calm fifteen's. tongues. do it several times a day with a big fleet oh you get an idea why. we have to understand we cannot stay. over. with this is the deal or you are. doing this because i want the future. generations to have enjoyed the ocean. defense contractor giant northrop grumman is setting its sights high in the sky with a billion dollar buy of a rocket maker orbital eighty k.
5:43 am
the deal announced monday details northrop paying seven point eight billion dollars in cash for the company setting orbitals shares soaring more than one thousand percent before opening bell northrop also absorb orbitals one point four billion in debt now orbital is more than a rocket maker it's also heavily involved in the missile defense business at a time when conflict with north korea is putting a bright spotlight on the industry orbitals defense system group includes development of advanced missile interceptors the deal boosts northrop's presence in the space and missile business orbital has billion dollar contracts with both nasa and the army along with contracts with the u.s. missile defense agency now the deal is still subject to regulatory approval and is expected to close the first half of next year the money shouldn't be an issue though northrop should be able to easily handle the seven point eight billion dollars price tag in two thousand and seventeen the company expects to make about thirty billion dollars in sales. another u.s.
5:44 am
company though is that ferry as well as we start the week general motors has been hit by a labor strike in canada with workers walking off the job at an automotive plant the union has made it clear their beef is beyond just wages and working conditions it's about survival alex the high. as a toronto for us with this one alex it seems like talks between g.m. and the union that they were going well what happened well into this happened at a factory just opened say about two hours outside of toronto or to have a place called ingersoll three thousand workers work walked out the decision was made at eleven pm on sunday night to do this and when you look at the breakdown for workers who supported this was ninety nine point eight percent of workers signed off on this in august saying if that they could not reach a deal they're going to walk out now if you talk to g.m. they say everything was going fantastic it was going the direction was supposed to go for some reason these guys got up and left jim started writing this off as
5:45 am
something that is dead in the water there so they're hoping that that's a good ones day or later in this week that they could at least have a tentative deal but for now what the workers are asking for and i'll break it down for you is higher wages better better better benefits as well as more investment in the assembly line in this factory now this factory makes the equinox the chevrolet equinox and the vehicle itself they used to make the train as well and that went to mexico so equinox is the bread and butter of this establishment that's what the workers know and that's what they want to have entrenched here by seeing that g.m. makes a bigger investment they all know that their jobs are more secure they don't want to see this truck or this car going down to down south in mexico as well so that's the demand out there making and that's where survival is the question ok when you say that it's really about survival that actually ties into the nafta agreement doesn't it we just does another successfully this right so that when we see all
5:46 am
this all of these cars over the trucks going for manufacturing in mexico it's all within the nafta agreement canada mexico and the states and if you look at this graphic sort of gives you a good idea of what is going on here so you look since two thousand and four look at mexico i mean they shot up in auto manufacturing big. while canada and the us canada had a massive drop there all of our cars we've talked about this before and trucks parts are made either in canada and the states and mexico crosses borders all the time when it comes to nafta now that we have the nafta goshi sions up again canada has started to make a little bit of a push here and that's a lot of the has to do with the right to work that we're seeing in the states so in the states if you are in a union or if you work for a company let's say like g.m. you have you could opt out of paying union dues and still the reuse basically represented you either way what candidates say is that this is basically not fair use have to be union your workers have to pay their union dues and because of that
5:47 am
it's obviously that these states there's an advantage over the canadians if their you don't have this this how can you put this hurdle of a union also canada wants to see mexican workers paid the same as canadian american workers for the exact same job that they're doing so we want to see a level playing field and that's going to be obvious and there could be a lot of head butting around that with president trump and with his team so right now the way it stands even with a negotiation like you're seeing what's happening in her shawl and terrio this really touches upon many facets that deal with all of nafta so that's a can of the states and of course mexico right artie's alcohol of asian toronto for us thank you so much thank you. as us president on all trump works to keep jobs in the u.s. some of his other policy goals are working to remove workers from the country whether it's mixed messaging on dreamers those immigrants whose parents illegally
5:48 am
brought them into the u.s. as children or aims to cut legal immigration and have some economists are worried trump's immigration stance will harm the economy not protect it let's bring in marshall our back for his take he's a research associate at levy economics institute marshall thanks for being here i want to first talk about these dreamers and dhaka. the deferred action for childhood arrivals program because it sounds like trump is going to work with the dems to keep these eight hundred thousand some immigrants in the country trying said he would deal with these dreamers with a big heart but is there an economic reason to keep them around. will he says a lot of things. not sure he's displayed much of a big heart and it's almost as if wherever deals with him seems to get the word they want to hear so i'm not sure whether we can take his public statement seriously but i think it's more more to the point. it's politically toxic for either party to be seen to be deporting over eight hundred thousand people from the
5:49 am
country even though it might please a hard core of his radical followers the main thing is that you know this is really the legacy of a problem that's been existence since one thousand nine hundred six the last time we had a. immigration amnesty under ronald reagan and the problem and i think the tied up with this is that you had. given to a over three million illegal immigrants but the quid pro quo was that you would somehow regain control of the borders and and therefore restrict the flow of legal immigration and ultimately what we ended up having was a an amnesty and there was no real reform on immigration or the immigration laws per se and that's created this bill to present skepticism which has led to extreme measures such as the proposal for the wall and as you know in
5:50 am
a sense got tied up with that as well as being tied up with the debt limit but we don't hear a lot about the immigration laws in this country changing we do hear a lot about that wall that you mentioned marshall what was the economic basis behind that though because you hear that you know terms pretty adamant about this he says the wall is going. happen whether it's tied to this legislation or that legislation that's going to be the case but then he's surrounded by experts that say well maybe that's not the most economic way to go with this that maybe there are some better ways at enforcing the border what say you. well look he says look we're going to do the wall because when he's on the campaign when he was on the campaign trail or when he's on some rally in arizona he gets that's where he gets the biggest cheers and then he says and who's going to pay for it and they all scream out mexico well if that's the case in why on earth do you need congress to appropriate money look there's no other than the fact that i suppose if you spend twenty five billion building a wall you're going to get some economic benefit from it in the sense of that it's
5:51 am
an infrastructure spend unless of course it's mexicans building the wall that mean that's the other possibility but he he clearly it's a sound bite and i know that people say that you know well look at they they have a wall in israel and it's been very successful over there but you know it's slightly different circumstances you're dealing with the. millions of people that are hostile to israel's national security i don't think that's the case here with the mexicans by any stretch they want to participate in the american dream not destroy it and secondly look at the map i mean you know a wall in israel wouldn't even cover you know one third of the texas border so i mean it's nonsensical and your last point general john kelly who is now trumps chief of staff and was originally appointed is homeland security second secretary has himself said that a wall in itself won't get the job done it has become by and with border security
5:52 am
and maybe some form of higher surveillance more border control guards being being hired so when you've got the former head of homeland security saying this and you've got a lot of moderate republicans and of course the democrats are also saying that they want to there willing to do a quid pro quo on some beefed up almost. it is another no could do the wall the makings of a deal out there at this point i think trump is more interested in just putting points on the board so to speak than having the wall per se even though there are people like rush limbaugh warren and coulter who will be very upset with him that he doesn't actually physically construct a wall but he's also a deal maker so we'll see if he decides to deal with the dems on that one but let's talk a little bit more about legal immigration now publicly back to bill that would slash the number of green cards that were awarded each year in half and it would be implemented on a merit based system which had mixed reviews and it included giving preference to those speaking english can we see examples in other parts of the world where
5:53 am
they've been using a point based immigration system and and what is been the result of that. yes well i'm from canada originally by the way i came here legally and and used to here a lawyer just for the record i am a green card holder but look at canada australia are two probably if examples of countries that do use a points based system and yes in the case of canada for example which i know pretty well the ability to speak english in french which of the two official languages is a big factor in the point system but there are also it's also skills based so there are a number of things where that are put on it but but it is not discriminatory and it's working its work very well it commands a lot of political legitimacy precisely because it is perceived to be neutral as far as race or religion color creed goes and you know it would seem to be a very very good model for the u.s. to adopt in fact in the u.k.
5:54 am
as they've been speaking about breaks it and what sort of. policies they'd like to follow they too have made reference to the points based immigration system so that would seem to me to be a much more sensible way for the us to go back to that's the way the immigration system here used to be very very skills based before the nine hundred sixty five that came into play real quick we only have about a minute left marshall but i wanted to ask me if we make the emphasis on skilled based immigration there's an argument out there that no one's going to take the low skilled jobs these are jobs that regular american citizens don't want what do you think comes of that well the answer is if you pay a living wage you'll get americans to do the jobs i mean we fought a civil war over one hundred fifty years ago to abolish slavery so while whenever i hear this argument about americans won't do the jobs that. other people will do the question is do you want to pay a living wage would you want to pay slave wages we abolish slavery so let's let's
5:55 am
pay a sensible wage and i guarantee you'll get americans to do them thank you so much for your take marshall our backward. associate levy economics institute appreciate your time thanks one thanks for having me. a rolling stone gathers no moss as the saying goes and right now in order to keep its brand alive magazine rolling stone is up for sale again for fifty years rolling stone has been a staple known for its music and pop culture journalism and for its iconic cover photos of celebs from john lennon to jennifer aniston however there's not enough star power to help rolling stones financial troubles the announcement comes six months after rolling stone owner when her media announced being debt free in one year after selling forty nine percent stake in the magazine to a singapore based digital music company but with a ten percent loss in newsstand sales last year and likely declining it's less surprising here is knowing when our media is hoping the remaining shares of rolling stone fly off the shelf faster than its monthly issues all right that'll do it for
