1:39 am
world. and. there's no doubt that being rich makes it. will be incarcerated even if something terrible. says. so. on. this is the richest year ever human history the rich are getting richer this evidence are less and these are creators plutocrats these are do or make and things happen when they do well and we all do well. there's a religion that says everyone will benefit there's almost nothing to do with the real world so it completely fails in the real world house is the wrong word it's not a failure for the of fraction of one percent of the population that's accumulating
1:40 am
wealth you know beyond the dreams of avarice the influence of money in politics has risen dramatically in recent decades the people at the top have more money what they've been doing has been giving bigger contributions to politicians and in return asking for lower tax rates on themselves and less stringent regulations on their companies from humble beginnings in small town arkansas to the world's leading retailer wal-mart has come a long way since one nine hundred sixty to no one except for maybe sam who never lost sight of his original idea could have predicted the company's remarkable growth. case because well let's begin. with. registry. and they are highly respected the communities in which they live in there they do respectable things they. give money to hospitals and to all that stuff. and yet you know in many communities people who work at will are. good ways but also getting
1:41 am
food so that basically the public is paying. for fiscal year in two thousand and twelve wal-mart has gross sales of what four hundred forty six billion and then the net sales were sixteen point seven but almost seventeen billion dollars net profit i have no problem when it comes to making no profit and like i said i have my own business but when you're making a profit at the expense of the people who are doing the work and they're their own food stamps it's a moral issue if you're making a decision are we going to cut our so we can keep profit up you know what your doing.
1:42 am
1:43 am
are constantly warned about the threat of terrorism terrorism is very real and very deadly however terrorism is not the primary killer in america americans are the gun debate is important but why is america so much. we've been finding that wealthier individuals are more likely to perceive the pursuit of self interests as opposed to collective interest as being moral and favorable or even observing this moralization of greed this greed is good mentality this culture absolutely selects for psychopathic thinkers you know people who literally have no empathy whatsoever because once you have successfully cleaved off ethical considerations you're incredibly efficient i think there's nothing wrong with aspiring to be comfortable i don't even know that there's anything wrong with
1:44 am
aspiring to be rich but the aspiration of wall street is how you money and the money is the amount of money so vast that you could pick up the phone or save you to whoever you wanted without repercussion. one of the necessary illusions for the general public is that we live in a capitalist economy but the rich don't believe for a minute they insist on a powerful state to protect them from market the supply so if goldman sachs makes a risky transaction. they're basically protected if it crashes they can run through the nanny state with their trap and. build a good morning this is a pivotal moment for america's economy. problems that originated in the credit markets and first showed up in the area of subprime mortgages have spread
1:45 am
throughout our financial system it's been a dismal common bond street last i think. yesterday the dow closed down five hundred investors agreed that this is a week to see whether or not the government can step in and we'll decide on in the i'm a strong believer in free enterprise. under normal circumstances i believe companies that make bad. sition should be allowed to go out of business but these are not normal circumstances you know the president has said over and over it's the people's money. is right about that it is the people's money but now it's the people's debt. this is the pain that will stay with me for the rest of my life but you got to keep four hundred eighty million dollars i have a very basic question for you is this fair the spectacle all of these bankers who have contributed hugely to bringing the western economies
1:46 am
to the knees and yet are still going on paying themselves money beyond the dreams of avarice in most people's eyes and they really think they're worth it but sometimes i meet them socially and they say max when you understand this is how capitalism works i say this is not how capitalism works this is talk up and listen goes hopelessly design mistress leave room. one. of your significant. other the best person to speak on behalf of the wall street as i sit across from them. you know i see the sort of people on wall street are working harder now than ever before not knowing whether they can ever move up the ladder and when will this rat race. dr alton cast as a psychologist and probably more than anything else. is known
1:47 am
for helping people manage i'm certain that and maintain optimum motivation and performance. in times of uncertainty. it's become a mission for me to help people out during this rough time because i feel like in my practice as a psychologist my clients are looking to me for answers my dissertation is the first study in the united states conducted in the last fifty years was called casualties of wall street and assessment of the walking wounded and my findings basically show that we are currently in a crisis of connectivity. with
1:48 am
. we should not bail out those who made the reckless decision to buy a home they knew they could never afford. that word came up a lot o. greedy homeowners this isn't just about poor people who bought t.v. their second mortgages and it's their father and they were greedy that's the mentality blame the victim. i kept using my credit cards to live and then i got those where i was maxed out and. to be moving. i've got to go very soon within the next few weeks you know.
1:49 am
this is this is the. there's a lot of data. suggesting that social mobility is an all time low people despite their hard work on it's achieving the american dream. so who is it that achieves wealth it's often those individuals that are born into wealth in the first place. i actually feel like i'm blessed with having everything i need. to look here. could not ask for anything more in the she's living. or. dead fifteen years old i left big stone gap ginia and i hitchhiked
1:50 am
across this entire continent to southern california. and i had a good job. heterosexual should have a life was good i was thinking about going to hollywood be the next tom cruise or somebody you know me. but it didn't happen my to. feel that mainstream school is a great place for kids who are even slightly above the curve. so would probably homeschool if they're not staying on track meeting the milestones meeting the goals they need to meet it's going to impact long term what their outcome looks. no challenge is more urgent. no debate is more important we can either settle for a country where
1:51 am
a shrinking number of people do really well while a growing number of americans barely get by. or we can restore an economy where everyone gets a fair shot and everyone does their fair share and everyone plays by the same set of rules. it's not the case that all of the is attributable to bad apples but rather that the barrel is bad the barrel is what's contaminating the outposts it's the institutions that prioritize getting ahead above all else that it's ok to break the law if that means that your going to make more profits for the company with no attention to what the consequences are for the system as a whole. what i object to is the feeling that there's some mechanism out about which you can do nothing to that's not simply not true chief if you want to change this they can change it and never.
1:52 am
let a busy a tailor an m.p. it's a day. have a voice. my fellow worker and everybody this. rochelle mom to what would you like to say to the boss and i've held for whom you work i don't blame any one particular company the truth is unless the government actually acknowledge the importance of the home test within this country people are going to continue to be failed these problems a deep rooted within the system and the system that needs to change my name is janet sparks and i am a wal-mart associate at store number eleven zero two when i think about the fact there are see my do made over twenty million dollars last year more than one thousand times the average wal-mart associate. with all due respect
1:53 am
i have to say i don't think that's right. i wish we'd never gone to justice center i wish we'd never have these extraordinary high rewards i didn't realize that the was going to happen maybe all those orders knew perfectly well that this would be the result of it but i think the plot is unfortunate some are regretted i think you know you sort of always have it maybe in the back of your mind that you know you're not part of something good but i don't have a clear sense of why i'm doing something actively harmful and then when the financial crisis hit i started to feel really uncomfortable and i asked my boss will the public ever forgive us for this and meaning the bailout and he based i said to me well here's the thing the public always forgets the public forgot after the

in the us a child can choose an army course in school with retired officers as teachers we don't. recruit we'll sisters if the cadet is interested in going in the military but we don't recruit ourselves. the pentagon is funding a program to boost interest in the military among teenagers who chance to step up to an apollo so that months away quite comfortable with yourself. think you are yourself you can't go wrong in the military it's a great stepping stone for whatever career you want to do but some veterans are
