or deny it unlike his lawyer several law enforcement agencies from the united states approaching people in afghanistan including mr khan and requesting assistance and assigned to stand it payments made services requests from my client and others but now com is free no criminal charges no trial and no explanation why now at this point perhaps we can assume that the law enforcement agencies know what's best for the public and just don't feel a need to share their secret collaboration with the worst of the underworld kept secret so you can sleep better at night able to mop and r.t. new york. as requested coleman from the us federal bureau of prisons concerning the release when we get a response if we do we will update your letters. now once a green area close to the french capital is no longer tons of illegal waste but clearing up the problem is proving difficult for the authorities and even more

a little east checkups i would remind you all of that land these private property that public authorities cannot interfere with private property. for disease and we vote for politicians to do the job so they protect the land today though we can say that will take. sunday marks the two hundredth birthday of or nine philosopher and economists karl
12:33 pm
marx for better or worse his profound ideas impact us and shape the global political landscape and remain as divisive today as they did during marx's life our europe correspondent peter all of our reports during the eve of separations in germany. germany is commemorating one of its most famous sound controversial think is such a day as the two hundredth anniversary of the birth of the author of the communist manifesto karl marx to say that his ideas of class struggle and the overthrow of the ruling classes by the workers were hundred main divisive here well that is beyond understatement marx's ideas were literally at the root of the ideological division between east and west germany post world war two but that's not stopping his place of birth tree in the south west from hosting a series of events to mark his big birthday bash.
12:34 pm
it surprised many when it was announced that the guest of honor at the big party in tria would be shown claude younker the e.u. commission president hardly has proletariats credentials in fact the former prime minister of luxembourg has been accused in the past of exuding the worst excesses of the bush was he so perhaps mr young has been a closeted common rate of marx all these years marxists con marx is not responsible for all the atrocities carried out by his followers from his writings does capital and the communist manifesto change the world as we know it so marx's name and image
12:35 pm
has appeared all over the place from a major street here in the german capital to these t. shirts you can even save your capitalist pennies inside the heads of one of communisms founding think is marxist also appeared in more than. share of t.v. shows and advertisements as well. oh come on that dad. mars scientists are calling the list.
12:36 pm
the ideas put forward by moxie alongside frederick angles haven't been consigned to the nineteenth hole for that matter the twentieth centuries a recent poll of people from twenty eight different nations showed that hall for them said to get a better society we should follow socialist ideals however it is worth noting that in the same poll around the same number said that political systems based on the writings of these two were far more likely to be oppressive i asked the people of what they thought those mosques have a place in today society and politics so when it comes to politics like maybe you use it to get votes but it's now very early like that ideology and it has never been practiced so it doesn't exist and not only like about. economic
12:37 pm
inequalities but also other types of inequalities that could be used like they could use marxist theory to to be examined more in today's culture capitalism. the seals labor from people from the workers. from from our point of view. it's still important. but it's not. in reality things in the differently at marx's funeral in london in one thousand eight hundred three angles said his friend the greatest living thinker has ceased to think well that may well have been but two hundred years after his birth the ideas put forward by mach's continue to inspire others to think peter all of. one of those as peter was saying was philosophers love annoying and he spoke to us about karl marx's popularity as a cult figure and idol. all heroes but he had almost this
12:38 pm
fame is very ambiguous. you become a cult figure out a week means people don't really starve you don't really review and so on and so on marx to prevent. not only doesn't take mark seriously but also avoid confronting problematic in mark's his description of the movement of a global. so one of its own. but the context is totally different he was. in the wrong way. speaking about the two hundred year old karl marx school children and a second state in america could be about to have their textbooks amended to highlight the story of the community going into that after the break.
12:39 pm
the global economy is so tightly wound that these sanctions don't work like they used to because the supply chains are completely overlapping and the what is sanction of one country drives economic problems of another country that you're not promising so forget sanctions just tell longer walkable that the global economy has
12:40 pm
to integrate and fragile it's too. interdependent. twenty minutes into the program welcome back opposition activists thumping rallying in dozens of cities across russia the demonstrations are being held i had a lot of putin's presidential inauguration scheduled for this coming monday well these are the scenes right now in moscow the come on just following some riot police going through a crowd there and to burst sky the main thoroughfare that leads to red square moscow hundreds of activists have gathered the spike authorities refusing to give the green light to the rallies proposed location in a statement they said the protest would get. in the way of victory day celebrations
12:41 pm
rehearsals which take place through the city center of the russian capital of it would be an unnecessary destruction for police victory day takes place by the way on whedon's the at the ninth of may meanwhile in the siberian city of could scare arrests have been reported of a similar rally other cities like stark better off skin russia's far east protesters reached a compromise with the authorities and with the opposition rallies going ahead without any instance of notes just to recap these are live pictures from moscow as opposition rallies are being held in the russian. schools in the u.s. state of illinois might soon have to change their curriculums to teach more about the contributions made by the l g b t communities in u.s. history the work all of the figures will be given more focus in subjects ranging
12:42 pm
from science to sport california made a similar move last year on the bill still has to be given the go ahead by the states house of representatives but it's already got plenty talking it will promote acceptance and a more accurate betrayal of history it is in direct contradiction to the clear christian beliefs of many in illinois well to discuss the issue further we invited media commentator gina loudon and human rights activists peter tatchell to offer their views. it's very important people understand the contribution that gay people of made i think is about informing straight kids so they understand l g b t issues they their prejudice is broken down if a history book or any book would ever write about me personally i wouldn't want them to leave with my religious background my ethnicity and certainly not my sexual orientation fantastic extraordinary people from tchaikovsky to richard
12:43 pm
the lionhearted their gayness or their bisexuality is not the major factor but it's just about acknowledging that l.g. beauty people have existed throughout history and have made a very important contribution to the sciences the arts sport and culture well i think in an effort perhaps to be inclusive we've made a mistake and a miss estimation if you will and what's happened is that a lot of groups have been taken advantage of by politicians who are willing to prey on people based on those identities i think that you know i don't do politics has been a response to exclusion because of decades of exclusion and marginalization some communities of how to organize it hasn't worked and what it's done instead is it's divided us up into little groups that then can be taken advantage of by politicians and jews right we don't want to be typecast about the fact that we're jewish or gay or black those are just one aspects of who we are but in some cases those are the
12:44 pm
aspects of who we are which other people target for hatred and discrimination my concern begins and ends where government gets involved in deciding who is relevant who is not relevant who is more relevant and then dividing us into little groups because when government has enough power to do that they also have enough power to take that away. cultural appropriation has become an trend on social media with one recent case targeting a teenager's photo of herself in a chinese dress for prom or teens online series in case you missed it got to grips with what's going down. a young. a young girl just enjoying high school prom no thank goodness you missed this
12:45 pm
picture is the moment that civilization went just too far. cultural appropriation or appreciating stuff from other cultures may seem like a completely made up full bloom the kind of thing it's not worth. but only really going to believe that innocent young traditional chinese dress just so she could look nice when i'm angry guy on twitter who had never met the teenager and probably shouldn't be looking at strangers social media feeds spoke for us when he said my culture is no no goddamn problem for us but mr angry is a chinese american named jeremy lamb who one would expect would know a thing or two about mixing culture is if we don't all pretend to be outraged right now where we're like as he is of this world stop we will start to eat chinese food as if it a new thing when they start using goods made in china in everyday life china's
12:46 pm
culture is not your god damn i think what about indian children aptitude from the simpsons he's going under the radar for thirty years but is now finally being criticised by one guy who can't just take someone from another culture and affectionately turn them into a much loved blondes of the most successful show of all gone i'm groundskeeper willie scotland how are they getting away with that so how do we stop this before we end up in the nightmare scenario where different cultures learn about appreciate and accept one another start with your half but say no to inappropriate appropriated styles cut it all off shore boldness risk ernest's but what are they going to do speak like you. your grandma speaks snoop dogg's grandma fancy dress party it's just not worth the risk yo girl stop it if you're no indian you stole it i'm gonna have democracy and elections and stuff like that tough the greeks want to
12:47 pm
back cracking a computer that's russia's so backoff comrade really there's only one option that will make us all happy so great culture has build walls and stop sharing ideas or just drink a cappuccino in a kimono no and see if that can take it. and you can join to the base on the story and plenty more n r t dot com why not leave your message when you get a chance this is our two international. putting
12:49 pm
a very long heat he says so to speak. of long distance rather than politics and that's the way they underestimate. yes how do you know are americans in america covering american news or uncalled for yes. by the end of this segment you will realize the stock market is a complete fraud but it's not all bad news by the end of the segment you'll also know a great new recipe for a coke and carrot cake so let's get started shall we the stock market the heartbeat of the american economy the lifeblood of our entire system good tested and here is
12:50 pm
more desecration of the planet the. stock market has gotten so big that it is now worth thirty trillion dollars wow that's a lot of money and well am i being condescending right our what. well it's time to throw in some condescending images as well when you picture a stock when you brigid like like buying a stock in a company what do you picture you probably imagine a company like pepsi co and you are in bed this is what i see in my head and you are. and you are an investor is so you buy a share you buy a piece of the company right you know. you own a piece of the company and you get a proportion of the profits which are called dividends it's a messy but fair process. let's say you purchase stock in a company that manufactures a new type of razor scooters and also doubles as
12:51 pm
a colon after the machine or whatever some better what it is you know while you're on the scooter it does the colon ask me by surprise but i say well you know this device is revolutionary so you buy a share in the company hoping to get some of those profits well that's not what a stock is not at all that that's what are you stuck used to be but that was back when men used to wear top pants and if a lady showed her knees in public she was a floozy who should die alone. now adays you almost never receive the profits of the business and the company is not obligated to pay you anything for your stock avar here's an example the example of google according to tellen lose book the ponzi factor a share of google kids right around nine hundred dollars but google explicitly states in writing that the poor value of their stock is only point zero zero one dollars google also says they do not pay their investors any dividends and their
12:52 pm
classy shareholders have no voting rights so if you own a share of googe you you won't receive any money from google you won't be allowed to vote on corporate issues and google isn't obligated to pay you anything more than point zero zero one dollars for the share you bought for nine hundred dollars so what do you own. nothing it is nothing you own a slip of toilet paper that you might be able to trick someone else into paying you for. so then where are the profits come from like if you buy google in twenty dollars and you sell it two hundred twenty where did the two hundred dollars come from it came from other investors who were willing to buy the stock as tang luke puts it the investors are just cannibalizing each other for profits and there are fees attached to every trend. action. cannibalizing each other for profits.
12:53 pm
now this is starting to sound like an american enterprise. this is all american activity it's right there on the flag america cannibalizing each other for profits and seventeen seventy five. no longer you've made the money you make for most stocks if you make money is coming from other investors pumping new money in and if there if there are new investors willing to buy the stock then you're just you're just standing there with your thumb up you said since we could pause for a second why is standing there with your thumb up your ass and expression. and the other one the kind of means the same as standing there with your hand right . they both mean you've got nothing going on. you just stand there with your thumb up your and you. put that doesn't sell mike duffin you know that.
12:54 pm
that sounds like a big night if you're into that kind of say. and it sounds like a terrible night if you're not into that because. bloodied certainly doesn't sound like nothin. where i work for you. thank you only you only make money if new investors want to buy the stock from you otherwise you're screwed why does that sound familiar that that that set up sound oh i know it's the exact definition of a ponzi scheme our stock market. these. securities and exchange commission defines a ponzi scheme as an investment fraud that involves the payment of purported returns to existing investors from funds contributed by new investors. the only ponzi schemes usually involve lying to the investor which is also what goes on with wall street most investors don't understand that they own literally nothing they
12:55 pm
don't know that they are simply gambling and they don't know that their profit relies on everyone still believing this stupid fraud is real boy where do i sign up. this means the only way to get your money back or to profit is to find another chump willing to buy it now don't get me wrong your argument may be this is america there's always another job we are based on a long time honored tradition of never running out of jobs. were lousy with chumps that's a fair point but i don't think you see anyone proudly touting that as the definition of the stock market i would actually respect that i would if it were right there on the front of the stock exchange just put your money it is just market the only way you going to make money is if you kind of getting it to buy whatever stocks you just bought but there are an infinite number of. this gravy
12:56 pm
train is power five or on so you got another to worry about. if it said that i bill and i would have very little. but the fact that our stock market is that house of cards built on idiocy stacked on spiderwebs hanging can you asleep from the indian berg is actually kind of a big deal you know think about this as of september twenty seventeen the nasdaq in the new york stock exchange had a combined value of over thirty trillion dollars this means investors believe they are entitled to thirty trillion dollars in real money with only one point six trillion dollars of cash circulating in the u.s. economy and three point eight trillion in. existence in the entire u.s. economic system only three point eight trillion in hard cash which means the stock
12:57 pm
market is built mostly on nothing like jared cushier it's built on nothing the stock market is a ponzi scheme a fraud a scam a shakedown a ripoff a flim flam all right. let's look at an example tesla here's a chart of tesla stock price from twenty ten to twenty seventeen it went from twenty dollars a share to three hundred eighty dollars a share if you bought a bunch in twenty ten you're probably very rich right now so where did all that money come from did it come from tesla's profits did you get a letter in the mail it's a dirty we just sold a car here's two dollars and seventy five cents from that car no no you didn't get the letter because actually it's test the last two billion dollars in two thousand and seventeen over the entire period of this chart they lost four point three billion dollars so then where in god's name is all that money coming from the money is coming from other people gambling on the idea that that number will keep going
12:58 pm
up and look. i don't have any problem gambling if you want to gamble at a casino you get your heart out or i'd stay up all night until you're on your last two dollars trying to give you a slot machine and hope it just might pay out afterwards go for it have a ball but the casinos are honest with you that it's gambling the front of the casino doesn't say invest your pension in roulette you know you have a kid with a degenerative disease then put all your savings on red thirty two so he'll be taken care of when you're gone. now don't say that the stock market does and some people may think that if it were ripped truly gambling that would mean it's not predictable yet finance professionals claim they know how to analyze and predict the market so you put your money in their hands sale grow your money well multiple tests have been done to see whether the professionals know how to predict
12:59 pm
the market one contest was between amateurs students finance professionals and the cats named board. who did all those investing by tossing his favorite mouse toy on an electric grid electronic grid orlando the cat one look ok a good time to market is a ponzi scheme you say it's a racket but i actually. was. ok in the many many cities gambling is illegal they'll send in armed forces to break up poker games right you got to get a permit for a raffle you gotta go talk to a guy about a big game but when a sociopath in chicago bets your entire pension and loses no swat team no arrests because it's a legalized ponzi scheme and by the way these ideas are not allowed on your corporate media your financial shows your financial web sites the almighty stock
1:00 pm
market. it does not permit even the slightest doubt to creep in tom lew the author i've been speaking about has tried to put his ideas on popular finance blogs and web forums and they are often you deleted or he's banned completely from the site they act like you know he just showed up to a scientology web forum and wrote you know tom cruise is a freak right. he's going to sell you messiah these actors are weird. all right and mr pitt i'm possible is overrated. it's tough to overstate the impact this conversation has on our world and our lives not just when people lose their pensions but when the news came out that north korea had brokered peace with south korea the stocks of the major weapons contractors tanked billions of dollars thanks. really.
