happens. lies with the whole killer robots thing there is the problem of who do you prosecute for wrongdoing i mean you can't exactly prosecutor toaster for burning you so although i did i did once take a vibrating at a trial all right but you know the funny story actually. you know another time another. however when it's when it's humans committing the crimes you can sometimes actually see justice this week a two year pro by the all party parliamentary group on drones claims that british military personnel could be prosecuted for murder and complicity in alleged war crimes which. it so. it's an exciting development but again i would file that under quarantine what do you think just because someone's pushing a bible instead of pulling a trigger it's no longer murder well you know you see some murderer because i

went like this. still like that. you see you see you see the difference so you did this murder all right this secretarial work. we have to go to a quick break but we'll be right back you are. some cool. use indigenous people as you know that the. people of the pipe dream.

out of a sudden a man just. told me there was a time. i said i will enter it in the if they will not allow him. you know should we. find out all i know how long a million million indeed i'm not i'm not picking on you need to be indicted because how be told by me going to lean on man i've got a fake i meet ok i mean you got me i used. you know world a big part of the law and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door on the back and shouting past

each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the troops the time is now for watching closely watching the hawks. join me every thursday on the alex simon show and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics small business i'm show business i'll see you then. welcome back welcome back if you didn't think it was possible for wal-mart to sink any lower with its use of overseas slave labor an abysmal treatment of their in-store labor then break out the shovels all right they they recently won

a patent for an audio surveillance system that will spy on their employees conversations with customers i guess they figured while they're all the back prices they might as well roll back privacy rights you know got the roll back machine out for more on this we go to our senior walmart bathroom user now imagine. a. only this is this is hard to believe recording workers is pretty standard i mean have you never heard the phrase this call may be monitored or recorded for quality assurance because as someone who was threatened physical violence against comcast customer service i've heard that phrase a lot. though not as much as the phrase you're not allowed within five hundred feet of this comcast office. ok but just because it's already happening doesn't make it ok or less authoritarian will what's the point of this technology other than just

to spy on americans that's all there is to increase worker of fish and sea and war isn't exactly the beacon of speed service i mean if they were they wouldn't hire greeters who look like they went to high school with jesus. and they know jesus is the only person that could get you out of a wal-mart checkout line under thirty minutes it's why wal-mart says this audio surveillance technology could be used to monitor the performance of one or more employees at a time and leisure one or more metrics simultaneously like items pro. bag of wine elaine blindly think guess creating work any combination anything from an employee that isn't simple welcome to walmart could slow down the checkout process that's why it's important to monitor for problem phrases like how is your day going fellow human or. do you know you can get this for cheaper at target. or or or. i'll tell you where the walton family can shove their surveillance system

. yeah yeah but this isn't a sign of a fish and see it's a slippery slope in a modern slavery just a few months ago amazon patented a wristband that tracks their employee's hand movements and buzzes them if they do something wrong that's a bad thing do you mean that respect on trumps hand every time you sign an executive order. how do you really know which ones suck because they don't look like you signed them during an earthquake. that's. terrible decisions we devoid at work if we have those oh you want to second don't know what but. about the press an elevator button that's already been pressed but. using the office microwave to cook any fish. right was the only makes us better no it makes us robots for jobs

that could be done by robots and it shows us how much workers rights have dissolved walmart and amazon workers could unionize they could fight this instead we have corporations who c.e.o.'s make thousands of times more than their employees and normalise wearable spyware next thing you'll tell me they have a patent on audio sensors in the bathroom so they can see how long employees take on this breaks i highly highly doubt that. not when i'm the one who has the patent on school stereo. dear god all right and as much as my cable cuts out i bet comcast employees are playing candy crush in the bathroom stall instead of pooping. stop playing games on the throne so i can watch game of thrones now yes. a. jack off was not our shows of what not to do in ireland has actually shown the world what we should be doing to break this down we

sent correspondent john a full doll in ireland and he filed this report. i lend is a magical country full of wood. and i'm not just saying that because my last name is owed and as an american i feel utterly disconnected from. and some overcompensating by romanticizing and idealizing a far off land especially relative to the box of corruption that my country has become that's what i'm doing i'm giving credit where credit is due the republic of ireland will become the world's first country to sell off its investments in basel fuel companies after a bill was passed with all party support in the lower house of parliament that's right ireland is the first twenty three in the world poised to divest from fossil

fuel that's a big deal because climate change is a real and serious issue. anyway i know it all you news junkies are thinking right now. didn't like norway divest from fossil fuels like last november. shun it now. norway's huge one trillion dollars sovereign wealth fund has only partially divested from fossil fuels. have you know your way to really hear that sends very often it's usually you trump or you wall street or you john stop swapping out my face cream for salsa croquet so it's gross come on ireland bring me back to my happy place i really was decision to advance the boycott bill could be the tipping point for justice for palestine.

ireland said it recently passed the control of economic activity occupied territories bill which bans the importation of all products coming from the illegal israeli occupied territories in jerusalem and there was but a new. leader while in america our lawmakers are trying to pass the israel anti boycott act which would criminalize participation in certain political boycotts targeting israel. as so i think it's fair to say we're kind of going in the other direction on this one we're going in the repress free speech domestically in order to better prop up an apartheid regime abroad direction it's simple choice bold in its own cowardly sort of way. hey francis black the irish senator who introduced the boycott will knock my socks

off the occupied territories is a function piece of legislation it calls on our land to stand up for international human rights and justice in palestine these settlements built on occupied territory are war crimes they're condemned as illegal by our government and international courts empty rhetoric simply has not worked as long as we buy their stolen goods as long as they stay profitable noting will change day i'm not going to be on our socks for a month to do magin any us politician ever standing up for palestinian rights like that even bernie sanders would be like. talk about. i just thought of something in addition to being irish i'm jewish on my mother's side i suddenly feel so toward the way judaism

saying no i don't want that i live in a more rural community i believe we should have one that i believe in a country that's divided as much as any in the world we actually have to localise our government. exists is higher than kentucky. or the places it was very funny. a co money city it was almost no coal mines left. the jobs are gone all the coal mines are said. that it was a bluff to seize. people are survivors of a wool disappearing before their eyes. i remember thinking when i was younger that if anything ever happened to the coal mines here that it would become

a ghost town but i never thought in a million years i would see that and it's how it's happened. with no make its manufacture consent instead of public wealth. when the roman closest protect themselves. in the final larry go around the lifts and be the one percent told. to ignore middle of the room sick. i mean real news is really. tough.
