i'm actually retired when you're watching a going underground special with the filmmaker francois truffaut once called the most important film director alive coming up on the show we asked bernard shaw give the coronavirus pandemic has fundamentally changed humanity and what it means for the internet the police and the planet plus as those leaving lockdowns in friends and family for the 1st time in months we asked the legendary german director about his new film family romance l.l.c. which explores the commodification of relationships all of them all coming up in

today's going underground but 1st after a weekend it's all the united states celebrating independence day and the u.k. flooding the country's pubs you'd be forgiven for thinking life was getting back to normal after the coronavirus pandemic but with protests calling for the defunding of police still going on around the world will the only way to return to normal mean us having to embrace the surveillance state in fact will anything really be the same ever again joining me now from los angeles in the united states is the greatest film director of all time at least according to francois truffaut verna his new film family romance l.l.c. is streaming now on movie version of thanks so much for coming on before i even get to the new field. what culture of you've been enlightening yourself with during the lockdown well i'm trying to beat this it didn't. tell me and i think it's a. responsibility to keep distance takes place next

experience to mention. starve the sucker meaning the virus has to be starved out by the most offensive of edits humans california hyssop biggest rates of the new infections one thing that i see texas money in florida so you better watch out when they do that. now many people maybe a different generations will know your acting as a as a star of the man the laurian but this new film family romance can you just explain why i might ask you whether there i am impersonating an interviewer interviewing you and how that how that is to do with the film it's a deep question yes it could be you know might be an impersonator digitally this possible to pillowy into some digital interview with

a likeness of you a real person so we we have to understand that representation of self even if you were yourself has changed with the digital age and in the way family romance. has as a subject this question of performative things or fake fake news of performative and parents of people where you're meant somebody most of the people actually know exactly what they are doing they rent a friend when they're in deep salvage the woods and they have a great afternoon with a friend and they go out to the bar but sometimes. there might be a case where a change missing a father. gets a rented father and doesn't know that the father they see and it so then it's and it's a deeper thing but of course make question is how much is your last performative.

doing a conversation on the air you probably talk differently than to your own family we play roles when we are in the military service of n.p.r. with our children so we adapt different voices different attitudes. is it a kind of sequel to. tokyo story not really that sea of mention a film of bin then does that in that case it was a documentary and they were supposed to sip and but it's more about image making. images that wasted away that degenerated that handful that are dying out in they keep saying that since long time if you do not create adequate images for the state of our civilization we might die abject

dinosaurus. because presumably people will say it charts a horrifying destruction of family life let alone family romance given that people are imitating fathers hurting feelings and whilst always being alone. of course it points on some to excess tension solitude said we increase because populations are aging in all industrialized societies we have age and populations but it's not only aging populations it's also the internet itself experiment toxically pretends to connect us yes we are connected we are not isolated solitude screwed deep into the showroom the internet lo and behold reveries of the connected world and in web sequence actually didn't include it in the film places teenager who 15 years old who

does 2 sounds and 200 texting a day constantly texting it's totally amazing and i have never seen solitude s.t.p. stet because all these 2200 trains and trace work she has never met in low and behold i think it's evil musk that. appears at one moment presumably you were joking when you said you wanted to go to mars on a one way trip no i actually i'm old enough to do it now i could do that now i'm just curious it points to a very very deep curiosity of course and orient it very well are you to work stains us in i'm always depicted as adept at the lint jeopardizing my life but the life of everyone else is proof you said i'm very good in the assessment of risk

. in proof that i'm a prudent is set in i don't know send yourself feel not a single act of ethical turret but let's face it i do believe that his dream. to colonize mars is is something we shouldn't do i think it's a mistake we should rather take care of our planet shia and not make a planet out there hospital which doesn't really wellcome us at all it's 10000 times easier to colonize the bottom of the oceans for example than colonizing mars yes send out a few robots and maybe a few extra minutes for scientific research and get them back but do not go like the locusts. greys empty our planet and then move on to the next one in family romance when characters do become conscious that they may be hurting people

conscious of their impersonations conscious of the illusion they seem to think the only way out is a fake death. yes that that is some sort of undercurrent in the film however the film shows and reality shows that the clients who rent persons to overcome desailly to replace a family member appearing are waiting less so they enjoy what they are doing of course some people thought that corona virus could bring society back together again rebuild it stop it being atomized do you think do you think it has helped bring society back together again very hard to make an assessment of the great society going no for example and family values become all of us and more important we look out who is really close to me who is really important so we go for the

essential snow who are the real friends and. in facilities and the increase in a context with family and i increase my income tax rates may be very best friends all the rest becomes an important electoral votes and work on things that i since it's essential if if one is lucky to have them of course i mean you're in los angeles coronaviruses hit the working classes right around the world disproportionately worse and in fact class seems to have. become an issue in l.a. because of its intersection with the race what have you made of what's been happening in l.a. recently you know of course a racial disparities become very evident in there we have seen it before agreeing when you look at the prison population not only in california on the united states

criminal justice is heavily based and i do believe that the soul movement. can be noticed maining their rights in being supported in having their rights is something completely necessary and over to you and i as a filmmaker and member of the academy. just yesterday received a new nearly accepted members and it's remarkable 50 percent almost 50 percent now of new arrivals into their. women a huge amount of african americans a huge amount of them. was from. from other cultures like latinos and other cultures and of course also

a lot of foreignness foreign filmmaker thank you not trying to get an oscar that by celebrating them because of course still people of color disproportionately targeted there what have you made of especially since you made that film about death row there being court decisions now allowing the resumption of executions in the united states well it's. something that is in the acceptable for me. and. i think it is. it is something which points to something barbaric. but it's the last thing i can tell the american people may be pissed opinions because only can tell them i am against capital punishment. because as a german i can not tell the american people cheney's people pakistanis how to deal with capital punishment and

a prison war it asked me he said very urban why i don't activist against capital punishment i said no but i fundamentally against capital punishment tell me why what's your reason and i said i do not have an argument and do not have a philosophical argument however i have a star i come from a country that executed takings of thousands of people because. back instead regime against the barbaric regime of hitler even telling a joke on hitler could cost you live your life in addition to the 10s of thousands of people executed because of a severely retarded or insane or not worthy to live 3rd in addition to that genocide an industrialized genocide of 6000000 jewish people

end of story. if we really understand since it's not an extended argument it's a story when i stop you there more from the legendary filmmaker after this prank. seems wrong. just don't call. me. yet to stamp out just the attic. and gains from it because the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground.

welcome back i'm still here with one of the greatest filmmakers of all time talk it's actually 75 years since the end of world war 2 if you've been watching i know you watch going underground but i thought he was covering the russian involvement in the 2nd world war surprise that certainly here in britain it was churchill who almost singlehandedly won world war 2 and and here in the united states is american g.i.'s who won the war but of course. we are completely and utterly aware that. russia lost 25000000 people for winning the war and i know that russian troops. well the ones who liberated consideration camps and streets in the us and. where their

days are. incredible sacrifices. on the side of russia and i do believe. it's ignore it because of crisis of political interests it's very much a question not what are the facts maybe 600 ourselves 1000 american soldiers lost their lives in the 2nd world war 2526000000 russians those are facts that cannot be ignored and today it's not that important what really happened it's worth dressin who owns the narrative who owns a narrative and occupying the narrative history aided some sort of dockside it. he's in looks at it the information that we see every day. i don't believe the demonisation of russia is a very very big mistake they think statues are part of

a narrative i know that they're tearing their statues there they are attacks my understanding of history. is different i think we should be aware that we are historically formed and we are formed by mistakes and we are formed by. what the past is history doesn't and she history doesn't function by erasing the trauma case history doesn't function by talking good money amends but users if you don't treat it very do you support the toppling of the statues of hitler in your country of your birth. yes but but it's i think of course in the spouse because insignia and all is fine yes however in favor of very much the publication of hitler's main comfort his. his writings to

date we have a new edition of it in germany just banned for a long time now days a new edition and you only can buy it with very faint and notations historians who point out what was the consequences of this statement of hitler what was the consequence of this or that what that paragraph in the book so it notated of course another element of the black lives matter protests has been the call to defund the police it's been criticized here in britain what have you made of it especially since your great film left hand and bad left hadn't you painted a very grim picture of your justice system that. well it's a movie style it's a shame it doesn't have to to do much with police addressed to do with some sort of prince george of movies and sharia. heretick matic characters and all that but i

must say my experience with police here in los angeles has been very pleasant and i do believe that only a very very small fraction of american police is rotten and acts in a way that shouldn't it shouldn't be it needs to be reform that's obvious and see no doubt defunding it completely into replacing men with boy scouts or beach along tees it would be stupid it doesn't function like that but of course the united states as we say on this program of turning in prisons per capita more than stalin or mao yes i see all this and i notice all this not in the business of america bashing america has been very good to me and i see this as somebody who is a guest here in the country i see of course all the deficits and i try to do my

best and try to. speak out whenever there is an occasion to point out things that are overlooked i know that in the past you have said how los angeles is an amazing place because of the cultural power it exerts right around the world is it losing any of that today or is it still that. i think it is still there because the things of great importance of great significance normally originate in in california and i mean the computer say internet started here in los angeles by the way the collective streams of the world in cinema hollywood which is not my cup of tea but we have to remark important things also the silly things like aerobic studios and yoga is for 5 year olds and so all the silly things that they have repercussions around the world they normally

originate from here very few other things come from other cultures muslim fundamentalism is not code for me i'm born and it comes from yemen and egypt and pakistan and saudi arabia they're obviously weapons companies in california that affect those other countries from where the is them is i'm comes from i suppose i mean do you notice any more a greater progressiveness in california regardless of trump happening in california right now a resurgent like back then i think it is yes despite of trump california is doing ignoring much of what's coming from the central government and it's inoperative and it's bold for example the electric car is tesla car as they come from coming for india the rockets to mute separation of probably this week on advertising on mask

throughout this interview. i mean i also you mentioned the academy they gave the top oscar to a crazy marxist film parasite by. ho is that tastes changing and becoming. well or like more like your tastes as a. as to the hollywood blockbuster that i know you don't like. well the academy has stunned astonishing seeing sint among others the korean film parasite winning it. and it's internationalizing of course. the academy into hollywood is in a way opening to films from other cultures that desperately trying to open to china desperately trying to open to to india to india but it's because of the size of the markets too early though for any amount of patient of indigenous peoples you've

always made indigenous peoples a feature of your films they've actually been hit by coronavirus disproportionately yes. that's catastrophic and you seed in brazil for example. and. yeah of crisis it has has been very much from my mind and it strains my wife who actually was pouring in the urals in the contrary and. for us in our region she has done an oratorio called last response composed of languages that are already extinct and languages that are critically endangered where there's only one or 2 or 3 speakers lift and of course i have paid attention now if very 10 days we are losing a hold cent which is what happens if we lose less you know what tolstoy no merkel calling no no. no one time to. know

which i cough skeet and it's catastrophic how indigenous people are wiped out and how their cultures are disappearing and now because of the corona virus they are one of the most in danger that the groups that we have out there. and of course this in the context of deforestation which has been linked to coronavirus you often talk about your germanic arijit is there a chance that we are living through a via my germany type period as as you then just talked about extinction of entire societies of languages of while while we all watch celebrities on television. it's not easy to connect to the right to the confusions of the right in my ear and in the repercussions in the results from all these very stable times

but. yes i think rebias shaking to a deeper corrigan normally because it does affect every person's. lifestyle in a way looking much way into late middle ages the big plague trines. into how it happened there are for example a re read. it down the l.t. fellows journal of a plague of the plague year in london. in the 1600s it's an incredible how he describes that a. week trial destroying outside of parliament in london bridge all of the racism in defoe it did actually do well in the bestseller's just as corona virus was anything but i'm going to ask because i mean we cover it here yemen the world's worst humanitarian crisis the wars haven't stopped despite the un

secretary general asking for it during coronavirus why do you think the media is at fault in covering conflict you said in lessons in darkness about the fires in kuwait i had the feeling that this looked really awful and it was just a media way to deal with it and i felt i should do it much better what what is it that can be brought to the subject visually and experientially that the media just isn't well. at the time and made the film about the fires of kuwait it was in the news in 10 seconds snippets in little clips every every evening but i thought there was something much bigger big show had to be done because it's not only a put it a political component in there bad guys of saddam hussein started to fire since and i thought it was speaker it was a crime and not only

a political crime it was a train against creation itself against the meaning of creation in a mater firmware in a way firmed it was imagery where you cannot recognize our planet anymore every single image is as if it were shot on a catastrophic different planet somewhere out in the universe and yet we know it's our planet try to to do a deeper approach that. back to what you're saying about yemen the situation in yemen this is highly highly highly complicated and complex it's not just simply a proxy war between east and west in saudi arabia and you're just name it it's very very complex and i'm not a pundit but i see what is happening and i do see what is happening and and i think it is catastrophic it is catastrophic him it has to be nearly

approached all vices a stand on what interests what the interests of the of us what other interests of saudi arabia what are the interests of the western community what are their interests on the ground on the ground it's a catastrophe and it cannot stay like that now as we face all the implications of. films you've made arguably your new film after family romance and see which is opening up here i understand is it about extra terrestrial threats to this world even though as we often cover here it's threatened arguably right corporations by military contractors and so on tell me about what fascinates you about meat is well there fireballs coming at us and they had a lot of repercussions in culture like for example in history for example the

blackstone at the southeastern corner of the car park in mecca is with all probability a meteorite it least a millennium before the prophet mohammed introduced islam big events it have. hit us a mysterious into a big event she sure looked in the york atomic peninsula a crater 200 kilometers across 65000000 years ago that wiped out the dinosaurs and almost all life on the planet and it had to we have to we have to be aware that 10 minutes she of hundreds of millions of hiroshima bombs maybe even thousands of millions of. amount of energy hiroshima bomb packed and these things can happen again of course when i talk thank you. thank you that's it for the show family row and fees amenable to history now

on the movie will be back on wednesday when the minneapolis city charter commission meets to decide on future possible evolution of its george floyd killing police force until then wash your hands and join the underground the following us on you tube twitter facebook instagram and. odd no team no crowd. no shots no. action to help speed up. when the well is track no arrests were. points your thirst for action.

welcoming our viewers from around the world live from central london this is r.t. u.k. . the metropolitan police are accused of unfairly using stop and search powers on young black men in london while an investigation is underway after police detained a black man for drug possession and smashed his car window minutes after he'd given a t.v. interview about institutional racism. to top black athletes are removed from their car and accuse the police of racial profiling and acting violently we hear from a former police superintendent. the u.k. government faces calls to deliver an early pay rise for health workers as the country marks the 72nd birthday of the national health service we get the reaction

of a community doctor. to delayed inquiry into the ground fault our fire receives but social distancing means bereaved families and survivors won't be able to attend we hear from a campaign of. the u.k. announces its iron sanctions regime independent of the un or e.u. for the 1st time as part of its post it breaks it foreign policy. police have been accused of disproportionately using stop and search powers on young black men in the london borough of camden since the start of the corona virus pandemic since march the number of people being stopped by police has surged by 70 percent police also carried out just under $4000.00 such as of these only 4 resulted in a rests over the past year and 8040 percent of searches were carried out on black

people despite just under 10 percent of the population being from that demographic in camden when it comes as the u.k.'s police watchdog are investigating a stop and search case where police smashed the. our window of a man who was wrongfully accused of drug possession ryan clark i was actually driving home after giving a t.v. interview about his experiences with stop and search as well as institutional racism and he filmed what followed but they cannot go holy word. there is now an utter. after coming from a channel 4 into the specific legal cannot get stopped by the police live with it happen oblate on an interview without start just to check my phone or think they should just leave held up the traffic just to stop me. and implied i was putting things in my waistband just as i saw them clearly there

wasn't any really there it was there was no drugs this never ever been drugs in my life never had distributed at stake in any league. in my life the video footage is clear to all under windows smashed my hands were up i did not resist any claim and yes something. that does go through my head a lot of. evil as the police feared was now. quite traumatic for me but it was. well in response a police spokesperson claimed i had been detained after failing to comply with directions from officers a commander of the police force in question asked the public to report any similar cases this incident comes a year since police in england and wales were given powers to randomly search people in order to fight knife crime or critics have always said the policy creates more opportunities for racial profiling according to anti search activists black people are 9 times more likely to be stopped compared to white people they also

claim the changes made it more difficult to hold officers accountable believes that criticism is justified. but actually my notice are more likely to be targeted by police forces in the case. then anyone a serf native heritage something of experience personally i've experienced it with the way that they speak to me sometimes and i know a lot of people give me similar stories that resonate with it is a reason why everyone is complaining about this because you guys see that not everyone carries a knife not everyone carries any sort of weapon and the reason the good lane about this is more so the manner that they treated well in the search yeah the criticism not. being tied to the black and the minorities very much just that. for me while a top british athlete claims the metropolitan police racially profiled her and her partner after they were stopped and removed from their car in london police say the

vehicle had been on the wrong side of the road and the driver sped off when asked to stop your war through war. crimes not. god we won i. 6 spent to be i can williams and portuguese athlete ricardo dos santos were in the car with their 3 month old son when the incident occurred their coach in a pick chantry name for christie most of the footage on twitter and accuse the police of institutional racism the met police say they looked into the footage and don't believe the officers behaved inappropriately. before the metropolitan police superintendent leroy logan told me the police have been disproportionately targeting black people for years. i'm aware that there was some form of pursuit which could of raise the tension and risk in the officers eyes which lead to quite heavy handed. impact with or encounter rather with the

occupants of the car even though there was a baby in that car so you know it is something that's not. seemed to be appropriate at the time but of course you've got to be aware of what list levels the officers were considering looking at the figures from the barack on of those as we were hearing earlier it seems that black people are disproportionately targeted by the police. well yeah i mean that's been the case for years since i gave evidence that the macpherson inquiry in 1908 you know stop and search a major issue the real irony is the bar command of camden is a secret for so among large groups so you know i know him personally and almost certainly he would want to be dealing with that directly but you know you can't do it you can't be everywhere a lot of it is down to the supervision and leadership on the ground you know with

the sergeants and inspectors holding their offices to account do you think stop and search is an effective method in reducing crime. summer surge is an affective tool but is a blunt tool nonetheless but this sharpened up with community intelligence and the more trust and confidence that police have the more intelligence intelligence they will gain from the community so that's the thing you know treating people are just like the big deal important to foster good relations and trust so you get more information from the community. the u.k. could face thousands of excess deaths within a year due to delays in cancer diagnosis and treatment because of coronavirus new research suggests $35000.00 lives could be lost by this time next year as a result of urgent referrals where team screenings and treatments being delayed by the pandemic the number is almost twice as high as previously suggested by researchers and h s england said the service had to strike

a balance between the virus outbreak and cancer treatment what we were concerned to do when the virus was increasing very rapidly in the population was to make sure that we could get the right balance between the risk of catching the virus and the risk of having people's cancer get worse and in particular the risks and benefits of things like chemotherapy where if chemotherapy isn't absolutely critical that it might be dangerous in terms of increasing your risk of coronavirus this wasn't a kind of attempts to police who should have treatment and who shouldn't it was more an attempt to try and help people think their e clearly. well that says u.k. health care unions have sent a letter to the government asking for an early pay rise for health workers as the country marks the 72nd birthday of the national health service the 14 unions have written to the prime minister and the chancellor asking them to appreciate the effort made by n.h.s. staff june the pandemic the letter says the government should introduce

a pay rise before the end of the year to make staff feel valued it also says such a move would help boost the economy as health workers would have extra money to spend in the shops a government spokesperson said that more than a $1000000.00 workers continue to benefit from the agenda for change a deal we are incredibly proud of all our health care staff and recognise their extraordinary commitment working day and night putting our care and safety at the center of everything they do more than 1000000 n.h.s. workers continue to benefit from the 3 year agenda for change pay deal under which the starting pay for a newly qualified nurse has increased by over 12 percent since 2017 to 2018 the independent n.h.s. pay review body makes recommendations to government on pay increases and we will consider their advice when we receive it a community dr anna hemming told me the government needs to deliver pay rises to encourage students to remain in and join the sector. but i think the salary does

pay quite a an impact certainly in bringing people into professions we've all got to make sure that we can make ends meet and certainly when i became a joke doctor over 20 years ago the salary was quite difference and i remember looking at how my salary went down by about $0.25 is a duels with doctors it changed and certainly the european time directive that came in in 2004 had a massive impact on doctors salaries now i'm sure the same has happened to other health care professionals as well and the big impact there is that i've watched other professions exceed and accelerates in their in their salaries and what they can actually achieve in buying a home for example and as a london doctor that actually makes a really big impact so i do think for professionals and 100

encourage bright young students into university places to study medicine to study nursing that knowing that they're be able to afford a quality of life that is in balance with the other professions that they're thinking about may be law or finance running businesses is actually quite important . after months of delay is the inquiry has resumed into the grenfell tower fire which killed $72.00 people in 2017 but social distancing rules mean that bereaved families and survivors won't be able to attend that's as a senior fire engineer admits that she did not think cladding would pose any issues and that she was under huge time pressure when safety strategies were being produced back in 2012. to ever stash as more. public inquiry into the ground to resume as of today it's now the turn of the builders behind the blocks refurbishment to face the full force of scrutiny however survivors and members of the community are not exactly happy with the way things have gone not just because

of the length of the procedures in general but also of course the lengthy delays we've seen time and time again when it comes to the grand fell public inquiry but now an additional stumbling block another hurdle in the course of justice is of course the $900.00 pound demick meaning that now social distancing is still an issue of course that means that survivors and members of the community are not able to be physically present to attend the hearings the room is only open for the inquiry panel witnesses lawyers and those are cross-examining witnesses as well for everybody else they'll have to stream it online having said can see that many people within the community they would have preferred that actually social distancing totally lifted and when that point comes then the inquiry should resume having said that according to 'd the majority of participants of around 600 people actually said they just want the procedures to get going as soon as possible so now we're in phase 2 of the inquiry of course phase one looked into what happened on the night of the blaze phase to looking out why it happened specifically those

companies that refurbish the book between the years of 20142016 really that's the ones that includes the cutting installation now joining me now live for more on all of this is a local resident and campaigner for justice when it comes to grunfeld morris thank you very much for joining us this afternoon obviously we are in the heights of the 90 pandemic but of course that does mean that the community can't really be present . i do accept that actually the community need to be saved however they need to be put at the heart of the bereaved inst survivors suspicion just need to be put at the heart of this inquiry and it has been possible for the inquiry they've got a number of months to actually organize something which allows what they call limited access limited access meaning actually different believed families and survivors would have been able to attain that and that inquiry been appropriately socially distance absolutely and so why is it so crucial for the members of the

community to be at the heart of this inquiry. will the bereaved insofar as have been the whole community we've got 3 years now of a limbo you know and we need to have a level of truth and accountability because it's having a massive impact on people's mental health. so the survey found that majority of participants they say that they just wanted the inquiry to get up and running as soon as possible sooner rather than later they say during certain except that i do accept that because the longer delay do as we say justice delayed is justice tonight you know and the longer that phase 2 is delayed the longer that the criminal investigation is delayed and again that me that has implications for the question of justice. so to come this hour. the u.k. government reportedly plans to end its use of hallway 5 g. technology just months after the deal was struck. and the u.k.

issues its 1st sanctions regime independent from international bodies as its foreign policy looks beyond that. join me every thursday on the all excited i'm sure and i'll be speaking to get us through the world of politics sports business i'm sure i'll see you then.

welcome back the u.k. has imposed sanctions independently from the un or e.u. for the 1st time as part of its post breck's it regime foreign secretary dominic rob said the blacklist targets the worst human rights violators but some say it may have a negative impact on relations among some other lies with questionable records r.t.u.

case is or early reports. this is essentially the 1st test by the u.k. of the establishment of a sanctions regime post breaks that up until now of course the u.k. being part of the e.u. if any is to shoes all individuals are subject to sanctions that would take place through e.u. institutions but now the government trying to lay out their own framework it's to come in with immediate effect and the government says it will impact people who are allegedly involved in the persecution of people who are of the religious minority or people who are involved in corruption and also scope for people who target search analysts and other individuals now the government say that these measures these types of sanctions won't just impact state actors and will be directed in the way not to impact the general population but individuals not just involved on the

government let's level and also not on state groups and organized crime mr speaker these sanctions are a forensic toll they allow us to target perpetrators without punishing the wider people of a country that may be affected the regulations will enable us to impose travel bans and asset freezes against those involved in serious human rights violations being cleared 1st the right to life record by assassination and extrajudicial killing 2nd the right not to be subjected to torture cruel inhumane or degrading treatment or punishment and 3rd the right to be free from slavery servitude or forced or compulsory labor. the powers enable us to target a wider network of perpetrators including those who facilitate incite promote or support any of these crowds and this extends beyond state officials to non-state actors as well so if you are a quick to crack or an organized criminal you will not be able to launder your drug money in this country now this list by the government includes individuals from
