the british prime minister, david lloyd george and american president woodrow wilson had vetoed this. at its core, churchill believed this went against the nature of the very soul, because it denied personal freedom and liberty for the sake of an all controlling police state. in russia and at this point, across most of eastern europe, stalinist told people how to live, what to think, and would work, and virtually every other aspect of their existence. there was no room for creativity persecution only to religion, and there was no room for debate. the kgb encourage people to turn in friends and family members who they thought had own communist views. and what was the punishment for such a crime as people were accused of? >> it was the harsh siberian labor camps in which many died of hypothermia, starvation, and overwork. tens of thousands of people under stalin's reign. since coming to power in 1922, stalin had in fact killed up to 30 million of his own firms and industry, mass purges and execution of anyone who he thought would oppose him the only news that russians could debt was by

payments average about a thousand dollars a month so here's david rosenberg calling the welfare queens when what is he called jamie diamond or lloyd blankfein who receive that in a second you know one can imagine david rosenberg kids around the dinner table having to walk like a chicken and pretend they're there is some dresser being tortured before they get any any portion of peace and there is rosenberg like squeal like a pig you little children old before you get any of this food well let's move on to inheritance then you brought up children a web of privilege supports a so-called meritocracy this is from gary young writing in the guardian and he's looking at the scandals emerging around the world well particularly in the u.s. and u.k. and how it exposes a web of privilege that is passed on from body to body by the very people who are then turning around and telling the electorate that get a job dance do something for me you know if you can't get a job then you know do something humiliating and i'll give you a few crumbs from my table so he says on both sides of the land to the social ties that bind our political legal and corp

lloyd. >> stephanie: david bender wowee, mitt romney. and focus-grouped to death which is why if you take every position on every side, you never really do tell a lie because the truth is whatever you need it to be at any given moment so the problem is not whether people are ever going to grow to like mitt. this isn't going to be about that. it will be about how much they can be told that they don't like barack obama. that's what the campaign is going to be about. the reason why -- what we're really looking at now is the laboratory tests. hal, you said wasserman schultz was in wisconsin yesterday. laboratory experiment. it is the scott brown of this cycle. and all the money that is pouring in from around the country, the koch brothers, our good israeli friend, adelson all putting money into this race, they're using this to test how destructive they can be to democratic efforts around the country. if this works, if they can prove that ending collective bargaining is a winning strategy, they're going to take that national. that's going to
