henry ford denied assemble cars them3 henry ford denied assemble cars themselves but they are all called a ford and a photography context when we think of them as the person behind the camera is less easy and has led to charges he took credit in a deceptive way for work to his employees performed. by the time the civil war began he was operating galleries 17 years. his goal within the first years to take a photograph of every important american. he kept up with the changes of technology and was now taking studio portraits printed on paper in march sizes but also a mass produced on what we would call 3d photos. probably the most important photograph he ever took and what is the it day of the famous cooper union speech of lincoln in the york that made him a viable presidential candidate. if you would recall it was beardless, three-quarters pitcher it was remarkably bring gold and his collar deposit in later he said he pulled it up to hide his long neck. but the image was widely reproduced it was used on but in this and illustrated papers and when brady solving and again after the election

henry ford's attitude was during this period after the european war broke out, the french and the british, they were behind in their armaments and wanted to buy stuff from us and we were cheerfully ready to sell them this and one thing they needed were aircraft engines for their planes and henry's on was called to washington to say we desperately need engines for the r a f. can you make some? he said oh sure, we can turn out quite a few of those and he went back, told his father what he had said and was an embarrassed face, had to tell washington we can't do it because my father will not build any goods for foreign government. he will make them for america but will not make them for foreign governments. that order ended up with chrysler which had the same qualms. the opposition to the war, not only getting into it, that was widespread but even helping the allies was incredibly strong. roosevelt had to literally walk a tight rope. the first thing he ended up doing was running for president for an unprecedented third term because he did not want to leave the country bereft of leadership. an

we did this before i think our guest we did this with hitler, henry ford and others we were enamored of the german miracle of course, what they nationalize to take away from them from the united states and our allies but we did hear when you do free trade with criminals you're not doing anybody any good in the long run. >> i live from the university in texas it with my economic development class we wrote a book called bad samaritans that talked about western imperialism and how in the end to be imposed there and how they are bad samaras since in that way and it talks about state-owned enterprises and how this could be beneficial in some cases handed your opinion is there ever a time when a state-owned enterprise can be a beneficial? at least to get it started as a possible effort to be private owned or is it ever a good thing or is it always leading to a negative? >> excellent question. benjamin franklin started the u.s. postal service i wrote an editorial a couple years ago on earth day i said it is basically degenerated into unfair competition against private companies like ups and

a well-known builder in the area, an admirer of henry ford, the idea of getting this down, having an assembly line, build this in quick-style. this is a 1932 -- i think he built this house. he was a pragmatic businessman. this has spanish colonial revival elements. a few years later, it is streamlined. modern. stylo-crat. it is better than being aristocratic. to sell them, he had to come up with clever names like that. like lafayette. he went with the popular taste. when the modern architecture started coming in, he was happy because it was less work. >> very little detail. you see detail in brought the city. people took tract homes and tried to individualize them in various ways throughout the cities. here is an example of how they might have done that. >> they had a lot of medallions and reliefs. >> the working class would go out to go swimming in the ocean. the wealthy would stay downtown like in the marines memorial or the elk and they would have heated saltwater. people wanted to swim in salt water. >> how did the water get there? >> there was a pipe that allowed it to flow all

workers and low wage workers a race and again, i want to emphasize and this is something that even henry ford understood in 1914, you give workers a race they can buy stuff and right now walmart is the largest employer in the united states and taking the part time workers, it's typical pay is way below $9 an hour. that is not sustainable in terms of this economy or any family. >> okay. we'll have to leave it there. gentlemen, thank you so much for joining us. this is a conversation that will continue for sure. professor robert rice from burkely. >>> the multi-billion-dollar race to treat alzheimer's disease and the companies at the forefront but first, how the international markets closed the day. >>> no bargain today for groupon shares and that's where we start tonight's market focus. shares jumping after morgan stanley raised the rating to over weight siting straight in north america. they rose to $10.66 but more than doubled so far this year. >>> another company seeing strong gains today, the distributor of fasteners and construction supplies. it says sales in august surked 7% from a year

i think our guests with earlier would let you know we did this with -- henry ford and other businessmenran to germany in the 1930s. they were in hamburg with the german miracle of turning the economy around. they open plants there which the german government rent nationalinationali zed and turned into weapons systems aimed at the united states and our allies. we have been here before. when you do free trade with criminals you were not doing anybody any good in the long run. >> my name is robin and i'm from howard payne university in texas. in my economic development class we wrote a ocala call bad samaritans and it talked about western imperialism and how the u.s. and great britain kind of imposed their western views on other countries and how they are bad samaritans in that way. it talked about state-owned enterprises and how those can be beneficial in some cases. i was wondering in your opinion is there ever a time when the state-owned enterprise can be beneficial at least to get it started and is it possible for them to become tightly owned or is it that for a good or is it always --

effect yeah the henry ford of fact it's called the multiplier effect and when you give when you give low wage workers a dollar it actually goes around the economy much more effectively than when a high income owners of capital take that dollar and that's because this wal-mart workers are living on the edge of poverty many of them even if they're working full time or below the poverty line that means they have a whole host of unmet needs and if they get an extra dollar in their paycheck if they get an extra ten dollars in their paycheck they're going to go right out and spend it on like a wealthier person who may put it in the investment because they're saved in other ways that don't circulate catherine version thank you so much for being with us tonight thank you so much for having me. right now four out of five americans live within twenty miles of a starbucks there are fourteen thousand plus mcdonald's coast to coast and subway boasts a whopping twenty five thousand american locations but one city san francisco is saying no to mega chain domination since a ballot initiative wa

when the industrial giants of the 20th century wind up comment andrew carnegie, henry ford, kyl coto, a korean captain of industry will be among them. by the 1990s, it was clear which korea had won the war, but the contrast between the two states could not have been starker. one was a regional power, prosperous, democratic with a growing international reputation. in 1998 seoul olympics vividly showcased to billions around the world that south korea was no longer the poverty-stricken ward in the past, but a vibrant, rich and modern society. the other korea had becoming a dependent nation wracked by poverty, isolation and repression. the demise of the soviet union in 1991, russia and china said the amendment of the friendship system and demand for high currency for exporters resulted in a steep decline in the north korean economy. a series of flags in north korea's agricultural says added to kill young's misfortune. the result was a famine on a massive scale in which an estimated 2 million of his people perished from starvation. the contest for korean legitimacy was over. the south had

karl dietrich sees himself more like a henry ford. are you obsessed? >> i could say that, yeah.omewhat obsessed with the idea of the flying car. this is something that has -- in my view it is ridiculous that we do not have a flying car today. >> reporter: history tells us the odds against him with overwhelming. that said, karl's obsession, his big dream is off to a flying start. >>> and that is it for us here on "america tonight." please remember if you would like to comment on anything you have seen here tonight, log on to our website, aljazeera.com/americatonight. you can meet our team, get tips on what we're working on, tell us what you would like to see. and you can join us on twitter or our facebook page. good night. we'll see you tomorrow. ♪ >> welcome to aljazeera. here are the top stories, a fire still burning tonight on the jersey shore, more than 30 businesses have been destroyed along the boardwalk from sea side park to sea side heights. governor chris christie has a message for visitors. >> do not come here. do not travel, stay away. we are still trying to bring more

she was born the year the chicago cubs won the world series and henry ford introduced the model t.people on the planet can make that claim. thats why why emilia 'nona' rossi is definitely one of 'chicagos very own.' that's pitiful. although she does not stand more than 5 ft. 2 in., nona rossi always commands attention at family gatherings. a every year another person comes around and amazed that she is still here. she still knows everybody. that is what is amazing. she knows when our kids birthdays are and she is very aware. not bad for a young woman who stepped off the boat in 1929. she was born in northern italy september 16th 1908. she met her husband joseph joseph in the spring of 1929 and married him three months later. he had been to america and wanted his bride to see the land of opportunity. we got on the boat in genoa october 29th 1929 on be known that several hours later the united states would have a crash. my husband used to work in the steel buildings of chicago and my brother came along in 1931. another brother in 1932. they said, forget it. we are staying here. their

henry ford didn't assemble cars himself and yet all the cars are called for thes. in a photography context where we think of a photographer as a person behind the camera this has been less easy to understand and led to charges that brady took credit in a deceptive way for work that his employees performed. by the time the civil war began brady had been operating galleries in new york and later in washington for 17 years. is bowl had become within the first few weir's on broadway to take photographs of every import american and almost everyone posed for his camera. he kept up with the rapid changes in technology and innovative a few. and printed on paper, and expenses. and also mass-produced photographs and stereographs and 3d photos. the most important photograph brady ever took which i don't have here because you know it so well, was the one of lincoln on the day of his famous cooper union speech in new york, the speech which made him a viable presidential candidate. lincoln was if you recall law beardless lincoln, quarters picture, wearing the suit on the train w

i think in the context of a businessman or business you think henry ford didn't make the cars and the cars are all called fords so all these photographs that we've taken under bradys are just photos by brady. >> suarez: so how do you define his impact or influence on the very image we have of that -- of the civil war? >> i think it's just central, it's crucial. brady -- beyond the photograph he took or commissioned to be taken, he was a great collector of photographs and to some extent a great stealer of photographs of others or copier of photographs of others. this was wildly done but brady did it with a single mindedness so there are just thousands and thousands, maybe as many as 10,000 images from those years that we have because of brady and his enthusiasm for pulling a collection together and preserving it. >> brown: how did you feel about his contribution to the his history of photography itself, the art of it, as well as what we're talking about, the business of it? >> well, garys will read my book early on and gary read something about it said brady didn't just make photograph

slide, -- landslide and he didn't want to do it for reasons that are still slightly mystifying, and henry ford, the summer he had this mad idea to build an american city, and so it was just kind of one thing after another, lots and lots and lots going on so the nature of the book changed to not just be of the two iconic figures, ruth and lindbergh, but looking at all of the stuff that was happening, so what's interesting is the first talking picture filmed that summer. it was a demand of activity, a great deal of which changed the world. you know, changed the way we perceive popular entertainments and so on. it was a consequential summer, but interesting and lively one. >> any reason all the events happened in the summer of 1927? >> they just happened. that's what's interesting about it is that, you know, sometimes these things just happen, you know, and all of these things happen then. it was not by and large any particular reason. there was not there because they had to happen in the summer of 1927. it's mostly they just happened then. there were connections. i mean, the reason that lindberg

tobacco and he gripped with the ambition to be in on japan nor he drove like with andrew carnegie and henry ford those are the americans have the deep rooted this in history that is very evident when you travel to the piedmont region but he created it trait -- a chain of truck stops between north carolina and virginia with fast food restaurants while the countryside was collapsing wal-mart and multinational oil companies almost made it possible for him to compete and tobacco was dying as an industry and so was it textiles and by the time he tried to make it as the entrepreneur were there rule south was beginning to look a lot like the core of the city's with rampant drug abuse with multiple generations on public assistance. unemployment and a despair saddling in. price had a vision how he could recent -- resuscitate that around him he had a series of the epiphany been a man from a religious area his vision was a revival of the countryside through what was right at hand that was a waste oil from all the fast-food joints that is to say by a diesel to become a bio desalt watching for newer. i will

is your -- heroes replace people like andrew carnegie and henry ford. he has a deep rooted in us in our history. very evident when you travel to the piedmont region of the carolinas but he printed a chain of truck stops with fast food restaurants. all the while the dash countryside was collapsing. walmart and multinational oil companies were making it almost impossible for him to compete and in the meanwhile tobacco was dying as an industry and so were textiles the other mainstay of life trade by the time he tried to make a go of it as an entrepreneur the war -- rural south was beginning to look a lot like the core of our cities with rampant drug abuse and multiple generations on public assistance, unemployment and kind of despair settling in. dean price like all the characters in the book, had a vision of how he could resuscitate the collapsing order around him and he had a series of epiphanies. being a man from a religious area although he turned and rebelled against his father's harsher christianity he remained a spiritual man and his vision was a ki

here is a look folks at the new apple iphone 5s, previously just white or black, maybe going the henry ford silver and gold. so there is a look at the iphone 5s. looks similar to what we have now. this one is a metal finish. you've got granite, you've got gold and black. there are your new options. if you're interested in the guts i think of the a 7 as a nice looking audi, the a7 will be the new looking chip into the iphone s. phil schiller calling it incredibly fast. they were demonstrating games inside. if you're a mobile gamer, if you're interested in mobile video and that's been a huge move right now, apple going after those markets. they want those graphics and those videos to be smooth. this is going to be a very fast chip and some new colors as well. there's your look. the iphone 5s not heard about a price point yet. we did get one for the 5c. a lot of breaking news continues to roll out here on a beautiful day in silicon valley. back to you. >> thank you very much. let's see what's coming up from your friend mandy on "street signs." >> hey there, obviously it's going to be a really

it's similar to when henry ford said we're going to make a car for everybody, a model a for everybodywants to bring down the cost and they can really ramp up production. henry ford comes with a lot of illogical baggage. >> you said before you don't get in the way of a cult stock. at this point your thoughts on tsla are -- >> it could still go higher. i did a piece last night on netflix saying netflix can go higher. >> even after a couple of downgrades last week. >> breaking bad is like walking dead where you literally need to get in it. you heard les moonves talk about how he needs netflix in order to be able to have those -- >> more than he needs outer wall. >> incredible. my advice to outer wall is kind of mohamed ali. you can run from being red box but you can't hide from weaker earnings. >> when we come back, the head start you need as we count down to the opening bell. futures hanging in there, mildly positive after that 118 gain yesterday. a lot more "squawk on the street" from the nyse straight ahead. >> tomorrow the fed's next move. is this the day the taper begins? the fed sp

shape of small towns and make a lot of people rich, but it--the companies it made rich--i mean, henry ford because he was a winner--but also, all of the other companies that were able to use the automobile to do their business more efficiently so similarly, it may turn out to be that the internet makes the typical sort of old economy companies more efficient and more valuable, even though a lot of the dot-com companies fall by the wayside. c-span: there's a quote in your book--and i thought i had it here; i'll have to find it again--page 43, you say, 'the total income of america's 12 million black households is approximately $430 billion a year. the net worth of the 30 richest americans, according to forbes'--now this is six-month-old numbers, but--'the net worth of 30 of the richest americans--it equals approximately $440 billion. that's $10 billion more than all blacks in america. so 30 people in this country have a net worth that exceeds the collective annual earnings of black america.' what does that mean? >> guest: well, the figures haven't--haven't changed much, and while some guys a

back in the early 20th century, henry ford had the idea that he needed to pay employees at ford motorpany -- i think it was five dollars a day, so that they could buy the cars they were building. it is not rocket science. a highwho have propensity to spend, meaning they need to spend what they earn in order to support themselves and their families, are going to spend that money. and they are going to spend it at their local grocery stores, at their local gas stations, at their local restaurants, movie theaters, the department stores. they are going to spend that money. it is going to be good for their local economies. host: one more call. caller: hello. it is very good to listen to you today and to get a lot of good ideas going on. thank you very much. i have a couple of points. if you look at the graphs workersthe wage of the on one line and the productivity of the workers on another line corporationsof the , whoever gets to keep -- and the wages of the corporations, whoever gets to keep all the since the 1970's, they stay relatively even. once we get to the 1980's, the top line kept

. >> henry ford, by all accounts, an uneducated man.ays tell their friends at bridge games when joey's ds came out, well, you know, albert einstein didn't do well at school. do schools fail nonconfirmist, quoting jobs, the crazy one, the ones who think different? >> right. >> how do we figure out how to -- how to mold these kids without just shoving pills down their throats? >> right. the paradigm -- we're talking about not just troublemakers. we're talking about normal kids who behave like kids. our schools have a time honored method of dealing with them. there was discipline. your kids write 100 times on the board. you punish them if they acted up and they got the message. but now the expectations in schools have changed completely. we expect our kids to have something called self-regulation. that they're supposed to have this little minder inside their heads that tells them how to behave. a lot of curriculum in schools has been shifted towards teaching this self-regulation. and so a lot of schools have these morning meetings where ki

if raising the minimum wage was all it takes and the henry ford used to say i want my workers to be ableg on on the assembly line. but if it really worked, why not raise it to $30 35 or $40 an hour? >> i think the bottom line is to have a reasonable minimum wage -- >> you don't think the businesses like mcdonald's and walmart which pay more than minute wage -- >> costco is in favor of raising -- >> real quickly. how is obama care going to affect chicago/illinois and what do you think about rolling out this program? is it going to get dicier or is it going to get better? >> there will be refinements and improvements but basically we're going to include a lot more people in health coverage, decent health care. i think it's a very important fundamental right and related to that, rick, is the health insurance exchange is going to help a lot of self-employed -- >> if we can get them open. we're short on time. >> you're my man. >> after you tackle all of these rats nests you want you to come back and give us an update. >> okay. >> carl, back to you. >> an important issue. thank you very much f

henry kissinger was secretary of state under presidents richard nixon and gerald ford and is now chair of an international consulting firm and zbigniew brzezinski served as national security adviser under president jimmy carter. he's now a professor at the johns hopkins school of international studies. henry, let me start with you. i think that maybe many of the questions that people are wondering is what exactly was the russian motivation here and sort of how did they pull it off? you have met with vladimir putin more than any american stretching back over a decade. what do you think is putin's game here? >> putin, in my opinion, considers radical islam his biggest security threat. but that's not for the united states to unilaterally determine how the situation in the region will develop. so when the administration found itself in the extremely difficult and potentially embarrassing position of having to request military action refused, he saw an opportunity to perhaps get into step with us by easing an immediate american difficulty but solving a common problem. in my observation, his
