some of the top defense corporations in the country lockheed martin boeing northrop grumman and raytheon so why are the top defense corporations in the world advice in our lawmakers on foreign policy as we know the revolving door between government and corporations never stop spending open secrets dot org found that in two thousand and six one hundred fifty one members of congress had up to two hundred million dollars of their personal assets invested in defense. companies having that much financial stake in companies that make money by having the u.s. go to war begs the question are stakeholders concerned about and in the war or are they trying to make sure there's perpetual war for them to profit from and we can't forget the trilateral commission created by the good old david rockefeller as a way of better cooperation between the u.s. europe and japan some of its most notable members include george bush dick cheney bill clinton henry kissinger madeleine albright as well as a whole host of well known politicians and theos of multinational corporations like goldman sachs exxon mobil shel

security the national security agency and the house of representatives and companies like arisan raytheon and the american gas companies now all of these people seem to have made cyber security a top priority they seem to already be in talks with one another and most also seem very frustrated with the inability of congress to pass legislation on the matter we don't have a lot of time and what people don't realize is that we are in a war today in cyberspace it's happening every single day. and this is the biggest national security threat i can think of that we are not prepared to handle in this country today i guess i just want to get your take on what you think have been the biggest challenges up to this point because this isn't new that the people think that this is needed but it just hasn't really been able to happen especially on a government level i think the biggest problem is we need to inform people about the problem so they truly understand it as the discussion continues inside between government and business leaders president obama is sitting on a cybersecurity executive order th

drones becoming more widespread domestically and terms of internationally we have a company like raytheon saying that these small drones these many drones are less deadly because they're smaller and they're far be able to pinpoint and kill fewer people what do you think about that. right so there are these new tiny missiles that can be attached to tiny or drones and predators they're less than two feet long and in a way basically the tenth of what a normal missile would weigh so you could put them on these tiny raven drones or so they say raven drones are the ones that military officers can carry in their backpack and actually just use their hands and throw in the air and then start taking off i mean the problem is the technology is proliferating so rapidly that everybody every country's going to be able to use them you know over seventy countries have drones now we saw the other day in israel that a surveillance drone was flying in israeli air space and they shot it down they think it was from hezbollah but then israel responded by using a drone to shoot out a motorcycle in a street in g

when they they bought this factory from was it raytheon i think it was and then. and when i was talking with joanne on the radio show earlier today she works there at the time that this acquisition happened and they had no idea that bain was behind this they they were told you know these people came in and said hey we're now since out of technology's a nurse and solder whatever it is and we're going to move a factory in china they said that but nobody mention the word pain in the workers got together and they just started digging through corporate filings and things and discovered the bain was behind this is this kind of sneaking grab in the dark of the night thing characteristic of these vulture capital funds where yeah if you bring capital private equity from five out of the ten largest employers in united states or private equity firms a time and time again. or your company is owned by privately from time and time again i'm going to leave you struggle to figure out that it's owned by a private equity firm so you know it gets to a question of who's really dictat

place to say that drone surveillance can't lead to this future all right what we have a company like raytheon they're manufacturing these small and your owns and they're saying you know what these drones are smaller so they can be less deadly and more efficient because they can pinpoint their targets more efficiently and to kill less people when you think about that well in the united states thankfully. at the moment we're not worried about them killing people we're much more worried about them surveilling people however there are police departments that have expressed interest in having rubber bullets having tear gas possibly having deadly weapons on the drones in the future that's not in the cards right now that's going to be a little down the road however they are able to target surveillance targets better too so if some they want to keep an eye on a suspected criminal or maybe even just somebody they want to retaliate against somebody who may have gone to a protest and spoken out against the policy or department and they want to keep an eye on that person they're able to do that much more

>> we are recommending raytheon which reports tomorrow morning. what we like is raytheon is not a prime contraator so it has less headline risk to specific program platform cuts for ships and planes. it is more of a tear one supplier of tires and electronics. that end of the value chain is more resilience, a fairly attractive and has a high percentage of international business, the highest among the piers. lori: what technology is most in demand? >> something we call c 4 i s r, appellates and electronic surveillance reconnaissance computers communications, anything that has to do with getting data and information to the war fighter. lori: your research points to a romney victory as being more beneficial to the defense and aerospace sector. i you putting out two different outlooks or waiting until after the election? >> there is a prudence to some extent. we are in a better position to predict the election than anybody else. we understand this could go in both directions. it is interesting to try to figure out what is priced in the stocks and seque

another name cut today was raytheon.t was cut to underperform from neutral at bank of america merrill lynch. they're lowering the company and they have, price target of 56 bucks. we'll see where it is right now. right around the $56 mark. that is certainly another name we'll continue to watch. saying some of the defense cuts from the administration could possibly hit raytheon. that's why they're doing that move. back to you. melissa: nicole, thanks so much. president obama and mitt romney are getting ready for their first debate this wednesday. some conservatives say mitt romney needs a to do a better job selling his tax message which at times seems a little bit muddied. lou dobbs is here to weigh in. i think that was generous. >> very generous. by the way same can be said and should be said of president obama. what these two men are doing, in their economic policies, excuse me, is truly bizarre. they're both obfuscating a bit. to what end, one doesn't know. when you try to win election, seems to me, and i have only cove

and if 10% of defense company works are laid off fromockheed and boeing and raytheon, northrop grummands up to $400 million in pennalities. that is extra 400 million. it is double that if they lay off 20% of their workforce. that would be 800 million. melissa: it is an outrageous move i about the government and i don't see this being reported in the mainstream media right now. in the case of lockheed mtin, they said, we're talking about 123,000 employees. and it is the law, labor department. that we mustarn them. and if you don't do something about the fiscal cliff, on november 1st, we need to mail out the slips, let them know. they have families. they need to know in 60 days they are going to get laid off and the government said, shh, don't tell them. if will be okay. if they sue you, we'll cover the cost. it is a scandal. >> the gernment is telling companies to break the law. the reason you can see they're telling them to break the law, saying if there are any fines, if there any penalties we will pick them up. they're obviously looking at penalties and fines down the road. it is not
