archie sitting down with author blogger and public speaker james howard kunstler so thanks so much for joining us it's nice to be here let's get started with the occupy wall street movement is seen many media outlets try to ridicule them marginalize this movement as something that's temporary and really an artist teenage behavior and you've essentially called this bogus in your blog let's talk about what is your take on occupy wall street well first of all i think it's hilarious that all of these scolds in the media are shaking their fingers at these young people and say oh you don't you can articulate your position you have any agenda we're living in a time in the united states when the consensus about reality is so fractured even among people who are supposed to know what's going on that we cannot construct a coherent story about what's happening to us and what we're going to do about it so to expect the young people to be able to construct

a coherent narrative when nobody else in the culture is capable of doing that i think is a little unfair. what's more you can tell just from the placards that they're carrying around we know where their heads are read the the most significant or telling one that i saw said. i have seventy thousand dollars college debt twelve thousand dollars in medical bills i'm twenty two where's my bailout so that's a good enough reason to be out there i think so and i think what it represents is very clear it's the idea that this younger generation feels like their future has been sold out from under them but with major unions joining we've seen a much more kind of mature knowledgeable group of people come out onto the streets thousands of people do you think that's reason enough for the media and politicians to really start. seriously i don't know if we're capable of really interpretating

what's going on politically in our country right now you know i have a pet theory that the more social and economic distress a culture goes through the greater the delusional thinking gets so that you know as these social stress rises the crazy ideas and delusional ideas tend to increase it's not a very. good it's not a very good set of conditions for you know arriving at a picture of reality if we compare occupy wall street to the arab spring we saw american politicians on the mainstream media plotting the arab spring yet this is somewhat of a similar beginning of some uprising along those lines doesn't go double standard a little bit too obvious yeah it's amazing it's amazing that we were cheerleading for all those people in the street in tahrir square you know anderson cooper was

down there and you know all the other. usual media suspects were there cheering for the protesters in spite of the fact that there was a very good chance that the outcome of the revolution might not be so good let's put it this way you know the outstanding feature of the politics in the last three years has been that nobody on wall street has had to sit in a court room to answer for the tremendous amount of misbehavior in banking and you know this includes acts that can only be described as swindles and frauds well people have been talking about the lack of accountability ever since the financial meltdown took place three years ago but we haven't seen anybody come out onto the streets why now and do you think that this movement could end up taking america to a. better place at least in terms of pushing palate politicians to hold someone

accountable it's just that i do think there's a reason why we haven't seen a lot of protests the kind of things that have been happening to americans are very shameful they lose or draw they lose their income they can't support their families they can't feed their families their house gets taken away from them you know these are things that tend to be humiliating and shameful and i think that because of the way our system works where you know this is the land of freedom and liberty people blame themselves and they internalize a lot of the bad feelings and then you know they suppress it because it's shameful the combination of the shame and the anger that's all kind of mixed up with that has not really expressed itself and it may take a bit more to shove it over the edge and may take you know a bit more hardship now in one of your articles you say the hope invested in obama

will end up in a museum of lost hopes along with the integrity of t.v. news i want to ask you if this were to be obama's only charm as president what would he be remembered like in history well i voted for obama i think that he's probably when all is said and done he's probably a decent chap but it also appears that he's either a hostage to history or a hostage to a certain faction of our culture an economy like the wall street bankers and. remember over a thousand people were successfully prosecuted for the misdeeds in the savings and loan scandals of the late one nine hundred eighty s. and early one nine hundred ninety s. no significant figure from the banking community has really been even sat in a courtroom and had to answer for any of their their deeds you know there have been a couple of fluky cases including bernie made off. you know these are outliers

these are the marginal cases but really the heart of the system hasn't been touched i think that. mr obama will be remembered as kind of a spectacular failure and i also think that this is a period of history that is comparable to the eight hundred fifty s. in the usa that was the period that preceded the civil war and it was a period in which political institutions were failing you know an interesting thing happens in situations like this institutions lose what's called legitimacy with missy a reason to exist and the faith among people who have subscribed to that to their beliefs that they are worth believing in and you know we're seeing a grand failure of legitimacy now in the political system in the usa and it's rather frightening you are really sort of forecast every year for the year ahead what the united states should await i mean your forecast for twenty eleven you said

that the number one question really is kind of political economy be floating like the when he that boogaloo not of gusts of sheer fakery. alone poppy well i think that the air has been going out of it steadily but surprisingly slowly for three years and you know we're the whatever pin prick in this balloon you know where where it seems to be located at the moment is over europe with tremendous questions about the legitimacy of the european union and the banking sector more more generally but you know all of the banks in europe and north america are. interrelated and there's no chance that what happens on one continent is not going to affect another i think that there are sooner or later we're going to see similar problems. in the usa the air is going out of the balloon. it's been

remarkable that the fabric of this bubble was so strong but when all is said and it's a fabric of faith and confidence that the system is meaningful and sustainable and people are beginning to doubt that that that is if we could return to the role of the media you returned to this issue in your blog quite often you've written that they shout down invited guests commentators pander to their demographic and just their rivals for ratings what role do they play these days well you know culture goes through cycles when institutions. take various forms acquire a certain would you timoci and then blow it throw it away and i've seen it happen in my lifetime where you know the the authority of the evening news on the networks was unquestioned but what's happened is that you know i think that the media has

lost its confidence it's certainly in a great state of. convulsive transition we do know that younger people tend not to really get their news from t.v. at all you know they mostly get it from the internet. there are very few kind of vested legitimate authorities on the internet who are trusted news bringers they all appear to have an agenda of some kind or another whether it's left wing right wing capitalist socialists you know we never won it is and you know i think we have a long way to go before any of these things are sorted out and it's one of the reasons that we can't construct a coherent narrative about what's happening to us do you think the united states could face its own person i prefer to call it a reset because i don't think it's the end of the world or the end of culture. or the end of america i think it's

a reset of culture but it it but it can be very very painful and you know there will be a lot of losses involved of of property and status. and you know things that were important to people that they're going to lose and so we have to somehow be prepared for this period of history that's very difficult what i think we're seeing is something that i did expect that we would mount a campaign to sustain the unsustainable because of our tremendous psychological investments in the stuff that we've got running you know we put all of our national treasure into building freeways and building these massive suburbs and building all of the accessories and furnishings for them you know the strip malls and the malls and all the you know all the stuff that comes with them. that's where our national wealth has gone and you know we're not going to just kick it into the garbage can

without a struggle. but i don't think that it's going to work very well for us anyway so the final in the final analysis what i think is going to happen is america is going to be dragged kicking and screaming into a reset of daily life james howard kunstler thank you so much for your time. from the days of the manhattan project when. the university of california has been involved through the science that sat position and scientists and their relationship versity you see since day one has been in charge of researching designing and testing nuclear weapons and to some extent producing weapons every single on nuclear weapons. instigates arsenal was signed by university of

it was preparing to leave the yeah after the killing of colonel gadhafi but there are fears the country could now be plunged into chaos and mob rule. e.u. leaders brainstorm ways to save the euro zone slash greece's enormous debt it comes after the greek government approved more cards to secure a bailout leading to a two day strike and clashes with police. and happy service brand they were promised mandir barricades at a disputed border crossing in northern possible friday comes to troops who use tear gas to disperse hundreds of locals. while you're watching are the us forces next of course it is here with us in the studio and of course he has got more on the day rugby fans especially those in new zealand have been waiting for and that day has arrived and housing daydream it is world cup final big new zealand versus fronts as you rightly say they are in the final we have to look ahead to the plus the rest of the sunday morning.

elsewhere are still being open to kickstarter campaign at home against stoke fullam everton struggling bloc bernhardt home to spurs while third place chelsea travel to new boys q.p.r. but it's opening day clash which most eyes will be fixed on. i think that before we leave the old trafford. i do agree that it's good for us and that there is not. the same for united i think that you need to see if you play always or every game. right that brings us all into tennis where the weight must go on for a russian women's champion at the kremlin cup two thousand and seven was the last time a local prevailed on its richard pump or fleet reports this year the title will be resting on home soil either. at the kremlin cafe in moscow and russian interest on the winning side of the draw is the last remaining podium of this time i was in

straight sets six six two point slovakia's. was maybe a double specialist had done really well to reach the semifinals here in moscow disappointed she went out and she didn't really put up much of a fight so i slowed up opponent and this is great to be in the semifinal one in moscow in the home tournament and. it's yeah there was it's really clear that played really not my best tennis today against dominika and i was trying. i was trying to do everything to do what i can and i was fighting till the end and i believe that i can change the magic till the end i had the feeling that this can change because played against the many times she was up through a lot in the third set and i won both of that much just so i knew that everything can happen in the situations it was an exemplary performance sport a slope is growing in strength with every game if you please here in moscow and

especially after free our power from karens are going to be as one of the old in the quarter finals on friday all of the noise forcible have taken things it's not easy or getting a final so where will you know i was just playing too fast for her and that's why she was making the mistakes you know when it's never easy if you were in such a said you know then you just have to bump yourself in intervene on the second serve you know i was just little bit i have to sleep you know and i thought i had to get back into imagine just started weeping again because the same russians with on the inside of the draw away will not go on for another year this is. going into last one the ladies singles here. he's never won the w.c. tournament's will get another chance trying to win her maiden title on sunday when she plays kaia kanepi in the final. been in another finals in in two weeks you know and it's just as

a great feeling in and of course i know i don't have any debility title but i'm sure sooner or later it will come so i don't want to make a big deal about it then and i would just try to go out there and play my play my best tennis of them plenty of twists and turns and see a strip club just want of course the russian made these will be a new name a trophy because take some time i may be mistaken but i'll see. now we're just over an hour away from the biggest ribby clash for four years the twenty eleven world cup final bringing together odds on favorite new zealand i'm france to eden park or clint they decide a repeat of the first ever final in one nine hundred eighty seven where the all blacks prevailed the pictures you're seeing now are from this year's semi final between the kiwis on the street here the host proving just too good for the eventual bronze medalists winning twenty six. kept the same line up for the upcoming encounter although we'll enter the game as muhsin favorites

a quarterfinal loss to the french in two thousand and seven will ensure nothing you can put down to. three enjoy having the underdog take in and i think that when the french team most dangerous. i think they're written off and two thousand and seven leading into the following. came out just so for us to just focus on how we prepare and what we want to do in the game. the french meanwhile did what was necessary against the favored way to spoil the final mark meeting one's team but never looking truly solid in the nine eight when however david ellis the man in charge of the change the face of steamy stating it is the only bible topic for the stick and the all blacks are after all a superior team they have a great chance to win and we'll try to do the same defending against the kiwis for

the entire eighty minutes is impossible so we will have to go on the odd fancy of ourselves and cause problems for their defense. i bring this to baseball's world series for albert pulls on the st louis cardinals were able to spend their wings in the lone star state that cards now take a two one lead over texas in the best of seven series author who holds had three homers in a big scoring sixteen the seven when the cardinals quickly getting to grips on their route adventures having migrated to texas for the first of three games on saturday david three so maybe it should nothing jabal in the fourth before you like not police throwing our lights and listening to double take the rangers go back to make it five three still in the fourth the fan ops the pool halls to show why he's won the m.v.p. award three times the three run home run in the six that made the eleven six two run after followed in the seven before assume a run in the ninth the historic outing putting poor holes alongside some of the
