The 90's, episode 301: MONEY, MONEY, MONEY
9:09 ""Joel Kovner"" by Nancy Cain and Judy Procter. At the First Professional Bank in Santa Monica, California, bank president Joel Kovner gives a brief tour of the vault. ""Before the bank opened we played monopoly with real money."" 12:09 Prof. Paul Nadler commentary by Skip Blumberg. Nadler explains how bank loans have changed with the existence of fixed interest rates. ""Savings and loans started as a family financial center. You brought in your deposits and they'd make mortgage loans. It used to be what you'd call a 3-6-3 business. They'd take your money at 3, they'd lend it back to you at 6, they'd be on the golf course by 3. It didn't take much talent to run a savings and loan. Basically where the money went - they were paying it out, paying it out and not earning it. They refused to admit they were dead, making it the biggest scandal in American financial history. "" 16:59 ""Ed Sadlowski"" by Tony Judge. Ed Sadlowski, of the Steelworkers union in South Chicago talks about the economic disparities in the United States. ""The real question at hand is the distribution of wealth. Look at the situation of health care in this country. It's criminal. Yet who's opposing it the most? The insurance companies. A few years ago if I said we needed a national health insurance program the Lee Laccocas call me communist, socialist, everything else in the world. He's not championing the cause. He's on my side for a change. To share that wealth is to share power. When you start talking that way, pal, they put you up against the wall."" 18:24 ""Andrew Jones in Iraq."" Jones talks to us from a peace camp in Iraq where an international group of protesters have formed a human shield between armies to attempt to prevent the beginning of the Iraq War. ""I'm a black American and Bush had astutely put the deadline [for Iraq to pull out of Kuwait] on Martin Luther King's birthday, January 15. Bush was assaulting an idea - an idea of peace...it could have been January 18, January 20, it could have been any day. I was pissed off at him for desecrating Martin Luther King's birthday."" 25:32 More from Prof. Paul Nadler. ""One of the problems with America is we live in a world where everything has to be solved - instant journalism, instant success. A guy makes a speech and within one minute a reporter has to analyze it...What have we done to this country?"" 27:22 ""Susan Cohn"" by Skip Blumberg. On Broadway in New York, Susan Cohn, a career counselor, talks about American cultural domination and the people's differing definitions of what it means to be rich. 32:40 Andrea Carmen speech by Robble Leppzer. ""At the heart of the struggle is a conflict of world view. We could talk about the indigenous world view and the corporate world view. The indigenous world view looks at this world as something that is alive. The corporate world view sees the world as something dead, something to be used and to be used as profit. The corporate executives of the world are holding us all hostage. If somebody came into your home and pointed a gun at your children, you would act. Don't you feel that desperation that we feel?"" 34:55 ""Eco Rage"" by Robbie Leppzer. A look at a demonstration on Wall Street the day following Earth Day, 1990. ""We got the power to save the earth,"" chant the protesters. They clog up traffic with trash cans and bike racks and encourage Wall Street workers to take the day off. One protester is mercilessly beaten by the New York police after feigning to stop traffic in the street. 37:12 Todd Alcott by Skip Blumberg. 90's regular Todd Alcott rants. ""It used to be if you needed furniture you made furniture. Everybody had the skills they needed to survive. No one makes things anymore, they have jobs. They work at an office...not to produce a thing, but to make money to buy things. We're disassociated from our own possessions. Can you make a shirt? I can't. We have no connection to things and how they're made. Consequently we have no connection to each other. Money has become the fifth element. It can cancel out the other four because it can take their place at any moment. You don't need to tame fire anymore. You just need to pay your gas bill. The Indians used to think the earth was sacred. It was holy. Anyone will tell you today that it 's just capital waiting to be exploited. The whole planet is a business, Earth Inc. Assets 48 kazillion dollars. What is that?!! Is that a reason for opening your eyes in the morning?..."" 40:11 ""Bowery Forger"" by Dee Dee Halleck. Blacksmith Tovey Halleck at work in the Bowery. 43:27 Harry Magdoff commentary by Esti Galili Marpet. Magdoff, an economist, talks about the problem of homelessness in the United States. ""There's no reason that with the resources this country has that there can't be homes for the homeless. When it came to the Second World War we had to build very quickly. It was achieved relatively simply and in record time, but it was for war, it was for destruction. In times of peace, the possibilities are all here."" 46:39 ""Ruth Handler"" by Judith Binder and Jody Procter. Handler, co-founder of Barbie dolls, now produces prosthetic breasts for masectomy patients with a company called ""Nearly Me."" She explains her history of how difficult it was for her after she lost her breasts while giving us a tour of the factory. Handler shows us her prosthetic breasts, literally unbuttoning her dress and taking them out of her bra. 52:38 More from Ed Sadlowski. ""There has never been a man who has worked for another man who was paid his due. People bitch about a ballplayer getting a million dollars a year playing second base for the White Sox. When I take my grandkid to the ballpark I don?t take him to see Jerry Reinsdorf and Eddie Einhorn. I go there to see the ballplayer play. Why shouldn't the ballplayer get the dough rather than two guys sitting in a skybox somewhere?"" 54:00 ""The Money Man Monument"" by Doug Michels. A satirical piece featuring a mock meeting of fundraisers for the Money Man Monument, a skeleton in a suit placed in a tube of money on Washington DC's Mall - ""a permanent tribute to green power and the American Way."" 54:58 More from Prof. Paul Nadler. Nadler talks about the change in tax laws and how 90% of Americans pay more social security tax than they do income tax. 56:03 Wally Nelson by Robbie Leppzer. Wally Nelson has not paid his income tax for 42 years. He refused to fight in WWII and was jailed. ""If I refused to let my body be drafted for killing, I should not let my money get drafted to pay for killing. We do not have to feel we are powerless."

Diefenbaker's Speech at the United Nations
Continued from Shot No. 55381 (Part 13/15 of speech): WAS of Prime Minister John Diefenbaker concluding his speech to the United Nations Assembly on September 26, 1960. Transcript is as follows: "We suggest that experts, in an experts' bank, if you will, might be recruited for medicine, public health, sanitation, public welfare, distribution of supplies, communications, transportation, and police services. To set up an experts' bank would make for administrative stability instead of having to rely on crash recruiting campaign for this purpose after the need arises. One matter which Canada has pressed in the past, and which I now repeat, is in the field of providing aid through food contributions. The problem of feeding the millions of chronically hungry and under-nourished peoples of the world is tragic and urgent. Some of our countries have tremendous surpluses of cereals and other foodstuffs. We also have the capacity to increase our production greatly. Canada's surplus of wheat, as of July 31, was 536 million bushels. Mr. President, surplus food, piled up in sterile storage, is hard to justify when so many human beings lack adequate food and nutrition. I realize, as the FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization) has stated, that agricultural surpluses of the more advanced countries would only be temporary relief and therefore would be incomplete. I believe, however, that much must be done on behalf of food-deficit countries, first to help them in their hour of need and then to help them raise their own levels of production. This to me is the responsibility of the United Nations as a whole, to meet this challenge.A few countries cannot underwrite the costs of transferring their surpluses to the countries in need. What we need is to join together in contributing to a solution of truly world-wide scope to this problem of the world's suffering and starving peoples. We have tried to do that. We have no ambitions internationally. We covet no country, we want to change no country's views. We have made available in wheat and flour to under-developed countries aid in the amount of 56 million dollars. I now welcome and commend the suggestion made by the President of the United States last week that the Assembly should seriously consider devising a workable plan along the lines of the "Food for Peace" programme. We envisage a "food bank" to provide food to Member states through the United Nations."Continued in Shot No. 55382.
