but professor aviva chomsky describes as the arbitrary labyrinth of the enticement of obstacles which has various unintended consequences and describe various agencies as welcoming and threatening imprisoning and deporting illegal immigrants. no wonder they're confused. she does not advocate a solution our policy but suggests that officials must examine the deeper structural reasons for illegal immigration and i would like to hear her response to the proposal for a limited legalization. >> i used to work and the world from and the earlier conversation of what is possible today what is possible of politics? might own view is republicans controlling both houses with the notion of citizenship for the 12 billion better here it just is not doable. on the other hand, we cannot deport them so to be in this country those that qualify, those who don't have a criminal record or pay back taxes or a fine fine, show evidence they are employable, we put them into a vehicle status -- a legal status. the notion of citizenship has been politicized but there are many with the notion of the law breakers

even this critique of corporate power, one that figures like nader or noam chomsky will give is shut out. those of us who offer this critique are not offered a platform on national media. gnome and ralph and i find i'm about to leave for canada on friday and is one cbc show after another. the last time i was in canada speaking at ryerson university the cbc film is shown and we want to thank c-span for being here but they filmed the show and devoted a one-hour program to it. that is impossible within the united states. i used to wonder whether huxley was right or orwell was right and i think it turns out they are both right. in a sense what we first got was huxley in this week now reached a state where we can't get credit were all of those cheap manufactured consumer products are no longer easily accessible or available and sheldon noel in his grave look democracy incorporated caused those consumers in one of the two primary forms of political control. once those are removed we increasingly get the iron boot the iron fist that orwell predicted. turns out i think that orwell and huxley

. >> larry: you know the cops are running wild when gang leaders start sounding like noam chomsky by comparison. bad, man. so anyway, last night i headed down to baltimore and i sat down in a diner with some rival gang members who called a truce and we ate little pie. take a look. i'm here with some of the brothers who are here in baltimore here doing all the uprising the unrest. have you guys eaten you have looked at the menu? >> i already know what i want. >> larry: can we have a waitress in here. who brought you guys together? >> i have known this brother a long time. known this brother a long time gr how long you have known him. >> like four years. >> four years. >> larry: in dpaing time, that's like an years right. so are you guys in the same organization or different organizations. >> no, the same organization. >> larry: same organization. you're the same. you're the same. you're not in the organization. >> i'm cool with everybody. >> larry: he's cool with everybody. >> he's cool with everybody. >> larry: so you guys guys have called a truce-- wait, is it a truce or a treaty? i

and, of course, as noam chomsky has written, those liberal institutions acted as a kind of safety valve to ameliorate the grievances or injustices of the citizenry and write the kind of capitalism. but the destruction of that mechanism by which you could address a crisis within capitalism and, of course, the new deal addressing the breakdown of capitalism itself is gone. we are barreling towards a frightening global neo-feudalism. we have empowered a rapacious oligarchic elite. we indeed, live in an oligarchy. we have destroyed the capacity of our working class to make a sustainable income and the assault on the middle class is far underway. and at the same time the state, the corporate state is squeezing more and more and more and rendering the government less and less effective in the terms of meeting the demands of citizens, and that is borne out now with these secret trade agreements the tpp and cafta and others where, essentially, the power of the state to even intervene in terms of corporate exploitation is removed from them. now, all of this creates a very frightening kind of pol

>> did you think normal chomski was a surprise? i was not that shocked by that. i was not totally surprised he had a copy of why "not cool." >> i am not cool. >> he had an autographed copy which means he bought it at g gutfeld.com. you keep talking about the internet access being spotty, but he took the time to g to greg's website to get an autographed copy which is great. i think it is only polite if they ask if you are willing to be a suicide bomber. that's something you ask ahead of time. >> it is one of those things they would spring on you at the last minute. you are getting your vest on and dynamite and john, good news-bad news. good news is we are killing a bunch of infidels. >> i totally get why he read the 9/11 truther stuff. i think he got a good laugh. on rare occasions i will go to the postings at "red eye" sites and i will see a lot of things asserted that are literally the opposite of the truth. but the people who assert them act like they know stuff and it is hilarious. he was doing the exact same thing. >> i am matrixy and i am trying to wrap my h
