henry ford would have done that. so we end up with a difficult questionth. >> it's time to wrap it up tonight. this is the book you want to look for. thank you, thomas for being here with us and thank you to everyone for joining us tonight. we hope to see you again at our next author talk. >> i am so pleased to have with us this evening associate managing

he was talented of course and his superiors thought henry ford ford -- brought henry ford to an edison company event of which thomas edison was present. edison is established and older, rich and famous and ford is a nobody. the two of them started a conversation with the young whiz kid who is adept with machines and the older guy who understands inventions and they start talking and what they start talking about is an idea that henry ford has four building a newld kind of automobile and ford has been playing around with the idea of powering an automobile with gasoline and he's inventing an improved gasoline engine. he's putting together bits and pieces in his spare time and trying to make this revolutionary new gas engine and edison assassinated. he listens to this young man ans he tanks boy he's really got something going on. the two of them become friends and it was years later after ford the assembly line is a way of making the model to cut down costs tremendously and ford put it together with his automobile. everybody wanted the model t. this was a revolution in america because up

henry ford was a very smart guy. he did a very good job he was that camping buddy the presidents that were buddies were harding and coolidge. harding was pro-business republican president. he and henry ford went camping together, they talked the same language, they were buddies. as long as harding was president everything would go ford's way. that was great. but then harding died suddenly while in office. he passed away what was probably a stroke or heart disease. and calvin coolidge is vice president became president at that time. he was much cooler on ford. that created a problem. coolidge talked a good line but he did not follow through to give ford his support. instead, a group of senators in the u.s. senate formed an opposition group they wanted government control instead of private control for this enormous resource of what turned out to be a series of more than a dozen dams on the tennessee river. eventually ford's image of a single damn turned into more than a dozen it is an enormous project. the senators wan

that was certainly true of henry ford. henry ford wanted to take what he saw as common sense ideas about what was good for people and he wanted to apply that to essentially his own private situation but it didn't happen. it would have been interesting to see if it had happened it would have been an interesting experiment because if they had gotten what he wanted we would have had a united states that the verlander the control of one industrialist. it would have been similar to have an a 75-mile long factory that would include 1 million people and dominate an area of the heartland of the united states. that combination is something that didn't happen. the government didn't allow to happen and it would have been interesting to see what would n have happened. not that elon musk going to mars is the same thing. >> wshe's said you mentioned fod becoming president. do you think he would have been a good president and do you think he would have made this whole plan happen had he been elected? >> yes and had he been elected he wou

henry ford and calvin coolidge president of the united states got together in the white house and henry ford agreed not to run for president. for ford's control of this project it was a secret deal and was controversial and evidence that it happened but once the news, what happened is george morris got a hold of the scandal. he found out about the secret meeting and blasted it all over the media. once it became a public scandal, calvin coolidge already backed off. had he been president, my view is he would have been a president unlike any president we've ever had. he would have been an autocrat he could do what he wanted and tell anybody what he wanted h to tell. he was a genius and it sounds like it contradicts what you just said. i wouldn't be able to work with the press if he was president. and as a private citizen, as an industrialist, he maintained a very large public relations in the ford motor company. he was a genius at publicity. everybody that was interested in what henry ford was doing. he was an enemy of wall street and bankers which most were at the time.. he knew how to wo

henry, you watch these departments closely. how good an omen is this? well, i think with iran, as well as with north korea, sometimes it is one step back. sometimes two steps back. i think this allowance of the monitoring cameras, the un inspection camera is to have new memory cards placed on them, that is a good step and that a show that tehran is trying to show willing a little bit in terms of being back under international inspection. but we should also remember that this was partly to escape the censure that was going to be coming from the international atomic energy association, where they were going to actually criticise iran from what seemed to be obstruction in letting inspectors actually monitor and verify what was going on so there was a little bit of self interest in that and equally, some of the appointments that iran has been making to its new foreign ministry under the new president, a lot of them are hardliners who opposed the nuclear accord from five years ago. and don't necessarily look like they're going to be for resuming it. but let'

henry ford was there, on a bicycle, 20 feet behind, chasing them. in the 1880s people started to understand you could take a steam engine or a naphtha engine and apply it to an automobile. electricity was also used to do that, electric cars existed before gasoline engines. a gentleman from grand rapids named sintz developed a gasoline-powered engine and took it to the columbia exposition in chicago in 1893. a lot of guys from detroit, lansing, chicago, milwaukee, saw this and all of a sudden the gasoline engine became the most popular way of powering cars. probably the biggest problem these early vehicles ran into was the lack of decent roads. the bicycle folk, people who enjoyed riding bicycles, had started a movement called the good roads movement to make the roads better. so the bicyclists kind of got some of the roads paved. but once you got out of the city center, which here in downtown detroit would have been just a mile or two outside of the real core of the city, you were back on country roads and in detroit, it's mostly clay. if it rains, y

i have to go to henry on this one. - chain in and keep the jobs. i have to go to henry on this one. we i chain in and keep the jobs. i have l to go to henry on this one. we left the european union, wants things —— weren't things supposed to be smooth? and we wouldn't have any empty shelves? taste smooth? and we wouldn't have any empty shelves?— smooth? and we wouldn't have any empty shelves? we were supposed to net our empty shelves? we were supposed to get our independent _ empty shelves? we were supposed to get our independent back, _ empty shelves? we were supposed to get our independent back, according i get our independent back, according to some. we were under the yoke of the european union's slavery. remember those terms? this was about taking back control. let me draw you and attention —— attention to a quote. it's ironic. they talked about taking back control, but they are letting products into britain without any control at all. that's fine with us. there's this asymmetric relationship, britain allowing all these in. because of what did be called necessary contro

reporter: ariel henry, haiti's new prime minister former minister of social affairs and labor former newer pathologist and professor, w a suspect in the assassination of president jovenel moise. on tuesday, haiti's top prosecutor said he is seeking charges against henry over boise's killing. >> the actions to create confusion and prevent justice will not be allowed to happen. the real culprits, the masterminds, those responsible for the assassination of president jovenel moise will be brought to justice and punished for their as. reporter: moise was shot to death when assassins stormed his residential compound. dozens have been arrested in the wake of the raid, including 18 former colombian soldiers and two haitian americans. but several key suspects remain at large, including a former senator, and a fugitive former employee of the justice ministry's anticorruption unit, whom henry has defended. prosecutors say the prime minister spoke with that suspect twice on the right of moise's assassination. they asked henry to report for questioning, and asked immigration services not to let h

now, back to henry ford, he said, one of the greatest businessman's ever walked. the earth said hunter, and below is a snapshot from the actual front page of the new york tribune newspaper on december, 4th, 1921. he said ford would replace gold with energy currency and stop wars follow up on the tweet. ambrey ford offers up the idea that all wars would be prevented with a currency based on energy usage. quote, the essential evil of gold and its relation to war is the fact that it can be controlled. he said this in 1921, break the control and you stop the war. yeah, that's right. for the raisins. so we've been talking about. it's not back by violence. it's backed by the monetization piece. actually, when it comes to bitcoin and with energy, it is decentralized. buckminster. father said that planet earth gets about a 1000 times more energy every day that uses, right. there's a lot of energy around questions. how to harness that. what do you do with it? and with big coin you're converting electricity into the hardest one ever known, then the history of the world. and

and henry ford's observation that's absolutely true. and essentially, because it is a realization of that dream. yeah. and it's important to remember, you know, i was really, it's kind of off topic of the energy story. but the fact is that this is so unique in history and that you've had oil or you've had gold, or you had central banks. and those were some countries were uniquely endowed with that. and some countries like with the central bank era, are uniquely endowed with huge amount of force and violence that they can inflict on everybody else to use their currency. but all of them were either centralized in some way. we see that with saudi arabia and the usaa relationship at the moment, but bitcoin is totally decentralized and totally distributed to anybody. because of the way it uses energy. it can capture that stranded energy and like places that were just left off the financial and banking in economic grid for centuries, decades, you know that they can be put back on that they don't need to now bag, washington d. c, for some hand

but everybody from buckminster fuller to henry ford to frederick hyatt. all pointed out that that would be the best sort of currency to have. now we cut to that money printer go broke and look what they have caused and look how they are able to control gold. and you could see that in this m to money goes for, here's the charts for bitcoin stock box and gold adjusted for money supply expansion. and you say money supply that the huge surge last year than this is a bit coin. and this is the s and p 500 and there is gold has been declining at lock stop as m 2 is going up. now a lot of people say that's because of manipulation that, that obviously this is what central banks look at the gold price. alan greenspan had admitted that in f m. c minutes that were released. you know, everybody knows that they look at the price, the goal to see if people are going to keep on buying into that scheme and accept the money printer go better. and, and this is that adjusted the growth trajectory on the same scale. this is bitcoin, this is the s a p 500 and the gold versus t

the newspaper, the general talk about that and henry got all those things together and then wrote to dad and that's how it started was to get this, get these people and he wrote it. he was invited toblack hills to carve the memorial so the white man would know . >> they say once their people left crazy horse and was born along the creek, when you lose that, he was born. whenever he was going to be, they set up away from him, away from this man can and as the mother was giving birth to dad was outside. that's where the baby was born and they got the baby up to. [inaudible] grandfather, thank you very much said the sunday i say thank you to you very much. >> crazy horse with a very mysterious individual. it kept to himself a lot. he put the people before himself. he cared much more about his surroundings and the group that he was to takecare of more than his own comfort . >> take us to today, what's going on today you came to work and what are you working on? >> i live here so i'm always at work and, but as far as the mountain is concerned right now drilling some cold at angles up on t

henry retaliated by firing him, because he has the authority to do so. so here we are playing tete—a—tete. that is an interesting point. he does have that authority, does he? because it would appear that the chief prosecutor is ignoring the dismissal, effectively? well, yeah. it is going to be interesting but i don't think that chief prosecutor has that much power in the scheme of things. in fact, early on, there were a lot of issues to get a prosecutor on the case, most people were afraid to take on this case and bedford claude accepted it, and i think he has far extended his authority, in this because i think if you had evidence that the prime minister was involved somehow i think it behoves you to present the facts to the media, to the public and that the facts speak for themselves. i mean, the drama almost defies belief in terms of the accusations and the counter accusations. is it a drama, though, that is gripping a nation or, frankly, are most peoplejust doing their damnedest to survive and get on at the moment? it is gripping the nation becaus

charles brady king, not henry ford, charles brady king designed this car. he designed the engine that went inside of it. oliver who helped him with the engine drove him down detroit. he was about 25 feet behind chasing him. people started to understand that you could take a steam engine and apply it to an automobile. eventually electricity was used too that. electricity cars existed before gasoline engine. a gentleman developed a gasoline powered engine and took it to the columbian exhibition in 1893 in chicago. he showed it off to everybody. a lot of guys from detroit, from lansing, chicago, milwaukee, all of these people saw this engine and the gasoline engine became the most popular way of powering cars. probably the biggest problem that these early vehicles ran into was the lack of decent roads. the bicycle folk, people who enjoyed riding bicycles started a movement to make the roads better. they were constantly getting stuck many the mud. charles brady king went on and starpted the king automobile company. the king car company and put out a number of c

eventually it ariel henry was appointed as the prime minister. and there's still the mystery over how the president was killed and who ordered his assassination. and what we heard 3—4 days ago was the chief prosecutor accusing the chief prosecutor accusing the current prime minister of being involved in the inset —— assassination. he said there were reckless phone calls between ariel henry and one of the key suspects of ordering the key suspects of ordering the killing just hours after the killing just hours after the assassination. and that's where we came to today, with the chief prosecutor banning the chief prosecutor banning the prime ministerfrom leaving the prime ministerfrom leaving the country and taking charge of the situation. that's the chart like situation we have. now we have this world where the prime minister of announcing the sacking of that chief prosecutor, but it's still not clear whether he has the power to dismiss him in this way. have you got any further details on that? i don't think he has the power, and i don't thin

there's been a lot of books written about henry clay. i've certainly not read anywhere near all of them but i've read a number of them. >> host: java recommended books your colleagues? >> i do occasionally. this harlem book we were just discussing, i am recommending to all of the members of my conference were particularly interested in the law and supreme court which is a significant number of ourbe members. >> any fiction in your reading? >> iin confess, i really read fictionn. the last book i read, interestingly enough was also about polio it was a novel it wass called nemesis. it was like a historical novel , the characters were made up but facts were similar. it is about the polio epidemic of 1944 which simile enough was the last was the year i came down with it. >> host: yosenator mcconnell couple asked question your 2020 opponents, amy mcgrath has a new book coming out. is that when they will catch your attention at all? >> gosh honestly i don't usually read current books. there are a lot of them. i might take a look at it. it migh

. >> host: what about books on another famous cayenne, henry clay? kentuckian, henry clay? >> guest: i read them. his last great compromise in his quest to hold the union together with all the strains and stresses we had related to slave ry. there have been a lot of books written about henry clay. i've certainly not read anywhere near all of them, but i've read a number of them. >> host: do you ever recommend books to your colleagues? >> guest: i do occasionally. this harlan book that we were just discussing, i'm recommending tous all the membes of my conference who are particularly interestedng in the law and supreme court, which is a significant number of our members. >> host: any fiction in this? in your reading, any fiction in your reading? >> guest: i confess, i rarely readss fiction. the last book i read, interestingly enough,gl was also about polio that was a novel. it was called "nemesis." and it was like a historical novel. the characters were made up, but the facts were similar. and it was about the polio epidemic of 1944 which, interestingly enough, happened to b

sir henry clinton, third in command at the time, advised general gauge send forces to the backside and we will pin the american rebels on top of the hill. we didn't do that, they marched up the hill and marched into a disaster and there were two instances in the campaign for new york in 76 when i think of the british had acted resolutely first in brooklyn when they had half of washington's army trapped and again in september of 76 when washington really foolishly kept his army on manhattan and didn't get off the british could have annihilated the entire continental army and any of those victories would have won the war for the british. another chance in 1777, the plan that london devised was for an hour to come from canada while general howell to rendezvous with the coin and catch washington's army and instead of doing that, left bitcoin to his own devices and how went off after philadelphia and missed, i think, really, the last major chance the british had to win the war. but that is not to say britain's defeat after that was guaranteed. as i said, earlier, it is a long desperate war.

so i hope my appraisal will convince people to take another look at sir henry clinton. >> i didn't know anything about that but of his abilities i just realized with the chronology the questions are out of order. >> after saratoga adopted from the southern strategy what were they looking to gain? >> after saratoga many people in england wanted to drop out of the war it had gone on for three>> years. they had achieved virtually nothing. and now have lost an entire army at saratoga. so when the news came in saratoga triggered a lengthy debate in the war of ministry to the war 1770 and the debate for one thing whether to remain in the war and if the decision was made to remain in the war what kind of strategy with a pursue? at this point to destroy the continental army and to win control of several northern provinces. they really had it succeeded on either score so at the end of the debate the notion of largely because the king insisted the war continue to let me go back to my powerpoint the person that led the fight to remain in the war was lord george jermaine he was the secretary of sta

so, i hope that my appraisal will convince some people to take another look at sir henry clinton. i did know the know anything about him until reading this and i did leave enlightened in terms of the scope and depth of his ability. we're going to stay with him for a little bit and realized actually with the chronology, our next questions are out of order. and carrie you take mine and i'll take yours, after british's saratoga, adopted the so-called southern strategy. what was it and what was britain trying for in the war 1778 and onward? >> sure, after saratoga, the british-- in fact, many people in england after saratoga wanted to drop out of the war. it had gone on three years and achieved nothing and lost an entire army at saratoga. so when the news came in at saratoga triggered a lengthy debate in lord north's, in 1778, a debate over one thing whether to remain in the war and in the decision was to remain in the war, whether the-- what kind of strategy would they pursue. down to this point the strategy then to try to destroy washington's continental army and also win control of

more tough questions from lawmakers about the united states withdrawal from afghanistan. >> skylar henry on the grilling. >> the secretary of state called the evacuation of united states forces out of afghanistan heroic. >> in the end we completed one the esggr wit s liaiinft people evacuated to safety. >> lawmaker has hard questions about how the biden administration executed the withdrawal includingleaving americans and afghanistan allies behind. >> you evacuated 6,040 americans and say only a couple hundred remain. your own department told this committee in july that there were 10 to 15,000 americans in afghanistan. there's a huge difference between 6,000 and 15,000. what happened to these other americans? >> the secretary said that's federal government did everything that it could to get all americans out ahead of the withdraw deadline. >> our team worked 24-7 to reach out to americans who could still be in country making 55,000 phone calls, sending 33,000 e-mails by august 31th and they are still at it. >> the secretary faced the toughest questions from republicans but frustrations

okay, henry let, we'll leave that. but when you get to talk to you tonight, that was henry bolton, former leader of the u. k. independence party. thanks for coming up. you're welcome . i mean, wal, mr of himself is flatly denied a claim in the u. s. media that britain may have been indirectly responsible for letting a suicide bomber into couple airport last thursday. the blasted happen one of his entrances, whereas the guns were waiting in line to be processed to fly at at least 170 people were killed. append can document lead to political magazine to suggest american forces kept the airports main gate open despite knowing it was a prime target for terrorists in order to let british personnel evacuate u. k. foreign factory says that that allegation is just not true. while another government minister has a keys, the us have indulging in a blame game. there is an underlying current of blame which is unhelpful. it's a distraction from the main efforts of what is happening on the ground. if the scale of this attack was kno

but here is sir henry clinton. he became the commander of the british army and learned of his appointment in may of 1778. he was the third british commander during the war. gage had been there for many years before the revolution and was recalled after the disasters along concord road and bunker hill and general william howe succeeded and when he was commander in 76 and 77 and resigned after saratoga so then he was named the commander he was from an aristocratic family. his father was a career naval officer who became the royal governor of new york and spent some of his formative years and new york city. he fought in two wars before the revolutionary war and earned a reputation as a brave, courageous, risk-taking soldier who was seriously wounded in an engagement in germany in the seven year war in the early 1760s. he was an intellectually curious individual. he read especially deeply on military history and strategy and in the year before the war broke out out of his own pocket he paid to make the trip deep into e

alright are henry lee reporting live for us this afternoon, henry. thank you. oakland is adding a police academy to boost the police department staffing. the city council voted 6 to 2 to approve the extra academy last night after hours of public comments and debate. the voters, a reversal from a decision made about three months ago when the council rejected the idea of an extra academy now at the time they wanted to invest the estimated $3 million. into more community based violence prevention programs will now the money will go toward the training of new officers. we get an opportunity here an opportunity to actually hire people who care about oakland, but it calls for hiring locally hiring women and hiring people of color and looking at a feasibility study around providing childcare services. well, let me chef has requested to new academies as a way to rein in police overtime costs, which exceeded $35 million last year. the number of police officers in the department is now below 700 for the first time. in seven years are developing news that sonoma county no

but henry ford did not want to be a farmer. he was more interested in machinery and one of his heroes was thomas edison. so, he eventually got to detroit and started working for the edison illuminating company. in his spare time, he tinkered around with wanting to build his own motor and build his own car. personal transportation of the time when henry ford got started included the horse and buggy. we also had streetcars at that time that operated. there were things called interurbans which connected little city neighborhoods instead of just the large railways. it was not very well developed. bicycles, that was another form of transportation that gave people mobility. a number of other entrepreneurs in this area were building bicycles to give people mobility. typically in that time you did not go more than 50 miles from your home, maybe become in your lifetime. there was a big need, people wanted to move around. they just didn't have that ability until the car came out. henry ford's desire to build the model t starts with the i

each of those people on that list were investors, and henry kissinger was an investor, george schultz, sat on the board. i mean mattis was on the board. a lot of really wealthy people, fully believed and fully committed to what, you know, elizabeth holmes saying. so they're going to come and say they believed what she said, and they invested money, and then the federal prosecutors are going to show that what she was saying to them wasn't true and at the time that she said it, she knew it wasn't true, and there's the crime. and if they believe that evidence, she's going to get convicted. >> paula, thank you for your time. we're probably going to check back with you as the trial progresses. >> i hope so. thank you so much. >> you too, paula. our reporting continues at nbcbayarea.com. one of the things you can find thayer, look at the historic $135 million estate in woodside that we just mentioned, paula did, that elizabeth holmes calling home right now during this trial. find a link to the article also by clicking elizabeth holmes trial right there at the top of our home page. >>> remem

if you live in kentucky everybody's heard of henry clay . and in fact i did my senior thesis in college on the compromise of 1850 which is clay's last great compromise and his quest to hold the union together with all the strains and stresses we had related to slavery. and there's been a lot of books written about henry clay and certainly i've not read anywhere near all of them. >> do you ever recommend books your colleagues? >> i do occasionally. this harley but we were just discussing recommending to all the members of my congress who were particularly interested in the law and in the supreme court which is a significant number of our members. >> any fiction in this case western mark in your reading, any fiction in your reading ? >> i confess i rarely read fiction. the last book i read interestingly enough was also about polio. it was a novel called nemesis and itwas like a historical novel .the characters were made up but the facts were similar and it was about the polio epidemic of 1944 which interestingly enough was the same year i came

i hope my appraisal will convince people to take another look at sir henry clinton. >> i didn't know anything about it until reading it. i did leave enlightened in terms of his ability. we are going to stay with him a little bit and the chronology, our next questions are out of order. after britain's catastrophe in 1777 adopted a new strategy, solvent strategy, what was it and what was their attempt to gain in the war? >> after saratoga -- many people in england wanted to drop out of the war. it had gone on for three years, they have achieved virtually nothing and now have lost an entire army at saratoga so when the news came in that saratoga triggered a lengthy debate went on through the winter of 1778 and it was a debate whether to remain in the war ended the decision was made to remain in the war what kind of strategy what they pursue? the strategy had been to try to destroy washington's continental army and control northern provinces they hadn't succeeded on either score. at the end of the debate, the notion of remaining in the war largely because king insisted the war continued.

also with us on the phone is battalion chief henry herrera with cal fire. melissa, let's start with you. tell me where are you and the conditions you're experiencing right now. >> reporter: well, we are fairly close to south lake tahoe airport, and the fire is just very close to that. very close to that area, as can you see this is highway 50, and basically, what we've been seeing all day long is firefighters and police officers patrolling the area for any potential looters. but this south lake tahoe is a ghost town right now. and it is an incredibly eerie feeling, because we're just days away from labor day. this area is supposed to be pulsating with families, weddings, what have you, everyone is gone, everyone but firefighters who have been putting in so many hours, so much labor, physical work, trying to contain this fire. that is kind of where we were at. i can't tell you how eerie it was to be driving down south lake tahoe, and you just feel like the city is yours. you're the only person there. but it's covered in this smoke. it's covered in this ash t

clay frick, though by wonderful coincidence the day he was deported was the day henry clay frick died of national rural as natural causes and he left the country before i did. the socialist party never came close to winning the presidential race but had alleged oral success at local and conventional levels, 5 socialists into new york state assembly, they were suspended and expelled and rented special elections and were reelected but denied their seats. the communist party of the united states was founded in 1919 after the russian revolution as socialist party of america. unlike debs's socialists it supported dictatorship of the proletariat which is to say dictatorship of self-appointed fiduciaries for the proletariat. it was deeply involved in the american labor movement and a variety of front organizations influenced many prominent people. membership grew to 55 thousands according to seek the usa but it was from the first largely funded by and took orders from the soviet union. after world war ii broke out in september of 1939 the communist party newspaper the daily worker began a lo

in the house, congressman henry cuellar and democrats in congress and tony gonzalez a republican. it's literallyre a bipartisan ad bicameral piece ofit legislatio. perhapsf it's because the four f us live in represent border states, we spent time listening and learning from the men and women who safeguard our border and those who care for migrants and thoseti who live in this border communities that are disproportionately impacted. there are a lot of people who talk about what's happening at the border who have never even been there. they and actually characterize border communities as unsafe and lawless. they villainize the border patrol and other law enforcement agencies for actually enforcing the laws that congress has passed. and they proposed blanket solutions to the complexom challenges that exist which would do far more harm than good. the fact is the border is a beautiful, safe and vibrant

i also think this could've used the input of a real stand—up comedian, even though henry's meant to be losing his touch, his stand—up scenes feel unfunny and unrealistic. still, realism is not the goal with this film, and there are high points — for one thing, i enjoyed the performance from simon helberg, after his similar turn as an accomplice in florence fosterjenkins. and there's a duet at the end of the film which is very powerful. this moment delivers a revelatory explanation for a lot of the madness that's preceded it, but it feels like too little too late. a lavish folly, annette is in cinemas now. next, to marvel�*s first asian superhero — shang chi and the legend of the ten rings. shang chi is the son of a master criminal father and a martial artist mother, but he's keeping a low profile, working as a valet in san francisco. going by the name of shawn, he enjoys drinks and karaoke with his best buddy, katy, played by awkwafina. you have the wrong guy! does he look like he can fight? come on, bro! but a spectacular scrap on a bus reveals him to be seriously skilled in t

here is lake henry ford. anthony luwann could you i did involved in the google suit, for those of you that know that. once you make a car better than the driver, it's almost irresponsible to have them there. coil voight who founded cruise automation part of general motors. part of what is driving him is the fact that some 33 million -- 33,000 americans are killed by highway accidents every year. 90% of the time by human error. they want to eliminate the driver because we are bad drivers. it's not true. this is the 94% fallacy. they all read this document which says 94% of accidents are caused -- no, sorry. the critical reason for crashes investigated in the national motor vehicle crash causation survey. it doesn't say who causes the crashes. you have to read the footnotes. nobody reads the footnotes. although the critical reason is an important part of the description of events leading up to the crash, it is not intended to be interpreted as the cause of the crash, nor the assignment of fault to the driver, v
