Kevin Kamps, Beyond Nuclear joins Thom Hartmann. Ohio is about to get more nuclear power plants. Apparently, Speaker of the House John Boehner hasn't learned anything from the Fukushima nuclear disaster in Japan earlier this year. He also hasn't learned anything from his own Party's outrage over the manufactured "Solyndra scandal." You know - the so-called scandal in which Boehner said, "For the federal government to be out there picking one company over another, one type of energy source over another, I think is wrong." Only a few weeks after saying that - Boehner is now picking one company over another, and one energy source over another. He's pushing for a $2 billion loan guarantee from the Department of Energy for a new nuclear plant in Ohio. Of course - the company seeking the loan is USEC incorporated - which has just so happened to give $10000 in campaign contributions to Boehner since last year. I guess the price is right. Maybe that's why Boehner always appears to be "glowing."

Derrick Crowe, Brave New Foundation joins Thom Hartmann. Meet the top one-one hundredth of one percent - America's war profiteers who are making enormous bucks hurtling our nation into one war after another. The Brave New Foundation has just launched a new campaign to expose the one-one hundredth of one percenters in American.

Anthony Holm, Republican Strategist joins Thom Hartmann. A citywide strike is scheduled for Wednesday, November 2nd - when patriots plan to march to the Port of Oakland - the nation's fifth busiest port - and shut it down. Occupy Oakland is encouraging other occupations around the country to promote similar actions in their respective cities. So with a nationwide strike looking like it's the next step in the Occupy Wall Street movement - isn't is becoming harder and harder for our lawmakers - in particular Republican lawmakers - to ignore average American patriots who make up the 99% movement and their issues of income inequality and the theft of America by banksters?

The bankster 1% in Chicago had a little message they wanted to get out to the 99% movement camped out in the streets below. So someone at the Chicago Board of Trade poured leaflets out of the window - to rain down on the demonstrators below. The leaflets read "We are Wall Street, it is our jobs to make money...Go ahead and continue to take us down, but you're only going to hurt yourselves. What's going to happen when we can't find jobs on the Street anymore? Guess what: We're going to take yours." As we all know today - that's not a threat...it's a promise - Wall Street has never had a problem taking what's not theirs. Whether it was the trillions they took from the economy when they ran their housing bubble scheme - or the trillions more they took from the taxpayers when they demanded a bailout - Wall Street just churns other people's money and skims their vig off the top. And they've been doing it in a pretty outrageous way - what once was considered both an immoral and even illegal way - for the 30 years since Reagan stopped enforcing the Sherman Anti-Trust act, leading to an explosion on Wall Street of what was then called M&A or Mergers and Acquisitions business.
