A portion of our Young Turks Main Show from May 14, 2014. For more go to http://www.tytmembership.comCenk hosting today.  After Conservative CNBC anchor went off on how he can’t recognize the Republican Party anymore, he went on his own show later in the day to make sure everyone understands that he wasn’t praising Democrats.  John McCain spoke out about the Boko Haram kidnappings in Nigeria and came to the conclusion that we need to send some troops to rescue the girls without permission from the country; from “some guy named Goodluck Jonathan.”  Obama’s top economic advisor is bashing another economist’s book that details how rabid capitalism drives our problems with inequality.  Dumbest Controversy of the Week being built up by Conservatives.  Outrage over Ed Schultz’ tweet that said, in reality, gays were the ones persecuted and murdered by Nazi Germany.  There is also outrage over Democratic Congressman Rob Garcia supposedly picking his ear and eating the earwax while at a hearing. Ana and John hosting 2nd hour.  Florida police officers assaulted a 13 year old kid after he was kicked off of his school bus for defying the driver and putting his window down.  Child labor still happens in America and it occurs mostly on tobacco farms.  Our child labor laws allow much younger kids, as young as 7, to work in the farming industry.  Human Rights Watch wants to change this law.
