Banksters are lifting a plunder to a new, higher level, robots are taking over jobs, planet is going to be cooked thanks to crooked politicians and insatible corporations, sex is pricier than ever… what can people do? Keep calm and chill out?

In episode of Redacted Tonight, host Lee Camp Lee Camp opens with an impending crisis robots are causing. As jobs are rapidly becoming automated, what will it mean the society of workers made of flesh and blood and not controlled by a processor? With this imminent job loss, what on earth can we do as a society to take on skyrocketing unemployment? Then Lee turns to Europe, where there’s some good news. Theresa May’s conservative party may be collapsing in Great Britain, and in Germany, citizens are getting 85 percent of their electricity from renewables like wind and solar power, a feat our nation has yet to accomplish. Then Lee covers the revived zombie of the War on Drugs. marijuana sales are enjoying a boost thanks to legalization in several states. Not only are annual legal sales near $4.5 billion, Americans are apparently purchasing marijuana more than other modes of entertainment, such as $15 movie tickets and hard liquor.

In the second half of the show, correspondent Natalie McGill joins Lee at the desk to discuss the positive change to our environment and our health that electric cars can bring, but the hairbrained obstacles state governments are putting up for them.

Finally, correspondent John F O’Donnell reports on how cities’ corporate spaces are being reclaimed by activist groups, by visiting The Uptown Arthouse in Washington, DC.
