A new plan to revamp them expected to be announced this week by president ial candidate Hillary Clinton. Cnbc chief washington correspondent john harwood is in d. C. Now with details. Reporter mandy, Hillary Clintons beginning to lay out all of the components of her Economic Program to try to relink middle class incomes with the profits of Corporate America. Last week she talked about a plan to link employee tax policy or employer tax policy toward Profit Sharing with employers. Now shes trying to encourage longterm investment. I just want to go back to the history of Capital Gains rates to illustrate what shes the system that shes trying to tweak. Back in 1986 when Ronald Reagan was president , we had a tax reform plan. The Capital Gains and top marginal income tax rates were the same 28 . Then when you move to the bill clinton balanced budget deal in 1997 you had the top income tax rate up to 39. 6 .

I was publisher of the wall street journal. I spent quite some time overseeing the Digital Businesses of the journal. I consider myself, in fact, maybe the oldest possible digital native. I oversaw businesses that were based on what we then called electronic publishing even before the internet in the 1990s, so i lived in a time before the internet, before Technology Policy was aimed at encouraging innovation back in the 80s and 9s 90s and before government was heavily involved in regulating communications telephones, other technologies.

Host well, youve written that washington is a disaster for innovation disaster area for innovation. Why do you write that
Market working for everybody again. Here is what i mean by that. I think the legitimate concerns the people have. People who are undocumented are doing jobs that used to be done by people who are american citizens. I deplore that. Here is why it happens. It happens because if you are an undocumented immigrant with no legal rights and you are here among the 11 or 12 million who are here, employers can exploit you and pay you less than any minimum. They do not have to provide good working conditions, and they displace jobs. One of the positive results of comprehensive Immigration Reform is to remove that incentive. There would be no incentive because the rules would apply to everybody. I do not believe we are going to deport 11 or 12 Million People who live here. If someone says they want to do that, i think they are saying something that is not going to happen. Maybe they can get people to not and agree and cheer. It is never going to happen. I believe we have to do a better job securin
