companies like anthem, united health, cigna, are pulling out. aetna. because they don t have the choice, and because of the government mandate. i think what we want to do is allow competition and choice to exist so they can offer more options for the american people. will those companies make more money under the easy were s plan or less? i don t know the answer to that. that s not been the focus of what we are doing now. at the end of the day they are pulling out of market after market leaving americ peoe with fewer and fewer choices. right now it s not a question from the last i checked i think many of them are doing well. but it s the american people and its patients losing under the current system. i think there is a way you can do a little of both. hunter. yes. we ve seen the white house and secretary price push back on calling this health care bill trump care. does anything need to change for the president to be comfortable putting his name on the bill? well, i don t
sometimes it goes down. china keeps their currency artificially low which makes their products cheaper hence americans are forced to buy chinese products. they manipulate their currency. going back to 1994 which was the last time anybody here in the u.s. administrations labeled china a current see manipulator, there was a lot of tension. so george bush didn t label it a currency manipulator, nor has president obama p. bill: they own a lot of your stuff. liz clay money, anchor of after the bell. martha: the candidates battled last night and sort of stalked each other across the stage at times. did the harsh tone backfire with
