Moment today when the president came out of the briefing room that was a transparently desperate attempt to sort of wrench attention back from this day and capitol hill which i don t think worked. now the house tonight just in a few minutes is going to pass this bill to reopen the government. the white house has issued a veto threat. now this sort of standoff begins between pelosi and trump. where do you see it going? i think it s interesting that donald trump had his temper tantrum. mitch mcconnell declared that the senate has no role so i guess they can go home. yeah. he took himself out of it. so much of the great body in the world, what a force that has become. and so the american people see a picture. a temper tantrum, a guy who s checked out, and a woman full with energy trying to reopen the government, trying to fix medicaid, trying to fix medicare, trying to fix education. there is a difference now in intensity and interest in governance and in energy.
you hear it all the time in d.c., scare tactics over potential cuts in social security berths, but did you know that cuts in social security checks are already happening? it s a part of a bipartisan plan to fix medicare payments to doctors during the obama administration. well, my family just found this out the hard way, steve, this just got personal. my folks called me up, they re my lovely folks, and said, look, we ve got $500 a month less in our social security checks. and that s not supposed to be cut into. apparently in order to do the doc fix, the government decided it s okay to dock social security checks, it s not right. it isn t right. the contract for social security, it s not a welfare program, you re paying into it all your working life to get certain benefits promised when you retire, to cheat people like that, like a company saying we owe you a certain amount for your annuity, your income is too high and so we re
Thing that has to be done. it is so easy to get done. and it is hold on. it is a political problem, and here s the really good news, and here is a difficult time in the world, the good news is that the problems in the united states are not nearly what the rest of the world faces in their horrible problems. we can do this. we can fix social security and fix medicare, but it is going to take some political will and the good news, charles, we have time. and here is the bad news, we are walking past this thing, and whistling past the graveyard, adam. gary, i want to go the you, because listen, nobody is saying that we are falling off of the cliff tomorrow, but the idea to keep ignoring it and one day flip a switch and fix it is absurd. well, look at the ticking clock on the daily basis, my frie friend. look, i read last week that the reason why the ten-year is down the 2.5% is that china is buying the living daylights out of it. this is about national security if we keep owing al
Factor in. do you have a large duct snibl how much do you have to pay before the insurance starts picking up the cost? many consumers are getting increasingly frustrated. i now feel like i m having to pay for the people who didn t have coverage before. basically what i will have to do next year is take a $3,000 a year pay cut to have the exact same coverage that i ve had this year for my family. the law allows insurance companies to charge young people more compared to older people, forcing younger and healthier americans to subsidize the overall system. simply not in our best interest to sign up for something that takes an unfair share from us to give it to someone that has more. another source of cost confusion, cuts that will decrease medicare spending by an estimated $716 billion between 2013 and 2022. the funds have been used to offset the cost of the president s health care reforms, meaning they are not really savings in medicare. i asked president obama about that ba
