if you can t afford your medication, astrazeneca may be able to help. what s the best way to get v8 or a fancy juice store?s? ready, go! hi, juice universe? one large rutabaga, with eggplant. done! that s not fair. glad i had a v8. the original way to fuel your day. we have a once in a generation opportunity to do something really big. president trump has made tax reform a priority and we have a republican congress that wants to get it double. gary cohn there, one of
are figuring out is that you can t do both. i think bill kristol is right. his problem is he has a republican house and senate and they can t put together a bill can get a majority of majority. i love when you re in agreement. go on. and the only way he will get it double, democrats have said that if he comes to the table and says here how we can improve obamacare, democrats are all in. if his solution to repeal it or to take away health care from the poor to get democrats to the table, he will get blamed for it. there s old colin powell rule. if you break it, you own it. if he breaks it, he will own it and it won t glucose at the ballot box. and had it was said that the white house and congressional leaders are really close tow some kind of new piece of legislation. he predicted the house will pass it within the next three weeks. does that sound realistic? i m doubtful but it s possible you might squeeze something through the house. i don t think it has the votes
are. john, do you worry that the media and that negativity and that pessimism can actually talkdown people s feeling good and hurt the economy in the process? no. because i don t think anybody listens to them anymore. they don t. i mean, used to be when you saw something in new york times or saw something in your local newspaper you believed it. now i don t think people believe it. and i think for very good reason. at best they re skeptical. and i think that s good. it s also bad because it s led to a lot of fake news being out there, but that also adds to the fact that no one believes the media anymore. look at what they said about trump. what we re doing in america is not working. it is not worked since the late 90s. saw debt double under president bush, saw it double under president obama. food stamps, which goes one-on-one with poverty, has almost tripled since 2000. the middle class has been destroyed. i don t know if president-elect trump is going to be a great president.
cool pronoun for cool guy. that was great. the seattle-based ceo announced the minimum salary will be raised to $70,000. that s right. my new boss, the founder of gravity payments lowered his paycheck from $1 million to $70,000 to make the increases possible. wow. he made the announcement to his employees on monday. 70 people will see their paychecks increase and 30 will see it double. it will double. he is a good boss. it is amazing. look, that s how you incenti vies people. no one will want to leave this job now. this is a baseline salary for like your basic this is not even someone who has claimed the ladder. take notes. imagine if you work hard i am ready to sign up and work
that we can elaborate on that. it is to put your loved one, your son, your brother as would be in mr. garn he s position who committed some minor offense. very, very minor offense. and winds up dead from a chokehold. how would you feel about that? and then there would be no even arrest or prosecution at all that would just be okay. and i think that s what got communities upset. but we also, you brought it up. talked about with it paul, too. the tactics of policing. we can do so much better. if we look the a all these cases. we see the tactics from cleveland with the 12-year-old boy to dayton with the young man shot in the walmart. just rushing in and it is too fast. there needs to be a little more circumstance up specs. a little more negotiation and maneuvering. a lot more work to do. we re going to get it double. we must. thank you both for your time.
