Its a magnificent experience. You have to see the country, but the people we get to see day in and out are wonderful people and we learn about their stories and it was very touching, so if you get a chance to run for president , do it, its a great thing. The third time is the charm. [cheers and applause] i made a couple of good decisions in my life, one is who i married and who was my running mate. Thank you. [applause] if youre going to take a shot at me, you wouldnt be a bad president yourself. So we have an interesting yeah. [applause] but we have some questions about a book that you have written this year, paul. And i would note that i read it and i hope some of you have as well, so your questions can reflect that, so i know paul pretty well. He actually wrote it. But paul wrote this book, i can tell because its his voice, it is written like he speaks and that makes it even more touching and personal, but i want to begin by just asking paul the american idea, the subtitle or main t
Existing distribution of power, wealth and property, conserve tim has been associated with societies where the few dominate the many, and i just think, especially the first part of that, that the conservativism, that the argument gets used to justify Big Government in many ways, that this idea of a resistance to change which, again, i think thats a good instinct. Its in the declaration of independence. Dont change unless you absolutely have to bass it will bring bat beside things but that argument, resistance to change, is corporateist protectionity.

Now that president obama has won reelection, the debate in washington has shifted from whether we should raise taxes to how and by how much. This makes sense. With a deficit over a trillion dollars, we will need a combination of increased tax revenues and spending cuts. The president and his allies including robert rubin have made the case that eliminating deductions simply will not get you enough money. You will actually have to raise tax rates. Thats probably true as well. But lets not give up entirely on the issue of deductions and all those other hidden subsidies that the simpsonbowles report accurately called backdoor spending hidden in the tax code. In order to sound like theyre not spending money, congress often tends to grant special exemptions to paying taxes. In his excellent book red ink David Russell points out if you get a 1,000 exemption, its exactly the same as being paid a thousand dollars by the government.
