fall. instead the military used this wave of popular discontent to step in and completely tried to crush the muslim brotherhood, to call them a terrorist movement and to carry out a very large campaign not only against them, this campaign has expanded to the young revolutionaries who led 2011. we are seeing are a solution to the military here. jenna: it is not just about the aid we are giving this year, but money over the last several decades. if the military does take control in an election, what do you think we would be investing in? what kind of a government? what we want for egypt is for it to be a reliable security ally for the united states and a good peace partner for israel. they can only do those things if it is reasonably stable. it will only be reasonably stable if the government is able to meet the needs of the people. that means economic prosperity,
comments in iran. let s take a listen. the agreement marks the first time in a decade that iran has agreed to specific actions that halt progress on its nuclear program and roll back key aspects of the program. stopping the advance of the program and introducing unprecedented transparency into iran s nuclear activities. while we negotiate a long-term comprehensive solution. so again, as i said yesterday, it doesn t matterrer what they say. it matters what they do. jenna: rick, your thoughts? boy, i actually agree with him. it doesn t matter what iran says, it s what they do. that s why it is so troubling to see senator kaine and these other congressional leaders back away from sanctions. what we need to be able to do is keep the pressure on up until the iranians change their behavior. agreeing to go to a meeting or agreeing to something on a piece of paper wrought change without
are being canceled because businesses won t be able to afford the insurance under obamacare. so you re likely to see a new wave of cancellations later this year. later in the year, when people start to renew their policies under obama care, it is very likely that they will be higher than they are now, in part because not enough young people are signing up for policies. jenna: taking a look at editorials that support the health care law. as i was preparing to talk to you. i know you ve been critical of the health care law. when you look at those that argue this is going to work out, there are two main arguments if you will. we ll start with one of them. one of them says, listen this is all like big government problems, medicare part b, rough start but it will get better. what do you say to that? part-d had a rough start. it is very popular. it had a rough start, people like it. medicare had a rough start and
obamacare is a good deal if you re older and you have preexisting health conditions because it basically asks the young and healthy to subsidize the premiums of the older and sicker. the issue is if young people don t sign up and early evidence is that they re not signing up in sufficient numbers, then the insurance pool is too expensive. that means that rates will go up and a few more people will drop out. there have been eight states that have done the same reforms that obamacare is enacting right now and the experience is pretty much the same in all of them. you see a rate spiral as young people stay out of the market. and it attracts only the older and sicker. so, it s possible that will happen with obamacare. jenna: interesting. the administration still looks at numbers they re getting. says they are solid at this time and we have a couple months left until the real, real deadline of people signing up this year. john, let me circle back to the
the united states is having a hard time developing a sustainable policy. how do we encourage the emergence of democracy and economic prosperity over the long run? it seems like we re giving up already. jenna: one of the things i come up with his egypt elected controversial as it was a member of the muslim brotherhood, mohammed morsi. that raised questions about his power and questions about whether or not we are loyal to egypt or loyal to promoting administrations in other countries that are loyal to us. how do you think the balance should be when democracy can elect people that you and i don t agree with? morsi was a very effective president, he became very unpopular and the muslim brotherhood while they were in power did undemocratic things trying to concentrate too much power in their own hands. what they should have been allowed to do is fail through elections coming up. parliament elections coming this
