We talked about this before that it is really an impact of amazon, which people dont realize. Amazons tentacles are so wide and we dont know how the aca might be restructured at some point in the future, so this is a deal that has an impact from those phenomenon. Companies want to note a computer how to compete and this is their attempt to do that. An ice pick out because it hasnt been so great this year. We see it across many industries.

We always like that. Other onestop shot. Almost like a walmart effect. You can go home with dinner that night and some close for the weekend. If you go to cvs, just little things, Nurse Practitioner could be there eventually whatever it may be, supposed a lone dissenters there. The idea of integrating everything and putting them in one place seems to make sense. Maybe faces regulatory scrutiny im not sure. Dagen, mentions walmart. Its not the amazon effect, the walmart effect. The pharmacies in the instore health clinics, that cvs and at a together are looking at that is already an existing editor for this combination. Driving down the health care cost, the Cost Reduction with the discounts you might get on drugs is potentially like the skys the limit for driving pharmaceutical costs. One of my questions as puzzled as to and many within the industry. Are we going to see the health care in the pharmacies across the sector. The answer is yes. It is going higher as well and that is one of the things we thought would be an offshoot of tax reform getting done. One of the key elements was repatriation close to 3 trillion back to the United States. Certainly health care is going to be one of the key areas. R d is one of the questions this morning. One of the unintended consequences in the senate bill where they reinstated, reinstalled the corporate alternative minimum tax could undermine research and Development Tax credit.

When republicans see the way the Business Community is react to this, the ceo, bob and mary. What the senate did in the befuddled mass drove me out of business then bragged about the fact that the tax reform passage that is largely due to what youre talking about. Obviously house and Senate Republicans will be reconciling the name. Lawmakers are hopeful they can make this law this month. Watch this. We can have this within 10 days. Both of us are pretty close on that. They are not that big, but there are key significant differences they need to work out. Theres also that the amt, what the final plan could look like. I dont think the senate bill in hospital are that far apart. It was a surprise to me and thats something that will come out in conference. Traded to dallas a lastminute change and i would argue one of the recent Senate Republicans did this because high income people in high tax states, new york, connecticut, california, they take advantage and was kicking it over so they were like were just going to make a text message them for thinking about leaving new york. In the senate not repealing the entire amt. This is the pushback from the leadership whenever complaints about the deduction going away. Kevin mccarthy was on the program saying you cant repeal the amt. Now what . Dagen i will point this out to Mitch Mcconnell. Individual taxes going up by Many Americans in high tax states. In the house the differences to 45. 6 bubble rate the house inserted still in the house bill. The bubble rate is still in the hospital. Its not in the senate bill but it is in the house bill. Theyve got to come together on the 3825 as the top tax rate in the senate bill. They are not cutting taxes on people. Those are all in blue states. No republican senators.

What happens there . The theres a lot of variables there that could trip data. They are looking to do a twoweek bridge to close the christmas.

If you can bring the level in the 20 to 25 neighborhood can fix the impression problem that becomes a significant deal where you can talk about gdp growth from 2 up to 3 . Weve seen that over the last couple quarters and that is what the market is excited about. Sustainability of 3 gdp rate. President said he could accept a 22 rate instead of a 20 tax rate. That was a little bit of a walk back. As the marketer is 20 , 22 . Lets make a deal. I bet the president of starwood 15 and be willing to negotiate out. He put down a 20 marker which was was higher than he thought. If one is to get somewhere within that 20 to 22 . That puts us in mind with the world and eliminates the problem which was because their rates are simply too high before. Will we get a selloff if its done . Thats a good question. I dont know.
