"the willis report" is on the case. ♪

all that and more coming up, but we begin with an issue critical to the millions of americans, the high cost of prescription drugs. the big drug companies are in a new push to keep generic versions of some of there blockbuster medications off the market. the latest fight is not just happening in washington where the drug lobby spends most of its money. in state houses all across the country. the effort to limit generic competition also calls into question the promised savings that are supposed to come our way through obamacare. with us now, andrew man johnny from the association amateur american citizens. welcome to the show. great to have you here. i want to star with the idea of this cost and the rising cost of health care in this country. obamacare was supposed to fix this. it seems like generics should be part of the solution to rising

cost. this does not help. >> generics are definitely part of the solution. i think it is important that we define what type of generic we're talking about. this is uncharted territory, bylaws and trucks, and there are no standards. the fda has not come up with any standards to regulate these from a generic perspective. it is kind of a conundrum, no question about it. gerri: the savings that people get from generic drugs. $1 trillion over ten years. a trillion dollars over ten years. now, this, to me, seems to be a critical way of protecting this country from rising medical costs. what did these drug makers hope to gain by keeping generics off the shelf? >> well, i think that what they are looking at in the area of biologics, a safety issue, no question about it because what i mentioned before, in uncharted territory, these medications are

complex molecules. what they're hoping to gain these new standards. we need some leaders from not only the administration but from the fda in coming aboard new standards to determine the generic equivalents the of these pilots of medications. gerri: and, of course, to be clear, of drug companies have bought generics across the board, not just the specific category. will we see is 80 percent of the 4 billion prescriptions issued each and every year are for generic drugs. think about that. the numbers are impressive. we just wanted to walk through. and it -- andrew, i think you will enjoy comparisons for people out there on the cost of the branded version in this generic component starting with plastics. two under and 24 for the branded version, 112 for the generic one for difference of $112. a one month supply. let the tour, 191. generic 196, a savings of $95 for people who are getting at a

monthly basis. what does this mean in particular? members of your organization grimacing years who must think about this very seriously. >> you're absolutely right. as an advocate for older americans we do not want to see our members' medical bills, specifically drug costs go up even 1 penny. there is a lot of concern. you're looking at an older population is suffering from chronic conditions that are high utilizes a medications. this is an issue that has to be addressed at only -- it is 2-pronged. the federal government has to work in concert with the drug organizations to make sure the cut ( equitable solution that they should not do on the backs of senior citizens. >> these other people buying these drugs, for sure. people on fixed incomes, let's keep that in mind. the amount of spending each and every year on health care, all sorts to my including pharmaceuticals, and we have seen as prices go up on pharmaceuticals roughly 5 percent each and every year.

if you don't have generic in the marketplace can you bring those prices down? >> it is awful tough. i would say it is nearly impossible without the generic competition. gerri: all right. well, before warned. you know, these companies are trying to take your generics off-the-shelf. thank you for explaining it to us. appreciate your time. >> thank you. gerri: and other big problem for obamacare. very few states will have health care exchanges set up by october. now, that is what was required by law. exactly half of the state's 25 are a definite no which means that nearly two-thirds of the country, the federal government will have to step in and run the system. what does now, former cbo director. great to have you on this show. what do you think that this means, half of the states are saying we don't want to play. >> i think there are two lessons. the first is that this is simply

not going to get over the finish line in time. they're way behind -- gerri: october. >> yes. it will not get there. from a subsequent review this will be a disaster. you live here word of that out of the administration. they will make every effort to declare victory come january. anyone who has anything remotely resembling exchange will get credit, and they have to declare this to be a success. gerri: they keep pushing the deadline. they're doing everything that they can command the become a get this, in changing the names of the exchanges to market places. i guess they think that somehow sounds friendlier organizer somehow. >> i mean, they pushed back deadlines, provided more money. at this point the reality is, please tell us what you would do and when he will do it and we will accept it. you go around this. twenty-five states have done this. it falls apart it is not our fault. another group said we're going to do this.

from a policy perspective that is quite intriguing because the states of the future of health care reform. the place where you can get real competition or not, as the previous story pointed out, and if you take that on and say, here is a we are going to do, the competition we will produce, the coverage we will have. i don't think they have a choice to say anything but yes. we will see how it plays out. gerri: and want to ask you about this story. you say this is about competition, this issue of the drug companies trying to hold back generic versions that are much, much cheaper. i thought obamacare was supposed to solve all this, we were going after the high and rising price tag of health care in this country? it turns out rivera look, from the cost of prescription drugs to the cost of insurance premiums, it is all going up. >> with the caveat that your previous guest said about getting the licensing rights none is more complex molecules, this is about absence of competition. in fact, obamacare is pushing

consolidation. seeing hospitals buyup doctor practices to my fewer choices and at what cost. anytime you have that kind of consolidation and market power you get higher prices, not lower and less choice. we're going the wrong direction state-by-state if you look underneath. gerri: on top of that you figure out what is going on with physicians in this country. it used to be put you're single lot, started a practice to develop relationships the patients that you fortified over years and decades, and now these guys are just jumping on board with any hospital in many other bigger group that they can join. we have lost that. it seems to me that this is a fundamental change in the way health care is being delivered in this country. >> it is true. it is happening, and it is quite ironic because as you know obamacare is bad for small business. one of our key small businesses was the sole practitioner doctor. disappearing. the canada and other requirements, they're handing over the business side hospital

or a large position group in going on to try to get out of the business and just to medicine. gerri: always great having you on the show. thank you for coming on board. next time you have to be in new york. >> it's a deal. gerri: thanks. well, we have more still to come this hour. what you need to know if you're looking for a super bowl ticket. that's right. and the government can big banks nickel-and-diming people in need. why did it cards are being given to benefit recipients and how much it costs you coming up. ♪ all stations come over to mission a for a final go.

gerri: not even rate of return. the fact that people delay having families, getting married, buying a house. their entire lives are in suspense and while this happens. they stuck to pay this off. >> it is startling. what is scary is i know young people letter saying, on the job, but you don't necessarily have to get a four year degree to get a job. there are other ways to get a well paying jobs. vocational schools. we will always need mechanics and plumbers. you do not need for your education to be a successful small business owner. i think we're losing that. the rich selling kids you need to get a degree to be successful , and that think their is a big disconnect. gerri: let me give you a couple of facts that i think you're going to frighten mom and dad. 50 percent of taxi drivers will college degrees. 25 percent of retail sales clerks, one-quarter of retail sales clerks are college graduates.

in this economy is just not creating the kinds of jobs that put them to work. does that mean you should necessarily stay home and not get a degree? >> i think we also need to value what kind of agree they're getting, and the study has been looked at by different people. they might be getting a degree in literature or sociology, but they might be studying engineering because many engineering jobs. we're going to have to higher overseas. the digging below studying degrees that do not have value in the marketplace. right now they are not hiring people with sociology degrees. that is that something lucrative gerri: i could not agree more. people need to be a little more practical and the weather they look at this. european history and all of these kinds of degrees that people get. the chair. you name it. difficult to put to work, particularly in today's economy, and that another stanley parents and family are not adding kids more in there choices. >> absolutely, and there's a lot

of ability in pursuing your dreams of becoming a theater major, what is their practicality? you can enjoy theater and be a plumber or mechanic if that is really what will be most practical for you, and i don't see there is any -- it does not make any sense to take up hundreds of thousands of student loans to get to a private school on the state to study something that you will never get a job and, like eastern medieval history. gerri: and the amount of student debt right now is astonishing. $936 billion. that is a huge number. >> astronomical. gerri: so many people get this debt forgiven for a variety of reasons. all kinds of programs you can sign on to the payless copy over time, stretching out which seems to me to almost be worse than not getting a lot in the first place. if you cannot get it paid out you cannot move on, you cannot really start your life. >> a student loan that is a trap, and it is for a lot of different reasons, and i think the scariest part of student loan debt is it hampers entrepreneurship.

let's say their is a great entrepreneur. what if after graduating from harvard with hundreds of thousands in student loans, he might have never able to start facebook. the same with bill gates and steve jobs. this allowed them from starting these amazing technological enterprises that we enjoy today, so we need to look is to learn that as debt that might be preventing entrepreneurship from occurring which is a point that we need to start making across the country. gerri: thank you for coming on. good to see you. >> thank you for having me. gerri: wow college may not be for everybody, college towns of becoming a popular choice for seniors looking to retire, thanks in large part to low-cost. tonight, top five through 2013, and this is according to the oregon institute for economic research. number five, oregon to my home of oregon state university. this town medalist based diets high quality of life and professional opportunities. number four, iowa city, iowa, home of the university of iowa. if you're a lover of all things

good question because people need to know how to prevent this from happening. first of all, have some type of customer initiated activity in your account at least once a year. a savings account, but $5 the amount take $5 out. the earning interest does not count. don't let it sit there. tell that it's that there. update your beneficiary contact information. in some cases you may find out that the person has died or is an ex spouse. cash every check as soon as you get. as per your utility deposit refund to be refunded now if you have been current on your bill. gerri: that is a good idea. i like that. all right. >> holding onto it. gerri: that is a great list. thank you for coming on. the website, unclaimed. maybe there is money for you. you don't know. thank you for coming on. appreciate your time. >> thank you. gerri: when we come back, warning for small-business owners about taxes and the federal reserve meeting this week. will they decide to turn off the

recovery. we saw numbers today from kaye scholer showing that home prices were up more than 5 percent of the last year. we had not seen and not long time, so we are seeing credit starting to get to parts of the economy where it was -- gerri: at the same time, are you worried about the flip side? that with a little economic boost year as the economy starts to recover, we could find ourselves with interest rates and inflation rising in short order. >> well, you know, i think the problem is not inflation. we have been talking about inflation for three years. there is a problem that think we need to be talking about, a potential problem, which is, can the fed creates another bubble? you know, look at the corporate loan market right now. this is a market where during the boom in 2007 we were hearing about these crazy loans called to talk loans with very low. basically people could default and there was very little recourse for the lenders.

guess what, that lending is starting to show up again on the financial landscape. you know, i think that talk about inflation has been overdone, but there is -- the fed does need to worry about whether it might be brewing financial instability down the road. >> so, you are saying that the fed is pushing big banks into the sorts of lending, not to individual investors or mortgage holders, but to companies that may ultimately come back and bite them in the bud. >> we could see it get overdone. it certainly is something that they have to look out for. we are not anywhere near where we were in 2006-7. gerri: no, we are not. >> the roll we have today, the old world was inflation. that was 1970's. the world we live in today is financial success. we had tech bubble, housing boom and credit bubble, and they -- us other risks that we need to be talking about right now. gerri: all right. well, are you sorry that we are going to be japan, which sought

disinflation, frightening and devaluing of assets over time. could that happen? >> well, that is the scenario that ben bernanke is fighting against. that is the one that he worries about, i repeat of japan and the great depression which is why they feel so comfortable pushing interest rates so low end of this money into the economy because they think, you know, listen, we get valuable books. we did have a housing bubble. we saw how that played out for the japanese. it has been a terrible 20 last years for them. that is a battle that he is fighting. gerri: i guess you will have to wait and see. go ahead. >> what i am saying is if we are worried about whether the fed can overdo it, let's stop talking about the risk of inflation and start talking about the risk of overdoing it in causing another -- more financial -- gerri: marbles, and all right. thank you for coming on. great to see you. thanks a bunch.
