of tsa agents were fired for illegal gambling in pittsburgh. totally waste of our money. just privatize the hour already. "cavuto on business," next. the clock is ticking on health care law that keeps, well, kicking us. hello, everybody. i'm neil cavuto. if you thought companies cutting their coverage because of this law and even more jobs because of this law, if you thought any of that was bad news, hold on. because in california, that is exactly what patients will be forced to do. insuranccompanies are limiting the number of doctors and hospitaling in their plan, and that is expected to mean more wait time. but do not say i did not warn you. you might want to invest in office furniture makers. hear me out on this. specifically those who make chairs and couches for waiting room because as i see it, they'll be the only guys making

money, a lot of money, in all of those waiting rooms. wouldn't you know it, their stock prices have quadrupled. no, i have no idea. i made that up. let the waiting begin. the pain begins? >> herman miller stock is through the roof. >> see that? i saw it coming. >> you saw it coming. we all should have seen it coming, right, because everywhere in the world where there's socialized medicine, we see the lines. i mean, t kind of stuff in america that we can kind of just drive up to, go in, get it done, leave in time for the monday night football, you've got to wait six months in europe. so we saw this coming. and i just think the bottom line with this whole thing with the exchanges is, get them in there. herd them in there. ultimately, the administration is going for a single pair and so far de facto, and that's what they are getting. >> they don'tnow how to herd them in, though. a lot of pele don't know the rules, the standards by which you art doing herding.

it's like herding kittens, almost. good luck. >> every day we find out what a bigger daster obama care is. last week, the "wall street journal" reported that there's a software glitch calculating what people are supposed to pay for insurance in these exchanges. and of course, the exchanges are supposed to go live on october 1. so you can't even tell at this point whether people are going to get the accurate information ornot. >> they are not. there's no way. >> at the same time, you have home depot getti ready to dump part-time employees into these very exchanges. there will be a lot more people in them than anybody ever imagined, and a lot more headaches and nightmares related to just getting people insurance. >> you know what it is, i was mentioning your fine name because you were watching and looking forward to this, it's like a wedding, where you don't have the priest locked down. the band locked down, the catering hall. you have nothing locked down. you just know that the wedding is on october 1. and i guess fingers crossed it all works out ok.

but it would be like in my daughter's case the groom isn't even locked down. what the heck? >> i was going to say, the cup half full scenario to your metaphor is that the bride and groom love each other and they are going to get married, and all of these other things don't matter quite as much. >> so tr. you know, that's what makes you the big-hearted liberal you are. and i love that about you. >> if i can extend this, the bride and groom do not love each other because you people who hate obama care -- >> who are you calling "you people"? >> so on the substance, let me address this. charles, you do a disservice to people by saying on television that this is socialized medicine because you know it's not. >> what is it? >> the government has set up insurance exchanges to help the uninsured get insurance. anall i can say is, look, as journalists, we should be picking this thing apart.

we should be analyzing it. but i once again need to be the reagan optomist and say that in the not so distant future we're going to have something better. of course it's better. >> in a news flash here, this isn't socialized medicine. that's a headle. you know, i think the sariest thing about this is -- >> it's not, charlie. explain why you don't agree with me that it's not. >> you just said that the government created the exchanges. >> correct. but it's not government providing health care. there's a big difference. >> is not that big of a difference. and i really do believe this. this thing is not going to work, and the scariest thing about is it we're not going to be able to unscramble the egg. my brother is a doctor. works in an i.c.u., inner city hospital. >> what happened to him? >> yeah, i know. don't go there. thank you for trying to throw me off. >> i did not mean that. i did not mean that. [ laughter ] >> my son the doctor.

the other is a muck raking journalist. >> just my thoughts. >>t's impossible to scramble this egg. we're stuck with it. and i hate to say it. adam is right in this. we can hope, because this thing is here to stay. >> another thing, adam. you might have stumbled on something else as well. you're right, thiss not health care. it's health ca insurance. anybodody out there, particular poor people, who think they are going to get great medical care when this is all said and done, are in for a rude awakening. >> i'm glad you're so optimistic that the entire health care system for everybody is going to somehow be better because of is, cause again you're going to have limited choices. people who got insurance from their company might have to go to an exchange, which by the way, 36 of these exchanges are either partially or fully run, or will be, by the federal government. last time i went into the post office i wanted to stab myself in the footbecause that would make me feel better. i'm not optimistic. >> the government is running some of the exchanges? is that not socialized medicine?

>> well, it's health insurance. >> socialized health insurance. >> it's socializing medical insurance, is what you're saying. >> which we've had for quite a long time. >> in all seriousness, i'm not here to redebate the health care law, what it is or isn't. but i am looking at what will probably be a very bumpy start, because i think as you pointed out, adam, a lot of the things that should be up and running aren't up and running. and i'm wondering if that miean a lot of people thatre ready to go have no idea what they have to do. their bosses haveno idea what to do. and a lot of people then would technically be breaking a law of which they are very ignorant. and that alone creates a lot of problems. >>n that point, the administration is willing to delay the enforcement because of the complication. and it doesn't help that you have the house of representatives trying to defund this thing that is -- that we're

trying very hard to g off the ground. that creates a lot of uncertainty for people as well. is it going to be around? but charlie already answered that. it will be around so we should make it work instead of trying to destroy it before istarts. >> but charles is saying just as you pointed ou that the very beginning of this is going to be bumpy. we already know it's getting to be very expensive. but the countercampaign in support of it is to say, well, now we know that a lot of folks are going e up paying $100 a mon for their insurance. they are going to save a lot of money. but a lot more folks are going to be paying for it through sharply higher premiums. the question will be, whose base is really zoomed here? >> let's put this way. businesses have gotten a free pass. insurance companies can still rae your rates next year. and it's the little guy that is not getting anything. so it's going to be more expensive than we thought. someone has to bear the brunt of that. and i have to tell you something, don't are fooled by the idea about the premiums. i want us to undetand what your deductibles are going to be. i think a lot of people will get

into plans that look cheap. i want the silver plan. and find out your first deductible is $5,000. and you're back to square one. >> which we have all experienced in theew york area, to find out that your doctor no longer takes insurance period. if you can't pay for services up front and in full, you're not going to be able to see the doctor anymore. >> now i know what pelosi was talking about. >> you're learning the hard way. >> be nervous if you walk into your waiting room and it's cnn playing. ner turn around. a new twist in the irs scandal. turns out that it was monitoring some groups even after they were given a tax exemption. the forbes gang saying it's more proof that the ancy really isn't about the money anymore. that's coming up at the top of the hour. up next, flooding,

see who does good work and compare costs. it doesn't usually work that way with health care. but with unitedhealthcare, i get informatn on quality rated doctors,

treatment options and estimates for how much i'll pay. that helps me, and my guys, make better decisions. i don't like guesses with my business, and definitely not with our health. innovations thatork for you. that's health in numbers. unitedhealthcare. we should be facing the reality oflimate change. look what happened in colorado. they are spending all of our time, e american taxpayer times, trying to repeal a law that's been in effect for four years. >> certainly as i look at sequestration, which is about saving money in the federal government being spe, that we somehow skimped, you know, on what would be available for projects like this and then we put people at risk. >> amazing. well, it didn't take long to take these tragedies and use these tragedies. how many times have you and i

covered this sort of thing, yet again? >> first, before i start, which four-letter words am i allowed to use on cable tv before i start talking? >> a wide gamut. it's pretty -- >> they have a delay on me. >> seven-day delay on charlie. >> i can give you some media words. how about repugnan repulsive, abhorrent. that's what this behavior is. and it's classic scare tactics to use a horrible tragedy, flooding, shooting, to justify some liberal cause. and that is exactly what you're seeing. and you know what? it will not fool americans. they can smell it, and they can see it, and those laaks should be ashamed of themselves. >> i'm never surprised by this kind of stuff. i was just surprised at how quickly we got to it. >> and it gets glossed over. this is a story. the media doesn't cover it. you're an elected official, there's a story. i remember hearing that people

who are in favor of tax cuts is racist el. >> element. and the media lets them get away with it. we should be hearing media reports of how dumb harry reid is, and we're not. >> harry reid is a moron. >> it's sick. it really is sick. really, naturalisasters have been part of mankind before mankind. that's kind of how the dinosaurs got wiped out. >> and, boy,ou should have seen how the press ripped the dinosaurs. >> they did. an amazing mass murder. and l of the sudden, some woman in missou who's only gone her whole life and never used a gun somehow pulled the trigger. and even the president earlier in the week saying that the tea party wanted to hurt americans. it's one thing to say, i upthin their policies will hurt americans. but to say they want to hurt

peop. the left is trying to paint the right as evil, haters, racists. and 's gotten to the point -- >> and they are aided and, b abetted by two-thirds of the media. >> 13 shot in chicago. >> crickets. >> whether you're on the right or left, shouldn't tis sort of scussion be left out? maybe in a week like this. don't peg anything to whatou think of chiemt change to what you think of the sequestration. security was not compromised by sequestration. stop that kind of talk, and maybe give it a one-week wait. >> sure. i completely agree that we have a climate in our country where a member of the house of representatives calls the present of the united states a liar on the floor of the united states congress. it'srepugnant. >> i asked you about tis week and these statements. this week. >> constantly calling each other names and attacking policies.

>> when that happens, when he calls him a liar, "the new york times" reports it about it and theyriticized the congressman. and that the difference, adam. the press is complicit in ts stuff. >> i reject that completely. i think you're making that up entirely. >> you're rejecting that 2/3 of the media is abo as left of center as president obama and agrees with him on every topic? and doesn't cover the dumb things he says about the economy constantly? >> and i think that 90% of the media are made up of responsible professionals who are doing a good job. >> right. and they're perfectly objective, you're sayingheir bias never comes into play, never enters the equation? "the new york times" is totally unbiassed with the stories they put on page 1. are you really -- >> can i take a leap and say you're not a fan of the president? >> you know, listen, i have said nice things about president obama on this show. i was once offered a job by "the new york times." i'm glad i didn't take it. but i am telling you, that if

you say the media -- >> now the's another one anytime soon. >> and i'm not accepting one anytime soon. >> all the blame game and all the excuses,you know, here we are, a little more than a week away from health care kicking in, another budget revolution going nowhere fast the debt limit a few ys, weeks tops. could look like we're shting down. none of this looks like progress tome. >> no. it's going to be a fight every day. >> i agree. >> every week. over all of these issues. but to look -- i mean, when a tragedy, a shooting, for example, is so fresh and so raw, and people are grieving, and to have someone come out and say, we, and immediately pivot to the sequester and sequestration, i am speechless. unfortunately, these people aren't speechless. >> did they ever think about
