i hope you make money. i will see you right back here tomorrow. ♪ gerri: hello, everybody. i'm gerri willis. tonight on "the willis report" the numbers of iran. the cost of every american for obamacare. already scaring off the very people that have to sign up to make the law work. what you need to know about trading in your old electronics. how do you do that? "consumer reports" is here to help. suzanne somers is here with the new hit book. i'm too young for this. we are watching out for you tonight on "the willis report." ♪
6:01 pm
suzanne somers and caro. it's really beautiful. you will have to stay tuned for that. tartare story tonight, obamacare . obamacare his and. could lead people wanting to opt out. with less than a week before the exchange's open the obamacare administration releasing the average cost of premiums and quickly touting affordability, but is it as affordable as the white house wants us to believe? here to weigh in, a scholar at the american enterprise institute. thank you for coming on the show. let's look at some of these basics. average premium for this exchange, something pretty common. $3.28 a month, $4,000 a year without subsidies. is that a good price? >> not a good price for people who are poor paying less or better prices in the pre exchange market. the figures are not preciie. these are all buried in
6:02 pm
averages. i will give you one baseline figure. in 2011 the average individual market premium was about $25.80 per year which could vary depending upon was to your end and what age you are. one of the reasons why these premiums a higher under the new or exchange plan is there basically increasing the type of benefit you are getting and coverage. more expensive. that works out fine for some folks. if you want those and have heavy subsidies, but if you are younger and healthier you will be paying more. you already said if you're uninsured you probably could not afford it if you did not want to buy it previously. the mandate will try to make those individuals pay for it. gerri: great information. especially the comparison with the average individual premium. i was looking at this list today. we tweeted it. you can actually see a map of some of these numbers. the problem is, a lot of these are averages which really are not that meaningful. the thing that really blew me
6:03 pm
away is out you insurers are participating. the government says something like 53 plans are available under, you know, every state exchange. when you look at the range it goes from six, as few as six of the way to 168 of 1609. the devil is in the details. why aren't more insurers and brand name, big-name insurers participating? >> there have been a number of states. this is more on the state-based exchanges. this is the first disclosure of what is going on. they came very late to the party. pretty much stayed out of it when they were being squeezed down. we had batman not participating, united health to some degree. what i am getting is a lot of the managed-care medicaid insurers are trying to step up and get a larger market share, bringing more and come. i'm not sure of that is where we
6:04 pm
want to go. gerri: it is fascinating. which of these companies will participate. it goes, can they do this business and have the wherewithal to make people whole? another thing i found interesting, premiums in state and the virtual plans are basically the same. you would think that the federal government with all of its power could get really, really great deals. pretty much the same as the states. how you analyze that? >> first off, the feds are desperate to get anything out the door at the last minute. the states that have reported thus far are the ones that are the most enthusiastic and invested in trying to heavily regulate and manage the markets. there is also a little difference in participation, probably broader ensure participation in the handful of state-run exchanges as opposed to the federal exchanges. given that number before. think about insurers.
6:05 pm
sometimes the variations do not tell you as much about competition. gerri: a lot of plans out there. everyone offering different kinds of platinum and silver and gold, you name it. you brought up young people before and what will be a test of whether obamacare is working or not on tuesday when these exchanges open will be this, our young people signing of. what are you betting? >> one of the things that was of little artificial, and this was the way political press releases were done, the numbers we got today or about the lowest cost plan, lowest cost premium. and it was compared to an artificial baseline of an older set of cbo calculations. we do not know what the market looks like. your question about what young people will do. they are facing a modest, hardly noticeable individual mandate penalty. we know that to the extent that they already are not making a lot of money and are uninsured,
6:06 pm
that probably won't change when prices were lower but did not buy insurance. even with the subsidies for many of them that will make the difference. more likely than not we will lassies and people flocking in to buy this insurance which they have not in the past, and in this case they're being asked to pay more in order to subsidize other people. gerri: one missing link in all of this. and what is really your press release, deductibles. there is not a lot of information about that. what should we think about what the deductibles will be. >> well, you are correct. the full cost of coverage and health care includes all of your costs. now, a little bit of a mixed bag . the new required coverage is going to us, to some extent to reduce the amount, the size of the deductible the people of likely to face. one of the reasons why the pre
6:07 pm
exchange coverage was more affordable was there might be higher deductibles or larger, sharing. that was a good bargain for a lot of people. here is how much money i have to spend. i can still make my premiums affordable because i need money for other things. we have not had all of the information out yet on the deductibles. we're talking about the individual market, a provision of the law which prevents small group employers from having a larger set of deductibles under the law. there are actually below the so-called hsa levels of cost sharing. the 70% actuarial value for the silver plan, that is a lot of cost sharing, but not as much as the average individual claim which is more affordable. gerri: let me tell you, i am listening to you talk about this. this is so, so complicated.
6:08 pm
the federal government, of course, the stores open on tuesday. you have to be able to prove coverage as of january 1st, 2014. it is unclear to me whether you can actually make a case for these plans to the american pe and this will actually work. do you think with all the problems, glitches, the 13,000 pages of rules and regulations to my kendis work? >> it depends first of what the administration has been doing is lowering expectations and then exceeding them barely. you know, they cannot be embarrassed by whatever happens. certainly there will be some enrollment and some functioning. it looks like the system is not going to melt down on monday. so it depends what your standard is. new operations and plans, the promises, you will fall woefully
6:09 pm
short. if you want to say anything that works and is not completely misfire and malfunction is good enough for the first year and a live for the next year, that might be the standard of success gerri: ali count. thank you for coming on. great to see you. i hope we get to see you next week when we do our health care special coverage. love to have you back. thank you, sir. >> thank you very much. gerri: now we want to know what you think. healthy young people, will they sign up for obamacare? log on to gerriwillis.com, vote on the right hand side of the screen. we will share the results. bringing you a user's guide to obamacare where we will break down all the big consumer questions. who has to sign up, when you sign up? what kind of coverage is available, the cost, all questions answered. you will want to join us for that. and here is story that has been bugging me all day. blackberry announcing last friday that they had plans to
6:10 pm
cut 4500 jobs. a billion dollars worth of unsold phones sitting around. excess inventory. that same day company executives dump their stock. there is no proof of insider trading, but it smells funny and shows how the market is rigged to advantage insiders. joining me now, chief strategist at bill. asset management. welcome back to the show. i left out of little detail. they automatically sold before the announcement. you know how much money they manage to save themselves? >> it was not a lot. gerri: $20,000. that may not be allowed to you, but it makes a lot of difference to a lot of people. >> in the end we will find is that this is either an innocent mistake or just, you know, a total lack of communication within the firm. i find it difficult to believe that these two gentlemen -- want to get there names right. gerri: this ceo and cfo.
6:11 pm
this is not some guy on the board is not know what is going on. these are people at the center of blackberry. they know everything that is going out the door, know what the press releases before it even hits the wires. gerri: i understand that but find it difficult to believe that these gentlemen would risk their reputations over $22,000, relatively speaking in the scheme of things. gerri: that deadly sin, agreed. it does happen. i don't know what the motivation is. but you have got to say, from the outside, but individual investors to you cannot have knowledge of the press release, that does not make them. this is more evidence of the unlevel playing field. >> it has always been an level. gerri: that does not make it right commanded should be changed. >> the easy way out of this is to discourse the profits. gerri: do you think there will do it?
6:12 pm
>> they should. gerri: calling on them to do that? >> i am calling on them. gerri: i love it. it is a mistake, whatever. you don't care. make your right. >> giving 22,000. they have 3 million at the beginning of the year. i think they can afford it. gerri: were talking about this all the time. that sort of falls into this bailiwick. the other big one, the federal reserve. this is really scary, frightening, and we have about three different journalistic institutions today saying, hey, we are not cheating, not giving of this information early despite the fact and you can talk about this. we saw a change, bump, every action before the announcement in gold prices. >> we did. and you had three news organizations come out and said they did absolutely nothing. blumberg, thompson reuters, interestingly, down jones has not said that. they are cooperating.
6:13 pm
in the and we will find out is that this will come down to high-frequency trading. very difficult to understand. we are talking about a low latency fee. a news organization that is releasing the data. this is machines trading with other machines. the way they caught this was that technically this should have happened in new york first. it happened in chicago. they both happened at the same time. a few milliseconds difference. gerri: the advantage you get from knowing what the fed will do before anyone else is huge. i want to read what they had to say. we did not release any info. this covers all distribution inclusive information distribution outside the locked up room. all these reporters are in a locked up from. that is the way it works. that me tell you. our friends right down the hall say we will continue to work cooperatively to report in full accordance with their desires
6:14 pm
which is sort of a non denial denial. >> it is. and we may find it was an error. we may find criminal wrongdoing. who knows? gerri: thank you. >> thank you for having me. gerri: your patience with me. appreciated. more to come this hour, including advice on getting the most bang for your buck. next, the threat of a government shutdown is bad enough. the treasury secretary says we will hit the debt ceiling shortly after. what is congress doing? ♪ my customers can shop around--

6:18 pm
fellow in federal budgetary affairs at the heritage foundation. thank you for joining us. >> thank you for having me. gerri: raising the debt ceiling yet again. i want you to hear what they have to say about this. >> on the matter of the debt ceiling the answer is, no, we will not negotiate. >> i will not negotiate on any means or any way on extending the debt ceiling. >> that is why i will not negotiate or the full faith and credit of the united states. will not allow anyone to on this country's reputation or threaten to inflict economic pain on millions of our own people to to make an ideological point. gerri: democrats saying the republicans are hijacking the country. you kidding me? these people don't want to negotiate at all. full stop. what do you say? >> the president and congress should cut spending and put the budget on a path to balance before increasing the debt ceiling.
6:19 pm
this idea that somehow the welfare of america is dependent upon the government being able to spend and borrow without any limit, that is just simply not true. the opposite is true. if you have too much spending you are hurting the economy, americans. think of an entrepreneur who cannot go on because interest rates go through. gerri: we could be in that situation. it could be around the corner. here is what i don't get. why have a debt ceiling? we do not pay a bit of attention to it. we raise it every year twice a year. why should we even bother. >> it is supposed to serve as a wake-up call for the congress and president to be confronted with what happens when you spend too much. you end up with a massive national debt which now stands at $140,000 for very american household. it does not work unless the president and congress respond to the debt limit by cutting spending and putting the budget on the path to balance. that is what needs to happen.
6:20 pm
gerri: we were just showing the national debt. i have an act here. the government every day is spending $60 billion which to me sounds like a heck of a lot of money. what do we cut? nancy pelosi says he cannot get anything. you say there is room to cut. where? >> there is a lot of wasted fraud that needs to go, but you cannot put the budget on the path to balance unless you go after the entitlement. 45 percent of spending goes to programs like social security, medicare and medicaid. in ten years it will consume half of the budget. you need to reform the entitlements and do so now. gerri: i agree but have to mention a couple of little things that are crazy. the fda spending $1,802,000 to better understand social media because we need the people at the fda to tweet, i guess. the post office, which as you
6:21 pm
know, is having major, major, major problems, spending half a million dollars on a future is to study the fate of postage stamps. help me get my mind around this. deep financial trouble and hiring someone to look into a crystal ball. you kidding me? >> allow the federal agencies are making bad decisions. the one thing that we have right now that is actually helping to bring down federal spending, is the sequestered. despite all of the fear mongering hear this, democrats want to get rid of sequestration . senator charles schumer said that he will negotiate spending as high as possible. that is the problem right there. gerri: you are not kidding. thank you for coming on. i hope we get to see you again soon. >> thank you. gerri: we are not done yet.

banging into you and there are potholes. by the time i get to fox i am stressed. i had to up my estrogen because of the stress of new york city. imagine what it is doing to all the rest of you. gerri: i want to ask you. it is exciting but there is something else that goes along with that, that is your shoulders up to your ears half the time. you say hormone therapy is the answer. tell us what you know. >> let me give you two examples. there is such a misnomer about hormonal replacement. a study of 80,000 women, a famous study. the conclusion of that was women on synthetic hormones had a 69%
6:36 pm
increased risk of getting breast cancer from those hormones. 69%. the hormones i take are biologically identical to the human hormone and an exact replica of what your body makes or once made. they did a study of the american cancer society 422,000 women, the conclusion was women from 40 on who took biogenic o hormones had a 41% decreased risk of breast cancer. it is very different and very conclusive to me. i have been on them for 16 years now. i think it has slowed down the aging process in me giving back my quality of life. gerri: how has your life improves?

pills. this cocktail they put women on that messes with our ability to be wise and thinking. and i heard, had my lab work done, she taught me about hormones and i never looked back. gerri: and you look fantastic. everybody in the building knows about it. i love the name of your book, "i'm too young for this." what are you hoping to tell women out there? >> women don't realize this could possibly be happening to them. a women in that demo would say to me i don't know why i am not sleeping well. it is probably my hormones. no, i'm too young for this. i realize my first started writing books on hormones, the younger ones were not interested because they felt perfect.

6:54 pm
men jump in and out of investments all the time. women tend to stay the course, right? seems to me by definition even if they don't say they have the confidence, they are probably doing a better job. >> investments and target funds with higher percentage than their male counterparts. they tend to stay the course and balance equities and bonds so the market volatility women stay disciplined. the second important piece is budgeting. set a good budget and stick with it is very good disciplined investors who gets to retirement and have a successful retirement if they have been able to live on a budget very successfully. gerri: i love that. thanks for coming on the show tonight, great stuff we had interesting, the debate wages over men and women. back with my two cents more and the answer to the question of the day.
