neil: next time a politician asked for more money, ask him what he astarte done with his money. as my four and would say, let's go to the videotape. he thinks that someone is absconding with a lot of that money. >> i think that's a little ridiculous. taxes are collected at the local and state level go for local and
8:01 pm
state roads. taxes that are collected for tolls go to maintain the toll roads. at $40 million, i am very proud. neil: get ready, welcome, everyone, maybe it was the way that he pitched in another tax hike that just made a snap. fixing the roads and briddes is only right. i said to the good secretary know, that is not right. not much you can fully account for the funds that we have already given you. local, federal, you name it. as you can see here, he can't. >> the highway trust fund is
8:02 pm
diminished. we will be out of money. we need people to step up and provide some leadership and come up with the money. that is what we have always done in america. >> okay, ring a bell? is it is the exact same argument i had with the democratic senator who wanted to raise the gas tax even more from 18.4 cents now. >> so you are talking about doubling the gas tax and acting like it's no big deal? >> i didn't say it was not a big deal. >> that americans want to know. how can you guarantee that? >> i just finished indicating to you that independent studies from business and he purposely
8:03 pm
don't have an idea. and i thank you for your time. neil: okay, i know some of you might find me very rude. listen up, pale, we need the money. so i'm going to ask you what i asked the good congressman and the good transportation secretary. to all of the other folks, the same issue. what happened to the money that we have given you already? kevin says the same thing. all he knows is that he pays a bundle in gas taxes and what is the deal? and alicia says i find your manner abrupt but i find nothing wrong with your wanting some simple answers. and i'm sure that it would be civil to find other examples of money being diverted to other
8:04 pm
projects. and you need not. you are right. we hope to give our hard earned money in our pockets. well good luck. the money is out there. the least maybe it is going toward its poster. the secretary is quite right to say we need fixtures. but i'm fixing to find out what is happening to the money that has arta been raised to fix things. including the $85 billion collected for fuel taxes each
8:05 pm
year just to do that. 212 billion bucks in total. the 9.8 million in property taxes and assessments or infrastructure spending. for 14.5 billion and the funding. $62 billion in washington supposedly earmarked for just the sort of thing. roads and bridges. and i had to literally laughed out that in stimulus were supposedly ready for shovel ready construction projects. i saw some troubling but it wasn't there. not for bridges and not for roads. unaccounted and those pushing for more dough are unaccountable. it has to stop, my friends. because this is killing us. because we are the ones getting locked out of our own lockbox. when politicians replace the funds that they stole and it
8:06 pm
happened when they promised that all the dough with good education. and we are still paying for the idiotic privilege. it ends as does the unaccounted gravy train to nowhere funded by hard-working americans whose money is going nowhere. stop it and itemize it and detailing. and after all of that, pushing for still more funding. if we find that you really are out of go, we will give you more dough. but not a penny more until you give us more than just your thoughts. we want answers and we want your numbers. we want your proof that this money isn't just going to disappear. because after spending chileans in war and poverty, i'm asking and the american people are demanding that before you show the money, show us what you have done with the money. it is that simple.
8:07 pm
and over to rick who was also feeling sick. because he was the head of a lot of folks. the former pennsylvania senator said it is not callous to question where the money is going. and every time that i question about more funding for any host of an issue, it's the same answer that i get. you don't know what's going on, but i'm telling you that it is like you are heinous to even raise the issue. >> you mentioned two programs. one is infrastructure spending and the other is one poverty. and there are plenty of examples in just those two areas in a lot of areas of the government exists with adverse consequences and we look at the one poverty and the attempt to help in the harm that has been done to the american family and to communities as well where government has replaced moms and dads and community organizations
8:08 pm
and looking at the infrastructure spending. there's a lot of very interested initiatives going on at the state level. it forces them to spend money on maybe good things like bike paths and all of these other things that are really nice. but they are the bread-and-butter projects are really make the economy click and they are not things that should be dictated from washington dc. so on top of that the rules and regulations that washington has and how you have to spend the money, all of these things that just make it expensiie for the state and local governments to spend the dollars. >> a lot of the federal politicians have cited this and it turns out that it is a state run road with other costs within the state take care of them and usually do.
8:09 pm
but there is overlap here and no one knows who is in charge of building one. so there is that overlap in a confusing issue here. but there is also a lack of priority going on and you talked about the bike path and a bridge that was falling down. i would err on the side of the bridge falling down. but no one seems to be policing a pecking order of projects here. and that worries me when a request for money. this is a state and local function. the reason the federal government got into the roads and bridges was to build an interstate system and something that i support. but it makes sense to have road race and connection for us to be a viable entity economically to have those kinds of networks. but really the bulk of the work must be done at the state and local level and that is where
8:10 pm
the taxes and increases come from. and so there is going to be more money it should be with local projects in mind and the federal government should focus on one thing and that is to keep the major arteries of the interstate and thorough fairs open for commercial traffic and potential for military use. neil: republicans and democrats, why are they afraid to rein in on us, it could be anything from good money combat money in the war on poverty. to a number of other initiatives. >> we have determined whether we care about so much we spend on it. and that is always the moniker
8:11 pm
here in washington dc. you don't care unless you're going to spend money. you mentioned one poverty is the best example that we have spending more money on things is simply wrong. there is a study done looking at the state of california and the state of texas in those states have very similar standpoints, almost the same percentage in texas has a higher percentage of african-african- americans in california does. for every two people in poverty there are three in california. if you look at cost of living and not just income, but all the factors and it shows that spending all this money to help the poor doesn't really result in poor people but more costly government. it requires a higher cost of living.
8:12 pm
neil: i readily see it. i travel over these highways and bridges myself. and i readily see abuse going on in missing funds going on in countless federal wars on a variety of social ills. but have yet to see any improvement here. i more or less say hold the phone and look at what we are spending. because right now we are repeating the same mistake and it won't make it any less of a mistake. have at it, call me anything you want. and what is the difference between chris christie and the irs mess? well, they are using criminal prosecution threats against a new jersey governor. but the fbi nics and criminal charges in the face of lots of damage. talk about scandals.

taxing. even as his enemies were circling with even criminal charges based on nothing more than suspicion, the fbi apparently making it very clear that no such charges are likely at the irs, even though they would seem to be pretty well based on a lot of facts. and the fact is that those tea party tax partners will get a criminal past. those who caused a traffic jam at work may not. that is a bit of a double standard. i'm not exonerating the governor are bashing the irs. but i'm saying that fair is fair. >> first of all it is outrageous that things happen in new jersey that disrupt common people's lives the way dead. so i'm not the least bit happy about the way it happened and i hope the governor is as outraged as the people in fort lee.

8:18 pm
anyone say that none of this seems to warrant any criminal type charges and how would you know? because a lot of those groups, no one has even talk to them even now. >> i think the irs scandal is a much bigger scandal in the context of all americans and our constitution and the potential abuse of the executive branch of government. and it was his office. >> it is apples and oranges. >> if governor chris christie comes out and promises that we get to the bottom of this, we have yet to see this. and someone should pay for this. and we have yet to see it.
