we will see you next week. neil: so much for new year's resolutions because you may try to stick to tat diet by washington gave up trying. welcome, everybody. i am neil cavuto. get ready to get back to continue more spending because it never spped. ending the week with the budget that is weak. a.m. did goodies for all including to keep democrats happy in benefits to keep republicans happy but if you are among those who worry about the debt d more

spending, you are not happy. tough. e president thinks even the mice -- smallest promised even for a living adjustments with some benefit programs that are not happening in republicans are not arguing. spending money like we have it and a farm bill that has little to do with arms i infrastructure spending when we have little to show for those we have already spent with infraructure. forget republicans crying foul they are not saying boo no wonder the tea par is boiling. now meee 80 partier who does not take this lying down. the big rush to give up the fight and will likely kep losing elections as a result

their folding one after another. this is completely will not work in their favor they are afraid to be called obstructionists that is almost laughable if i were a republican right now with the leadership position in that building i with rocks that obstructionist label and wear it for all it is worth but they cower because they don't want to be called names. but they will and i will be sure because this kind of behavior is what is wrong. tech on another $56 billion for grand kids? neil: an issue from the debt commission share said yesterday he is listed. >> it is alice in wnderland and it gets worse every day because this president will

fail as the president his legacy is impiled if he does not do something. neil: butith the doing it with those who are hanging their hats on health care expding but have you noticed his poll nbers? they are beginning tmove up some babies casting fortunes and then giving up spending resolve. >> for republicans to sa i am disappointed does not sell any more. so that the digest statement as when i will spend as ch as 5.back up whenever debt and don't worry about any of responsible budget a and hand it to my children. but they get away with this because the republicans don't say anything.

they just keep raising via debt ceiling that i prefer to call the ted they say it is not our fault but obamacare has effectively to poin the finger at the republicans and they tower in the of corner. they have a job to do. say no to ridiculous spending. neil: spending money that you don't have is wrong. always aleasure. did r republicans asked for this spending? the farm bill, and on and without a single attachment is it any wonder they keep going for the dollar? my next guest is wondering of former republican and wisconsin governorn form hhs secretary is years you have to wonder about the logic that they are using

now to avd rocking the boat evens they sign on to more spending? >> absutely. the truth is that the only good thing about the $56 billion tax increase budget battle, puts forth his $22 billion less than the last failed budget. it goes no place ahead, nowhere, the dead on arrival, the spokesperson for the white house said it is a political document but the repubcans have to show leadership. but like the person befo has indicated that people out here are wondering what will te place. they understand working between eight and 10 hours a day they cannot spen money they don't have. republicans need to put a

stake in the ground but o is fiscally respoible? neil: you hit the nail on the hea ryan cousins of logic of the leaders to say we don't want another government shut down to be the obstructionist but the danger thinking health ca will be germane in november y have to hope that continues to be the case the president's numbers are taking up and now the health care law is stilizing. not that it is great or he is a great president but americans -- republicans have given up with the hope that they will get their way in november. i think they are eating their cake and a little too early to. >> if they don't stand up than nobody will.

it is their dna. that is what the republican party stands for fiscal responsibility that is what we're asking for. they don't like obamacare. is a failure. they want to make sure they don't pay grab to this country to put off on our sons and daughters and grandchildren. people are thirsty for a leadership they want republicans to be accountable with washington. neil: but they say they get mixed messages below and behold when they have the cost of living increase then no, no, no. some republicans fear they are in electrocuted. what is your advice? >> be strahtith the american people. the entitlement programs are out of line, we cannot afford them or continue to raise the debt over

$17 trillion. we will bankrupt this country it is time somody says so to get the people behind us. they have to dt day in and d day out and not wait for somebody else. they have to do it. neil: tommy thompson. former governor thank you. one way to not get young people on your side. >> the truth is young people are knuckleheads.

blanket, civil immunity for massive, pervasive illegal conduct relating to inflating the subprime mortgage bubble that caused the crash in 2008, which was the largest crash since 1929 and it caused the worst economy sips the great depression. neil: who caused that? are you saying jpmorgan did or the government looking the other way? >> there is plenty of blame to go around but cerinly the crisis was caused by pervasive, fraudulent, illegal, and sometimes criminal conduct by the too big to fail banks on wall street. neil: on that point, i don't mean to jump on you because that is crucial point. the banks say, and jpmorga says, punishment mete the out, 13 billion more than enough, leave us alone. >> and you're right. that's what they do say and what we're saying is, cutting a back-room deal that isecret between the executive branch and the biggest, most politically-connected powerful bank in the unit states, jpmorgan chase, with no acuntability or oversight is

notermissible under our form of government. better markets is often called the wall street watchdog but we're also a government watchdog. we believe there has to be accountability on wall street and washington, d.c. and the way to get that is require the department of justice to submit this settlement to a federal court and l's see if i it withstands the scrutiny of the light of day for the american people. neil: you know, i would sooner think get government upon us to find out this money earmarked to shareholder relief and tho who were burned and relief for them, that actually goes tohat intended purpose. i doubt that very much. >> well, it is actually not even all for that. $2 billion was a penalty -- neil: that's right. >> paid to the u.s.reasury. but, neil, ask yourself, if jpmorgan chase had 300 or $400 billion in liabilities do you think a $13 billion settlement would be very much? it wouldn't even be a slap on the wrist. neil: what would be? what would be? >> well we don't know any of the facts. we do not know how much money

jpmorgan chase made from its illegal conduct. we don't know how much investors lost. we don't know how much liabilities at stake. the department of justice didn't not even disclose which laws they alleged jpmorgan violated, who violated them or h. neil: all right. >> they constructed this deal to conceal, not real to the americ people. so what they're trying to do is sell this as being tough on wall street en providing no one, including the american public, any information tha they can judge for themselves. better markets we believe in transparency and aountability to the american people. until the america people have enough information to judge for themselves, there is no reason we should be trusting them. neil: dennis keller, thank you very, very much. >> thanks, neil. neil: switching gears ever so slightly. see this kate upton video. some viewers think we're way overdoing it. guess what, apparently nine out 10 of you think we are not overdoing it enough. tit-for-tat on the story we continue to shamelessly milk.
