11:00 pm
>> you ready, jeff? >> i'm ready. >> all right. >> oh, dear! oh, no! whoa. stay tuned for "across america" and next week's show. if we survive it. willis. right now on "the willis report", gm recall scandal grows. the number of people killed due to the defect could be in the hundreds. also the feds crack down on for profit colleges. >> it ttec call institute we create ad different kind of education where students can learn practical, hand-on skills. >> hundreds of degree programs could be shut down. our special report, a user's guide to taxes. all your tax questions answered. we're watching out for you tonight on "the willis report."
11:01 pm
gerri: can a damning new report pushing general motors even deeper into controversy a watchdog group now linking at least 300 deaths to the recalled cars specifically because airbags didn't deploy in the crashes. joining me with the latest is the executive director at automobile nag seen. it is -- magazine. it is great to have you here, todd. thanks for bringing your expertise. a new report as we just said today, they say, not deaths in 31 accidents. it is more like 303. issues with these, these airbag deployments. what do you make of this new report? >> well i think the report is going to open up, has opened up this issue a lot further and i think the number is still kind of unknown because the report issued, lists 13 examples of deaths and it lists, it shows that those cars did not deploy
11:02 pm
their airbags but doesn't say whether the ignition was still on or not when the airbag deployed. so we don't know, we don't have a direct connection between the ignition key problem and the airbag problem. gerri: now, the center for auto safety that released these numbers said their numbers come from nhtsa. it is government data they manipulated. they hired someone to put this together for them. looking at all kinds of government data not just from nhtsa. is it faulty? >> no, i don't think it is faulty. i think it is incomplete. i think the data showed you have a number of accidents occurred when airbags didn't go off, that is, fatalities. fatalities are very emotional thing and tough to deal with. which don't know or at least from i saw from the center of automotive safety whether those airbag problems were related to the ignition key problem. gerri: but of course these are the makes and models that we've been talking about all along.
11:03 pm
the cobalts, the ions, on and on. these two makes and models in particular are the ones we're talking about. gm is saying that this information isn't relative that is to the issue of is anything switch. as knowledgeable observers know that tracks raw data, some information that went into this data without rigorous analysis it is pure speculation to attempt to draw any meaningful conclusions. they say throw this report out, it is meaningless. >> nhtsa has issued a special order do in april that general motors must respond to these, some of these issues and provide more information. i think until we get more information, we can't be sure how many of those deaths might be related to the ignition key problems. certainly there were some deaths related to that that was already released, number something like 13. and those were, the two most
11:04 pm
popular cars sold with that ignition key through general motors. there were also cars built afterward. i don't understand why gm didn't change the standard on that key, on the ignition. gerri: it would have been cheap to do so. the thing is made by delphi. could replace it for 2 to $5. >> right. gerri: instead they continued making the car making it with the same switch the same parts over and over again despite collecting all kinds of complaints from consumers. i want you to respond here, we talked about what gm said. here is what ralph nader said. he is at the center for auto safety. he co-founded it. he said the culture of timidity led by backing by the bush white house and some similar extent by the obama white house, that leads to reluctance to follow up on the evidence. what do you say to that? >> well you know, gm has special interests here. obviously it does not want to be responsible for a large number of deaths. the center for automotive safety
11:05 pm
has special interests too. it is tied with the product liability law business and, so and obviously he has got his, ralph nader has his own special interests here. gerri: what are i saying? so who is ralph nader tied in with? >> well the center for automotive safety is basically a lobbying firm for, it lobbies for, product liability lawyers. it's a it's a special interest group tied in with them. not to say that their points are not valid. just to say they have their interests. gm h its own interests and, you know, we need to have a better answer here. we need an independent investigor into this. someone outside of the government, someone outside of the cas, someone outside of general motors. gerri: a great point. i don't know who that is going to be. congress wants to do it but i don't know that they have the expertise. >> no, i don't think they do. gerri: thanks for coming on,
11:06 pm
todd, great to meet you. thanks for being with us tonight. appreciate your expertise. >> thank you, gerri. gerri: well, from the road to the sky, airlines getting more and more creative in nickel and diming passengers with fees. here with ways to avoid the fees, the found irof air fare watchdog.com. george, welcome back to the show. great to have you here. the amount of fees, that been collected and it is astonishing how much money we're talking about. billions and billions of dollars over time. 6.1 billion in baggage and reservation change fees alone. where is this going? why are they charging us so much in fees? >> well, gerri, the truth is if they didn't charge these fees the airlines would probably still be in the red. they're making a lot of money now which i guess is great if you're airline employer or airline stockholder but probably would still be losing money. when they raise fares, people stay home or drive. gerri: they can't raise fares they raise fees.
11:07 pm
problem with the fees, you never know what they are. what are the fees getting raised? >> they are surprises for a lot of people especially if you haven't flown in a while. one of the most egregious one is the pet fee which con up enormously. i understand from good authority you will have the pets on the program. i'm glad i'm not following them because, 2.50 round-trip on most air appliance to have a pet. one way to get around it, i'm not suggesting people do this illegally is to have a service animal. now it animal is service animal you don't have to pay a fee. the animal doesn't have to go in as a cage. gerri: are you saying claim your dog as service dog. >> i'm not saying anyone would do that, gerri? would you? gerri: this confuses me. third bag fees differ acrossair lines. the more bags you have more expensive it is. some folks charge 250 bucks. some folks charge 25. i'm totally confused. i don't even know what to make of it. >> there is no rhyme or reason
11:08 pm
and why should one airline charge me. virgin charges $50. some airlines charge 200, $250. there are charts on internet. google air fare watchdog has one, you will see the vast differences between some airlines. gerri: have you noticed that planes are get getting more crowded? you talk about the idea they could raise fees instead of fares. they're also crowding more people on fewer planes. >> they cut down number of seats, number of flights. part of that they're installing these extra leg room seats, call them economy plus, for example. there are fewer seats in some of the planes and fewer airlines. there are pewer seats and demand gone up of so the load factors are in the mid 80s, mid to low 80%. you will not get a middle seat in most flights. gerri: paying more for less comfort. >> also seats are not as comfortable because they are thiner. >> they are tinner. >> harder in coach. absolutely. there are ways to get around that. you can use your miles to
11:09 pm
upgrade but costs money. gerri: costs you something. so what, give me some more ideas for stretching my travel dollar especially my airline dollar. >> to avoid those fees. one fee people really don't like, making a reservation on the phone. so i do that all the tile but what i do is i get the information i need and i think thank you very much and i go to the internet to book it. so i avoid the 25 or $35 fee. gerri: you go right up to the inof saying okay, i will buy it, here is the credit card number and back out and go online? >> absolutely. perfectly legal. another fee that people, sometimes get hit with really hard if their bag is overweight or oversized. oversized means over 80 linear inmuchs. and overweight could be 51-pound. some airlines you will pay $800 round-trip if you hit both of those. gerri: wow. >> $800 round-trip. much cheaper to go to fedex or kinko's. gerri: fedex, my friend, never
11:10 pm
put them on airplane. >> cheaper and track something much better than airlines. it will cost you a fraction of that $800. that another way to save money. gerri: george, thanks for coming on. have a great weekend. >> you too, thanks. gerri: we have more coming on including get this, comedienne, adam corolla. administration is cracking down on for-profit colleges. is this a matter of white house taking matters into their own home or is it time somebody started watching out for taxpayer dollars? ♪ this is the quicksilver cash back card from capital one. it's not the "juggle a bunch of rotating categories" card.

11:12 pm
11:13 pm
gerri: a crack downon for profit colleges. the federal government proposing new rules to stop the graduates of a career training programs, that's what they call them from defaulting on their debt and getting in over their head. will this work? with more the director of education policies at the american enterprise institute. and coeditor of private enterprise and public education. rick, thanks for coming on the show tonight. let's start by talking about what some of these new rules are. graduate loan payments for example, will be capped at 20% of discretionary income.
11:14 pm
what else does the government want to do? >> for instance, a student, a graduate can't pay more than 8% of earnings towards loans. they can't pay more than 20% of discretionary income. this only applies for vocational programs at community and for-profit colleges, which makes it sound a little bit even-handed except the funny thing is community college tuition is 80% subsidized by state and local taxpayers. so community college students never need to borrow very much. this is really only directed at for-profit programs, training vocational students. gerri: well, when you dig into that, the department of education says the 72% of these for profit schools as you're describing earn less than high school dropouts. they think these folks are not getting a good education and paying too much for what they get. what do you say? >> in some cases sure, they're correct. they're absolutely are some bad apples out there but there is
11:15 pm
two things. one, what for-profits are doing they're taking students that community colleges and other programs aren't serving. community colleges, when they fill their capacity, they tell folks, sorry, no space. community colleges start courses in september and again in january. if you get laid off from your job in november or march, you know, tough cookies. they will see you when the semester starts. so one of the terrific things about for-profits is they have real incentive to find ways to grow market share and serve folks who otherwise are not being served. so for-profits start new courses every month in some cases. rarely if ever turn a student away. gerri: i get your point. i think the thing the government is concerned with, and frankly concerns me too is my taxpayer dollars, of all college students, 13% are defaulting on loans, all schools. you look at for-profits its 46%. this wouldn't be concerning if some, you know, private lender out there was making the loan and it was on their back but
11:16 pm
that is not true. it is on taxpayers back. i don't like that. >> i'm with you. one interesting thing is of course it was a democrats back in 2008 -- gerri: what do we do about that? what do we do about that? don't gloss over the point. we have to have some kind of solution, right? >> great question. so one, let's keep in mind these are not apples to apples comparisons. you don't find many default out of harvard or yale or stanford not necessarily because of quality of education but because of the students they're serving. one question do we want folks to borrow and go on to college who may or may not finish their degree and benefit from it? if we want institutions to turn folks away, that's fine but recognize we're closing the door of college to some people. second thing though, really the way administration has drawn the standards to my mind is a problem. george washington law school student would i be ineligible for loans under these regs.
11:17 pm
northwestern students getting a bachelor's in journalism would be ineligible under these regs. one of the problem is completely sympathize your point, i don't like the bad apple for profits pocketing my tax dollar but i do worry about writing heavy-handed federal regulations which are going to be applied problematically. gerri: one thing the government is saying the institutions must keep default rates under 30%. here is my problem. here is my problem of the cost of education is out of control. that is the real thing here. forget private, forget public. both of them are too expensive for kid to afford. kids and families. something has to be done to bring that price down. what do you say? how do we do that? >> i think that is exactly right. it strikes me that one of the problems with bringing down the hammer on for-profits in general it is for-profits that are most cost sensitive in the space. it's for-profits that are looking to move courses online more aggressively. it is for-profit providers like
11:18 pm
straighter line that have come up with the idea of allowing students to enroll in college for $99 a month. it is not the publics that really taken the lead on this so the idea we want to deal with that absolutely -- gerri: taking on, mit, all big schools are starting to do it but it is taking a while. i just want to see that price tag come down because families just can't afford it. rick, we're running out of time here. i'm going to have to let you go. you have to come back and talk about this more some time, because it's a fascinating topic. lots and lots of layers. lots and lots of layers on the onion. thanks for coming in. >> thank you. gerri: have a great weekend. and later in the show we wrap up our user's guide to taxes with advice on how not to get audited. next funnyman, adam corolla talking about his personal experiences paying with taxes and why enough is enough with all the ridiculous rules. ♪ ♪
