10:01 am
in the green sector that should have been ripe for jobs since we have so much stimulus. and the wind sector alone lost 10,000 jobs since 2009. and if we do this, it will be more of the same and we'll spiral down ward and not up ward. >> it is a problem too much stimulus or not enough. >> the problem is, gary, god bless him is sounding european right now. we have a lot of austeer thinkers in europe and they drosedrove those economies in recession. the bailouts that bush and obama put in prevented a terribly depression. i am not happy with the job growth. i would rather have our position than europe where they tried austerity and it isous. we could put in big projects
10:02 am
and cutting way back on spending would make things worse. >> you know, gary, i will let toby smith stick up for you. i know calling you europeans is it a fighting word. >> i have called him irish. and what are it is issues with europe. they had a financial crash because they completely overpent and put up a system they couldn't afford and we are on that same trajectory the negative spending is making people come to terrible conclusions. we'll have terrible inflation and someone will have to pay for this. and the job creators are the ones that are holding back and that is what is holding us back. and they think we are out of whack here. we'll get back to the stimulus issue. and jon as, you think that right now we are swimming in stim tim already. it is kind of in the eye of
10:03 am
the beholder, isn't it? >> that's right. we did have stimulus. more than any other country. we are not in a recession which is great. but you don't need to start a stim tim program. we are not in a recession. now why can bicker about how it was spent. and could be more job creator. we are doing better and they had a big stim tim program. >> you are right about that. and the president could have done more things. we are in a recession and need more stimulus. this economy is in need of organic growth and it is not there right now. what else is it going to be. soup liance or government to get involved. >> you want the government to
10:04 am
spend more money. >> brenda, i am not a fan of this. but it needs to be done. the economy is in desperate needs and the job's report has us in 1.7 gdp. third quarter, we'll be in a recession. we don't have people working and consumer confidence is done. >> you are doing a helpful a job. >> and gary, mr. european you take him on. >> i can understand his view point the lefty he is. but who invited todd back. >> what happened to him. >> and look. i think it is it a simple equation. todd makes the point we should spin more. i am not saying the money shouldn't be spent. why can't the private sector spend it. we are transferring it from one group to another. you are assuming that the government can spend it somehow better or more efficiently.
10:05 am
we have seen that. wait a second. we have seen it can't with the green sector and solyndra and let the private sectork. >> i got it. you are right. but look at quarterly earnings. ther looking at three percent earnings growth. but bottom line they do go out and spepped they are going to show negative earnings growth. i am not a fan. but something has to be done and it is it not happening from the private sector or american consumer: >> we say wait a minute. if i am going to center inflation and this doesn't stop the some point. we'll wait until something happens and that uncertainty and lack of confidence is what is hurting our jobs. it is out of control spending.
10:06 am
>> it is a great point. and the proof is there. that the count rows who didn't cut it. and it is it all the way from ireland and going to grease and france. they cut it too soon. they were not clever but we are not in a recession? we did a great job. you say spend more i think i have a way to do this that makes gary happy. he's right. the ben bernanke. there are -- that's right. 57 million children between the ages of 5-18 we talk about how we don't want to borrow. let them spend the money.
10:07 am
i am an atm for my kid that's not the way to do it i am a believer in the private sector and i think that our economy is completely than the european countris and we do things differently here it will not be as negative as my fellow panelist point out. you have to unwind the balance event. you need americans to do their own. the white house hand out. the casuto. >> and that is provided by the communities. >> and we have more than that
