i do actually have that now it's interesting because i work also at the graduate school at new york university and so part of my benefit is i'm able to get to additional mission but because even though the university isn't charging me to mission i come at a low complicated because the federal government considers my value of my education and then well you is an expensive school as income and so i need to take loans because the government will take taxes out of my salary as if he had the value of tuition at new york university and so by the time i graduate i will have are over approximately forty thousand dollars just to be able to make up the difference of what the government has taken back from a benefit and in the meanwhile this is going to school for free at n.y.u. is forty thousand dollars and that the trick of course is when interest rates accruing you don't know forty thousand dollars and it's very. which is why her math on student debt is so confusing for people to understand. it's very hard to know what you think and what you owe and how you manage it but of course so once you graduate

on the other side of the story, bruce boinasketa is professor of politics at new york university. welcome. richard, when you were in government, would you find that there was an election? let's say sarkozy loses. will it make a difference? >> actually, it will. mr. sarkozy is running as though he wants to change france into germany and given the situation in europe right now, this might be an election that does matter. mr. hollande would implement 10 or 20% of what he's saying, it would make a difference. it would matter more than an election in a mature democracy would matter. >> anne-marie? >> i think he might want to do all of those things but i'm more worried about friends in german politics. i think the eu depends on france and germany and france and germany depend on the eu continuing. >> the issues you're talking about is hollande is proposing first a very, very large role for the state than france has? >> yes. >> 75% tax rates. and also proposing that the french get out of the business of this partnership with germany in forcing discipline on southern europe? >> yes. >> yo

ongoing dispute we turn to the director of the democracy program at the center for justice at new york university law school, and manager of the civil justice report initiative at the heritage foundation. he served in the justice department during the george w. bush administration. welcome to you both. hans, i would like to ask you whether this change we're watching, this shift we're watching in this debate is part of a converted effort we should be following. >> well, i think there's a converted effort on the part of the justice department to try to keep these voter id laws from going in place. i think they're doing that without the facts to support it and also they are ignoring legal precedent. their own legal precedent and in fact court decisions that have found that these kind of voter id laws are not discriminatory. >> ifill: so you're saying the concerted effort is not on the part of the legislature but to enact these whrawz but on the part of the federal government to stop them. >> yes, i think on the part of federal government. now we do know statesre interested in this but while many rep

he was at new york university. there was this post-modern deconstruction missed journal printing all these academic articles that didn't make sense to him. so he decided to write a parity of the articles and make all sorts of our greatest claims regarding physics and social sciences like basically how feminism contributed to the concept of equality among mathematicians and things like that the. the thing got published. it says something about academia that something like that would get published. it should have been a reality check and the law professors said -- they shouldn't have gotten mad of invasion of the matter themselves. they got mad at the guy pulling the franc which makes it even funnier. when someone gets a prank london and they get mad at the prankster it is always more funny. >> thank you. there any recent book holder collections that put those about -- charles mary speaks to a part of fish tone and people who don't have more than a high school degree. a lot of bright people in that country. you think

>> we had a rally today at new york university. we're working the country. running for president. there will be other good people run too. you have already said it's not well known. but shows like yours and dylan's give us a chance to explain if you want another choice, you can get on buddyroemer.com or americanselect.org and see how to do this. it's open to every voter. you don't have to change parties. you don't pay a fee. you go through a little sign up operation that takes about five minutes. and you could pick a president free to lead. now other people who will run, and there will be plenty of people running, won't have my issue. they won't be reform candidates. and i will make my case across the country that we need a reform candidate before we can do budget reform, tax reform, immigration reform. we must do political reform. i think washington is bought and sold. >> tell us a little more about what you think on campaign finance reform. obviously, a huge theme of dylan's show. i saw you on "morning joe" the other morning talking about a goal or aspiration of a million voters

of kaiser health news and joining me from chicago is richard epstein a professor of law at new york university. i'm pleased to have them here. i first want to address this one question for each of you and i'll start from left to right with walter dellinger. how important is this supreme court case? walter? >> well, you know, the answer to that is twofold, charlie. because it would be of enormous consequence if the court were to told that this regulation that affects one seventh of the economy is outside the scope of congress's power to regulate commerce among the states. that would be, in my view, an extraordinary holding. if the court holds-- as a couple conservative judges did below, like judge silverman and judge sutton that of course it's a regulation of commerce or as others have argued it's a regulation of inevitable commerce of people that will engage in health care. it's a very limited ruling and i don't think it would be of great consequence. it's only the thought that the court might strike this down that makes it seem like a big case. >> rose: jeffrey toobin? how big a deal is this?

these so-called singletons are the focus of a new book by eric kleinenberg, a sos yolgs at new york university. "going solo, the extraordinary rise and surprising appeal of going alone." well, from all those nbers it's obvious something's happening. what? >> well, my view that this is the biggest social change of the last 507 or 60 years that we have failed to name or identify. it's not just that so many americans are unmarried but that people are living alone for long stretches of their lives. >> suarez: but so many people get there in different ways. >> that's right. the. >> suarez: there are people just starting out, finishing college and living on their own. people who are perhaps just divorced and perhaps didn't inend ever live alone b find that they are. people who are widowed. and, of course, a group of people who are living alone and liking it. with all these different roads to getting there, is there anything that we can say about this very diverse group of them? >> absolutely. one thing we can say is that people who live alone are opting to do so. now they might not aspire to be on t

all of the solo folks out there, joining us is elin kleinenberg, a professor of sociology at new york universityhe author of "going solo: the extraordinary rise and surprising appeal of living alone." welcome. >> nice to be here. >> so we've got a panel of people who live solo. i'm a long married man. except for jimmy who lives with his dog apparently he doesn't count his dog which say little bit unfair to the dog. we have a picture of the dog there, in case you were wondering but we got authorities here who can interact on this. talk about this trend, because it used to be, there's been this stigma in the popular culture there was something strange about living alone for too long but it is the norm now. >> in the 1950s a bunch of psychologists studied americans' attitudes and 80% thought that single people were either sick, neurotic or immoral. times have changed. we think about this differently. about half of all adults are now single and a third of them live alone. it's a social way to live. >> and you've looked at this as a sociologist. what are the key things that you found that sort of cha

maybe one -- and i cite the new york university study in support of this. one in ten americans do not have the kind of voter id that many of these states -- new state laws contemplate. case in point. in the primary in ohio just this past week a world war ii army veteran presented himself to vote. now, he had voted for some 30, 40 years. he presented himself to vote, presented his veterans id card and was denied the right to vote saying this card does not meet the requirements of ohio law. so the consequences here are going to be broader. we're talking about voting, democracy. the constitution. we're not talking about cashing a check. we're not talking about a financial trade. we're talking about voting, democracy, a bedrock principle of the united states of america. so one in ten americans do not have the kind of photo id that many of these laws contemplate. and then one in four african americans may not have the kind of photo id that these laws contemplate. so here we are where many colleagues of mine in the civil rights movement and elected officials and o

. >> reporter: jerome wakefield is a professor at the new york university school of social work. >> basically for 2500 years, there is a tradition in which people have recognized that at times something goes wrong with people's ability to process loss or it goes wrong where they're just generating sadness in an unstoppable fashion that immobilizes them. >> people have trouble falling asleep or staying asleep. they have a change in their appetite. their energy level is low. they start to have a lot of negative thoughts about themselves like wearing a dark pair of glasses. >> reporter: more and more americans are seeing the world through those glasses. says psychiatrist richard friedman at new york's wile cornell medical college. >> the rates of depression have been going up over the last several decades in most industrialized nations. >> reporter: we're talking something like 27 million americans? >> yes. >> reporter: several studies claim rates of depression are three times today what they were just two decades ago. >> one out of ten people are taking medications. many other people are feelin

it's a true honor to be here representing the state university of new york and i really appreciate you having sunni is one of largest comprehensive universities in the world. it is an honor to serve my alma mater and an honor to be here speak together attorneys general. let me start with a word about fair use. as an intellectual property attorney who spends his days with academics, i tend to make some use of content under fair use. hopefully we can make copy right law, which some find a little bit dry, to be a little more entertaining. i see some yawning in the back already so let's get to it. if you feel it isn't fair use, feel free to speak to my lawyer, he's a very good lawyer. and if i may just pause for a second, in new york as in many other states, our office of attorneys general handle sunn's litigation. i'm not always counsel but i'm often a client as well. in new york i'm routinely bowled over by the kreeftivity, thoughtfulness and proficiency of our assistances attorneys general. speakings a somewhat frequent client, i'm a zealous part of our community. i recall the words car
