the six waltons that, that are the main waltons, they are the six richest people in this country. and yet what drives me crazy is the government doesn't do anything about it, you know? one of the incidents right now that's going on that's driving me up a wall is wal-mart made this big deal about hiring the veterans. these men and women, they rest their lives -- they risked their lives for their country and wal-mart is offering them jobs. well, the jobs that they are offering our part-time jobs because wal-mart doesn't hire full-time employees anymore. they are offering them part-time jobs, and they are offering them poppy wages. these men and women risked their lives for the country, and that's what wal-mart has to offer them. >> and they got a great publicity. so anyway, you know, it is unions, announced a few weeks ago, unionization rate is at the lowest point in 97 years. who is going to stand up and fight for this? it's a very difficult situation. and that's why over two generations i think we see this, if businesses can get away with it, they will get away with it. at the sam

i was an outside director, and december of 76 and frank walton, the president of heritage reminded the board to take a two year commitment as president of heritage and he wanted to go back to california. not bad. and that was something else. posted reagan california, this economy, frank, why would you want to do that? it involves heritage since the first day but did take over heritage instead of moving your family. i think linda was happy all photius the new yorker. totally missed the inside story. >> made the decision. >> and here we are. [applause] >> the funny thing was as you recounted in this book, anthony fisher's attorney was a very prominent new york attorney, 26 floor of the old pan am building and his name was william casey as n ronald reagan, the cia. i have gone up with anthony fisher and we were close to signing on the dotted line. five years later, six years later, our father and i go out to a supersecret office of the cia and ask about their heritage for our tenth anniversary, bill casey looked very spurned, and across the desk, all right, that far out of the field. so k

and frank walton, who was then the president of heritage, reminded the board that he had made a two-year commitment to come in as president of heritage and that he wanted to go back to coronado, california. >> can't blame him for that. >> well, not then. [laughter] too many people want to move into california these days, but this was meadly post-reagan -- immediately post-reagan. california's economy was booming, and it was wonderful. frank was going to leave, and he said, feulner, why would you want to start a new one when you've been involved with heritage since the first day? why don't you just take over heritage from frank and instead of moving your family to new york and all the rest that's involved. so that's kind of how it evolved. i think linda was happy that we didn't have to move, although she is a new yorker natively, and she'll give me hell for telling this inside story right -- >> well, i think everybody here today is happy you made that decision. >> and here we are. >> stayed in washington d.c.

walton, massachusetts, sort of a small town, police force.understand they asked massachusetts police to step in to offer them help. which is routine. that's what happened when you have a police department who doesn't have the resources. so it's unclear if they didn't get around to questioning tamerlan tsarnaev or whether it was just a stone that was not looked at. >> deb, i appreciate the update. it's been a time of heal. not only in boston but a texas town of west where a fertilizer plant exploded last week and killed many people. many of them first responders. coming up next, a man who was an i-witness to both tragedies. he survived the boston bombings and was in west when the explosion occurred. >>> and tals the man accused of sending letters to president obama laced with ricin. the charges are dropped. what he is saying now and what law enforcement is saying now coming up. have hail damage to both their cars. ted ted is trying to get a hold of his insurance agent. maxwell is not. he's on geico.com setting up an appointment with an adjuste

sam and bud walton founded walmart. their heirs and the next generation, between the two of them they had five children and one daughter-in-law and these six individuals now have a greater combined net worth than 100 million americans, the bottom third of our country. again, it is not the waltons fault. it is the results of the policies that are producing this pattern. and inequality is growing in europe, japan. inequality is growing in china, india. one of the reasons, again, the emergence of outsourcing and robo sourcing, but it gives us in macroeconomics challenge, and let me explain what i mean by that. since the early part of the 20th century, since henry ford doubled his employees and since mass advertising started stimulating demand the manufacturing, we have had a consumer demand economy so that the middle-class his wages and salaries so that they can keep the economy going. the consequences of growing inequality extends beyond just the fact that it offends our sense of fairness and it is contrary to we think ou

and on that basis, the republican chairman of the republican campaign committee, greg walton, gets theypocrite of the year award from this perspective at least and speaker boehner and congressman ryan and other conservatives must be embarrassed and should be asking him to resign because he is criticizing president obama for doing what speaker boehner, ryan and other conservatives have asked him to do for several years which is start the road towards entitlement reform. he is saying that is an attack on seniors. what hypocrisy. rick: well, let's give people a little bit more information on what congressman walden said because he is upset with the president's budget. he said it is an attack on senior citizens and he says it is basically, well we have a statement from congressman walden and from his supporters who say, the chairman walden supports the budget passed by house republicans that preserves and protects medicare and social security while also balancing the budget in 10 years. he disagrees with president obama's political plan that hurts current seniors just so he can pay for mor

sam walton got his start at jcpenney. there's a lot of resillal good will to go for it. pretty sure mike would have found a way of not having to get rid of. maybe that's good for him coming back. he's more leveraged to something working out. i wonder if he got it back to where it was when they still thought it needed a turn around, that would be a huge success. but what -- when you lose 28% in the same-store sales number, you would need to go up 40%? i haven't done the math, but what would be considered a success? if he got it anywhere close to writ was when johnson took other, it would be an incredible turn around. that's going to be hard. >> it will be. you have low benchmarks, it is probably comforting that somebody doesn't have to worry about matching soaring market expectations. last week in office he was up 10%, 15% on same-store sales. he's been able to bring it up before. i think that it's a pretty encouraging future for jcpenney under mike, but he's not going to staere 20 years, 10 years. it will probably be a couple of years. he doesn't need the job. he's in th

amazing group of girls and the winner kerry walton. she is the new cherry blossom queen.ou have seen it, it is spectacular. >> congrats to her. >> absolutely. >> maybe adjusting ourselves for a cool down. >> you had a decent p night to do it but mark tamayo is telling us what to expect today. >> gusty winds and complaints in the center about the winds and they will be even stronger as we head into your monday. as far as the latest. live storm tracker two, there are clouds and few showers. the showers could be moving in to parts of the region. mostly in the form of sprinkles and something we will be watching. >> as far as current numbers across the state. it is 27 degrees in truckee and in the bay. it is cold here. upper 30s and 40s. to 50 degrees. you can see napa checking in. as far as wind speeds. it is not yet. five to 15 miles an hour. and we will be changing later on. >> winds easily approaching 35 miles an hour. >> forecast high is to the upper 60s. warmest locations around 70 degrees. it kicks up in the ballpark for the ike oakland as. this is for the first pitch j

it's right up there with the walton family giving $1.2 billion to the crystal bridges museum and the1990. those paintings now probably worth two or three times that. lauder was a great classic painting collector, paintings he collected over more than 40 years. these are some of the great works from picasso, george brock. and it shows that, you know, most of the great art today is either in museums like the met or it's in the hands of private collectors who are now in their 70s and 80s. and the big game for these museums is who can get what. you know, you bet that some other museums would've loved to have this collection. it was a big win for the met. >> robert, you know, i'm going to want the dirt on all of this. hopefully now you're going to be prepared whenever i do this. but he gets to write off how much? he gets to write off $1 billion, does he not? >> reporter: well, it's kind of interesting. i was looking at this deduction limit that obama was proposing. >> well, you've got to do it now. >> well, let's say -- well, if it's capped at 28%, it's a difference of about $100 million.

today one family, the walton family, owners of walmart, own more wealth than the bottom 40% of the american people. one family, more wealth than the bottom 40%. today, mr. president -- and this is really a remarkable fact, which of course we don't talk about too much, and that is the top 1% of americans own 38% of all financial wealth. well, let's guess what the bottom 60% of the american people own? top 1% owns 38% of the wealth. the bottom 60% owns 2.3% of the wealth in america. now, that is really a rather remarkable and disturbing fact. today, as warren buffett has pointed out, the 400 richest americans are now worth a record-breaking $1.7 trillion, more than five times when they were worth just two decades ago. meanwhile, according to a june 2012 study from the federal reserve, median net worth for middle-class families dropped by nearly 40%. from 2007 to 2010. that is the equit len equivaleng out 18 years ago of sakes for the average middle-class family. that is distribution of wealth. that is incredibly unequarks incredibly unfair, and getting worse and worse. something that we might
