we brought in john stossel. john, what do you think? donald trump spoke briefly.tion in the closer we get to it the better i feel personally and all the noise starts to fade away a little bit >> i feel great. i didn't like the guy. i still don't trust him. but these first appointments, i'm excited about hopeful change for the first time in years. charles: what's the part you don't trust? >> he doesn't read books. he doesn't think things through. he's reckless and narcissistic. and he may do something bad. he may wreck the economy with a raid war charleswar charles: nominee after nominee pushed back against some of the trump doctrine whether on trade or russia. does that make you feel better? the idea he would even select people who weren't necessarily sycophants who achieved enormous success on their own. none of them needed this. none of them are career politicians. generals, ceos. i think they will push back if they have to. john: i'm still in the infatuation phase. i'm so happy hillary is not going to be with us for four years charles: that's one thing everyone

. ♪ ♪ >> and now, john stossel. john: are you for social justice?t to say i am because if i'm not, wouldn't that mean i'm for social injustice? that sounds terrible. it's why social justice is such a powerful slogan. it usually means, well, i'm not clear exactly what it means. it can mean so many things. jonah goldberg explains that in this video for prager university. >> ask ten lib calls to tell you -- liberals to tell you what they mean by social justice, and you'll get ten different answers. that's because social justice means anything its champions want it to mean. social justice is code for good things no one needs to argue for and no one dare be against. john: except me. excuse me, i want to be against it, because those sweet words, social justice, really mean the state gets to use force to take money from some people, give it to somebody else, and also it gets to boss everybody around even more. >> the self-declared champions of social justice believe the state must remedy and remedy all perceived wrongs. anyone who disagrees is an enemy of

david: john stossel, we have gone through the list of state by state, how much money is spent by governments. most of the money for education comes from state governments. but the feds have been putting in increasingly more and more money. average is $13,000 a year. some states like new york is $20,000. washington, d.c. is $18,000 a year. here is the big question. you are kid gets, say, $13,000 a year for education. don't you think as a parent you can do better with that money than the government has been doing? is that a fair question? >> yes, i wish people would ask it more. $13,000 ferp kid times 22 kids in a courtroom. that's $300,000 plus dollars. that's not capital costs, that's just annual expenditures. but the government is tep team squanders if the money. david: the average cost of private school education in the united states $10,000. john, as you point out before, the government would save money if people spent their vouchers. john: if you start giving vouchers to every poor person, you are also reaching the people who pay for catholic schools right now out of their own pocket. bu
