stealing toe -- something we have been talking about, and not something we expect will abate anytimecould have the philosophical conversation -- is it the right level, should it be higher, and that, alone, is fine, but the reality is wage pressures are here. we expect they will continue to build. again, not to the point where it will change the consumption dynamic and united states. we are still looking at 2.5% of consumption for the next year or two, but it is enough to continue to, sort of, support the narrative. tom: greg peters says you are right, but he says with it we will see an inflation left. that ahave confidence nominal level of wages will stay out front of rising inflation, or do we have a real risk of flat real wages? tom p.: we do inspect that inflation pressures will build it we do not think they will build to such an extent that it will take a bite out of the economy -- would you mean by that -- at the core level we expect coursey pi to cover 2.3%, and that is something we would expect over the balance of the year. it is hard to build a case for materially higher infl

about the large tax remittencesly importers which seems to be a big political concern today would abate. retailers have those same large tax remittences under credit invoice vats around the world. and again nobody blinks at that. there's other advantages i guess i could list too. frankly, there's a lot to be said about that. it would also be wto compliant, of course. so if people really do dislike the v word, i think you could avoid the v word. i'm not sure why the v word is to toxic. we saw ted cruz and rand paul and paul ryan and his original road map all propose value added taxes that they didn't call value added taxes. they were all called business something taxes. yeah, i think you could easy he do the vat and call it whatever you wanted. >> you know, i spent two years trying to develop a value added tax for the then ranking democratic member of the ways and means committee, sam gibbons, who was firmly convinced that a value added tax to replace the current income tax is the way to go. and it was one problem after another. if you don't care about progress tifty, it's a very efficie

and broadband providers must provide simple and persistently abatable means for customers to exercise their privacy choices. and third, broadband providers are required to take reasonable measures to protect customers' information from unauthorized use, disclosure or access. they must also comply with specific breach notification requirements. in other words, if somebody has busted the internet and stolen all this information from a site, don't you think that you ought to be notified that your personal information was hacked? well, that's one of the requirements. so then i ask my colleagues what in the world is wrong with requiring broadband providers to give their paying customers clear, understandable and accurate information about what confidential and potentially highly personal information these companies collect, what is wrong about getting their consent to collect that information from their subscribers? what is wrong with telling customers how their information is collected when they use their broadband service? what's wrong with telling customers with whom they share this sen

whereprotracted abates, proponents of the standards hammered away at the laws tubman , became a hotbedor critics. she became a whipping girl for political correctness. but even as pundits bickered she , continued to blossom with an pop culture. artistic representations of harriet are manifold. one of my favorite remains some of these images of harriet done by jacob lawrence in his famous series. public art is impressive and a measure of her growing presence, especially in statues. a tribute to her partnership was erected -- in delaware, erected in 1993. a group portrait in battlefield, michigan in 1994. and by the way, battlefield, , michigan was sojourner truth's home. african-americans to freedom in boston in tubman 1989. with a child in little rock. tubman exhorting in bristol, pennsylvania, a 2006 statue. and tubman in manhattan in 2008, on the corner of saint nicholas and frederick douglass avenue. there is a bust outside the sailor them chapel in canada that was set up in 2010. and the markers -- there are much too many markers for me to keep track of, but it was a particular tri

janet yellen saw to reassure investors that the rate increase was not to abate fears.ow, our kathleen hays continues with our coverage here. were you surprised by this lack of a hawkish tilt? a little surprising. but when you look into the data they are more confident about their three to four rate hikes forecasted this year than they were in december. that is despite the fact the forecast in this -- is the same. the economy is performing at what the fed. it would. so it can act now on the idea that it will raise rates. -- this is something it failed to do in recent years. we see it come to fruition, in reality. kathleenwitters to covering the fed conference for us, you raised some issues with janet yellen about, is the economy doing that well? let's dig into the numbers. i know you dug into that with her. you alyssa did this response from yellen. there is noise always in the data from quarter to quarter. but we have to change our view of the outlook. we are on the same path. we have not boosted the outlook, faster growth. we think we are moving along the same course w

about the large tax remittances of importers which is one of the big political concerns today would abate, because the retailers have the same remittances and the credit resource vats around the world, and nobody blinks at that, and other advantage, too, and there is frankly a lot to be said about, that and also wto compliant of course. and if people really do dislike the v-word i think that you could taifd v-word. i am not sure why the v-word is so taxic. we saw ted cruz and rand paul, and before that herman cain, and actually back to 2011 paul ryan and all of them propose the value-added taxes that they did not call them that. it is called the business-something taxes, and it is always the business something. and so i think that you could easily do the vat, and call it whatever you wanted. >> yes, i think that i spent two years trying to develop a value-added tax for the then ranking democratic member of the ways and means committee, gibbons, who was firmly convinced as the people on the pabl that the value-added tax to replace the current income tax is the way to go. and it is one prob

tomorrow evening we start windy but quite quickly the gales will abate, it will still be a windy daycarol. thank you very much. and happy st david's day to you as well. see you in half an hour. we've heard about the government's industrial strategy this morning we'll hear about a new digital strategy. ben's got the details. it's not just about it's notjust about how it's not just about how we it's notjust about how we compete with other countries but it is also about getting as online. a little later this morning the government will launch their digital strategy, basically a big set of targets for where it sees our economy moving in the future. included in it is further detail of £1 billion worth of funding for superfast broadcast and 5g mobile networks announced six months ago. but also a commitment to train four million people in so—called digital skills, everything from banking online, to coding and will be backed by firms like bt and google. let's talk to karen bradley, secretary of state for the department of culture, media and sports. good morning to you. i touched on the idea

i will say quickly that the perception of soviet strategic advantage did not abate over time. in particular even in the second administration, at the end of the administered and where he had it coming online with the soviet ss 24's. intelligence estimate on december 1 set the large cost of production for new strategic weapons and the fact that such reduction facilities cannot be readily converted to civilian uses mean that gorbachev's industrial modernization goals almost certainly will not have a major effect on strategic weapons to employment there the mid-1990's. i would close by saying although the reagan administration went to great link to play up the ferocity of soviet forces in the 1980's in publications like the soviet military power, which had an overlay of the soviet tank factories on the national mall, it did not fundamentally misrepresented soviet strategic capabilities. on firstat assessment and foremost the treaties on imf at the start. if you triangulate the figures and numbers and then look back to what the administration was saying about the soviet capabiliti
