tom: on this historic day, it is wonderful to spend a few minutes with alice rivlin.iscal economics but as of her vice-chairman of the fed, alice rivlin understands the import of this date. you are on the record as saying when they raise rates does not really matter. yellen,that for janet can she look at one america or is in a quality so large now that janet yellen is forced to look at two americas in our analysis? -- in her analysis? >> inequality is a growing problem in america. i don't think much of what janet is thinking about at the moment as she looks at the rate increase -- i want to congratulate you guys. you have managed to arouse an awful lot of suspense about a move that i think is pretty much a foregone conclusion and better telegraphed that almost any move the fed has made. tom: i'm going to start crying . this is fantastic at you have done this. we try to make it as suspenseful as we can. what will you listen for in the press conference of today does not matter? not say today does not matter. i think they will raise today and i think it's the right thing
