america began to build up its military. many adult americans remembered the hardships caused by inflation during the unregulated economy of world i. the cost of living then spiraled up more than 100%. every worker and resource was precious. military and civilian needs competed with no referee but the price system so prices shot higher. as another and potentially greater war approached president roosevelt prepared to initiate price controls. but the job of planning and controlling the economy was anything but easy. the roosevelt administration chose john kenneth galbraith for the job. we had a couple of dozen people and the task of taking charge of all the prices in the economy. in my more mature years, i would have been appalled. at that time i thought the right man had been selected for the right job. how does one select which prices to control? the original idea was to control those prices where the war had brought something into very short supply. then we'd ration. we'd let the market take care of other prices, keeping demand equal to supply. that proved totally impossible. one had to control all prices, and we did. price co

by the turn of the 20th century, america was the largest industrial nation in the world. american had the most robust economy man had ever known. i want you to think about had they never made a decision, what if that generation had not embraced the opportunities of that time and confronted the challenges? what would the 20th century have looked like? how would world war ii have ended? not well. the cold war? not well. i wonder what would my life had been like. that would not have been a place like america for my parents to go to. i told the story many times because to me it reminds me every single day of how unique this nation is. throughout all of human history, almost everyone who has lived has lived in a society that told you, you can only go as far as your parents went before you. whatever your family did, that is what is left. here, that has not been the case. my parents understood. my father lost his mother when he was 9 years old, and he worked for the next 70 years of his life. my mother was one of seven girls raised in rural cuba by a poor family, with the disabled father. they had dreams when they

the broader internet economy and its cultural economy. what i would say i think there is an exaggerated sense of the poor quality of american broadband. americaoes better in broadband than some people think. having said that though, i do like the korean model. i myself have no problems with public investment in broadband in the same way as i tell the story in the internet is not the answer. the internet came out of government investment. it came down as a top-down project. so i'm, i am not an opponent of public investment in things like broadband. cspan: i wanted to ask you also the political question about this the president using this device the day before a speech. he i think he is first president that has ever done this. i found online, there ace whole list of people at the white house, like cory shulman the director of online engagement for the office of digital strategy, makes $73,000 a year. ashley, her title is, creative director for the office of digital strategy. jesse lee director of progressive media and online response. see if i've -- >> guest: what is difference between progressive media and regular media? cspan: i don't know bu

the top ten wealthiest counties in america were in and around washington, d.c. i don't know about you but most of us as americans we believe be grow the economy in cities and towns and villages across this great country that people create jobs not the government. we got a president, people like hill who seem to think you measure success in government by how many people are dependent on the government former secretary of state hillary clinton actually gave russia a re-set button. >> it's the liberal progressive world view of barack obama and hillary clinton and eric holder and all the other people who want to take the guns out of the hands of the good guys in the hands of the law abiding citizens. >> here we go. hillary's a gone grabber and so is obama. scott walker talking about jobs? we could do an entire show on how he has failed to create them in the state of wisconsin. here's what i think hillary has to do. focus on the positives because the country knows where we were and where we are now. i think she has to run on the economy and just tell us what her plan is going to be for the economy. and also on obama care. look there's no perfect world when it comes t

the global economy at our shores. we have been to be in there and compete and write the rules so we have a level playing field. when we do products made in america services provided by american firms are the best in the world. and i will continue to make that argument and for those who argue this is contrary to the interest of working families what i tell them is my whole presidency texas presbyterian hospital about helping working families lifting wages and giving more opportunity. i didn't get elected because of the sponsorship of the business table or the chamber of commerce. the reason i am doing this is because i know this is an important thing to do and i know it send a signal throughout asia we are out there competing and we will help maintain international rules that are fair for everybody and not so tilted in favor of one country that it ends up being bad for not only our commercial prospects but other countries over the long term. that was a very long answer. sorry mateo. >> very briefly the position in greece is not the position in europe and not the 2011 is not same. it is different time but we must absolutely strongly work to achieve an agreement. not all of the

if we can have a vibrant economy, if we can equip people with the skills they need, if we can reengage america and its leadership, the 21st century will be in american century. i believe that all of my heart. these things will not happen on their own. it reminds us that the election will not be a choice about what laws are going to pass, whether it is going to be republican or democrat. 2016 as a referendum on our identity. what kind of country do we want to be? to be want to remain special aura be prepared to become like everybody else? tonight, my wife and children are in orlando. i wish i was there. although i am happy to be here with you. [laughter] i make that point because when you make the decision to run for president, you realize you will be away from home. there are days he will not be there. there are tournaments he will miss. what a lobby to make the decision to run is that this election is about them as much as anybody else. my children's generation is the most important generation in history. they will either be the freest or most prosperous americans, or the first to inherit a diminished country. it reminds me of all my parents did fo
