guest: you are fine, you are covered.you have the va system or tri-care which fulfills the individual mandate, you have coverage and you are fine. host: the kaiser family foundation looks at the status of state actions on the medicaid expansion decision. take us back to the supreme court's decision about the affordable care act last year, what they decided about the medicaid expansion. guest: that day and every day that followed, everybody was remarking on the decision to uphold the law in general. what did you get a lot of attention right away but rightly now has is the question of whether or not medicaid can be mandatory. i think there is a lot of surprise that this came out of the decision. and now that so many states have chosen actually not to expand medicaid, the way the congress designed the medicaid expansion in its -- it was seen as a carrot dipped in a lot of sugar. the medicaid expansion of the three-year window when the fed picks up the entire tab starts january 1. people are surprised that so many states have

we are mom and pop and the majority of our agencies are owned by women. i'm eye i want to have the opportunity to say what we mean. legislator coming this year is what we are looking at at high cost of bail. yes it has to be locally controlled. we have nothing to do with this. i'm from los angeles county and let me tell you bail schedules are very high out there. but we work with the families, co-workers, and employers that want that person out of jail where they can continue to flourish in their society. the issue of -- well the pretrial is there is a misconception about which is fair and which isn't fair. i have to say for the sake of public safety, we offer a little bit of the bjs study that our statistics is true because we incorporate other people with a part of the skim in the game, if you will, the family and members and we do a better job of seeing people return to court. we don't judge, we just return them to court and make their appearances. >> there are a lot of organizations throughout the state that, you know, kind of pull their resources tog

we are tiring of this way of life and the reasons behind that are numerous and they are complex and they have been kind of grinding away for a number of years. but, the data the indicators out there, the sense of the american people who live in the suburbs we are really looking at a seismic change in how and where we live. i just thought there was a really momentous trends and one worth delving into so i did. >> host: i will be interested to hear about these indicators but first i wanted to know what inspired you to write this book to look at this momentous grand? >> guest: i caught a headline about census data showing this for housing data showing that. this sort of percolated into my radar a little bit and i thought this is interesting. there's something bigger they are so i started looking into it and it was sort of a case where every stone i turned over yielded some other fresh demonstrative fruits that something was changes that are housing preferences were changing and their migratory patterns are changing our demographics are changing. every aspect i came out and looked at. everyt

are they widely surprised? what are the reactions?> i think people are very surprised it's happening in our country and in our neighborhood. i think people think it's somewhere else in another country, another place. >> a plot in a movie or something? >> yes. and many people think it's only prostitution or sex trafficking. they are surprised at ordinary labor. >> are people willing to help or afraid to help? >> i think people are more than willing. we ask people to put the national hot line number in their cell phone. they can report suspicious behavior. >> we'll show it again at the end, 888-3737-888. >> correct. >> okay. have you been like christ, come and follow me? have people followed with you to help you? >> i think many people since i have been involved that's lot more slab ration among law enforcement, service organizations, really working together to say how do we bring an end to human trafficking, so that's a very positive note. i think there are a number of service organizations that really support victims and survivers. it

there are a lot of really good reasons. there are a lot of good things that are happening.it needs to accelerate dramatically. we do face all kinds of issues from the fiscal pressures as well as the demands that we see in our own position globally. there is a lot of competition we face at the level we have never had to address before. it requires our infrastructure to step up to the game. that is why enterprises so important. some other questions? what else is on your mind? we have an incredible panel? -- an incredible panel. up front here. let us know who you are and where you work from. i met the federal motor carrier safety ministration. it mentionedsued, the idea of sharing funding across agencies for cost-cutting purposes, which sounds very good. but we have a certain accountability force in the congress which appropriate dollars to the department and to the sub agencies for very specific purposes. addressed thet need to bring congress into this so that if we are sharing funds from our agency, the federal highway administration, for some shared issues, that we would no

they are homogenous, they are boring.you don't have to go very far to find people to come into the suburbs. this is the first time i was surprised by the amount of data that was really supporting this argument and by the movement on the behalf of the home builders to find a solution. there is so much happening right now in the home building community how to build houses we want to play with -- live with and i was surprised by that because i started with a couple of the plans i saw. i had no idea that it was happening. the more i looked, the more i found. a study after study shows the most interesting things. you know, and it all comes back to the sort of older communities built on different kind of stones being better, better for our health and happiness and relationships [chanting] our wallets and everything. so that is what was surprising to me. >> host: fantastic. thank you for the time. >> guest: thank you for having me. it's been a delight. >> that was "after words" book tv signature program leche authors of the late

we are are doing it piecemeal. it is chipping away at the cuts as opposed to big richer strategic planning, inking about this. we really do have to live with this. how do we handle this for 10 years? 2013. what we saw in we're going to start to talk about serious change in planning. >> pick it up. by the way, mckinsey cannot be lamed by governor romney's loss. -- has them polite enough has been polite net -- polite enough to not remind us that she is from georgia. this has been very well framed. some of the additional budget cuts that are now being considered i think are ok. not have the exact same view. i do not want to suggest that everything i say she would endorse. we think there are room for efficiencies. some of them are that you can congres accomplish then. they are worth doing. in the briefing that we heard last week from secretary hagel and his team, which develop some of the ideas that were also expressed by deputy secretary carter. we saw an estimate that perhaps $40 billion could be saved over 10 years

there are people who are feeding the skepticism.rumors that he is being supported by the emirates and the construction party. liberal lists and secularist are supported, it goes around and around. it is just hearsay. hearsay and rumors do move the streets sometimes. people are becoming unhappy with the government and the gnc because of the lack of productivity. people have seen the members of the gnc were failing to act according to what they expected them to do. i always tell my trainees, when they work with me, as we are, we will produce our members. we cannot bring angels while we are not angels. the verdicts are contrary to our society. we have to be with them until they learn to work according to the norms of political work. just to touch base, my major work is that civil society is really the brightest society in libya. as you know, civic activity and political parties, civic society organizations and media outlets, the only ngo's that existed were those that were charitable in nature and worked with a regime. and italy. any t

hi, how are you? dr. hart, you're laying a really heavy one on us here with this book, "high price." there's a lot i want to talk to you about. and, hopefully, raise some of the issues that people in our audience are also curious about. let me start with the title itself. what is the high price to which you refer, and who is paying that price? >> first of all, i just want to say thank you all for coming out. i know you all could be doing something on this hot day in new york. so thank you all for joining us. so "high price," what's the title? some of you all may have heard or seen some of the sort of publicity around the book. i am the first tenured african-american scientist at columbia. and when that's the case, one must pay a price. and in the book i'm saying that the price is too high. it's a hell of a toll that it takes on one, on someone, and folks who are coming up subsequently, i'm trying to show folks how we can decrease the price so we can produce other brothers and sisters who look like me if t

but there are. if i were brought to a conference for the police, we'd have a very different point of view. if i was at a conference for the district attorney we might have a different point of view . the nice thing about this program is we are going to have a job. the police are going to arrest these. the attorneys are going to prosecute their cases and the public defenders is going to defend their client and everybody gets to do their job. they are going to do it legally, ethically, but we ask more that they do it morally. so, if i'm walking down the street and i'm pulling my dog's chain or i leave my dog outside in the cold and i don't feed it and it has health problems or i kick it and make fun of it and treat it harshly, you can arrest me. but i can do that to a person and you think it's okay. i don't think it's okay. jeff got me on the phone and said i want to know more about the program and i talked to him and said this is how it works and he said what's the biggest barrier? i said we have tro

who are they? they are your friends. they are the people you like. they like environmental things, other things. these things i tried to talk to them and so have others much more powerful than i am. he was in mexico for 3 months. he had a mental breakdown. he thought he was dead. to check if he was dead he stepped out in front of a trick and the truck missed him. and his mother went day in and day out to check the bodies in tijuana and finally he wondered back and finally the lawyers at a c l u, made a case t . the government was unrepent ant. the best way to do is go to the place and look at the people and be a voice coming out as best you can and say this is what i saw and on the 5th floor, some of them well-dressed people i mentioned in my statistics go into a room to get advice as to how to handle their particular matter to question their connection to their children. and there is a woman there in the line and she thinks that her former husband molested her oldest child and he now wants custody and he has a lawyer and she doesn't. now i know what

i hope we are keeping you awake. we are going to throw some questions to these panelist and we'll have questions. just be nice and there is that mic. it's cord less. you can pull it out and move it around the crowd if you want to. yes. thanks again for coming. we'll take later. >> okay, panelist, recently for the second time senator mark, introduced last call at 4 a.m.. this would leave it to individual jurisdictions to determine whether or not they wanted to implement a 4 a.m. last call. the resolution did not make it through the committee. keeping in mind that other cities have late last calls and many foreign visitors are used to late hours. can you address the problem with last call as it relates to the problem with san francisco as it strives to compete with tourism. who would like to start? h? >> why don't you start. >> okay. having an international background and having lived in europe, i think it is paramount to the success if the future of san francisco's image that we attract a global community to come here

when we are at war it is not a punishment when so many people are dying.we do not know what is going on after bashar al-assad. we have no exit strategy. we have nothing. when i say al qaeda, i am speaking about an islamist group linked to al qaeda who could fill the vacuum after assad could be toppled. >> and talking about i question and what comes next and what could result, you wanted to add something. >> for the time being, there was a geneva convention, in october. so now if we are going to strike, striking damascus now, what is going on with geneva? are we sure with all of the groups, we fight al qaeda very much in all of these people, we have to bring these actors to the table. i fear that going to war, even if it is by some strike, it will fail. >>i see wilfried bolewski waiting, raising his hand to speak. you have the floor. >> the condition for regime change in legal terms would be as a last resort. it is the only logical conclusion to defend the entire population. against these inhuman -- >> we are not there by any means right now. >> the chairma

and who are they going after, what folks are they mentoring, or what are -- who are the people that are going to be long-term working with the establishment? and, so, i'm more interested in what the long-term relationship is between the warriors and the community, and not just we're going to build a stadium, we're going to be here, we're going to do our thing and everyone is going to go home. what does this mean long-term and how do the residents benefit and how are they connected to this great opportunity? so... >> to what degree do you feel the city should subsidize the team? >> i don't see the city subsidizing the team from my perspective, from what i've seen in terms of the deal. other than potentially the land, which they will pay for eventually. maybe not the entire amount, but i don't think there are any plans for the city to give up anything financially from my perspective. other than potentially land that wasn't going to be used in the first place. but i appreciate the fact that the warriors are focusing on private fund-raising and i prefer that they stick to that. i don't thin

john, you are on the air. john, are you with us? all right, let's move onto rod in plainview, indiana, was-- plainfield, i: two questions. i thought i heard somewhere that in the bill, the government has direct access to i think it was the insurance companies -- i don't know if you would call it bank accounts, but faster payments, claims, someone files a claim, there cannot be any denials by health insurance companies to maximize profits. can they have real-time access at the health insurance company and transferred to the doctor or -- transfer it to the doctor or the hospital? guest: there is -- the subsidy payments into directly to the-- payments would be sent directly to the insurance company from the federal government, i know of no provision that does anything to make any changes to health insurer pay the provider. that is probably company by company. guest: it is contractual. it depends on the company's agreement with doctors and hospitals, and i know of no provision where the government can intervene in the process, certainly

these are not easy. they are not inherently desirable. [cell phone ringing] the idea that we should cut the compensation is not proper phrasing. we would like to make sure that every possible benefit that can be proposed that the received. certainly wounded warriors. certainly the families of deployed soldiers. certainly troops trying to get a g.i. bill so they can transition. all these people deserve compensation that is not hindered or compromise. an example would be the prevalence of commissaries. they have plenty of walmarts and others. they are not trivially easy. they are cutting back on the compensation or at least the rate of growth of compensation for our volunteer force that has done so much on behalf of all the rest of us over the last 12 years and before. you add up all of those savings, which are more or less along the lines of what i would agree with an similar to the ideas that we had in our op ed, that is another $85 billion in savings. if you add those, we are up to about $105 billion in additional 10-year savings. the go

are with the wood play grounds and when they put those in there was ar sen nick in the wood and we seal them every year to be sure that nothing leaches out and our goal is to rid the system of those play grounds. since for all of the city wide pots of money, there will be varying degrees of community input and process, the community opportunity fund which i explained has a set application process for the playgrounds, the safety committee we are going to work closely with the stake holders in a process that we will partner on the parks alliance on to layout the criteria by which we are going to assess the play grounds, and then, slot them in based on based on that criteria and obviously $16.5 million is not enough to address all of the play grounds and however, our goal is to get all of the wood play grounds off of the book so to speak. i would be happy to go into more detail on any of the city wide pots if you want. but i will jump to the city wide park. which as i said are golden gate park and mcclarin and lake merced. we are beginning this fall, an out reach process about both lake me

we are, we are looking at levels, and at three different ways, and the one is the definition of formula retail, it does not distinguish between 12 outlets and 12,000 outlets that is one level. and in addition, the definition does not distinguish between foot prints or big box store verses maybe a small up scale boutique and so a 20,000 square foot store verses a 2500 square foot presence and the criteria are the same, regardless of the use type, and so a grocery store is considered the same way as a juice bar, for example. and or a target uses it, and we apply the same criteria to target that we would to a smaller maybe like a kate spade or a boutique type of store. >> in addition there are questions of geography and there are areas of the city that tend to serve retail needs, and regionally. like downtown, verses smaller neighborhood commercial districts and so we want to make sure that the controls make sense and the geography where they are applied. >> and grocery stores are exempt, correct? >> grocery stores are not exempt. >> oh, really? >> commissioner o'brien. >> i will make a co

there are jobs that are not easy.he reason why layoffs are older -- lower is because offices say i have no work for you. operations,d pop and the employee goes on because they are not working full time to begin with. that not counted as a layoff. host: let's get a perspective from ben casselman of the "wall street journal." absolutely is something we hear all across the country. because the job market is so weak, people who have bachelors degrees and solid work histories are being forced to take jobs they would not take in a normal economy. they are working for $9.25 an hour like the caller. they're working in part-time jobs and lower skilled jobs. that pushes down the job opportunities for people who used to do these kinds of jobs. i did a story this week that teen employment. we tend to worry less about teenagers than adults. but teenagers have been pushed down to the bottom of the job market. if you are an employer, why would you hire a teenager if you can hire somebody with experience, a 20-something, or in some c

but for parks, that are areas that are planted areas that are not recreational areas, it would be good to keep the dogs off of there for a possibility if that can be possible if it just makes the maintenance even harder, if there are no areas, where the people are allowed to go on them any way, it would be good that they don't let their dogs on there too. and finally, we have heard for years, that i forget these numbers and that

and they are by no means -- they are not making a ton of money and their benefits are not outrageous. what people are reacting to, there may be people in this situation who are at the high end where they feel as if people in the public sector are getting paid better than people in the private-sector. >> thinking about the b.a.r.t. strike or any other issue what's the biggest failure of leadership right now? >> the question in the united states is what is our mission? what are we trying to accomplish as a people and as a policy. i think if you understand that and you can put it into terms then all the decisions are out of it. if you don't know what your mission is, then every decision is an individual tactical decision and then everything. >> your name has been kicked around as someone who might be governor some day. >> i have been involved in a couple of proposition and races. when i got involved i said there's something that's not being done that i feel strongly about. and i'm willing to go in and if it's time consuming, embarrassing. >> you were captain of the yale soccer team. what

you are pretty much staying where you are when that earthquake hits. you are not going to be able to stand up and run with gravity. >> you want to get under the door frame but you are not moving to great distances. >> where can i buy a richter scale? >> mr. richter is selling it. we are going to put a plug in for cold hardware. they are not available. it's a rather complex. >> in fact we don't even use the richter scale anymore. we use a moment magnitude. the richter scale was early technology. >> probably a myth that i hear most often is my building is just fine in the loma prieta earthquake so everything is fine. is that true ? >> loma prieta was different. the ground acceleration here was quite moderate and the duration was moderate. so anyone that believes they survived a big earthquake and their building has been tested is sadly mistaken. >> we are planning for the bigger earthquake closer to san francisco and a fault totally independent. >> much stronger than the loma prieta earthquake. >> so people who were here in '89 they should say 3 times as

utterly unengaged and the amenities are crumbmy and the impacts are bad. the key issue is the rules for open space and other requirements where you can at least mitigate those neighborhood deadening consequences and what you have now in these neighbors is almost useless. there is no requirement even for open space at street level and if you do have public open space, at street level, your requirement is cut by one-third that is all of the rules that you have today. and the central corridor plan says very little about this and in fact needs a great deal of work between now and the final full development in a year or so. what we have presented to you, our recommendations for that plan which we believe you should start applying for these projects right now, starting with 333 branum and the projects will be coming to you in the next couple of months, clearly the open space must be a great and clearly it needs repailed associated with it to bring some life to it. the retail must never be formula retail, the worse thing an office building that kills the whole di

are we good? in my experience when you talk to kids like that, they stop because you are coming at them with respect. the last thing i would do is go to the target when nobody is looking, hey, i need some help with something. as you are walking down the hallway, hey, the thing i saw in the hallway yesterday, i don't know if that was playing or what it was, but from my end that doesn't seem right to me. you know you can always come to me. i know i'm not your teacher, i know i don't have all the answers but i can find somebody who can. you don't expect a big hallmark moment where the kid tells you everything. but you are planting a seed. we need to have teachers look like i am present, i am seen, i see you, i care about you and i care about you as much as i care about every single kid in this school. defend the rights of every child in the school and i'm going to do that in the 5 minutes of my break.

those are unreasonable expectations and why they are. there's, for example. nothing that the earthquake proof. that's always stuff inside that is damaged and life line connections, telephone and water that make habitability a problem. san francisco's earthquake hazard has a whole over lay of problems. first is our location. by the 2 faults. the san andreas, which is off shore of san francisco, and is about how far off shore? maybe a mile. so it's very, very close to the city and runs up to marin, >> a million years of earthquake movement created. that used to be in southern california. it's an active fault and the other is the hay ward fault. geology and other people say this is a fault that is more likely to have slippage. and the hay ward fault runs through the university of california >> right through memorial stadium, i understand. >> it's one site moving relative to the other >> and downtown san francisco, the heart of san francisco, this is basically almost exactly between the hay ward faults and san andreas. >> although if you live in the richmond dist
