know i think what we're trying to argue is that right now our foreign policy has been hijacked if ben franklinwas alive today and saw what was going on he'd be really offended and be writing about it in his newspaper be writing about in his newspaper because he said you know nothing is certain but death and taxes and so it's one of the things that we're trying to do is to make the case that the american public needs to see the connections between why they should care about foreign policy why they have to to go. the grocery store and the seafood products on the shelf it's just those prices don't just mysteriously appear out of nowhere there's actually government policies that help dictate the prices of food that are available in the policies behind their you know their availability there's a relationship here too to food deserts is there not the large areas of the united states where there's plenty of food stores but in them you can't find food that will not put you at risk for these kind of deaths and yet we do that yeah that's exactly right there's a lot of disparities right now in the u.s. w

sorry, every time i listen to the stack shows it always brings a back to the old ben franklin quote about taxes -- don't tax me, tax the guy behind the tree. people grasp that the concept of corporations, that they really don't pay taxes , guest: that they collect taxes. well, i was born on benjamin franklin's birthday, that warms my heart to quote him. i think that that quote again goes to the point we were trying to make, that the tax system is complex and is where the most money is, for the biggest -- the biggest tax breaks are in terms of dollars. it goes out to taxpayers with individual tax preferences, benefiting the middle class, the upper-middle-class. i think if you are going to have tax reform, everyone is going to have to give a little bit and that is a hard sell to make when you are coming out of a recession and people feel they have given a lot in terms of jobs and reduced pay, things like that. but i think that that is what you will get in terms of giving up some kind of a break, you will get a fairer and easier, simpler, less complex system. you may have some confidence tha

thus, when ben franklin was reportedly asked what you have given us, he replied, a epublic, if you can keep it. well, muslim moderates are concerned because they see the united states trying to embrace radicals. and again i am so proud of the in ate muslims in egypt joining, figuratively and literally, arm in arm, hand in handy christians, with secularists in egypt and coming to the street in millions and millions and millions and demanding a leader who would not usurp power that was not his in the constitution, demanding his removal, demanding a constitution that would allow them to impeach a leader like morsi had become, made slim brother, they clear, we don't want radical islamists, leaders or people in our government, because they have one goal and that is taking over all power, subjugating everyone else, including moderate muslims, christians, that's why it was so ironic to hear the supreme court, at least one of the justices there in effect say, just pay the tax and then you got your religious beliefs. because that is a shari'a law belief. i know she's not aware of that. but actu

deeply into debt is having financial independence which of course is completely false us live ben franklin famously said a penny saved is a penny earned in other words without financial sovereignty there is though political sovereignty no one america can rightfully say that they are free of all being so gargantuan late in debt so it's a bit of a sure rod that agree with you the facebook virtual reality goggles would just allow people to get further into debt and further away from being able to support themselves with a job they all live on the large debts of the government at this point and of course the government can only print so much money before their creditors are bach and then you'll just people suffering quiet. in terms of saving this much money basically out of incomes that are declining remember most twenty thirty year olds are working at mcdonald's or you know some sort of outlet like the gap so they're only on ten dollars an hour or less so they're saying ok you have to save three hundred sixty one dollars a month in order to retire at a million dollars and what they're basing

ben franklin and john adams looked at it and changed it with editing, but the first american that comesa writer. >> in a hot summer, he was in one of the houses down in philadelphia working on the louisiana purchase during his presidency. what happened here? >> his presidency was a mixed bag. he was a good president but not a great one. the crowning was the purchase. he really struggled with it, as you know. he philosophically didn't think the president had the power to unilaterally make the acquisition. he wrote about it to different senators and friends and said, it was a great deal for the united states and did it because he knew napoleon was about to change his mind. so he finally did it, the right thing to do, but philosophically he struggled with the idea of if he had the power to do it. really amazing. >> and getting us support in new orleans. the university of virginia, he was obsessive about the university of virginia. just about every detail, right? >> he was. the building, the construction, the architecture and course selection. he really wanted a universe separated from reli
