there's bill gates., no, no, no, there is much more room to tax us at the highest end. >> there certainly is, and if we taxed the rich more, they would work just as hard. think about football players. in many cases there are caps on their salaries and that doesn't stop them from trying to win. >> you compare -- and that's what's so fascinating about this. this is not just yourm opinion from observing the world. you'll actually looked at salary caps on professional athletic teams in the united states versus europe where there are no salary caps, and you don't see any effort difference in the salary capped players versus the players that don't have any salary caps at all. >> no, of course not because winning is everything. and it's the same thing amongst ceos. all they want to do is be richer than their friend ceos. the level doesn't matter, what matters is the rank. >> this incentive issue is what you're finding throughout your research. incentives in classic economical theory don't work in the real world

you just heard bill gates say if you want to double his taxes he's cool with that and that makes bille progressive on income taxation than most off the democrats running for president. bill gates stays out of politic its as much as humanly possible. he doesn't endorse candidates. he hasn't created a giant super pack with all of his wealth but he did make clear in that intervie last week that he would vote for elizabeth warren against donald trump if that's who is on the ballot next year. he made that clear when asked that specific question. bill gates didn't name names but said the thing he would value most in a candidate is what he called a professional approach to the presidency. the audience started to laugh because obviously donald trump has the least professional approach to the president aancy in history and everybody knew bill gates was saying, in effect, he would vote for the democrat no matter who it is. bill gates is one of the few billionaire whose agrees with our next guest that billionaires are undertaxed. ester is this year's co winner of the nobel prize in economics and

when bill gates has a lower tax bill, we all benefit given the basic truth that there are note companiess without investment first. the rich invest. attacks on them puts a bull's-eye on everyone who is not rich. >> neil: i'm wondering -- you and i have gotten into this on fox business. billionaires love it. they argued that they cannot afford it. if they can afford it. it is not static money. these guys have s.w.a.t. teams of accountants and lawyers. that money is movable, isn't it? >> it is movable. if they save and invest more than the average person, which definitely helps the economy. the bigger problem is not that warren wants to tax billionair billionaires, it's the spending side that does not add up. when you start adding it up, the medicare for all, just all of the crazy programs that she has, she probably wants to forgive student debt as well. i'm not sure that she went there yet, but she will be. you start adding up everything that she wants to do, forget about billionaires and millionaires. it is the average joe that is going to get screwed. it is just logic. even her democrat

thank goodness bill gates is stepping up. in the business class has been remarkably silent on democrat strategy in the past. warren and the democrats and the pelosi budget spending skyrocketed and what bill gates brought up was capital accumulation. that's the major cause of economic growth and when trumped at the tax cuts, now high school graduate wages are going up as a result of that capital accumulation. so warren has plans to give away more free goods at christmas time, but social security, medical care is insolvent, $20 trillion deficit and to trillion dollar in debt right now. >> ed: the trump administration has cut that debt down as you know which i'm sure marie is going to get you on the other hand. it democrat gets elected like elizabeth warren, that debt i just mentioned that's been going up seems like it's going to go up a lot more under elizabeth warren or another democrat, isn't it? >> republicans have lost the ability to complain about debt and deficit after the levels of spending they have approved under presi
