you have a handful of peopl getting these cush packages, at the same time you have municipalities, like san bernardino, detroit, filing for bankruptcy. we can't afford it. there is accountability for this process. >> david, what do you think? can we afford it? >> the parents have a choice for that matter. they have a choice of who is their superintendent and how much that superintendent gets paid. if they're looking at a return on investment and whether or not their children arehaving, gaining higher performance scores or test scores, then it may be justified in their mind, but if it's not happening and they're not performing, then they need to get a new superintendent and to reduce the amount they're paying that superintendent on performance. but they he a choice. >> jonas, he makes more than the president of the united states. >> who is underpaid in my opinion. look, we don't really know what this what have you thought that this guy saved $10 million out of the budget. he was going to get a cut? if a ceo oversaw that budget. i don't know if he took a vow of poverty, if these large cor

the southern leg of the keystone xl starts in cushing, oklahoma, and ends in houston.p. if all this discussion about texas and what's good for texas, our oil can't even get into this pipeline. we're just a pass through for money, oil, that's sitting in cc cushing that needs to get to a refinery. so greed is driving all this. >> so this is basically based on kilo versus the city of london. one of the things about that particular case is "newsweek" went back of some period of time. this was a case in which pfizer was given the right to take over and demolish private homes for development. pfizer pulled up stakes in 2009 and actually -- my apologies, it's "the weekly standard." the reporter returns and spoke to one of the uprooted residents and found nothing has been done. people were uprooted basically for nothing. >> yeah, and that's a heartbreaking case. eight years old. it did spark a public outcry. so much so that president bush, president at the time, signed an executive order indicating that the government's eminent domain power must be used clearly for a public be

. >> that leg that you are referring to is what we call phase three from cushing, oklahoma to the gulf coast. the pipeline is built right from canada through the united states, we can deliver to the midwest and to the gulf coast. in this last week, we actually delivered our first batch of oil right from alberta right through to texas. a very important part of getting this project done. what's left in fact is only about 800 miles of pipeline through montana, south dakota and nebraska. once that's complete, then you have the full four phases up and running. >> that's when we get to the $830,000 some -- >> the first two phases have delivered about 560 million barrels of oil since 2010 to the u.s. what will happen with keystone xl, it will add an extra component to pick up barrels from canada and deliver them to cushing, oklahoma. subsequently they can be delivered in gulf coast to go to refineries in the gulf coast. >> the ultimate question consumers want to know when this is said and done, what will that mean for the price of crude oil? >> this is the benefit of this pipe is internationa

also, you know, last week when we looked at inventory data we saw another drawdown out of cushing. that thinned a lot of supply especially if the midwest. we're starting to see gasoline prices creep up back over $4 at the pump. a lot of props going on. a lot of people are seeing a selloff in the technical pattern we had from 104 down to 97. we're moving back up. we got a 50% retracement and i think we move back up to the highs from here. david: rob, despite all the money made in the past year or so, there are still a lot of people in cash. i speak to a number of people on the sidelines. they have quite a bit of cash with some of these people. they say i will not put my money in now. i waited this long. i will wait for wait for a significant pullback and are they making a mistake? >> yeah. betting on a pullback is sort of a one bet game. it either pulls back and you invest and turns into a bigger pullback and you're sorry you did that. it pulls back and rallies you win or it just rallies. one of the three scenarios is only one that works. it is getting better economically speaking.

mark has written extensively on this topic, and michael gordon, cush tourism, colorado's first marijuana tours. so michelle, you look at the trends and the polls, and it's really true, a lot of people do believe that it's just a when, and not an if. some estimate that the next decade or two, from your perspective, where is this conversation at right now in the u.s.? >> i actually think that it's going to happen much sooner than people realize. i believe that by 2016 we'll see a revenue of $32 billion. and they're looking at colorado as the great experiment that they're looking at. and in my opinion, it's quite evident that it's a huge success. the demand was so great that within the first week, the retail outlets were actually sold out. so in my opinion, when you realize there's a tremendous public acceptance and record rates of approval throughout the country, and when you realize that people like me, a corporate woman, who is also a mom with two beautiful daughters, and i used it personally, and it worked for me. this is a rebranding campaign. marijuana got a bad rap, and it's a miracu

and because radio net cushings were so profitable they underwrote television's development at that point before television was economically viable. but that hollowing out process was one that everyone in the radio industry -- we're pretting sure the writing was on the wall. but as my book argues, by that point the network had -- the radio industry on many levels had already began to transform itself via these different institutions and these different entities, such that in the final chapter i look at the rise of distracted listening. in the 1930s, radio networks wanted to cultivate this idea of the family sitting around the radio set in the evening, and everyone listening with rapt attention, but there's a recognition bit the mid-1940s that many people had multiple radios. there will radios starting to be installed regularly in cars and midget sets that teenagers were listening to, and the things thought about as the culture of the 19 -- 1950s were operating long before radio industry collapsed in the 1950s. >> host: how an has radio been pronounced on its death bed? >> guest: any numbe
