from unfair government subsidies robert scott's a senior international economist at the economic policy institute and he's joining us now from washington d.c. thanks very much indeed for your time sir what is the tipping point would you say at which point both sides actually have to stop just racking up the levies and start talking. well unfortunately i think this can go on for some time particularly for the united states trade is a relatively small part of our economy and so far the tariffs have not begun to to bite on either economic growth or inflation the the job numbers came out today they continue to be strong g.d.p. is growing at four percent a year so there's been no evidence so far that the tariffs that had a broader negative impact on the economy does not mean they're a good thing but so far they're not being deeply felt i mean china's currency the yuan is already dropped by about nine percent against the dollar as far as china is concerned given the fact that its economy is predominantly export driven what do you think would be the trigger for it to to if not capitulate then at least m

is reaching new heights or lows perhaps the betting upon your class perspective the economic policy institute or a.p.i. today released a report that finds pay for bosses at the biggest u.s. corporations increased by a whopping average of seventeen point six percent last year versus twenty sixteen rank and file employees by contrast saw an increase of just three tenths of a percent of single percent in historical perspective e.p.i. points out that the ratio of c.e.o. to worker pay is increased dramatically in recent decades from get this twenty to one in one nine hundred sixty five to fifty to one in one thousand nine hundred five and twenty seventeen the figure is three hundred twelve to one if you i found that c.e.o. paychecks increase outpaced others in the super rich class with c.e.o.'s being paid five point five times as much as others in the top one percent of the pay scale. and there is an unsettling update to the product liability story around glycine the main ingredient in months santo's roundup brand of herbicide products the environmental working group reports that the independent l

according to the economic policy institute in non-right-to-work states the pay, wages are about 3% or of which side you're on, no question unions are weighing in heavily on this. every union you could possibly think of from the afl-cio to the teamsters, steelworkers, international union of operating engineers, i could go on and on, bricklayers and the rest, they all contributed about $15 million to this effort to block proposition a. and the folks on the right to work side have only spent about $3 million. so if it is determined on that, that would be one way to go, but, i would point out as you well know, tv ads, yard signs do not vote. people vote. and they will be voting for another three hours or so. polls close at 7:00 central in missouri. melissa. melissa: jeff, thank you. david: fox news contributor, former republican presidential candidate, herman cain. my friend, herman cain, good to see you, sir. how are you? >> david, happy to be with you. david: talk about the right-to-work laws. unions call to pay for a union to free riders. i call them free americans. what do you think?

joining me, director of economic policy studies at the american enterprise institute and opinion foromberg. michael, we won't bore viewers with the intricacies of the federal reserve but it is meant to be as are other central banks the all over the world independent of the president, of the executive branch of the government, and sort of important that it not fall under pressure of the president. >> that's right. i think it's important it not fall under pressure from the president or from congress. you want to keep partisan politics, keep electoral politics out of monetary policy decisions, because monetary policy decisions are so important, but also because there should be non-political. they should be additions based on what's on the best interests of the economy, trying to maximize employment and trying to keep price inflation at a stable rate. those goals are determined by congress, and those goals are the result of a democratic process. so the idea is, congress decides what the goal should be and let the fed get that there. >> we have had presidents in the past who explained som

technology items jeffrey albert tucker and a director of the american institute for economic research believes trump's trade policy is aimed at crafting an image as a strong leader. trump is a businessman and he's engaged in world trade all of his life and it's a very difficult thing to explain why he believes in economic nationalism but i would just make really two points why i mean is that protectionist ideology is a philosophical approach position that's a difficult nut to crack once it gets into the head you know where you think that if you want jobs for americans you have to have production for by and for americans this is what he believes the second thing is that by rally americans around the economic nationalism they grant him the appearance of having more more power more authority and allows them to exercise a kind of control over over the population and i hate to say it very reluctant to say it but i think that maybe the fundamental motivation namely politics and rallying his base behind him. thousands of yemenis have turned out in the capitol in protest. ongoing saudi led coalition strikes it was prompte

national domestic battle investors took that to mean that he's not going to constitute economic policies to institute the situation. his finance minister said all the right things, tighter monetary policy, independent central bank, but the market clearly doesn't believe a word he says and we are seeing that as well. president trump, by the way, is angry at erdogan for not releasing andrew brunson from house arrest he's accused of spying we'll have more on what president trump had to say as a result of all of this coming up later from kayla tausche but first let's setalk to seema mody >> i don't know about you but i vepgt spoken to one investor who said now is the time to buy turkey there's way too much working against it. >> you might be catching a falling knife is the old saying. >> to your point, u.s. markets are responding in a strong way we're looking at the industrials down about 191 points, both the dow and s&p now on track to snap a five-week winning streak financials faring the worst. stocks here as well as in europe have come under pressure amid these contagion fears. take a look at this cha

joining us now is the economic policy analyst at the american enterprise institute a cnbc contributorworse, 60%. is that how you would frame it there's a 60% chance that the trade conflict/trade tussle or whatever it is gets worse? >> yeah. that's not an unreasonable forecast the president tweeting continually his great love of tariffs, which i think has undercut -- i don't know, there's like a secret theory there's a secret theory that, in fact, president trump wants no tariffs, no subsidies, some sort of global perfect libertarian dream free trade zone. it doesn't seem like it to me. seems like he thinks tariffs are good and there's people in that administration that are prepared for these tariffs and more tariffs to be on for a long, long time as part of their sort of effort to change chinese economic policy. >> do you think that we'll be successful in changing chinese economic policy through tariffs? >> i don't i think they have a business model and that is using the state and state run enterprises to pick the emerging industries of the future. they have gone the other direction.

overall i'm there is with us from qatar university he's a senior policy analyst at the social and economic survey research institute thank you very much for your time and your issue can either of these countries actually have a true economic impact on the other. well. overall the big picture no there won't be much of an impact although these are two large economies are the two of them belong to do group of the twenty largest economies in the world they don't trade so much together the two way much of di's trade is around four billion u.s. dollar which may seem to be big but overall with regards to their g.d.p. or their overall exports it's very little if you compare for instance the exports of canada towards saudi arabia towards their g.d.p. we have just one point five million billion u.s. dollars compared to more than two trillion dollars so all and it's in some sort of perspective well then what's it about well that's more about diplomacy and the saudi government has a tendency to settle its disputes or to try to settle this dispute through economic means yes absolutely yes as qatar is aware yeah well you've ment

economically. no, iwas policies unsustainable economically. no, i was trying to respond. first of all, the country surrounding yemen, iran cannot help yemen. it could it should. when it comes to syria and iraq, the international institute no means connected to iran. they say that iran's military expenditure is 19th in the world. iran spent less on its military than saudi arabia, than the israeli regime, than turkey, than iraq, than the united arab emirates, with eight passport holding population of1 million. either your numbers are incorrect or the international institute for strategic studies, whose job it is to institute for strategic studies, whosejob it is to monitor institute for strategic studies, whose job it is to monitor military spending, is nonsense. i have been to syria and times over the past seven to syria and times over the past seve n yea rs to syria and times over the past seven years and i have never seen such huge amounts of money being spent in syria. the united states spent in syria. the united states spent trillions of dollars in wars in iraq, destroying iraq, destroying libya, helping the saudis destroy yemen, and to a dirty war in syria. they are the ones who have created this mess. let's bring

woodrow wilson who was progressive mostly in economic policy and maybe to a certain extent in international relations is regressive when it comes to race. he institutes segregations in washington, d.c. he helps establish the league of nations even though that's voted down by the u.s. congress. he had this idea of national self-determination by everyone. when people ask, does that apply to africa or asia? he says, of course, not. only europe. but that's how pernicious the turning school was. it was in the white house, in hollywood, it was everywhere. that was the picture of reconstruction that was dominant. one dissenting voice here and that is the famous black intellectual historian activist, one of the founders of the naacp, w. e. d. dubbois. he wanted to center the role of african americans in this whole trama. read this whole title. en essay in the role that black folks played in the attempt to re-establish democracy from the civil war to well of a reconstruction is over in 1880. he publishes this in 1935. and he is not -- he is saying this is not just a matter of reconstructing the union. it is a matter of reconstructing american democracy, its v
