elizabeth macdonald is here, this is wal-mart saying this?art's president of the u.s. operations, phil simon, saying that he is concerned. also these investor relations director at wal-mart telling analysts on wall street, that there's deep concern that consumers, meaning the middle class low income consumer and the shopper coming into wal-mart's doors are now seeing obamacare hitting their wallets and there may not be the same spending power that these shoppers had in the past due to health reform. >> hold on it second. let's spell this out. under obamacare as it goes forward, tens of millions, if not maybe 100 million people will have to pay a higher premium. i think i'm right in saying that, this'll probably have to pay a much bigger deductible and maybe even new and higher co-pays. >> right. >> that's the story going forward? >> that's the story and this is for the first time, we've seen a company say their sales will be hurt and we know about the medical device companies who have to by that exice tax on sales and even if they're bleeding

elizabeth macdonald staying over for this block. she found some more gems.s. >> so if you're getting one of these letters, just shop around in the new marketplace. that's what it's for. stuart: just shop around, liz, what's wrong with that? >> the president-- he's downplaying the 15 million people affected by cancellations in the individual market and those represent 5%. he said this, too, even if it's a small percentage of people we're talking about 5% of the population. we're talking about 15 million people are seeing cancellations and even if they shop around, they can't shop on the health care website and if they do shop around, premiums are spiking and they're seeing doctors dropping, you know, the use of the coverage. stuart: oh, come on, liz, it's only 15 million people liz: yeah, the big whoop-de-doo. stuart: whoop-de-doo did you say? here is the next gem. this is from nancy pelosi. remember her fog of controversy statement. what about this one, i can't use the tape so i've got to read this verbatim. there's a lot of whoop-de-doo and doo about what's

charles: elizabeth macdonald is with us, you have even more on this.bs, talking what we saw in the last quarter. the jobs report today is back to where we were in 2012. the department of labor officials said a government shutdown had no discernible impact on private sector in october. for an official to say it. charles: we will see if he has a job tomorrow. what exactly did they get for $4 million? the state websites are just as big of a disaster as the old one. charles: the state websites are doing great, if only the states said you run the exchange. if they left the states themselves. that is not the narrative. what we're seeing now is an issue coming out of research that colorado, california, they run their own website and they are running into problems and it is getting to the point even insurance broker in california now says this storyline when they say the states are being a great response, overwhelmed. that is not the case. the staff is wrong. people are calling so many times because the website is not functioning. the outpouring of the reactio

elizabeth macdonald is here with us. this is separate from medicaid, which you get for free, right? and these are subsidies paid to nearly 17 million people in the form of a tax credit. >> right. stuart: is that like cash in the hand? >> it is like cash. what we're seeing here is essentially the tax credits in health reform could amount to the cost of the u.s. taxpayer, could cost about $73 billion a year. the tax credits that are being given out to buy health insurance on the exchanges. we're seeing that they're being done on the honor system, meaning that the states are-- and the federal government is giving the amount upfront and then doing the audits after the fact to verify whether or not people qualify for it based on income. >> that reminds me of a mortgage. you say you earn money and you don't earn that money. it's the same with this kind of tax credit for a subsidy on obamacare, isn't it? >> that's why-- >> you can lie essentially. >> that's where there's concern at the fbi. the fbi talking to fox business. agen

here with more, elizabeth macdonald. this was supposed to happen this way.t the counties l premi--se completely spiking on the middle-class. heryl: that's right. in the emilhange's compared to what they were pre reform. let me show you theimpmy astates that we are seeing the price spikes happening. states like nevada, arizona, minnesota, wyoming, you will see these other states where they sought a doubling of their price pre reformi- what we are also seeing is even when the state exchanges hwe >> rnched in states like california, texas, ohio, vermont, we are seeing the costs go uup 1 so pre reform premi-- costs have been doubling to be within the state emilhanges the eaelves rece nuing price increases of anywhere from 30 to 40, 50 percent. cheryl: even in a state lclase texas, those that may be gutted "in september and the premi-- was $um0 a month, they're going back and finding out that the premium "is $400. heryl: that is eughctly rigen t. seen their premiums go up in the state exchanges. so this is basically ird ormatin from the help the same site, the bi

elizabeth macdonald is here with that. liz: i want to hear more of dagen's thoughts. lot to say, she is very smart. dagen: you do your story and i will tidy my last last experience in the post office which did not result in my arrest, but close. liz: now i have 30 seconds. los angeles, new york, sunday postal delivery for amazon prime customers. so basically amazon's show in the u.s. government how to fix the u.s. postal service. they're taking it directly to ups and fedex. this is a big deal because basically the u.s. postal service saying we want this business, it is trending toward $190 billion package delivery for the u.s. postal service now makes up a fifth of its revenue for the u.s. postal service so yes it is running at a deficit, lost $16 billion last year but the u.s. postal service is working with amazon to do this sunday shipping. whether they step up the plate means to be seen. interestingly enough they don't need a congressional approval. they wanted to cut saturday delivery, now we're seeing amazon and ups looking up. no details on the revenue involved

fox business network's elizabeth macdonald joins us to explain how that might happen. >> good to be with. buried in nearly 11,000 pages of the affordable care act is a little-known provision that could cost doctors and hospitals a lot of money. three months of free health care to enrollees in these exchanges if these consumers choose to default on premiums. people who get tax subsidies to buy insurance on the exchange get a three-month grace period. if they can not pay the premium they have to cancel the to sis. only repercussion or fallout, these individuals have to wait to enroll again on health exchanges the following year. jon, health experts say this is a green light for fraud. jon: what does that mean for doctors and hospitals? >> it means doctors and hospitals have to pick up the tab if patients default on insurance in the exchanges. in fact regulations for the new health reform law says doctors and hospitals themselves have to get patients to pay up if they default. back to you, jon. jon: of course, leave it to them to collect. liz macdonald, thank you. >> sure. >> we're looking

with more, elizabeth macdonald with her bottom line. liz? >> unusually aggressive speech from mr.am dudley who is the federal reserve's president here in new york city. he is calling for a cultural shift at the banks. blasting them for ethical lapses. this comes five years after the collapse of the big banks here in the united states after 2008. he made the speech at nyu school of law. he didn't name any names of banks in his speech. but you know, william dudley did come up through the investment banking world. he was at goldman sachs. the other issue too, we have critics coming in william cohen, former investment bank and author of books about wall street. he is saying it is about time, william cohen saying that to market watch yesterday. you never saw tim geithner be outspoken in his criticisms of wall street. now we have william dudley under fire for waiting so long for making these comments in a speech to nyu law school. other criticism coming in from mr. dudley is this, essentially he is a regulator. if he saw these lapses in regulatory judgment at the big banks why is he wai

here is elizabeth macdonald. liz: pretty withering remarks. an aggressive speech at nyu law school.g the following, the big banks should be blamed for ethical lapse. he wants a cultural shift to take place. he says many large financial institutions display an apparent lack of respect for law, regulation and the public trust. critics coming back like the former investment banker saying it is about time, but he did say props up, he would not have heard these comments from tim geithner who ran the new york fed. adam: if you go back to the 619 page report, a look at goldman sachs, deutsche bank and the way they were selling product to unsuspecting clients, and it adds evidence of what he is talking about. liz: he was a former partner at goldman sachs. the regulators missed the financial crisis, the hiding in plain sight, people knew about and the regulators did nothing about and the safety net into the too big to fail system now in place in the united states. we talked about this, i tell you something, he is now saying he is not convinced too big to fail should go away. they are needed
