and i think we need to continue expanding that along with expanding resource centers and recognizing that while there's people on the streets we need to both meet individuals, meet to try to address on long-term goal getting people out of homelessness in to housing and we need to continue expanding the system to meet the needs of the people on the street and the mayor's vision and it talks about balancing those two things in order to again deal with people's immediate needs but not have them get stuck in to shelter when they're not able to find exits and their homelessness. >> you didn't say much about 440 turning street but it's your new office? >> that's correctioner i believe it's the next item on the agenda >> got it. no more questions on this item. >> i just would like to say that number one, they could always do better by also want to commend our city's effort as you look at the stats throughout the state that every year it's gotten worse. we pretty much remain stable which is really a statement to our efforts and hopefully we'll in the future years actually reduce that number

richard nixon did not expand programs that much for education and social services, but he did expanditlement programs tremendously. and that, he created a federal unemployment insurance program. in a nationalized the food stamp program, which was a very small program when he took office. he created the supplemental security income program, which establishes a federal floor on income for the disabled and the poor elderly. he was a very big entitlement expander. in fact, he moved on farther -- or try to go farther -- but congress would not go along. the proposed the national health insurance plan very similar to the affordable care act, and he proposed federalization of the entire welfare system, which congress did not go along with. so richard nixon ranks right up there along the top entitlement expanders of any presidents in modern american history. brian: originally when medicare was passed, what did they expect to happen, and where were the republicans when that vote was taken? john: the republicans had imposed the enactment of medicare all the way through the 1950's and the early

and that's in an expanding economy, not a recession. sp paul ryan has his focus on cutting spending, specifical entitlements. john harwood is joining us from washington on what is sure to be a tricky bank shot for the gop. john, after fighting the white house over deficits so much during the obama years, republicans have brushed off talk of higher deficits from tax cuts. do they not matter if they occur because of tax cuts, only if they occur because of spending? >> reporter: that's what republicans believe. part of it is partisan, but republicans bel in smaller government. they view tax cuts as economic policy to produce growth, then want to right size spending to fit the tax rates that they have cut to. and so that's why republicans brushed off those democratic complaints about deficits from the tax cuts during the tax debate. but they're coming at 'em pretty quickly now that the tax cut is real and we're going to have some budget consequences. >> i seem to hear you saying that the deficits give the gop an opportunity, then, to shrink

planning code says you can't expand a nonconforming use. that alone should be enough to deny this variance. this should not be allowed to happen. it's very bad planning. the project support ors knew it was a small oddly configured house when they bought it. they should have done their due diligence in nonconforming use. this project should be denied and this project should not be allowed to go forward with the variance. thank you. >> thank you next wither, please. >> and again if the line could start right there at the corner of the desk, yeah. >> >> good evening, welcome. >> hello. >> so i'm nicholas chen. i'm here on behalf of my parents. we're 2521 steiner street, and we're the neighbor on the other side. i wanted to go back to some of these documents that i put underneath the projector which shows the view from our back yard on the far left. the view of the, i guess you'd call it the appellant's provided graphic and then, the view of the developer's provided graphic, so i think you had a question about how far it goes back, so you can s

we will be expanding internationally next year.ers say this something i can take advantage of for my business-critical application, let's go. talked over the last several months about the big being under the dell under ella and whether figure is really better. do you believe -- under the dell umbrella and whether bigger is really better. >> we described this synergy that dell vmware would bring to. -- would bring to vmware. i upgraded our guidance because we are seeing that acceleration. we are seeing that in a variety of ways. marketsell can reach that we are not penetrated in two. local, so theyd are taking us into spaces we don't have the reach four. secondly, we are bringing solutions that bring customers more value. one example is the solution we built together with dell is having great success in expanding our storage-defined search products. very tangible results and benefits as part of the bigger dell technology family and michael and i are getting along well as we dream of the future together, so overall dell and vmware wo

shown tremendously and kept expanding. from there to here, this is a very unfair sharing of the territory. this is a very unfair sharing because they are right through the palace demands. whatever israel was the 19th order seven, that is what palestine is today and israel has almost settled and i think they are still investing to take the entire territory. this is what president trump seems to race for because he is the defender of the even jealousy and zionist rationale. this is the project is such a rationale. this is enforced upon them they are still trying to do it today. as the executive, we are going to be very resolute in terms of our steps, vis-À-vis palestine. jerusalem guideline or eternity and this is what we have spoken out to the rest of the world despite all of the warning, all of the alerts kept on delivering the statement which is immoral and invalid. it is not valid in our understanding key will play and advanced himself. -- [inaudible] and i have called and he has delivered several speeches, which are alm

maine's governor and maine voters fight over expanding medicaid. the trump agenda-- reviewing the year of the president's foreign policy shift, and much more. >> sreenivasan: now, additional details of the new tax laws. the rewrite of the tax code, signed by the president last week, takes effect on monday. one of its central features and biggest changes involves a tax rate known as the "pass-through rate." many experts are watching to see how businesses, employers and individuals adjust, and what kind of loopholes it may offer. correspondent lisa desjardins reports on what that pass through rate is and who might be affected. >> desjardins: in the tax code, not all business is created equal. corporations, defined by the fact that they pay direct corporate taxes, saw the biggest tax cut in the republican law. that led republicans to create a another tax break for smaller companies. >> historic small-business tax cuts and pass-throughs now are made really, really good for the business owner. the small-business tax cut and the pass-throughs are now rea

>> we could expand the program at the direction of the governing bodies. yes. we have chosen -- we have chosen not to. staying within our city, our city foot print so far. >> when you say "government bodies" -- >> yourselfs. >> ok. [laughter] i didn't know if you meant -- >> well, if -- expansion -- we would pursue expansion if we were directed to by the board of supervisors to actually consummate an expansion. it would require other governing bodies to authorize that. to agree. for example, a service territory that we're trying to expand into would need to agree and we would need to receive certification from the california public utilities commission that that expansion is authorized. >> are there any reasons why we shouldn't? >> at this point, we're focused on making sure we meet the objective of serving all of san francisco. once we have a full program serving all of san francisco, it might be appropriate for the city to consider expanding to other jurisdictions. i would note that all of the counties contiguous to us are already launching programs of their

juxtaposed together they tell an important story about empire and it is the shrinking wealth home expanding footprint abroad so first i'm going to look to a story about one of my favorite headlines talked about often and that is the obamacare smart tactic but sad that americans need to be so strategic to afford health care and cornwell considered to drastic strategies in her quest to get affordable health insurance premiums last year for herself and her retired husband one was divorce another was taking thirty percent pay cut she chose the latter the maneuver slashed the premiums for the couple who lived in chattanooga tennessee from exorbitant to economical instead of two thousand one hundred dollars a month the amount she had been quoted for twenty seventeen their premiums are just eighty seven dollars monthly her lost income more than compensated for by qualifying for insurance subsidies they're seeing this now going into twenty eighteen where premiums are going up again you know we've talked about these two thousand dollars a month premiums but what americans are choosing to do is shrin

to expand and create jobs. our legislation also includes at provision that i helped develop that with the book by accounting rules for small businesses, i should say, which will also help reduce their tax burden. this leaves more of their earnings to reinvest in their businesses and in their workers. mr. president, in addition to providing relief another thing our bill does is boost american wages is to lower a massive corporate tax rate. >> we will return to this in a bit to take you live outside the senate core door for republican leaders after their weekly meeting. >> we've done a little research and that is the greatest number of circuit judges that have been approved and a president term sent at least world war ii. as you know, the big issue is the tax commerce report. we all are still intense discussion with our colleagues on the house side and i don't have any news to make on that front right now but we hope to wrap it up pretty soon. >> we are winding down on 2017 and i'm hopeful by the end of the year

the jobs are defined by the companies, the companies are going to be expanding and creating jobs. in education we are talking choice, and jobs we are going to be talking choice because right now people go for one job, they are many options. they are going to have plenty of options, five, six, seven jobs and pick the one they want. wages are starting to go up, the first time in many years. wages are starting to go up. we have a lot of great things happening but really something that i think will be there cap is the massive tax cuts we are planning that hopefully within a short period of time we will have signed into law. it will be bigger than anything ever done in this country, bigger than any cuts and there are also some things in that bill that are very big that are somewhat unrelated. ultimately i think it is all related. i just want to thank everybody at the table, mike, everybody at the table for being here and i want to have a very fast lunch so you can go back and finish it up. i feel guilty having you here. i want you to go back immediately and finish it up, thank you very

and then how government expanded or maybe expanded too much. that's not to say the government doesn't have a role. it does have a role and it's a constructive role and i think government can be very meaningful. like anything it can be overdone and i think we have seen it be overdone particular of the last several years. >> host: andy puzder what did you withdraw? >> the only reason i withdrew was because i didn't have enough votes to get confirmed. if i would have had the votes to get confirmed i would have stuck it out until the end instead of having this conversation a beautiful hotel in the beating my brains out in washington d.c. d.c.. there were such an adverse reaction to betsy devos being approved as secretary of education. chuck schumer identified me as a target that they were going to go after. the press was merciless, dishonest. some other interview we can talk about the fake news during his confirmation process but i got beat up. badly. it made some liberal republicans a little nervous. you start off losing two. you have the tube it

as well as expanded deduction for medical expenses, those are in the bill. she also wanted a vote on health care stabilization education and it doesn't look like that's going to happen before this tax bill comes up for a vote next week >> ylan, thank you, ylan mui in d.c. with a rundown of what is in that tax bill put out by the gop. we saw the rally in today's market, the markets are acting as if it's over the goal line at this point is this something you should buy? >> i can just tell you in my own conversations with clients, you know, big mutual funds, fully half believe it was priced in. >> really? fully priced in? >> and another half are like, no, it's more like 60 or 80, implying there is upside related to this political -- >> which is interesting, because if you listen to the street, my sense is that strategists are now able, with some tangible numbers, now they have them, to really put some numbers on eps growth now that we can do this for 2018, i'm hearing from 10 to 18% in terms of eps growth for the s&p. that means you have not priced it all in an

she wants to expand but she's held back by our uncompetitive tax code. if we cut taxes she's going to be able to buy land, expand the business, create more jobs, greater opportunity for her, her family, and the people of colorado. so this really is an opportunity to see the kind of economic growth and wage growth that we have not seen in this country for far too long. i've held several roundtables on taxes throughout the eastern plains of colorado where i live. people who are worried about the income they have because they haven't seen the kind of economic growth, the numbers in employment grow like they have in the front range in denver, held tax roundtables in the western slope of colorado, northern colorado, they are all worried about they see a country not as competitive as it used to be and they know with the competitive tax code they can see those jobs come back, investment come back into this country once again. people in pueblo, colorado, know that they need jobs brought back into their community because while many areas of colorado see very low

they are very excited about getting money back so they can expand. that expansion will bring more jobs in areas we need jobs. >> i'm saying to you that this is a jobs bill. >>. >> all americans own stock in corporations. >> american people do. >> some american people do. >> also sitting on $2.3 trillion in cash. >> in all due respect -- >> why would you say i need more of those corporations to have more money? why not give it directly to the folks. why not do job creation by giving the money to the middle class and lower class so they can reinvest in themselves? >> i understand your narrative. that is the concept of socialism. all you do is transfer welt from one person to the other. >> it's a tax cut. if you are doing tax cuts they are not socialism. >> tax cuts are not socialism. it's a tax cut we are talking about. i'm talking about a tax cut. >> middle america, wait until they get their paycheck in february and then tell me do the american people approve of this? there is a lot of communication that is distorted and the reality is it will come tr

companies making announcements saying they will expand in the u.s. and create jobs in america, even raising wages, giving out bonuses. this within minutes of congress passing the tax cut, the announcements started coming in. boeing, fifth third, at&t, fedex, southwest, delta. we're all over this. developing, fast moving story and now this. wells fargo says they will raise the minimum wage for workers just as fifth third said it will do that as well. former reagan economist dr. art laffer here to debunk some of the media myths about today's tax reform bill after this. stay right there. . >> it wins with the rich people, with big business, and while they weren't president trump's base, he certainly wants to celebrate this christmas at mar-a-lago with the richest of the rich, and they've got a lot to party about. >> the problem is there's no guarantee it will do that, it will balloon the deficit. it's been sold as a middle-class tax cut primarily and it isn't either of those things. could increase income inequality. liz: the media not happy about tax cu

a magic wand -- >> i would gladly expand upon that. every other civilized country in the world, including all of her allies, essentially takes the following approach to declassification which is to say after a certain period of time, typically 25-30 years, things will be declassified. unless the government can come up with a really good reason to show why it shouldn't be because listen, i believe they should be secret, don't get me wrong. i'm no wikileaks person there are things that need to be held tightly in things that should not be revealed for political, strategic, personal, lively reasons but the government should have to show why. whether to adjudge or to a credit or panel of some kind. in our country we do things exactly the opposite which is to say after 25 years if you can identify the document exist you may ask permission for them to be given. as i already demonstrated from our jfk experience from a moment ago i have zero confidence and i say this with full love and admiration for my friends in the national archives, i have
