knob and just a reminder that my guest on the show today is victory by law director of the federal drug control service and a brush. with mr ivanov there was another quote he used you say the only effective way to defeat drug related crime is to confiscate the property of those who run drug distribution networks do you think they will be unable to sell drugs if you confiscate their property i would think that in the country if you take away their property they would need to buy everything in use and this would seem to lead them to sell more drugs. actually this is a very important principle and the un international community supports it in fighting crime including drug related crime. this is important for crime prevention if we drug dealer or a potential drug dealer in news that's one he gets caught he will lose all the property he bought with this illegal income which they may decide not to do it. so we suggest adopting a law that would require the convicted drug dealers to show legitimate sources of income for all of their property but if this rule works in your european countries and also in

drug control policy in the white house. in this position, he coordinates all aspects of federal drug control programs and implementation of thepresident's national drug control strategy. he brings 37 years of law enforcement and drug policy experience to the position and most recently served for yard ne years at chief of police in seattle, washington, where he left crime at it lowest in 40 years. [applause] >> well, good morning, and thank you very much for being here, and this is the wonderful opportunity for me to associate, again, on this monitoring the future report with dr. volkow. and i thank her and actually the great staff that supports dr. johnson and the work that he has done. and the assistant secretary of health, dr. koh, could not be a stronger partner on these health issue, and his words about the health of young people and the responsibility we have as adults for them, i think, are particularly important. and, chris, i'm looking forward to hearing from you. and it's always a great pleasure to be with dr. johnson who has given us the information that helps so much in not only making policy, but also the informat

department is citing to emphasize that pot is still a dangerous and elicit drug in the eyes of the federal government t controlledstances act. the controlled substances act was signed into law by 1970 by one richard nixon. it created a system of sorting drugs into categories. the most dangerous being with the ones with a high potential for abuse and no currently accepted medical use. these are big time illegal drug ls. marijuana is a schedule one drug, along with heroin, lsd and ecstasy. the schedules go all the way up to schedule five, which is stuff not seen as likely to be abused and easy to get. like cough medicine. but schedule two. one stuff down from the stuff the federal government says is turbo dangerous. these are things that you can get a prescription for. methadone, ritalin, oxycontin. marijuana is on the super bad drug list along with lsd and heroin while cocaine and pcp are on the less dangerous list with all the kids adhd drugs. these are not carved in stone. they can be changed without an act of congress. as my colleague dale mathews outlined at the "washington post" today, if there's a citizens p

drug control policy in the white house. in this position coordinates all aspects of federal drug programs and implementation of the president's national drug control strategy. he brings 37 years of him for his manager policy experience and most recently served as chief of police for seattle washington where he last ran at its lowest point in 40 years. [applause] >> well, good morning and thank you very much for being here. this is a wonderful opportunity for me to associate again the future report with dr. walkoff and the staff that supports dr. johnson in the work he has done. the assistant secretary of health, dr. koh could not be a stronger partner on these issues in his words about the health of young people and responsibility we have as adults they think are particularly important. i'm looking forward to hearing from you and it's always a great pleasure to be with dr. johnson who has given us the information that helps so much and not only making policy, but also the information needed to improve the nation's health, particularly the health of young people. so there's a couple of important things that i really took from

control threats, all the things that they do. the federal bureau of investigations, the department of drug enforcement, these are absolutely important. then the other area is in homeland security. we could reduce the mission hours at the coast guard by as much as 50%. now, the coast guard is absolutely crucial related to drug addiction -- interdiction dicks, not addiction, drug interdiction, and also protecting our boarders from our waterways. a lot of people love the weather channel. i love the weather channel, too. and if you watch what they do in alaska, down in florida, whatever, they're out there doing search and rescue, they're out there making sure drug dealers aren't using our waterways and byways to come into our country and they're standing sentry and protecting the united states of america. again, we could talk about the border control. then there's this whole issue of the center for health and human services. you know, whatever you feel about obamacare, that doesn't affect what goes on at the center for disease control. right now the center for disease control and the f.d.a. are trying to make sure that we have food safe

federal aid for policing in high-crime areas, created drug courts, and intensified prosecutions of violent crimes against women. white house officials say the l ce president will be comprehensive this time as well, gun control will be include, will there also be efforts to expand access to mental health care services and expand the ntalogue on violent movies and januagames. >> the president has given the vice president until january to couple those recommendations. major, thank you very much. four more first graders and two more teachers killed in the school massacre last week were laid to rest today. seth doane continues our coverage in newtown, connecticut. >> reporter: boy scouts saluted the casket of fellow scout benjamin wheeler. er had been learning to play the piano and loved the beatles. scout pablo carmona wondered what many here did. >> i don't really know why he had to die, but it's very sad to see all this happen. >> reporter: jesse lewis' family described the first grader as d arless but admitted he slept in his mother's arms almost every night. his schoolmate catherine hubbard s s remembered for a smile as bright as her red hair. she'd recently been taking korseback riding lessons. six-year-ol

the federal law is pretty significant here because of course as you know back in 1970 we had a controlled substance act under nixon and one of those drugs that the fed said, you know what, was illegal and as you mentioned you can't manufacture and you can't produce and you can't import and you can't distribute and you can't sell would be marijuana and that's problematic because you have something called the supremacy clause. it's significant because what it says is there's a conflict between state law and federal law, guess which one controls? the federal law does. so it's still illegal federally. how that could resolve itself is as we've seen governors of both those states have met with the justice department and they have said, look, we're sovereign states. this is what our public wants to do. will you give us a break and not enforce it? so if the feds don't enforce it, then they will be partying as you just saw. >> and eric holder probably has serious meetings on the books with the administrators in these two states because it's not just the people that want to smoke it, it's the government that wants to tax it because i guess techni

drug it's worked pretty well. premium support guarantees recovery shouldn't iran budget, medicare is an option to choose. let's look at a federal rate and better set of benefits, because individual in controltheir own health care to some degree. again, there's a variety of things the president has put out $300 billion plus medicare cuts and reforms. i haven't seen how specific those postals are, but it does suggest he recognizes there needs to be some changes in these programs. people just saying absolutely no change in medicare, no change in medicaid, no change in social security. the negotiators have passed them by. they certainly have a medicare. >> caller: good morning. you know, i don't hear people talking about other ways of raising revenue and be like the oil companies. one of the biggest thing is killing the economy is the high fuel prices. but the profits for the oil company are so big. you have to say how come they can't take less of the rest of the country can get back up on its feet. >> guest: first of all i would disagree little bit. if you look at percentage of investment committee energy which the state is heavily involved in the citrix of item in their profits are five to 8
