now, the continuing resolution we've talked about would also include flexibility for agencies to prioritize spending subject to congressional oversight. but we've got to have budget discipline. we're spending more than we're taking in. so it's a family, a business, a federal government, that doesn't work. so we've got exercise budget discipline. also, we talked about ideas that might include addressing the medical device tax, possibly repealing the medical device tax or at least deferring it for two years. and paying for it with pension smoothing under provision similar to those in m.a.p. 21. and we've looked at and talked about requiring income verification under the affordable care act to avoid fraud. ideas that republicans have put forward and i think there's been broad support for on the democrat side of the aisle. this agreement would open government and address the debt ceiling on a short term basis. but the reality is, we need to find savings and reforms to address the underlying problems that are driving our deficit and our debt. as part of the debt ceiling agreement, we need to hav

now you can argue that some of that spending is flexible, but the problem is perception is as important as reality. and if the markets think that the government can't get its act together-- which they already think-- it will have a very devastating effect. in 2011, we didn't go over the debt ceiling, we didn't breach it, and it still had tremendous consequences. consumers paid $1.3 billion more in interest in a short period of time. and it cost the economy some $16 billion in other ways. that was by not going over. christine laguard said again this morning said she thinks it would cause a global recession. >> first of all, being lectured by a french leader, given europe's inability to solve any of its major problems doesn't overwhelm me. >> she's not the only one. >>in,in. but i'm saying i watched her clip this morning and thought this is what we need is to be lectured by somebody who represents a euro zone that has totally failed to solve its problems outside of germany. but in addition, i think it's very important to understand two things about this. one, if they really had to, you ca

, and they could staff, up for special events, and give that everybody a little more flexibility, in addition, we believe that it should improve the customer service, as you will have one operator there, responsible for all of these lots, instead of the two operators now and then the final component of it is that, it also, will hopefully attract, operators that have the financial resources to really carry these lots in non-peak season and so you have two pretty distinct seasons for these lots and so we feel that with one operator, we will be able to achieve these objectives. the project objective is a little more clear picture of the lots. the project objectives would to off of these lots after the authorization from the port commission through the competitive bidding process on a sealed price basis and anyone who represents the highest base and meets the bid qualifications will be awarded the opportunity to enter into a lease. >> so to put these lots in perspective, i wanted to provide a pie chart on the parking operation as compared to the entire portfolio, as you can see there is

there's a lot of flexibility. the private sector continues to have lots of room for innovation and competition and yet we're going to move into a system where everyone can basically have health insurance and mandated to have health insurance. i'm sympathetic with both sides of the equation. i understand how hard it is for the white house to come in when you're not talking about a single payer system much like katrina was and you're talking about a mix mash of other possibilities for consumers that this is inevitably going to happen. >> strategically it seems like the white house thought, okay, look. this thing is too nuanced, a lot of complication involved. we're going to wait until the enrollment period begins, until people are experiencing and interfacing with it and seeing its benefits. then we can kind of clear up this stipulation that nobody is going to lose their pre-existing insurance. >> i think that's exactly right. i think they kind of fooled themselves into believing that. at the same time i think repub
