i knew milton friedman, and at any rate, and milton friedman was a gentleman, and i don't think there's any reason to disagree with what i just said or disagree with that little anecdote of yours. but go on, pardon me. >> host: he is, he is off the line. from your first book, "public nuisances," you write: the final irony of nixon is that the very qualities that earned him the wary respect of tyrants drove many american liberals right out of their minds. is it possible that the qualities that made him successful abroad made him a disaster at home? or was he ever a success anywhere? >> guest: uh, well, richard nixon was a complicated man. i've come to the conclusion that in that essay of mine on detente i was excessively harsh. but then occasionally i'm given to be excessively harsh. richard nixon and henry kissinger, i jumped on them for detente. the truth of the matter is detente worked. it gave us a breathing spell. it gave us time to work out to the position where ronald reagan could fashion an arms buildup that broke the soviets' back. so i think richard nixon was a successful presi

>>friedman: in a word no. the concern is more about egypt. we have seen violence and unrest in egypt this week.we've seen definitely that the post tunisian situation is emboldening north african nations. there's a whole another story playing out in lebanon where hezbola is now calling the shots. but i would say the saudi arabian situation in the gulf emirates are not at risk from this kind of uprising. for a variety of reasons that are about security, bout the way they run their systems. and about the fact that when you have more money and you actually give it to more of your citizens, as they doin the abu dhabi, dubai, qatar , bahrain areas., there's less incentive to revolt. whereas in the poorer countries, where there is grinding poverty, that is the risk. >>at the world economic forum 5 years ago, the general view was that the fast-growing economies of china and india would overshadow the smaller emerging markets of south east asia. instead asean has been boosted by the expansion of the two asian giants... with intra regional trade growin

friedman. he was a gentleman. i don't think he will disagree with what i just said or disagree with that little anecdote of yours. >> host: off the line from your first book, "public nuisances," fire now -- final irony of nixon that earned him the wary respect of tyrants drove many american liberals out of their minds. is it possible the qualities that made him successful abroad may have a disaster at home or was he after a success anywhere? >> guest: richard nixon was a complicated man. i have come to the conclusion that in that essay of line, he is excessively harsh but occasionally -- richard nixon and henry kissinger, i jumped on them for day, that gave us time to work to the position. it fashion an arms buildup that brought the soviets back. he had an aspect of the presidency. he was a disaster in other areas. he is awfully argumentative. >> host: tempo, florida. you are on with r. emmett tyrrell. >> nice to talk to you. i think ronald reagan would be rolling in his grave if he knew conser

there's no better person to talk to on this evening cairo than tom friedman. as we talked in this conversation, events are not to be known at this moment. something is happening. there is much talk that the president may step down. there's also much talk that the army is meeting. the army has the ultimate power here and we do not know yet what they may do, nor do we know what the president may do at this time, nor do we know what the people in the street may do. but i want to begin with tom friedman and have him tell us about his own experience in this region and when it began and so welcome and what a great moment it is to have you here, overlooking the nile at a country that is at the center of the world's attention with huge ramifications for the region and for the world. >> it's... i don't want to say it's the most amazing story i've ever covered because who knows over 40 years. but it's so remarkable in someone specific degree and that is the degree it has led from the bottom up. and the degree of which it is about no party, no faction. it's about the peo

with that, i will turn it over to neil friedman. i also want to state that susan mizner from the mayor's office of disability is here as well. >> thank you very much. that was a very impressive discussion of the issues. i think you practically steal my thunder. there are just a few things left that i can say. maybe i will preface it all with a couple of items. i was listening to gina give her speech. i was watching myself in the monitor. i saw my father there, who is 98 years old and just starting to use a walker. all i can think is we are all headed in that direction, and we had better get accessibility going pretty quickly. i know for his part he cannot navigate things like short steps to get into stores. although he is no longer actively out in the community, he does occasionally get out there. the other thing i want to say is that i found out -- i was giving a presentation last week and later when to have lunch at a small cafe which will remain unnamed. it has one of those proverbial four-inch steps in front of it. it is an old

friedman will need money and a lot of it. fortunately he is getting help from a bay area innovater. >> seniors make up 70% of the world's surface. >> pay pal cofounder has offered $8950,000. >> we have a great number of people focused on clean technology, green technology and alternate energy. it's an important problem and i think there are a lot of people working on it. we need to be working on some of the problems they have not been exploring. >> they are currently exploring locations for the first sea instead including off the coast of california and caribbean. >> but having this innovation. >> coming up next, 7 on your side. it can [ male announcer ] myron needed an mba to turn his technology into a business. so he chose a university where the faculty average over 14 years of experience in their fields... to help him turn a thesis into a business plan and accelerate the path between ideas...and actions. my name is myron sullivan, i'm developing a robotic system to clean up oil spills, and i am a phoenix.

tom friedman from the "new york times." >> rose: joining me from amman, jordan, is tom friedman, the columnist in for the "new york times". he's been in israel, he is in amman and i assume he will go to cairo soon. you wrote a column in which you said "we will know this region before egypt and after egypt." tell me what after egypt is going to look like and what's going to define it and what's going to characterize it and who's going to influence it? >> well, that's obviously in playwright now, charlie. today was an important day. obviously i'm watching the news here from cairo, from amman, like so many jordanians. and, you know, the sense i picked up today just from my own reporting on the street with people and conversation with both friends and professional people is that the situation in egypt seems to be getting out of control. certainly the... you know, the beating up of protestors, the beating up of the opposition that's manifested on the street and the beating up of journalists. and what i think that's doing is frightening just a lot of people in the region and if a week ago

after 40 years in print publishing, jane friedman has started an all-digital company. >> the ebook isenter of the universe. the ebook is what it's all about. >> reporter: an open road media is growing fast. how many ebooks you putting out a year? >> we did 420 this year. and we will do 2,000 next year. >> reporter: friedman believes ebooks cater to a new demand for convenience. >> i think that if you're on an airplane and you're reading a story about -- you're reading a feature about an author and you are one click away to then purchase that author's book, that's the best of all possible worlds. >> reporter: but for bookstores -- what do you think? >> it's disastrous. >> reporter: otto pensler owns new york's mysterious book shop which specialized in autographed mysteries and also publishes limited editions. >> that's kept us alive. for the last four or five years. >> reporter: but pensler who sells whodunits knows he's being stalked by a killer. >> every time somebody buys a kindle or a nook or a sony reader or whatever, it's another nail in the coffin of independent bookshops, inclu

it wasn't until 1968 that friedman wrote his paper and said, no permanent trade-off. temporary, not permanent. and that did have a big effect on the academic profession and, later, it had a big effect on the fed. but it didn't effect the nixon white house and the economists there who were still -- who believed what friedman had written but didn't want to put it into practice because they didn't want the unemployment rate to go as high as it was. and there was probably social support for that. but that is why we have an independent central bank, because they have to be bold enough to ignore social support, and that's not an easy thing to do. and i appreciate how difficult it may be, but that's what the advantage of independence is. it is that you do what is unpopular. and, you know, here's a man who did what was unpopular. [laughter] >> [inaudible] interestingly, arthur burns wrote a essay a couple years after he left office which explained his view of the 19750s very clearly -- 1970s very clearly. and the title of this speech is called "the anguish of central banking.

meetings where there was, clearly, a very strong difference of opinion between people like milton friedman and me who would represent the view that the fed would really be concerned about the inflationary consequences and the strength of the dollar, and the other view which was that unemployment was the most important problem and you'd have to coordinate policy. and that was the view, and that view was heavily represented by the vision that the phillips curve was the way in which we could make a permanent trade-off. it wasn't until 1968 that friedman wrote his paper and said no permanent trade-off, temporary not permanent. and that did have a big effect on the academic profession. and later it had a big effect on the fed. but it didn't affect the nixon white house and the economists there who were still, who believed what friedman had written but didn't want to put it into practice because they didn't want the unemployment rate to go as high as it was. ands there was probably social -- and there was probably social support for that, but that is why we have an independent central bank, beca

milton friedman wrote a lot about that.eople have been criticizing that because they want the government to spend more. we have a clear example. president bush in may of 2008 gave ever want a check. there was a rebate check. it was supposed to cause people to spend more money. there was no economic juice out of that and the second quarter of 2008. the public looked at it and said, great, the government gave me a portion of my money back and they will probably take a percentage in washington. the actual spending did not go up. host: our guest is the chief economist at bear stearns. our first call is from rick from california. caller: working-class republicans are the classchmp bt chumps on earth. forgive me for calling you a socialist, randi rhodes. guest: there was a huge amount of growth. in my testimony, i include a graph of the median incomes during that period of time. it came from a big surge in private sector jobs. extended in the reagan administration and into the clinton administration. unemployment was down to 3.8%

wayne friedman has more. >> having laid off 80 police last july following budget cuts the departmentnnounced it will hire ten of those officers back. the news came out of nowhere surprising even the head of the police union. >> obviously, i would like to have it be 80 however, you know it's a step in the right direction. >> in a city where there have been 70 shootings in january alone, the move has more symbolic value than practical impact but residents like don link says every officer on the street can help. >> it's not gonna turn the tide but it's a step in the right direction. >> last year the department had 800 officers. now through layoffs and attrition, the number's more like 656 with only 275 of them on patrol. john breeden is one of those officers that lost his job in the layoffs. his last six months have not been easy nor does he expect to be one of the ten hired back. >> trying to find another agency. there's so many officers out of jobs not just in oakland but throughout the state. >> i hope the officers see that the city's going in the right direction working together to

you have thomas friedman from the "new york times". you don't know who the players are. you don't know if your key allies, egypt and jordan are going to remain allies. we need to pray for the peace of jerusalem. this is what the joshua fund does to make a difference for israelis and palastinians on the ground. >> what would it mean for the minority christians in egypt? do you see they would face greater persecution depending on the government that comes to power? >> it is a good question, george. probably the million dollar question at this point. look, individual believers, none of us want to see our brothers and sisters go through persecution. however, from the lord's perfective, he allows it to strengthen the believers and mobilize christians around the world who haven't been paying attention to a particular country. gosh, we have to pray for support and encourage our brothers an sisters. that is what is happening in egypt. i was on the phone with our key allies and he was on the phone, the pastors they support in egypt, the good news is: more people are praying for t
