please welcome thomas friedman. ( cheers and applause ) thanks very much.o see you again. thanks for coming back. all right, it's been a few years since you've been here. just to remind the people who you are. yura a three time pulitzer award winning columnist. now of now year in a showtime documentary called "years of living dangerously." monday at 8:00 p.m. global warming, that big a deal? is it that big a deal? is itt has a scary name, global warming. how much of it is hype? >> well, if you look at the science what, they'll tell you is 97% of climate scientists believe that the plan set warming because of human-induced climate change. ice is melting, sea level rising. your beach home could be imperilled, as a result, among many other things. >> stephen: what! i have sunk some cash into my beach house, my friend. it's beachfront. >> is it in ohio? because that could be the beachfront you want in the future. >> stephen: wow. okay, you've got my attention. you've got my attention. what can we do about global warming because, you know, people say, okay, yeah

actually i'll just ask this one but maybe it's more directed to i'm sure deputy sheriff friedman. the 640 bed number, i know you said having it high and reducing it if we see a trend of reducing the jail population, i'm just wondering, given the previous hearings we have had with the decrease from different alternative programs in the community and a lot of the people that are opposed to a new jail have been saying the number should be reduced downward and i'm wondering why that 640 number is on the high end of the 688 versus in the middle of the 481 to the 688 bed range. i'm wondering if deputy sheriff friedman or miss kaylor could address that question. >> well, to go to both issues that you have raised, the use of what we call alternatives to incarceration or to pre-sentence release programs are well established, well in place, have been for some 20-plus years and will continue to be used. and in terms of ultimate bed count for the replacement facility, we continue to work with controller's office and the jail planning team to regularly review what the appropriate number is. >>

was that tom friedman? a series of showtime exploring climate change. joining us now from washington, "new york times" columnist thomas friedman who is also a correspondent for the series. >> tom, that was shot in such a way -- >> i thought it was james bond. >> exactly. >> my good ps. >> amazing what they can do in hollywood. >> actually, you're shedding light on an issue we need to talk about. >> i totally got the issue wrong. let's go to the right issue. climate change. talk about the series. it looks incredible. >> what were we looking at? >> it's an amazing nine-part series really looking at how climate change, environmental stresses are playing out on the ground in real life. i was involved in four episodes. one was in syria looking at the drought in northern syria that was one of the stressors that provoked the uprising. that was yemen where we were visiting a town in central yemen where if you turn on your tap, you get water once every 30 to 40 days. and we were covering two villages fighting over a

it's always sort of these outside experts like i would include friedman as one of them because he wasnot just being an academic economist, he was being a sort of development expert in his involvement in policy. but they're really part of the problem. most of the time these kind of attempts to force sort of free market policies implemented by autocrats on other societies have led to backlash rather than success as they did in chile. and i think that what's really missing in that is a more unified respect for both the political and economic rights of the poor, for both political and economic freedom. that these cannot be split apart and say, well, we want economic freedom, and we don't care as much about political freedom. that's not really viable as a welfare statement. people themself do not separate their rights in that way. and there's no evidence that, you know, it's difficult enough to get some kind of body of evidence on the competing stories of democracy versus autocracy. it's really almost impossible to get any kind of -- [inaudible] on what is the right transition path. i thin

milton friedman was wrong. thatess is not business your companies, your organizations are some of the richest, most powerful resources we have in our great countries. but we need to do and he went on is we need to tap into your employees and we need to tap into your product. and everything that is going on in your organizations and you need to get out there and help our boys and girls clubs and ymcas and build safe places and do mentoring and tutoring for you to can integrate her corporations with the community that they exist in. you do not have walls around to hear that separate you from those that you are living next to. it was inspiring. he ended it and he said, just remember this area to get out there and do something for the people. said, wow, i have a second guru. hearing this and now i am in philadelphia hearing the same message and i said to myself, i think i am getting at here. i am understanding what is coming through me. i tell you what. and i back to oracle talked to my boss and said we have to cre

was milton friedman was the court economist for the reagan administration how is friedman and reaganomics different from what pickett is described well i mean look it's night and day i mean there is a theory which which picotee like many economists before him decimates the the fiction of a free market economy being a regulating force in a stabilizing force that eventually. friedman is not the only most visible symbol of this but the idea that a rising tide lifts all boats the idea that if you everybody competes that self interest and competition ultimately leads to the ideal outcome something that these guys try to pin on older economists like adam smith who have a lot of ideas they wouldn't have brought in a really big and so that would not go along with their moral sentiments yet they are that we're out of time i'm sorry and thanks so much for you guys than i once again was the web site this is the zero hour dot com got it thanks. each team. is the good the bad is a very very cold a generally ugly the good the golden state warriors according to sports columnist marcus thompson the team

milton friedman, who would ever have thought that? sweden is interesting. chile is interesting. look at crime. >> this is a great debate in the united states. how do you lower taxes, or raise taxes, and at the same time have a hard look at entitlements, and raising revenue? >> that is is that what we need. the problem with america is you have something so ideologically polarizing, they don't trust each other. an interesting example is what happens in sweden. they hit this big government and they collectively decided they had to look for pragmatic solutions, taking ideas from the left and right, and putting a balanced budget at the heart of everything. fixing long-term entitlements. it is possible for democratic countries to do it. very hard given the state of washington. >> they said we have to deal with pensions problems. in america, they never prepared to back it. europe in some ways is worse. you're going to see complete catharsis when europe goes. the most telling was from the prime minister of luxembourg. he said we all know what to do, we just don't know how we can get ele

. >> and do you believe it was a mistake also, as some do -- tom friedman being one that comes to mind-- to push nato membership in front of the georgians and talk about it for the ukrainians, scaring the death out of the russians? >> yes, it was a mistake. some of the worst mistakes and foreign policy are made when you are on top. failing to take yes for an answer or not realizing when you've gone far enough. that thenizing russians could never deal strategically with ukraine being either a nato member or full eu member right near there but -- their borders is something that we should have understood. >> what should ukraine be? >> of course, both brezinski and kissinger said, as soon as this thing happened, said finland. i'm not even sure that finland is enough, that the russians could tolerate as much of a relationship with the west that finland has in ukraine. but as i said, i think ukraine has to be a buffer state. and it will -- the other piece of this that just doesn't get talked about nearly enough is that so much of what is happening that is bad is the ukrainians fault. they ha

penalty likely to be innocent the managing editor of a magazine reporting on criminal justice alex friedman believes that the authorities should be more transparent about the executions. there's no question that bad things are happening or resulting from the use of these new and largely untested drugs that the government is not providing information on where they got them or in some cases what the drugs are the state purports that it is executing people on behalf of the public to keep the public safe as part of the the public criminal justice system and so on if that's the case then the public has a right to know what is going on during that process so what drugs they're using and what the effects of the drugs are and where those drugs came from the notion that our government can execute people basically in secret using drugs that they're not disclosing where they got them from or what the drugs are is a great immoral issue pre-election violence in iraq and i look at why washington finds a bearing to pick with our tea that and more after the break to stay with us. ah. ok we will stand for e
