wiped out it's their own fault i don't and i'm not going to miss a bad thing so canada should merge gallup polls they looked at the situation in the economy in america and these numbers of the disappointing sales for all the middle class sort of jobs and they looked and saw you know what's actually going on they don't deeper into the economy the headline news gallup slams lid on hopes for us economy and the reason why they slammed the lids on the u.s. economy is because of what well we have a federal reserve bank americans never stop the formation of it from one nine hundred thirteen they kind of resists the beginning and they've allowed this system that is the dollar tyranny around the world and that is the results of what gallup found was that the problem has happened is that the costs of necessities have skyrocketed so groceries gasoline utilities health care toilet paper and rent more . americans are spending more than they were the previous year and fewer of them are spending less and the things they're spending less on the you know the wants the desires of a mass consuming society so

and gallup has an interesting way to measure this. one is what we call well-being. this started in the 1930's with george gallup. we started studies to try to look at this. and it really kind of went on turbocharge when we launched the world poll. so we have been measuring 98% of the world's population and well-being and here's what i want to tell you. 2450es are not just soft measures that sound like nice things for us to keep account of. they are actually very hard predictors of key performance indicators. one example. health care cost burden. may be bankrupting our country right now. $2.7 trillion health care tab. if you have an employee that's -- we on -- they have don't have to get employees thriving on all five. one, two, three, four, all of those drop health care cost burdens implemently. we also measure what we call workplace engagement. the reason why we really care about sit we found a handful of -- that are predicters i'll point out a couple of interesting ones. you say you have someone who cares about your development. there's that funny word care showin

numbers, and that gallup chart is pretty arresting, i mean, the numbers really dropped, is that what was anticipated inside hhs? i mean, how much uncertainty was there about the rate at which this would work when implemented? >> well, certainly in the earliest days we always talked about when health reform is fully implemented, but there's so many different uncertainties between the election, second election, the supreme court ruling. the funding was always constrained in terms of what the federal government thought that it would need. there's so many factors working against us that it's thrilling on many levels to see how far we've come. to your earlier point, we have much more work to do particularly with some of the vulnerable populations, minority populations and low income. that is something that the federal government and the state governments are already starting to tackle well in advance of the second enrollment season. so i expect that we're going to see a continued trend, positive trend in terms of those that are covered. >> yeah, i'd love to run those numbers if you had fu

. >> welcome to the gallup organization. we have a couple people that will speak, and then i will introduce our new best-selling author. his book is number one on amazon movers and shakers list. and you're not following it closely. thirtysomething. so congratulations on that. [applause] really important american here today, and for those of you who no galop, our biggest business sector around the world is actually banking. we have a lot of sectors for all kinds of corporations, but our biggest sector is banking. banking has been a very good friend to this organization. i am on john's board of operation. i think most of you know that john has built a colossus organization, operation hope and john, i would say, board members to my best friends of banks of operation hope. the banks have an organization here in town that is a powerhouse for financial services round table, and the ceo's here today. i really admire the financial services round table because it was a really popular, dandy governor of the state of minnesota. form of

all this to say, looks like the koch brothers are somewhat responsible, as this new gallup data shows. that's the good news. there's also some pretty interesting data that shows those gains are pretty inequality distributed among different groups. take, for instance, the percentage of the uninsured by age. the largest decline in the uninsured among folks between the ages of 18 to 39. for a program that was looked at by some members of the right as, "reparations," the racial group that's done the least well under obamacare by far is african-americans. joining me, dora hughes, former councilor for science and public health to former secretary kathleen sebelius at department of human health and service. now works as a senior policy adviser. how do you account for that tremendous racial disparity in the decline of the uninsured that we're seeing so far? >> well, certainly i think the findings from this latest commonwealth fund survey were surprising that it showed such a little decline. earlier analysis put out by the federal government shows that if you just looked at the population, the

a new gallup poll shows america, the land of the free, has slid to 36th place in the world in freedom. we're now behind cambodia, uzbekistan a uzbekistan. >> i think the use of the president of executive orders, of absolutely -- the congress not doing anything about it. not trying to curb the president. the constitution was written for the purpose of protecting its citizens from the excesses of its own government. and that is not what has been done. the government is operating pro forma to do things that it thinks are better for its citizens. all wrong. >> michelle, we dropped 24 spots under president obama in freedom. any surprise? >> it's not surprising. we have an administration that spies on us, an administration that wants to tell businesses what kind of birth control they have to provide for their employees. we thought we elected a president who was a professor of constitutional law. instead what we got is a president that wants to rip up the constitution. >> john, what about it? we should be aspiring to be more free and instead we're sliding. >> well, define what freedom means.

it is the democratic faithful. >> gallup had a poll from june 11, she still had a 90% approval ratingo she is still very favorable among her base. it has dropped among independents a little bit. she is still very high amongst her base, going to say are we kind of overrating into hillary clinton as a candidate? i think she is most viable democratic nominee and she is declared candidate making pendants and press have to treat her as that word will be professionally negligent not to look into her background and treat her as a serious contender she is. jon: the most recent fox poll has her at 51% favorable, 41% unfavorable rating. some of those numbers are come crashing down to earth as, well, as people hear more about her tenure as secretary of state, the look at the book launch and so forth. >> that will happen more and more as she is on public. the best thing for hillary clinton writes now is to just not make news because if she could just stay out of the news, she would stay on top. when you going to the news you have a lot of people watching you and you will be scrutinized and your p

the gallup poll polled individuals around the country. here are the numbers. 13% of the adults they want to leave their own country permanently. gallup interviewed 501,366 and the top destination the this. look how many people want to live in the united states. these are potential migrants. 138 million want to be here in the u.s. 42 million in the uk. 37 million in canada. and 31 million in france, sean. >> by the way that number is huge. i guess what that says if we don't, if people come in the country illegally, don't respect our laws and sovereignty and we don't sends it back what message does you want send to the 138 million. there's no consequences. >> let's compare the numbers to the bush administration, compare his administration to barack obama's administration. in 2008 during president bush's administration 8,143 were turned away and deported. under his administration. 2008. let's look at 2013 during president obama's administration, 1,669 turned away and deported. so 8,000 in 2008 and then now 1,000. these numbers come from i.c.

since gallup started track at 13.4%. hhs put out a study showing for all the americans, millions of americans that got financial assistance, the average premium they are paying each month is $69. commonwealth fund put out a survey showing 80% of people that used coverage are happy with what they have gotten. what we are seeing here is story after story, study after study is showing that the ac are a is working. it's affecting real people. >> jamal, republicans are giving the same responses to questios s they gave four years ago. listen to speaker boehner today. >> the discussion continues. trying to build consensus around one plan. not there yet. >> he's still looking for a replacement? check out how senator ted cruz reacted to that ruling that came down and that would threaten subsidies? listen to cruz. >> it rejected president obama's lawlessness. with regard to bank. the matter will be appealed. i think the ruling was correct. it highlights the brazen lawlessness of president obama with obamacare. >> he's using the ru

when gallup began tracking congress have poll numbers been this low and no wonder as congress continues to disappoint the american people the house ethics committee has discreetly altered its disclosure requirements for congressional members making it that much harder for both press and the average person to verify spending artie's a mirror david brings us more on this development. fall government watchdog groups and some democrats are outraged this week over a quiet alteration of reporting requirements on congressional trips this is specifically in reference to trips funded by outside groups one of our learning is that the house at the committee without any public announcement dropped the requirement that lawmakers must include information of any privately sponsored trips in their annual financial disclosure forms now to be clear lawmakers would still have to seek ethics committee approval for these trips and disclose them publicly through the website of the house office of the clerk tom ross and that the committee spokesman says that this change was not meant to minimize transparency

gallup took this poll about two months ago, unfavorable numbers of both parties.ng republicans, clocked at 34 favorable, 59 unfavorable. among democrats, clocked in at 44 favorable, 50 unfavorable. i look at that and say those are not great numbers for either party. that's a ten-point gap right there. it seems like it might be an issue for republicans. >> in congressional races i don't think it is. i think people vote on the candidates and the members of congress themselves who are running. i think that's the approval, the individual person's approval that matters. and then separating themselves from the problems in washington. the other thing that is a real issue here is the president's approval rating which is in the tank -- >> we can put that up on the screen. this week's gallup poll. >> when you look at the states and districts where these are playing out, i haven't seen one poll, including whether obama won, where he is not under water with voters. he's very unpopular. i don't think the democrats would want to send him to any of these races in the country bec

the uninsured rate has decreased sharply, says the gallup group. since the affordable care act's requirement for most americans to have health insurance went into effect at the beginning of 2014. so, mr. president, in the fourth quarter of 2013, the average was 17.1%. it's now down to 13.4%. this is remarkable. now, mr. president, carrying on with the information about -- from "the new york times." the people who've gotten new coverage -- we heard all the cries about how upset the people were, that -- with the new health insurance. but they're very happy with the new product. 73% of the people who bought health care plans, 80% of those who signed up for the medicaid said they were either very satisfied or very -- or somewhat satisfied. that's 73%. with their new health insurance. 74% of newly insured republicans like their plans. 77% of the people who had insurance before, including members of the much-publicized group whose plans got canceled last year, are happy with their new coverage. this survey also said that a majority of people are using th

"gallup poll" actually released today, 17% of the american people now rate the immigration problem as the nation's top problems, okay? that number has tripled since june. ranks above unemployment and concerns about economy in the united states. talk about harry reid and charles krauthamer calling him out of touch or detached from reality, harry reid is not only detached from reality in the situation, detached in reality what the american people want and concerned about and what their needs are. >> what the border actually looks like. it is 1189 miles. we secured at last check, 651 miles of that. if you're spending a billion to help build more fence line, harry reid is not paying attention. how can it be secure when you have so many holes? >> he is telling you what he wants to do. he wants to deal with the narrow issue. he wants to deal what is happening right now. take care of the kids. he is not interesting in dealing with broader issue of border security. they're not interested in making sure this does not happen again. this is not part of the plan, something they will not get behin

jon: new polling on the 2016 presidential race seems to gift edge to hillary clinton with gallup finding she is the best-known and best-liked of all the potential candidates out there. take a look how she stacks up against possible democratic challengers. she is way ahead of massachusetts senator elizabeth warren and does better than vice president biden. still there are whispers she is making some of the same missteps she made in 2008, last time she ran for the white house, namely focusing too much on her resume' and not enough on her vision for the future. jonathan allen, bloomberg washington bureau chief, coauthor of a piece that reads, while clinton has touched on policy issues in her new memoir and steady schedule of speeches andviews she has yet to draw a full portrait where she wants to lead the country. jonathan allen, coauthor of the piece. jonathan, she hasn't said she isn't running is she expected to lay out vision for the future if she isn't even running? she has time to do that. she essentially has been running for president since 2006. we heard why she has experience, resum

a gallup poll came out and the numbers speak for themselves. john? you're right it is widespread in this country. look at how it's gone up in, what, seven year. >> 0%. i mean, this is unbelievable. john is absolutely right, julie. we are talking about a crisis of confidence in our government that threadens the viability of all our institutions, something that pat has weighed in eloquently on just recently. >> we'll get into that in just a moment. we have a few polls here, one asking americans whether losingal all confidence in all branches. in 2014, actually less people are less confident in the supreme court as opposed to last year, less confidence in the presidency? >> if you go to the right-hand column, that's the lowest numbers. >> it's just getting worse and worse. >> so the supreme court is really -- >> congress is no surprise. people are very disappointed but it seems, though, pat, not only are the american people frustrated, obviously president obama is. he can't seem to get anything through congress. he takes matters into his own hands, beca

his job approval now is about i think 40% in the latest gallup and that's a pretty big drop from where he was not too long ago. >> it seems like karl, it was the irs scandal. it really started to be the impetus for poll numbers. now we see it with other issues. i want to ask you. this a lot of people are encouraged when they hear this buyer's remorse for mitt romney. how familiar does this translate into the next election? okay great. we didn't vote for him. how much does this help republicans the next time around the party that put up a a candidate like mitt romney? >> well, it really doesn't. these things are not transferable from candidate to candidate it is an object lesson it says republicans better come with a candidate who can shape an optimistic and forward-looking vision that allows him to say we can do better than the obama years. we can do better than what the democrats are offering. we are going to have a positive and optimistic growth agenda that is going to include every american. this was like, in 1979 and 1980, it was critical not only to be able to criticize the mistak

. >> there's a gallup poll out today indicating 17% of the american public feels immigration is the most pressing problem in this country. that is up from 12% last summer. >> as hinge silverberg -- hank silverberg tells us, the issue was on the agenda both inside and outside the white house today where a few hundred people gathered for a rally. >> reporter: inside the white house members of the hispanic caucus were meeting with president obama to again talk about what to do with immigration reform, but when people gathered in front of the executive mansion who live in d.c., maryland and virginia, it has always been a top priority. ruth diaz originally from el salvador lives in maryland with her 5-year-old son. she works at a carwash and says she pays taxes. >> i think the people who want to deport all the immigrants are wrong because we are working very hard here in this country. they think we are criminals, but it's not true. we came here to work. >> reporter: the message here is about families like that of 15-year-old jalena farrow, born here after her mother came from mexico. >> my fa

citizens across the country coming from that gallup poll?k the key focus here is that these are children we're talking about. we're not talking about hardened criminals. we're not talking about people trying to run into the country illegally. these are kids showing up at the border and presenting themselves and saying that they need safe haven and seeking refuge. the timing is really crucial right now. house speaker john boehner came forward this week saying that he was not optimistic that any type of legislation would go through congress before legislators leave for a month-long break. and that timing happens in a very crucial time and that's when initial emergency funding for these kids could begin to run out, and also, when political will will be an even larger obstacle ahead, considering we'll be even closer to the upcoming midterm elections. >> well, what they probably did not expect, as even the most ardent supporters of immigration reform there in d.c., it's now part of what we're talking about today. they had pretty much dismissed it

now a recent gallup poll in which a bottom or putin's popularity seems to skyrocketed according to this poll and this is all from the last year while the popularity of the u.s. and e.u. has plummeted so how are the sanctions going to be effective if they're having this effect well that that was my earlier point aaron and that is that sanctions do have an effect the way they are whacking the russian economy but do they achieve their stated political goal and that is to you know change behavior or lead to some kind of the good. over problems that the various parties have with each other and the answer to that is no and look at putin's popularity i mean the polls i see and he's up about eighty percent or something like that he's certainly got a he's certainly more popular than president obama or if you go to europe but you go down to the bottom of the barrel you've got president. francis i think he's in the low twenty's his popularity in the public opinion polls so most of the western leaders have very low ratings the u.s. congress of course is much lower than obama and the congress is rea

. >>> according to almost every poll out there faith in our political institution, the gallup poll conducteds than a month ago has congress's approval rating at 16%, on pace to be the lowest ever for a mid-term election year, no doubt the dissatisfaction is driven in part, i expect, special interests and big money are calling the shots. joining me to talk about ethics, jack abramoff, before his fall from grace was considered perhaps the most powerful lobbyist in all of washington. jack abramoff, good to have you back on the program. >> thank you, tavis. >> most of us know the back story of what happened some years ago when the sentencing to prison and serving time and coming out. as you look back on the that period now, without calling into question too much, what do you make of your life then? >> i think my life then was basically enmeshed in the washington sort of power structure and what goes on in washington. and i have great regret that i allowed myself to get in there. but having been in there, i was able to see from at least the inside what some of the problems are. i didn't realize t

when you're twenty five years old in brain you know it is an actual we just did a study with the gallup poll organization and we found that young people did have memory complaints about fourteen percent of them were that we also found that the older you get the more likely you are to live a healthy lifestyle the older you get for it is probably one of the. reasons may be that if you don't live a healthy lifestyle you're not going to live to old age and also when you get older you notice the negative impact of smoking and being overweight and drinking too much do we learning more about the criminal brain you know the criminal brain is a sociopathic brain these are people that have no sense of guilt the lie all the time how do we explain that you know i think part of it is genetic and a part of it is going to be environmental many times sociopaths you just can't cure them so we published the study with ninety murderers and what we found significantly lower frontal lobe function and other researchers have found the same thing i mean this is just such an important the front part is such an

i think you saw from historic gallup polling that they are in a similar neighborhood. -- historical trends are powerful things to get away from. some folks say they don't count anymore. i think they do. 50's,ok going back to the no president has picked a seat in their second term. 1950 they lost six seats. i think this president, his unpopularity is going to be a real drag. you will hear talk of legacy brands, both that on the legislation, they are tied to a legislative agenda that is unpopular. directed ant has political career. and their political resume to get rehired in the same job. have and even worse view of congressional republicans. what do persuadable voters do if that is their choice? >> it is important to see that slide this in the message of the president. that hunk ofg votes right now. it is important we have a positive agenda that highlights the incompetence of this administration, but offers an alternative. campaign is in the process of developing. this election is going to be driven about where things are. presidential elections are about midterm elections about the presen

a new gallup poll revealing the impact of the tens of thousands of illegal immigrants who have been floating across the southern border. and this includes the lack of border security. the number of americans who consider this to be the most important problem reaching 17%, that's up from 5% and the highest number of illegal immigration that has ever registered in nepal. the emergence of immigration is the top issue in the minds of americans reported as the government unveiled a plan complete with tennis courts and hot tubs and cable television and wifi into a juvenile illegal facility and all this at a cost of $60 million to taxpayers. the plan scrapped by health and human services it will cause of what they claim to be the u.s. drug policy being blamed for the search of illegal immigrants to the u.s. border. hernando said the root cause is that the united states and colombia carried out this operation in the fight against drugs. in mexico did at pushing drug traffickers into el salvador. >> the border is secure. we talked to the caucus today and he says that we can send now without any equiv

carrying guns and lastly elicit a look at how americans view their freedom in the land of the free a new gallup poll is out that says americans are growing increasingly dissatisfied with their freedom to choose what they do with their lives since two thousand and six that dissatisfaction has jumped twelve points how do you think americans define freedom and what do you think is really contributing to that decline. well good for americans that they're recognizing what is happening we're mad as hell we don't want to take it anymore. edward snowden thank you add to edward snowden varieties and they monitor one hundred ten million rise in users a year excuse me users every single day stop this isn't good this is growing in court encroachment by the government we've got militarization of our police forces stop this needs to end. a police recruitment video commercial running in southern new mexico that has swat a tired law enforcement officers next to armored vehicles breaking down doors this is what law enforcement has come to in this country stop we need to be mad as hell we don't want to take it a

recent memory there were three good peaceful years but this is a 2008 we had some quiet years but the gallup poll is surprising because showing that popularity among the religious groups. american muslims overwhelmingly approve this president does that surprise you or tell you anything how he handles the of the least? >> it does not surprise me at all it is natural they would have the different degree of the identification with the muslim community. cheryl: in particular many say we do have a responsibility to help israel defend itself. how many companies are listed on the nasdaq that our israeli? this is a stronger relationship but again with the middle east border pressure now egyptians, civic the most critical thing is the fact of the radicals now have control over weaponry to threaten israel. when they send missiles that is something we have not seen and hundreds and hundreds have been fired imagine what would have happened for mexico from the other side with weapons-grade that not only is important that that white -- right kind of forehead to have the damage so they have no choice to ma

in our gallup poll 62% of people said they are for sending the children back. i don't think that's out of frustration or anger or being satan or mean. it's out of compassion. better place for these children is not languishing for years wait fog a hearing, it's better to go back to their families and have a better legal process to allow them to come in to this country. >> i hear from most conservatives and most republicans the word law. they break the law by doing this. and it is true, in fact, the law has been broken. but also there are hundreds of thousands of u.s. businessmen who break the law every year by hiring them. do i hear one peep out of republicans or conservatives about that. i do not. no, no. >> that's what e-verify is all about. >> i would like to see somebody -- show me -- >> there's e-verify requires you to make sure that you're paying a legal immigrant. >> which means a lot are not doing it. why don't you arrest them. >> look. colorado legalized pot, right? that's breaking the law a federal law, right? >> what does that have to do? >> the point

a gallup poll came out recently that only six percent of the american people are worried about the debt. and the president continues to say we are bringing down year-to-year debt. it has been brought down and have since i took office in 2009, he says. guest: that is a lot of the reason people are not worried about the situation. in the past couple of years, it was on the forefront of the national agenda. people knew it was an issue. we had government shutdowns. we all must have defaults. we were doing a lot of things in washington focused on the deficit and debt. not a lot of productive things and we did not make as much progress as we should have, but recently the president has been talking about how we have cut the deficit in half. what he is not talking about is that the deficit is still very high and projected to grow way over the long term in a way that will cause it to grow it in -- at an unsustainable rate. the president is talking about with the deficit having come down, i would argue that is not really what is important, and could be bad for the economy. you do not want to redu

you know, am i making a mistake by saying it is good reign am i right or is built right in the gallupl? >> i hate to be contrary in, but i think that bill could be right. i think consumer confidence is a little bit engineer. and it's because people have greater access to credit right now. >> i get clients all the time that it is. unfortunately, a lot of people have not been buying stocks. >> there are 77 million people that are in that, the collectors are calling them because they can pay off their credit cards. >> but you said that we have been cheering mediocrities and i think that that is a trend. >> it was like the numbers came out, the companies came out,. >> i do think that we are kind is cheering us. and it's been a highest point since 2008. but they are feeling more confident. >> the american public and we are still all about getting the good but not paying for them and i think that there is a trust issue here, there's a big trust issue with respect to the financial system and we haven't quite worked through that yet and that will take some time. >> also in your mind, people w
