to do any less would stretch us even more thin in the years to come. politicians like to talk about waste and fraud, but waste and fraud alone will not make up the funding gap which prevents us from having the modernized force we need. so because i am a fiscal conservative, i believe that we need to shrink the costs of our government in other ways. in the debate over how to deal with ever-expanding entitlements, some of my fellow conservatives have pushed for plans with costly subsidies as a method for replacing obamacare. i believe that we need a health reform focused on the cost burden for the consumer and the taxpayer. so my health care plan would rely on reforms which lower costs and save taxpayers billions while fixing the existing inequity in the tax code. as we seek to bolster our military force, we also need to be willing to use the economic weapons at our disposal. while we all understand the disincentive of losing the ability to trade with us, we have another powerful weapon at our disposal now, one which the rest of the world wants and needs

there was less incentive to drill.lling activity declined by about 70% from the '55-'56 period to the low point in 1971 when fewer than 1,000 rigs ran in the united states. from '51 or '52 to '73 the dollar number was $3.25 for west texas crude. your purchasing power, of course, decreased all that time, and the costs obviously escalated during that 22 years. the american oil industry had other problems. to curb inflation, price ceilings were set in 1971 by the nixon administration. james schlesinger, the nation's first secretary of energy. if we attempted to control the price of oil or natural gas based upon the assumption that a 15% rate of return was the ceiling because there are so many failures, dry holes, we would discover that it would not have been the entrepreneurial activity in the industry that was necessary to maintain any activity. the control of price in a highly risky industry will destroy that industry. we were doing damage to the industry during the period of control. world oil prices kept rising. altho

, less heating, less smaller.exactly. >> and we talk about people being able to do more with fewer employees. and one place where you see that is in the growth of internet sales. if people are buying more online that's fewer people employed at the stores. and that is likely to continue. >> yes, one or two stores are making their stores no longer stores. they are basically showrooms. the sales people there do not have product on hand. they go right to their tablet, load your information online, and get shipped directly to your home. so the store has become a showroom, because this way they don't need the inventory and everything that goes along with that. the distribution hubs, the stockers, the cashiers, everything. it reduces the amount of employment and you still be able to touch, feel, and taste the product before you actually purchase it. >> and you like the ability to compare, and sit on your couch and get things delivered to your home. you and i talk about the economy looks stronger, jobs are being created,

>> well, it's been more or less the same. i mean as long as the european union presents a common front, then it's really we are all more or less on the same page, and, you know, the relations have not been warm, but they either. >> they are not getting worse? >> i mean i would say that president obama and prime minister cameron have been no less vocal than i have. >> what is your sense of how this unfolds? >> well, there is the miraculous situation which are everyone pulls back and we go back to whatever. otherwise, what we have to do is on supporting ukraine economically, and, also, on delayed depending upon actually the military situation. >> that's not what president obama poroshenko wants. he said we can't win a war with blankets. >> right. i mean you can also -- first of all, i think defensive weapons. >> ukraine has to do a lot. ukraine has -- they are a huge number offorms that they need to undertake. a lot would be difficult to do in warfare or times of war. but as soon as there is a peace established, then, really, u
