mark mark you cannot separate economy and debt if you're suggesting that the debt is caused because of bad economic performance if you look at western europe industrialized larger economies over the last thirty years compare them to the economy in the us with the major difference being a larger socialist spending agenda in europe do you realize that the us. g.d.p. on an annual basis has been thirty percent greater for thirty years than that of europe so to segregate policy in the economy is really a very large mistake they go hand in hand in the economy but you still get. grand marnier you calculate product and the way you calculate productivity is that the united states is more productive in europe than we thought because americans walketh longer if you control for the most productive economy in the world is simply the swedes you actually hear about one being said much but it's true as the whole notion of a big social auto europe the running in debt and having terrible or growth most of that was a self-inflicted wound from the seattle monetarist treaties of maastricht after this you then have a situation whereby we're going to take even more growth of the economy i don't deny that is there and it's there that's a problem what i worry about is the asymmetry of the put why is when you have a situation let's take the united states and nine hundred eighty the top one percent united states or affectively eight percent of the income then of twenty four percent of the income and the idea is let's give them the bush tax cuts let's give them an extra one percent so they got twenty five percent of the income he has now make a difference how is this going to get us out of a problem or by you go to consumption led a corner me and you consumers can't consume because they're totally stretched with debt that's what i'm not hearing from the are steadily people what i hear is basically a protestant morality tale ron you want to reply to that. sure sure look yes we are a consumer based economy and guess what when the economy's not going to perform well at these debt levels we don't consume i mean you've got a deflationary trend in there very strong not dissimilar as i think as you pointed out to japan in the from one thousand nine hundred nine all the way through the last what they call the last decade but was really the last decades if you get the machine economic machine going again ok we had these debt levels two years ago there were three different and we were consuming it's about economic performance the rest fixes itself austerity makes it even that much better all we have to do is . talk with this may about tax cuts look at one thousand nine hundred two we had a recession in a financial crisis the equal of this and what happened just the opposite we cut taxes we reduced the growth of spending in the growth in government in that triggered the twenty five years of the greatest global economic growth ever witnessed so to suggest. taxes only benefits the wealthy that is the word is left in the face to flies in the face of the evidence out there go ahead mark the evidence. of the united states the united the united states did not start generating massive unsustainable budget deficits on dollar on old reagan didn't cut talks is under increased the size of government i believe you actually look at the statistics you'll find votes when both the deficit goes negative the budget deficit goes chronic is not balanced until clinton in one nine hundred ninety nine so you're very selective in the american economy story you want to tell everyone and frankly over here and you know i just look at the results look at twenty five years and i hear a lot of people who say the country has to spend what do you say the u.s. is bad for that's the result of bankruptcy general you want to jump in there and i want to talk about words and i want to. go there oh yes. thank you peter the situation about ronald reagan. is a watershed event in america and he came in and he promised to balance the budget when he left when he began his first term we owed nine hundred ei

mark sayre reports, that's not the only increase that they approved. mark, good morning. >>> reporter: good morning. a lack of protestors at the regents meeting where these fee hikes were approved but no lack of long-term impact on students. regents approved a tuition hike of 8% for the university system's 181,000 students. in addition, fees written creased on some professional degree programs. and while the university did expand full tuition coverage for students with family incomes under $80,000 a year, those who will pay these new higher tuition costs are very concerned. >> that's terrible. i mean, i don't know a lot of students who can afford the hike. i think i'm going to have to apply for scholarships if that's the case. >> reporter: at the same time the tuition and fees were going up, regents still found money for some staff and faculty already making six figures. there is a new $230,000 position at uc-san francisco, an 11% raise for the director of the lawrence berkeley lab and one researcher at uc-davis received a 55% pay hike. these new fees go into effect the next school year in the fall. and this is the sixth fee increase for the university of california system in the past four years. so they are really feeling it. >> they are. kids are going to have to make some tough choices. mark, thanks very much. mark sayre in santa clara. >>> the richmond teenager who was gang-raped outside a homecoming dance last year will be receiving a financial settlement from the school district. that is according to the contra costa times. meantime, more testimony today in the preliminary hearing to determine whether seven suspects will stand trial. those suspects range in age from 16 to 43. yesterday a nurse testified that the girl who was 16 at the time told her she remembered drinking brandy with five people outside the dance and then blacking out. >>> spider dan, remember him? he goes on trial this morning for climbing san francisco's fourth tallest building. that's 55-year-old dan goodwin. he is facing several misdemeanor charges for his labor day stunt on the millennium tower. goodwin says he was just trying to draw attention to how vulnerable skyscrapers are to terrorist attacks and to raise awareness about cancer. >>> part of a law aimed at keeping tabs on sex offenders will r

mark shields and david brooks. mark, is there a philosophy difference on the table here tonight? i mean, are people voting because they are... they want... or is it about a specific thing they want changed? are they being driven by a philosophy or being driven mostly by facts on their ground? >> well, i think there's always a philosophical element to every election, jim. people have a predisposition for one party and what that party's priorities are. but i think this is a reality- based election. i think this is an election that people voted for the democrats in 2008 that promised first of all a change. the way washington worksçózv tt hasn't happened. but more importantly to people their own lives are not better. the economy is not better. >> lehrer: that affects liberals as well as conservatives. >> and independents. >> lehrer: do you agree with that? >> 60% of it is the economy. the economy ised bad. people are fearful over the next two years. they expect their own situation to get worse, a lot of people. i do think there's a philosophical layer on top of that. do you support or oppose the obama policies? they clearly do not. health care is quite unpopular. stimulus package has remained quite unpopular. the democrats bet their political prospects on the idea that if they borrowed $800 billion from the future that they could stimulate enough growth to give people some faith in the economy. and that has been rejected i think. if the polls turn out to be correct. i don't think it's an embrace of the republican agenda. but the idea that we were in for another new deal or a permanent democratic majority i do that certainly has been hit. >> i don't think there's any question that we had a defining election in 2004. that the republican majority, karl rove the architect and there wasn't going to be a democratic majority for the next 40 years in 2008. both of those have been corrected. i think the emphasis on the deficit is fascinating because we've been through, you know, a decade where we had two wars that were unfunded. we've had a prescription drug bill that was unfunded. we've had a tax cut that weren't paid for. you know, so all of a sudden wake up, it's like the piano player in the house of ill repute. oh, my goodness there's a deficit going on. >> this is actually the acheechl of the republicans somehow. they're at least as responsible as the democrats. yet i think because of the tea party, people have a sense and this vind vindicated in the polls that the republicans are not like the tom delay republicans. they've changed. the tea partyists have said we're totally different. whether you disapprove or approve of the tea party that sense has caught on among independent voters. >> lehrer: david, pick up on what markaid. two wars. why is it that neither of these wars is an issue in this campaign? >> well, 9.6% unemployment. that's part of it. the second part i think is because the people who served in the military are a minority. that's become the military service is often passed along from father and mother to son and daughter. so there's become a separation. it's had a much less pervasive effect on society than it did in the past. the final thing i guess i would say is 65% of americans think this country is in decline. that's reflected the poll after poll and the anxiety that undergirds this entire election. so when you have a sense my kids are going to live in a declining country that sort of does overwhelm everything else. >> it's a terrible indictment. it really is of our political process and political parties and our leadership. >> lehrer: we're not talking about.... >> the most memorable speech of this whole political year was not given by any candidates or anything or any office holder. i

mark halperin is in washington. out of sight, out of mind. >> that was weird. >> washington's own mark halperin who actually got in three words last hour. we're going to let him talk a little more. >> so handsome. >> we did get him in on the most important item of the day is how they still let you smoke inside in vegas. >> i want to hear with him on that. >> god bless las vegas. also at the table, the host of the dylan ratigan show, dylan ratigan. mika, before we go to break, i want to say to you, everybody loves bad news. >> death and destruction. >> everybody said after the election the end was near. >> democracy would be over. >> i'm excited because this deficit commission came out with proposals that were austere. they were tough. i actually think they should have been tougher on the retirement age, but a lot of things that are politically impossible to implement. yet, look what's happened. >> who put together this deficit commission? >> barack obama. >> look what happened. these people come out, they give their proposal, the president doesn't back off. he doesn't send trial balloons out which is a really sleazy way to kill an idea. you have an aide do something. the president has not done that. he could have very easily done that. harry reid has been responsible and said, hey, let's listen. mitch mcconnell has been responsible. john boehner has been responsible. nancy pelosi was irresponsible but she backed down. there is, it seems, peer pressure in washington, d.c. among leaders to be responsible on this issue, and i think that's very good. i'm excited. >> well, except paul krugman really is bummed out about this. >> what a shock. >> he's one of the foremost analysts of where our economy is going. >> nobel prize winner i believe. >> the highjack commission. >> he says they're ideologues which i think speaks volumes about paul krugman. >> dylan ratigan, we talk all the time about how washington needs to be responsible with our debt. they just put out some extraordinarily unpopular items. cut middle class entitlements and raise taxes. >> and i think as a document it is a very good conversation starter because it brings you to the tax code which is obviously incredibly complex and in my opinion highly rigged. you can buy tax loopholes. the unfairness in this country starts inside the tax code. so it starts that conversation. >> by the way, dylan, that's why -- you talk to any lobbyist on k street, they'll tell you they're not there to get money for their companies, but to punch a hole in the tax code. >> i can remember sitting maybe last fall in senator widen's office in d.c., he said do you want to see where all your money leaves? he said that's where all the tax loopholes are created, in that room right there. we'll get stuck in that ditch. the point is thising doment initiates some of the core flaws, whether it is the tax code, whether it is the unwillingness to engage on the entitlement program, i think those will very good things. i think you need to be careful when you don't look at the inefficiencies that playing this country and the extractions that are still under way both in the financial industry and in trade because when you're coming with austerity, when you're coming with cuts at a time when there's still an extraction going on, the behavioral economics of that can be very -- can have a lot of blowback. people feel like the game is rigged in favor of certain people. then you're creating an austerity program on the other side of the room. >> got to be fair. if you're going to take -- if you're going to take it out of somebody's hide, you have to take it out of everybody's hide. let's go to washington right now with markaid, and you agree as well, to the people that put together this document. they have threaded a needle that for the moment at least have harry reid, mitch mcconnell, john boehner and president obama all holding fire, all saying let's see what we can do. >> it flies in the face of a million things that have happened not just since the election, but over the last few years. it's an adult document. it's not perfect. it does a really smart job of spreading the pain of whatever burden is going to come with having to make hard choices. we talked before about president bush and the debt that he ran up. i think the bigger complaint or criticism you can make is he didn't confront these hard choices. he didn't deal with the entitlement programs. he didn't deal with sacrifice that's going to be necessary. so i think it's a fantastic opportunity for the president to come and lead. he's done so a little bit by not attacking the thing as you suggested. i think he's going to need to do more. there ar

marks because house republicans announced this week that they are going to vote to ban all ear marks for the next congress and the house republican leaders challenge the president to promise that he will veto any spending bill that includes emarks. is the president willing to take that pledge? >> the president spoke on this yesterday. we are pleased with the movement toward doing away with the ear marks. the president has been about ear mark reform since he got to the united states senate when the republicans were last in charge ear marks exploded to 16,000 in one year alone. democrats have cut that in half but we should go the final step here. so the president supports that. obviously there is some discussion within the republican ranks, senator mcconnell last week rejected this so you can talk about that with senator demint and see where they are. in terms of we will see what comes to us, chris. obviously this is very late in the game in terms of budgeting and keeping the functions of government operating so, you know, and one of the problems is that these things come embedded in bills that have to be signed and that is one of the reasons why the president has asked for a constitutional authority to line-item veto and i hope while the republicans are talking about reforming ear marks they will also give the president this authority so he can excise those things and larger bills are

tries to reclaim the ax as the cardinal face cal in the big game. >> hear there victoria's couch and his quarterback when we come back with sports wrap up [ music ] >> good evening, everyone. thanks for joining our saturday need edition of sports wrap. last year andrew luck last year threw a costly interception that allowed them to keep the ax and the bay area bragging rights. today luck and the cardinal turned the big game into a big blow-out. they kept it including last year when they won at stanford. things head up in berkeley even before the kickoff. they start chirping and he gets punched and patterson gets ejected before the game even starts. but that was the only mistake stanford made today. cal quarterback brock mansion never got on track. mansion lost a fumble and intercepted twice in the first half. richard sherman makes his pick for stanford. mansion got an earful from the coach. look at andrew luck for stanford number 12. well, he decides it is time to mowsy on down the field and the quarterback from cal number 11 bounces off luck like a flea. a 50-yard play for luck that sets up the first td of the game. luck accounts for 72 of stanford's 232 yards rushing today. sophomore running-back taylor ran for three short tds including this one to put the cardinals ahead 10-0. luck completes 16-20 passes for two tds. and the tightened makes it 24- 0. former card equal john elway is impressed. meanwhile brock mansion kept trying to force the issue. this time he throws off balance again. time michael thomas accepts the gift. too easy for stanford. cardinal scores points in all eight possessions led by andrew luck. baldwin's 19-yard td. it was 31-0 at half time. cal did score two tds to prevent a big record blow-out. but freshman wide receiver allan from the elusive running- back throws to score. stanford wins this thing 48-14. the most points cardinals have scored in a big game history. they own the ax for the second time in just nine years. and stanford earns it's most lopsided victory over cal in 80 years. bears must beat washington next year to become bowl eligible. while the 10-11 cardinals did everything right today. the coach said that pre-game barking wasn't their idea. >> it wasn't from our guys. you know, our guys were, you know, really played smart. they played discipline the entire game. they kept their mouths shut. we don't like that kind of football. i am not in favor of that. i think, you know, you play with, you know, your ability. you play with your heart. you play in the field. >> i tried to get a little extra motivation from the performance. it was a new year and didn't try to think about it too much. >> didn't make mistakes and guys made place and stepped up and it worked. >> he probably doesn't like me saying this because he is the greatest i have ever seen in college football. i mean, i feel sorry for the defense who goes against him. he is amazing. >> the defense didn't play to the level of the offense last year. kind of let them down. so this whole team was charged and ready. all counting on one another. so when 11 guys stick together that's football. >> so stanford takes back the ax on the same field where exactly 28 years ago today they lost a big game thanks to cal's fantastic finish and the play. the fan was not on the field. >>> oregon state beavers manhandled 20th rank southern california. the quarterback left the game with a sprained ankle but first found time to throw this interception to the beaver's quarterback who heads the other way for 65-yard td. beavers win to climb 5-5. unc falls to 7-4. lost three straight games there. >>> all four of the division one unbeatens were idle today. that's or begun, auburn, boise state and tcu. the highest ranked team in the field today was number 5lsu. tigers hosted mississippi quarterback and the bay area product led the rebels in the third quarter. over to summers who outruns the defenders 65 yards. ole misled 36-35. but they score 20 in the third quarter. but they don't get burned. 43-36. they are 10-1. >>> 6th ranked wisconsin played without their running-back clay. no problem because michigan couldn't stop anybody. badgers ran for 365 on the yard against the wolverines. james white runs this one back. badgers meet michigan 38-28. they are 10-1. the only team to beat them was michigan state. and the 11th ranked game off the buy week looking rather rusty while visiting perdue boil makers. and they punt inside the five yard line. perdue was leading by three with just five minutes left in the game at this point. msu takes advantage of that special teams effort. cousins takes it in. he fumbles but spartans recover so it is counted. michigan state beats the boilermakers 35-31. msu is tied with wisconsin and ohio state for first place. >>> and the home of the baseball chicago cubs. the wrigley field hosted its first college football game in 72 years today. the east end-zone was just a foot from the outfield wall so officials decided it is too dangerous. therefore each team ran its offense in the same direction for all four quarters. except one interception it complicated things like illinois a little razzle dazzle northwest brian peters intercepts to take it back 15 yards. the only td scored in the dangerous east zone. wildcats even get back there in the west to score the extra point. northwestern though they get the victory. big time play there illinois wins 48-27 over northwestern. >>> notre dame and army played each other 22 times in the old navy stadium. the last game 69. but today they played the first football ever in the new yankee stadium. army quarterback gets intercepted by the navy and we have ourselves a convoy. they beat the black knights 27- 3. >> and i've any knights met at came ridge. the 129th edition of what they call the game. the second half kickoff return he races 84 yards for the td. jail kept it close but harvard beat the bulldogs for the ninth time in the last ten years 2821. >> wet and wild between sacramento state and uc davis. sacramento state leads. then came the rain, the thunder and the lightning t causes a 30- minute delay. it came down to this. sacramento needed to score something. jeff fleming gets intercepted. perkins uc davis win to finish 6-5. their 39th winning season in their last 40 years. and a long winding road for san jose state. tonight they are getting hammered in hawaiian 41-7 in the fourth quarter. they will go down to 1-10 with two games left after tonight. >>> well, coming up, two brothers are headed

mark sayre is in sunnyvale now to tell us what could be on the horizon for those workers. mark, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. reports this morning are circulating in the trade press that yahoo could lay off 20% of its workforce. but yesterday, yahoo released a statement calling those reports inaccurate. now, citing anonymous sources, the techcrunch website said yahoo was preparing to lay off 2800 employees. yahoo's response to that report, quoting now, yahoo is always evaluating expenses to align with the company financial goals. however, a 20% reduction in yahoo's workforce across the board is misleading and inaccurate. but in a separate report, the "wall street journal's" all things digital blog reports the number of layoffs would be 650 workers. that would be centered on the company's product organization. it says those layoffs would take place next month. that is in december. now, under california law, any large company that's planning to lay off 500 workers or more must notify the state within 60 days of those layoffs and at this point, sydnie, there's been no such notification from yahoo to state regulators. >> all right, mark mark sayre in sunnyvale this morning. >>> 5:39 now. the obama administration is working internet privacy issues. the white house has created a special task force. the "wall street journal" reports the commerce department is preparing a report on stepped up policing of internet privacy. new laws are expected to follow, although republicans are likely to oppose any plans to expand the enforcement powers of the federal trade commission. >>> one more summit for president obama before he comes home from asia. the president flew to japan today for and a peck meeting . at the g20 meeting the president could not get the other leaders to call on countries to stop undervaluing their currencies. >> the issue is one that is an irritant not just to the united states but is an irritant to a lot of china's trading partners and those who are competing with china to sell goods around the world. >> the president also failed in trying to get a free trade agreement with south korea. >>> a miracle in the

mark strassmann in atlanta, mark, thank you so much. and turning overseas, a confrontation today between the two koreas. they fired artillery shells at each other after the north warned the south to stop military drills near their sea border. two south koreans were killed and 18 were wounded. the white house blames the north and says president obama is "outraged." late today, his national security team met to discuss how to respond. celia hatton has more on the clash between the koreas. >> reporter: residents on the south korean island of yeonpyeong ran for their lives as north and south korea exchanged artillery fire for an hour. dozens of shells rained down on the island and its fishing village near the disputed korean border. "it was like war, my house burned down" says this resident, one of 1,200 civilians evacuated from the now-empty island. it was the worst military confrontation between the koreas in decades. as soon as the shooting stopped a war of words began, with each country claiming the other fired the first shots. all this took place amid heightened tensions on the korean peninsula. north korea is in the process of passing power from the country's ailing leader kim jong il to his son, the inexperienced kim jong un. >> he's protecting his own regime, propping up his son for the future and trying to protect the regime of kim jong il, his father kim il sung and his son kim jong un for eternity. >> reporter: many believe that's why the north is being more provocative. in march, they torpedo a ship and killed 46 sailors. they unveiled their newest nuclear facility capable of enriching weapons-grade uranium. the sophistication of the facility was a surprise to visiting american scientists. >> i said oh, my god, they actually did what they said they were going to do. >> reporter: south korea's president, lee myung-bak, warned that the south won't tolerate attacks on civilians. as these confrontations escalate, so does the threat of a full-blown korean confrontation the world has tried to avoid. celia hatton, cbs news, beijing. >> couric: meanwhile, in afghanistan, after nine years of war, nato and afghan leaders felt the time was right to open a dialogue with the taliban. they even held secret meetings with an insurgent leader-- at least that's what they thought they did. here's chief white house correspondent chip reid with one incredible story. >> reporter: in recent months, u.s. and nato forces have provided by safe passage for taliban leaders from their hideouts in pakistan to kabul for preliminary talks with afghan leaders, including president hamid karzai. both sides hoped the talks might eventually lead to negotiations to end the war. but there's one major problem. sources say the top taliban official in the room-- mullah mohammed mansour was really an impostor. including one report, a lowly shopkeeper who received large sums of money from afghan officials to attend. president karzai today decided he never met with the man, calling the reports propaganda, but the top u.s. commander in afghanistan, who has encouraged talks with taliban leaders, said he wasn't surprised by reports of a fraud. >> there was skepticism about one of these all along and it may well be that that skepticism was well founded. >> reporter: theories of why the man posed as a taliban leader range from a simple get rich quick scheme to an elaborate deception by the taliban or even pakistan in retaliation for being cut out of the talks. >> the damage done is damage done to the credibility of the united states and the karzai government because they were in essence dealing with a con man. >> reporter: now, efforts to talk to the taliban are expected to continue, but this incident was a warning about how easy it is to get burned. katie? >> couric: chip reid at the white house, chip, thank you. in health news, an exciting development in the battle against aids. a new study finds truvada, a pill that treats h.i.v. infection, can also prevent the virus from spreading. researchers say giving truvada to high-risk men along with counseling and condom use reduced their risk of getting h.i.v. by an average of 44%. meanwhile, pope benedict says for the first time condoms are okay to protect against h.i.v. and other diseases. that historic statement is in a new book released today as the u.n. announced increased condom use has led to a 20% drop in new h.i.v. infections worldwide over the past decade. elaine quijano has more on the pope's new approach to aids. >> reporter: in kenya, where more than a million people are infected with h.i.v., residents cheered the pope's recent remarks that using condoms to prevent spreading h.i.v./aids could be a responsible choice. >> reporter: a top vatican official was careful to say the pope was tackling the issue of condoms as disease prevention, not birth control. in the book "light of the world" pope benedict says: >> what the pope says about condom use doesn't really represent a change in church teaching because the real ban on contraception is really for married couples. >> reporter: analysts say the church has never formally addressed the issue of contraception outside marriage, making the pope's comments especially important. >> what this does is it says, well, maybe if you have a different intention when using a condom, that's in a different moral category and we can maybe think differently about that. that's the new conversation that we will likely have. >> reporter: because up until this point, that wasn't even something that was publicly discussed as a possibility. >> not by the pope. >> reporter: given the aids crisis, critics have argued the church's disapproval of condom use was morally wrong. but now public health advocates worldwide are applauding the pope's comments, hoping a more open dialogue might save more lives. elaine quijano, cbs news, new york. >> couric: and coming up next, saving social security. is the answer raising the retirement age to almost 70?
