it's a better model, if senator daschle remembers we did medicare advantage in 2003 and '04 and we did make a huge effort to pick off ten democrats in the senate. i think there were nine. and a handful in the house to take the edge off it. it's never good to do healthcare policy. creating the aca or repealing it by a party line vote. we're in a much tougher world than we used to be. i wish it was friendlier. the republican point of view, they look at aca is too big. ft y i would have been comfortable with doing 50% of it. just on the medicaid side. i think medicaid gets too little attention. when i got to o&b in 1989 we had 20 million people in the medicaid program and it cost $50 billion a year. before the aca, we had 55 million people in the medicaid program in 2010. i think it cost $400 billion a year. today we have 77 million people in the medicaid program. and it's about $600 billion a year. okay. so what's the real difference in the next ten years republicans want to do if you look at the ryan bill. if you look at what the ryan bill does you have millions of people. but the growt

rate for thement 2018 medicare advantage are coming out and it looks like 1.3%.ill be 1.58% versus these stocks are getting a little bit of a lift off of that. overall, we are looking at a risk off day. we look at the vix, we have it up 8%. its biggest jump since march 21. up three days in a row. gold is higher. look at this, the 10-year you basisdown five points. even bonds are rallying and the dollar is declining against the rent. let's hop into the bloomberg and take a look at the vix over the last two years. it is sharply higher at the beginning of 2016. it also spikes higher on brexit fears. right now, we have this calm, this complacency. we could see it's like higher on this policy from president trump. whatever it is, it could prove to be a pullback for stocks in the coming weeks and months. thanks. some breaking news, purebreds is looking at options, including a sale, after receiving a takeover interest. the shares have been holding. they were up 7.6% in the session company has a market value of $6 billion and we have seen some deals in the casual space already. let's go to hedge

we had 3% of people in the medicare advantage program. private health insurance has turned out to be pretty good. medicaid went from 10% in 2000 two over 80% led by california and other really democratic states. i think it will to private health care is definitely happening. the reason i like it is because i don't like price-fixing. it has never worked in the history of mankind. at the time it seemed like a great idea. doctor in the hospital the same thing hasn't turned out to be the problem. as long as they are well-regulated, you can take tose to the population or go a blue cross plan or whatever and say here is $15,000, call me next year. think the behavior and the outcomes are much better by having a little bit of markets come to bear. i think we made great movement. these things are happening relatively slowly. we are moving in the right direction. if kaiser was to build a couple hundred buildings -- one of the things is the lack of transparency is a real impediment. health care is the only sector of the economy -- we think you live

the same way president bush fixed medicare advantage back in 2000, there are many things we can do tot premium increases and many things we can do with the insurance market and people exiting the insurance market. the last plan the republicans put forward, 80% of the public opposed, what have thrown 24 my people off health insurance, increased premiums and increase the national debt by $350 billion. if republicans want to fix the plan, obamacare right now which according to polls in contrast to the republican plan is north of 50% support, there is a recent poll that has obamacare up at 54% right now, so if they want to fix it, democrats should come to the table, but if they want to repeal it with a plan like they put forward last time that had no public support, not even republican support inside congress, i think that is a nonstarter in should be. >> jon: the president has said in the past that you should just let obamacare failed of its own weight because some of these exchanges are going down the tubes and a lot of states only have one opportunity to buy health insurance now. if th

it is not covered like medicare advantage then of course, you are not going to get those kinds of coverage. there is a policy of coordinated care and care team that's for the patients. and increasingly these days we are seeing and hear about changes of -- we want to make sure that's part of those things because you want to be sure there is care for hospice and others. finally, the fifth big idea is there are communities that's doing right. we look at cultural health and how communities getting together to solve our problems. we need to support the initiative and find ways to get resources and using them as models where other people can follow. those are the five big ideas. now, i want to ask if we did before if we leave all those thing, how can we make things happen? >> some policy issues and some have to go all the way in congress because i thought social services and medicare services and they come from different branches of agencies. and making sure it is all integra integrated. i will say one last thing. >> sure, go ahead. we did a recent analysis looking at the amount of money we spen
