mr. president? >> well, the first movie i ever saw more than once was "high noon" and i was still living in hope arkansas, i was 6 years old and you could go to the movie for a dime. and i would get 20 cents and i think you could get a coke and a candy bar. the only other movie that i can watch over and over and over again and not get tired of is "casablanca". >> i have the stanley kramer

mr. chairman. i suggested in my opening that the united states was doing relatively well in this raie ra. mr. scissors, you are ahead. i guess the question to you would be whether or not it's -- it is constructive to even talk about this being a race for the clean energy title. is it fair? is it constructive to say that we are in a race? and then if it is so, if it is appropriate to refer to this as some kind of a competition, which everyone has used that word and we all recognize that words matter here. if this is a competition, what's the metric that we use? how do we judge who is winning and who is losing? is it a question of how much money has been deployed? is it the generating capacity that is then put in place? is it a calculation of a reduction in emissions? how do we even measure this to know what is up, who is down? and i throw this out to all of you. because i think it is an important part to this discussion is it all about how much money is spent or is it the outcome at the end? mr. wolff? >> well, if it's a race to deploy new technologies, it's a useful thing to do. you ought to

mr. trotter? >> well, as i indicated in my written testimony, i'm not in a position to talk about any particular ipo or company. but i will say that in the area of analyst research, by far and away, all of the protections that were developed in the last decade remain in place. and are unchanged as a result of the jobs act. there were some changes, and many of those changes relating to that area still need to be interpretation and other interpretation by the regulator in that area. >> mr. moscovitz, your comments? >> with respect to the global analysts' research settlement, yes, that's my understanding, as well. one concern with the changes that were made in the jobs act is that if you allow analysts to meet with prospective clients, that there's a possibility you can have analysts meeting clients -- meeting companies that want to come public, and that way the underwriters can say here's our analyst, he's got a nice suit, he'll write nice things about your company and we'll give you a strong buy recommenda

mr. donohue? >> well, if you read what seems to be the treaties and environmental interest, we have met all of them. all of them. period. and if we were a party to the treaty and inordinate or particularly inappropriate climate demands were made on us, we would have the ability to veto it, veto it. it takes one veto. >> may i ask you -- yes, mr. timmons? >> you'll tell me how you think that is wrong, and i'll be happy to discuss it with you. >> i think that's a very important point that mr. donohue has just made. we would have the only permanent seat on the sea bed authority, and we would have the right to object to any provisions that are put forward. that said, there is nothing in the treaty that i've read that indicates that we would have to join kyoto or any other -- any other treaty of that type. and that's coming from an organization that does not support kyoto and has serious reservations about a cap and trade regime. >> some critics have additionally argued that if the u.s. joins the convention, w

mr. braley? >> well, mr. gebhart, it seems like we have a collective amnesia in this room about the abuse of practices that have

mr. keith? >> well, the sentence -- what i think it means is that she didn't ask and she didn't know why ms. lopez kept saying in 2011. i mean, i think that's the meaning of the sentence. it could have been conveyed in fewer words but she's honestly reporting, i didn't ask about this but she kept saying in 2011. i think as cryptic as this is, the meaning is clear that she didn't know why she kept saying 2011, it wasn't clear. >> i'd be inclined to strike the sentence that begins "i" online 21. i think that's speculation. any objection? any decenting view from the commission? mr. kopp anything else on paragraph 16? >> yes. the next sentence now sounds like another level of heresay that is what this person venezuela said to ms. lopez and again it's not rem vant. and then the very next sentence beginning online 23 i don't believe there's any foundation that looks like speculation and it's not relevant. this is offered to show ms. lopez's state of mind and, you know, perhaps indicate why -- what spurred her

we narrowed it to what was considered for contempt and i will make one pledge to you, mr. wells, regardless of your amendment, regardless of the contempt vote, i am not done looking at justice and i'm sure that mr. grassley is not done looking at justice and alcohol, tobacco and fire for the serious reorganization that will be necessary to prevent this and other misconduct from occurring in the future. so you have my pledge regardless of what happens here today that we're not done with trying to get it right at atf. >> thank you. >> i yield back, mr. chairman. >> the gentleman of utah is recognized for five minutes. >> i thank you, mr. chairman. >> i rise an opposition. i have the greatest respect for the gentleman of vermont. i know he stands on principle and he's passionate about this country and wants truth and justice in all ways. i have the greatest respect for him, but i do stand in opposition to this amendment. this has been going on for a long time, and i would also site the actual contempt items. we looked at the subpoena that was issued back in october. i would point t

mr. tarullo as well. >> mr. senator, one of the provisions that you referred to is that as the enhanced provincial standards it will precipitate a horizontal review, and meaning that the larger supervision institution committee will compare them and it is that process that will actually give the individual supervisory teams on the ground more guidance and more insight as to what they should expect. >> right. i suppose some difference and some bank s ths that are over $ billion that are plain vanilla banks and others that are doing all of the fancy, sometimes unfathomable things. >> that is correct. >> yeah, and you didn't correct the word unfathomable. mr. curry, are you reviewing the banks as well? >> it is a critical component of the assessment of the corporate governance. >> so you are. and this is for you, mr. curry, jpmorgan's deriptive trades were made by a group that is part of the u.s. bank, but apparently all booked in london. do you as the u.s. regulator have full access to the information that you nee

mr. braley? >> well, mr. gebhart, it seems like we have a collective amnesia in this room about the abuse of practices that have been well-documented by the general accounting organization and others and so let me just start and see if i can refresh everyone's memory. this is an april 26, 2012, article called "accountability in military education by holly petraeus." i think we know who she's married to. she refers to interviews that her bureau, the consumer -- she describes an active duty military spouse at fort campbell, kentucky who filled out an interest forms and was called 10 to 15 times a day until she enrolled. that sounds like an abusive practice to me. another article she wrote for "the new york times" on september 21, 2011, titled "for-profit colleges -- vulnerable gi's" she noted the financial reality of what we're talking about between 2006 and 2010 the money received in military education benefits by just 20 for profit companies soared to an estimated $521 million from $66 million. and we all know

>> well, mr. speaker, it is totally unacceptable when putting rationing on financial considerations and the n.h.s. medical director has written to tell them the only criteria of decisions must be clinical and not financial. if evidence is found they're ignoring that the secretary of state can intervene. the department of health will look into any cases where they're using financial conditions. allegations have been made before, including under the last government, but the department of health are very clear about that and that should be welcomed across the house. >> but there is evidence, and he still is not acting, and it's not just cataract operations. there are 125 different treatments being rationed on the grounds of cost, including hips and knee replacements. what does he say to an elderly patient who needs a hip replacement? wait in pain or try to pay and go private? what does he say? >> well, i say three things. i say first of all what i just said before in answering the question about rati

mr. ambassador? follow-up on that? >> well, the -- the general issue that i think you've raised about the question of protection of property, for example, is one that is a very, very serious one. it's one that we at the state department work at very hard. it's one the administration works at very hard through the office of victoria espinal in the white house. these are issues that obviously are complex in terms of figuring out appropriate enforcement modes and so forth, but there's certainly no doubt about the importance of protection in the internet. is something that's very important. >> thank you. and mr. commissioner, talked about very much today, you brought up in your testimony about, that there's some form of government officials that have intimated to you about maybe having international universal service fund -- whereby foreign usually stayed on telecom companies would an international mandate to chart certain web destinations and on basis to build out broadband. you know, with the -- so many companies here in the uni

mr. grant. >> well, just as lew said, we humans are not very good with money and especially not very good with paper money. for 41 years and counting, the dollar has been a piece of paper of no intrinsic value and over these 41 years our banks have become ever wobblier on the authority of ben espernot, phd, a dozen major financial institutions were at death's door in 2008. in that our great recession, the u.s. economy shrank by a few percentage points only, yet no major bank failed in the ugly depression of 1920/21, and no major bank failed in the still uglier depression of 1929/33. between 1929 and 1933, the economy was virtually sawed in half. imagine what records thwreckaged do today in our subsidized and cart alliesed financial system. today's bankers, i suppose, are no less capable than their forbearers. what accounts, then, for the accident proneness for the 21st century financial system? in my opinion, what accounts for it is the incentives we have put in place in paper money, in the socialization of financial risk, and in the doctrine of too big to fail, we have hit the trifecta o

mr. wolf well, but in the region direction with him i have had, i was impressed and would it be more than willing to support him in a different capacity. supervisor campos: on the issue that came up with compliance of the charter, i know that is an important issue. certainly, it is an important issue to me. during the committee meeting i strongly believe it was critical for all government agencies to follow the charter. i also know, having spoken to him following the hearing, he gets the message and the concerns that were raised. i am confident that if he is reappointed, he will make sure that compliance with the charter is something that happens. i do think that the diverse perspectives represented by this group are something that is a good thing. but, i think diverse perspectives also means having someone who comes with the background that mr. bruce will has. there is no question that he could also serve another commissions. but he has chosen to focus his energy on this. i think he has demonstrated the ability to do that. i hope that we appoint him. supervisor chiu: supervisor wiener? s

they take their lead as well. >> thank you mr. speaker. patience satisfaction survey results have shown great introduction to patient satisfaction in the history. >> if you look at the king's fund who carried out this survey, there is no evidence of a real decline, of service, quality and performance. frankly i would put more weight on a survey that people actually using the nhs. the users, 92% of inpatients, 95% of outpatients. i don't think that's surprising since the election, there were 4000 more doctors. the number of people waiting over 18 week and waiting more than 18 weeks is also the lowest since records began. an average waiting time are down as well. the health services is performing extremely well. we should praise all of those who delivered that performance. >> thank you mr. speaker. the prime minster will be aware of the constituency of the current shortage of primary schools across our country. this is acute right now. what the government is doing to help counter this bold year and whether he's comfortable to have a performa

>> well, thank you, mr. chairman. i want to thank the chairman for once again holding a critical hearing on tax reform. we've had a large number of these hearings and they've been very helpful, especially as we go into this next year and the remaining part of this year. it is essential that we continue these discussions in pursuit of reforming a tax code, which is complicated, unfair, and difficult to administer. we cannot afford as a nation a tax code that prevents our full potential for economic growth. looking at the witnesses, it is clear that we have a good representation of different viewpoints about the various energy sources addressed throughout the tax code itself. my hope is that this hearing will contribute to our goal of comprehensive tax reform in the near future. it is important to conduct our examination today with president reagan's three criteria for tax reform as our guideposts. we will be looking at the fairness of the system, we will be looking at the efficiency of the system with a particular emph

mr. hamm well, but if you two are half as good as i'm hearing from my colleagues, this is a great panel, and we're delete that had you're here today. i want to follow up a little bit on what senator coburn was saying earlier. i think there's reason to be optimistic about the future of our country, a number of reasons, but one of those is, and he alluded -- we have been for some time the saudi arabia of coal. we are now apparently the saurd sawed of natural gas. i understand that we have become a net exporter of oil, and while we're not the top producer of oil in the world, i think we might be number three or so, but we apparently have more drills going today. wells producing today than i think maybe the rest of the world combined which is pretty amazing. i chair a subcommittee that deals with nuclear safety, and we have four brand new nuclear power plants being built in this country for the first time in 25 years, and i'm encouraged with the technology and the safety of the technology that it provides. cafe, we've implemented -- adopted cafe legislation, fuel efficiency for fuels in 2007

mr. curry, are you reviewing other banks as well? >> that's a critical component of our assessment of corporate governance and the overall risk management policy. >> so you are? >> yes. >> okay. second question -- now, this is for you, mr. curry. jpmorgan the derivative trades made by a group part of the u.s. bank but apparently all booked in london. do you as the u.s. regulator have full access to the information you need trading act tivgty conducted in london if carried out by u.s. bank and what more needs to be done to improve coordination with international regulators to prevent these kind of cross-border losses? >> the london operations at jpmorgan are conducted through a branch of the united states national banks. so in terms of jurisdiction, we have clear jurisdiction over the activities of that branch. in the case of jpmorgan chase, those activities are managed on a global basis through the new york office where we have the majority of our core staffing at the occ. >> okay. good. all right. third question. it's about early war
