i'm neil cavuto. and i hope by now you're done with your taxes even though if you think about it, we're never done with our taxes. rates going up. fees going up. fines going up. if you have it, uncle sam wants it. an affordable care act that suddenly doesn't look so affordable. and free college for which you will likely get the bill. this tax day, why not a good taxpayers revolt. how about accountability from this government that shows no mercy. how about this next hour we explore how we can get our country back by finally demanding our politicians to show some backbone. and how about we start with the guy who made it all possible under ronald reagan gosh, more than three decades ago. art laffer with me now. art, hard to believe it's been that long and then some. >> it really is. neil: since the reagan revolution. everyone thought it was crazy to cut tax rates and expect to be an economic boom. you didn't. ronald reagan didn't. but that was then. a lot of folks say that can never happen now. what do y

neil: good news!f you are one of those worried about an interest rate hike, it is not happening this year. bad news if you're hillary clinton, and it happens next year. welcome, everybody, i'm neil cavuto. and if the guy they called the mooch is right, mucho headaches for hillary clinton in 2016. wall street dynamo anthony scaramucci predicts that is the stick of dynamite the federal reserve is going to hand her early next year. the first of what he says could be several rate hikes that could plague hillary all year. to the man set to resurrect wall street week on tv this weekend, and he wasn't even around when the actual show was on. he's so young. a fast-moving development that could just leave the possible democratic nominee very, very weakened. anthony spell it out first why you think it's next year that would not be good timing for her. >> well it's interesting, jeff from double line is our first guest on sunday to promote with an answer. neil: i love it. >> well the question is going to be are t

neil: no doubt. you covered these numbers too, there seems to be a huge economy as well as distraction here. which is the real deal? given the -- retail sales will be bubbling and it's not happening. >> it's not happening yet. a big push that you're seeing is m&a. big companies are buying other companies. and what happens, the first thing that happens is job growth declines. they cut a lot of jobs. neil: and going nowhere, right? >> the full compensation has been cut by half since 1948. the other thing too. neil: or 1947. >> watch how the bls count full-time jobs. >> the bureau of labor and statistics. >> if you are working a lot of part-time jobs, and they add up to 35 hours, that counts as one full-time job. never mind the people are struggling. >> and wage growth is only clocking in at about 2% per year, before the crisis, we were looking at 3.5% per year. neil: inflation is very low, too. >> it has been. neil: which is leading which? >> a good question that's another conundrum that the consumer n

neil: gina? >> well, you know i think that americans have to make a decision do they want a candidate who will be to the republican side who will have taken money from pro free market people who believe america should prosper or do they want a candidate like hillary, who has taken money from foreign governments who want to opress women and kill gays. neil: i mean, you could go ahead simplify who is giving them money, what motivates them. each side believes that money is coming from those causes to which it is near and dear. all i'm saying, when it is made light of, i begin to wonder whether we play this and pain this fairly, all republican money is evil, and is thetious >> is suspect. >> it is not that, democratic policies don't support the rich. it is not about -- >> they protect their interest too. >> what about this gad illionaire -- gaza ill an your for protecting protecting protecting climate change. >> they articulated in mind the world they want to see. neil: a multibillionaire doing the s

>> yeah, neil how you doing? neil: doing fine. why does it keep happening, what do you recommend when you see and hear what's going on? people have the right to legitimately protest and more looting and arresting and attacking people and everyone gets angry it becomes a national incident. how do you calm things down? >> i mean at this point, like i told you neil like we said in ferguson it's what's being taught to our youth. as you could see yesterday in ferguson it was the youth. you keep pumping that their victims and blacks at the bottom to the youth and they're reacting. god is not mocked. you shall also reap. you understand? these leaders keep telling the youth you're at the bottom and the justice system ain't showing those men no love. let's go back, it starts at home. neil. this stuff starts at home. you keep talking about the justice system like it's a cool place to be! and we keep making this a racial issue, and it's not! this is a sin problem. your jackedup kids keep moving under a wicked method! this is coming from what

neil: good to see you, thank you, sir? >> thank you neil. neil: focus on what hillary clinton seems to be running from. >> i want to be sure that we get small businesses starting and growing in america again. we have stalled out. neil: say what? charlie gasparino says get ready for hillary to run from the obama economy. just as you predicted and outline the biggest worry is the suddenly shaky recovery. but this is the first time for her to be this point-blank about it. >> this direct. i think we're going to see more of that. your first guest talked about the tightrope jittering and that is essentially what she has to do. she has to talk liberal and talk sometimes conservative then kiss up to wall street and beat up on the fat cats. it is kind of an odd campaign, and you know, in the end, when you start thinking about it you know we're all conditions to think that she'll get through it, the clintons always get through it. neil: you will not get through it. will not be a party nominee. >> it's going to be a very, very difficult road. not going

neil: what do you make of that? larry? >> you talking to me, neil? neil: i am told maybe a time he expecter -- percolate but now he does not. >> i don't know the outcome of the meeting. he could be a underdogs candidate, many feel his time passed in 2012, i would not under estimate crist or walker. -- christie or walker. they have a soft spot for scott walker. i don't think they are ready to endorse any individual candidate. they will put money in general not primary as they should. neil: thank you. from the avengers to back stabbers or front stabbers. give john mccain some credit as least he is letting paul have it in the open. saying paul was clueless on these issues, and president obama with warren said he admired her but she is wrong on trade, she fired back later on, saying your whole trade thing is wrong. kudos for getting it sut on open. -- it out in the open, but now they say time for each party to save the real nastiness for i guess inside the tent? >> i think for g.o.p., they have been infighting for a long time, on a varieties of issues, o

neil: very well put. >> thank you. neil: i wonder. they talk about simplifying tax code, for something like a consumption tax. but, democrats want it in addition to our income tax. and republicans in favor of just value added type tax. i look at europe, and i say it worked like such a charm for them. but it is never ether or. >> that is why it is so beneficial, so much to be put into eliminates tax. you get rid of infrastructure, lawyers, and account tant that specialize, the last bit is most beneficial to society you should never do an additional tax. even if you reduce another one. that gives you the infrastructure you have to have. in ohio, i think 780 individual income taxes that is crazy. these are individual tax for school districts and that stuff have you going on, you need to have one low rate broad base flat tax and be on with it jerry brown replaced all federal taxes, excise irk incorp, corporate, all of them two flat rates, the rate was 12% that was then but we may come back again you never know, everyone wants to do it, on

neil:? -- they created a monster if -- >> if you done bail it all it would have been armageddon, this is what fed did, i think volcker is right somewhat, federal reserve, government over last 20 years has bailed out the banks several times on the way. >> yeah. >> creates moral hazard, and allowed glass-steagall. >> so why should they -- >> we -- okay, all right. neil: okay you see why he is the better boomer. >> sad i love it. >> thank you so much. >> i look younger than him. i am not. neil: each is over 80. >> and meanwhile hillary clinton a banker friend is doing everything she can to assure her party's left but not in banker's pocket? de blasio is reportedly thinking of jumping who the race as a antibank guy. with his financial baggage glech en yougretchen you said this would hurt hillary clinton. >> it will. it far left does not believe it is being represented. that comes with inequal treeity and occupy wall street they want hillary to be pulled to the left on these issues. neil: the iss

neil: welcome, everybody. i am neil cavuto. in building into this weekend or overdrive that the attack evian -- tech had the index because since the market meltdown the average has more than doubled. steve forbes what you think of this? >> when you hear that talk be careful especially we have to keep up with the dow. the nasdaq went ahead of it so they had a long way to go down and a long way to come back so that idea it needs to do double our fear of a new companies with high multiples. this is not the s&p five entreated is a separate universe. >> i look at one predictor looking at amazon. i don't know any other stock in history that could post a 15% gain the day after it reports a loss. it is extraordinary. now rated as a brave new world and people are more rational what these stocks to that of the late 90's but it does seem like the vibrations are getting inflated. neil: the nasdaq was the last to join the parade. >> interestingly enough the nasdaq is not trading ahead of i e earnings multiple but we predict it will double b

neil: fair enough. you heard of collateral damage, when it comes to the government, it's collateral benefits that worry me that this gets to be sort of a gimme that you got a lot of gimmies. >> this is not a gimme to me, this is truly people, who wants food stamps if you don't have to have them. >> but the eligibility has come down. >> listen people are living in poverty. >> who are all the people? millions of people are not living in poverty. >> below poverty rate. neil: one of the guys who got coverage from the affordable care act, aren't they savvy enough pay whatever it is they pay with the $5,000 deductible without the government subsidies. my immediate question is and you qualified for food stamps? >> there is specific criteria which you qualify for food stamps. neil: apparently a lot. >> i'm not trying to be cute about. this try living on what people qualify. neil: i need to qualify enough to get the coverage that would carry the high deductible and the high annual premium, so that was something

neil: what? >> 2.4% is corporate tax revenue that federal government pulls in vis-a-vis gdp for the last 40 years, the same raise the it is not tax evasion, it is because of bad government policies and government spending that is the fastball. that is in play. i think on american taxpayer for so long, we're running a 17 trillion dollar government what about 200 billion in waste there there. and vacant federal buildings. neil: you praise ireland again you have yet to say anything nice about italy. >> that is right. neil: all right. >> the next show. neil: all right now apple is holding cash out of country republicans trying to spend more cash in the country the way they are doing it i find most obnoxious, wait until you hear what they are up to or not up to. the real question that needs to be asked is "what is it that we can do that is impactful?" what the cloud enables is computing to empower cancer researchers. it used to take two weeks to sequence and analyze a genome; with the microsoft cloud

i put a call in to neil. neil was unavailable. and now i had the pentagon papers in my apartment and they were worried the fbi was going to -- they mentioned that i should expect an fbi raid any minute. so i called my friend howard zinn and said, howard can you store something for me tonight? we were going to see buch cassidy and the sundance kid that evening with roz and howard. so we arranged -- we went over to his apartment. i took -- his house. i took the pentagon papers with me and gave them to him to store and then we went to see "butch cassidy and the sundance kid" and that night i went into the harvard square station kiosk and got the first editions of the pentagon papers that were coming out. >> did you think you were going to go to jail? >> well, yeah. i had always assumed that i would go to jail if they chose to prosecute. i knew there was a slight chance -- i could figure there was a slight chance they might not choose to prosecute due to political reasons and in fact ehrlichman advised not to prosecute. good advice. i

neil degrasse tyson: we had him on the radio show.issed are cut off for having them on television. you can find it online. we actually made news during that interview because we were yukking it up about aliens and possibly the discovery of intelligent aliens and he mused of aliens are sufficiently intelligent and they come upon us, they've might just want to make us their pet. because here we are thinking we are intelligent and we will conquer -- no. that is human hubris kicking in preventing you from thinking how intelligent some entity might actually be. elon musk is an ideal kind of guest for "startalk." emily: what about the topics. what topics are you most excited about right now? neil degrasse tyson: i'm excited about all kinds of topics. but "startalk" is not topic driven. it is not today we are going to talk about moon landings. science is driving the show. the guest is driving the show. we orbit science talk around that person's life and profession. so, for example, one of the people i interviewed is been stone -- biz stone,

neil, i'd love to start with you. i think a lot of people here today know the basics about common core others may not. it might be good to start with what is common core and what are the misperceptions buts we might have about it. >> there are a lot of misconceptions about common core. you can say with most people agreeing is that at a minimum it's a set of standards developed by the national governor's association and the council of two state school officers. that's where any agreement ends. the reality is it goes beyond being a guideline as it's often presented. but it's specifically about structuring the curriculum in math and english and with the connection to science and social studies and it's connected to federally funded test ss on which schools and districts are held accountable. so your district or school can be punish bid how you do on those tests and, of course, what is tested is what's taught. that is why this is about curriculum. the other misconception is they say well, states voluntarily adopted the co

welcome everybody, i'm neil cavuto. first off, my thanks to colleagues and friends for so ably filling in when i was out. now back to that afraid that is coming back to haunt the economy stupid. when james carville coined it bill clinton ran with and it plastered his opinion anyone, george bush, sr., for not doing enough about it. it got bill clinton elected. some 23 years later, charlie says it could prevent his wife from doing the same. why? things are backfiring. >> the ironis if you look at the gdp numbers back then -- >> at the time they were picking up. >> and clinton walked right into it. the problem she might have. economic cycles run in seven-year spurts. if go under the headline number look at the larger unemployment people dropped out of the work force, it's much worse, double that. a lot of other factors look like the economy might be slowing. so think about this. she knows this because she has told this to wall street, the economy could be the biggest issue. it's the sleeping giant. it's under the surface.
