retiring after 25 years as the ceo of duke energy, one of america's biggest energy providers and dennis o'briencan recovery is the energy story. tell us from your perspective how big is that story? of shale, of natural gas, of oil, all of these things. i think everyone was expecting a technological revolution in energy and they all expected it to be wind and solar and there was a technological revolution in energy but in extraction of hydrocarbons, correct? >> correct. shell gas is probably the most transformative innovation that occurred in this country in over a decade. as lloyd said, it's been a ta tailwind to the economy but in terms of achieving environmental goals, we're in 1993, 1992 level of co2 emissions in this country but we have significantly more people and a much larger economy. so i think that it's been transformative both in driving our economy but transforming in meeting our environmental objectives as far as climate change is concerned. >> that was jim rogers, chairman of duke energy. i asked my panelists about income inequality. a hot topic not only in america but around the

. >> let's bring in robert o'brien, a former delegate to the united nations general assembly, and was mitt romney's senior policy advisor, welcome. let me start with - how should the u.s. proceed? what should the strategy be? >> the u.s. has to remain firm in the negotiations. we have to keep the sanctions in place until there's transparency on behalf of the iranians. it's amusing coming out of the talks in geneva, there's a breathless reporting across the internet that the iranians spoke english, and they used a powerpoint presentation as if this was a breakthrough. of course they speak english, they are building a nuclear bomb, of course they know how to use power point. so i think that folks get excited about these supposed diplomatic gustures by the rainians, but we have not seen anything of assistance yet. >> what the best the iranians can hope for? >> they are in a strong position. they have the u.s. desperate for a deal. president obama chased hassan rouhani around the u.n. seeking a telephone call or meeting. they saw the red line disappear in syria with the chemical weapons,

. >> commissioner o'brien. >> i'd agree. thank you for your presentation. i have a couple thins to say. one, i am a victim of getting a green zone for the purposes of giving temporary parking for three different businesses operating out of that building. within a week a relatively close neighbor saw a golden opportunity and used it to park her car there between street cleanings which occurred once a week and i didn't appreciate the outcome that happened after all the trouble we went to get the green zone. she graciously come to the realization that that's not right and she doesn't do it anymore. i would definitely support the idea that there's a time limit for people parking on the green zone, handicap or not. two, just wondered if, for the purposes of pr, probably more than anything else, have you ever considered having a different colored placard that identifies somebody who may have a handicap that's a hidden handicap so that people -- we see someone who apparently looks like they could compete in the olympic 100 sprint dash and claiming they got a handy
