in the era of the mythic beltway of ronald reagan and tip o'neal, the definite reduction deal was born, passed, and signed into law. gerald bernstein points out yes, ronald reagan approved of a deal that was more than 80% new revenue, more than 80% more taxes, a deficit-reduction bill passed in 1990 by the first president bush. then, in 1993, bill clinton and the democratic-led congress cut the deficit. that was about 60% taxes, and now to our most current balanced budget deal. earlier this summer when the crisis of the looming debt ceiling was only just beginning to roll off the assembly line of republican shenanigans, the white house was pushing a deal that involved a 3 to 1 compromise, $3 of spending cuts to every $1 of tax increases. in other words, if the republicans would go ahead and vote not to blow up the economy, the white house would give them a deal that was only 25% tax increases, lowest one so far on the chart. you can witness the blue shrinking. republicans themselves had advocated earlier this year a reduction plan that was 15% revenue, so where does that lead us? now w

i struggled as a conservative democrat and voted against tip o'neal in the first congress. i loved ronald reagan. he was crewsfied by the press. but he turned out to be a pretty darn good president. a man of honor. but the system has got an lot worse since then. i saw early, when i got to congress that packs were deliberately secretive. and the reason they form the facts was so the check would be bigger. that's why they formed them, so i decided not to accept that. and it's grown, my feeling, as i've been in private enterprise, as i depended on the honor and work of my customers that checks that get in between that honor are dishonorible. our system is institutionly corrupt. i don't know of another nation sells ambassadorship like we do. not another nation that i know of. yes, ma'am? >> you talked about de regulation of small businesses. you mentioned oil. can you talk about that? >> yes. we're talking small companies. we're not talking about the majors. they have got lawyers and lobbyists. they can take care of themselves. i'm really focused on where the jobs come from. an
