i'd like to start by piggy-backing on david's comment about the 222 a day because my son does not count among the 22 a day because he went to iraq as a contractor. he was in love with the military all his life. he started as ad toddler with an obsession with the weapons of war and never outgrew it. he had, to my mind, all the time he was growing up, a naive reverence called the warrior spirit, and he did talk about valor and honor and glory and he spent three years in rotc and eight in the reserve, and in the rereceiver, he volunteered for everything he could. he was sent to bosnia and the congo and angola and he learned how to run a demining operation. he was doing that as a soldier out of the embassy, and the army decided to privatize that job. at that point, that seemed # to me an excellent thing. he left the reserve and waited six months for clearance and went back to do the same job as a contractor. then, of course, the contracting company that he worked for was by another, and the merger company as well as in publishing. but, and had a stepson, young cord, we want for another demi

little secret that the other side won't want to talk about is the fact that they turned medicare into a piggy bank for obamacare. they rated -- raided $716 billion from medicare to pay for obamacare. we say that those savings from medicare need to stay with medicare to make it more solvent, and if some of those savings from medicare are doing damage to the medicare provider network, like reducing access to things like medicare advantage, then we have a mechanism in it here to make sure we can fix that. just like we did for the s.g.r., otherwise known as the doc fix. we think we need to save and shrink this program, not only so it is there intact, for those in near retirement, for for future generations who are facing a bankrupt program if we don't do something to reform it. second, we don't slash the safety net. if anything, we strengthen the safety net. this administration has made all sorts of promises that it has no way of keeping, or it's made all sorts of promises and it's not telling us in any way how they're going to keep these promises. it's promised major expansions in programs like

i am intrigued by the deserts that seemed to be to tie into the piggy bank that reminds you that it'sa little too late for this year april 15 is almost here but it's not too late to start saving for next year. more interesting are the 10-dollar cookies. they are designed to be a currency to rival the big claims -- bit coins. there will cease to be currency if you eat them. [laughter] now that we've turned the calendar to april i know there are usually a couple other things that people's minds the first is spring which took a little while to get here after the snow and the second is taxes plus some of you maybe want to the final four this weekend. as the former chairman of the board of trustees we had a moment of silence earlier in the turban and but i would draw your attention that the loss was part of a long-term strategy to increase the endowment in the hopes of a substantial contribution from an unnamed major investor in the united states and recognition of the billion dollars we save him. moving on expecting to hear about the state of affairs at the internal revenue service you've

terms of the return on investment, and the return on investment of these pay plans is worse than a piggyank. >> that's true, but i think one of the other things we need to consider, nell, is that the law is really not on our side. if you look at -- >> that's why -- >> look at the decisions. >> that's the point. >> as it relates to this, they are unwilling and reticent to attack the business judgment rule. >> and that's why it has to be the shareholders who have a binding vote on this. that's not regulation. that's called a free market. let the shareholders who have a much lower number of conflicts of interest be the ones to decide whether somebody is getting paid too much. >> that's where we'll leave it. thank you both for the conversation. we appreciate it, and i'm sure this will be one we'll be back to. shall we take a look at the newsroom. dow up 24 at 16,560. 16,576 would be a closing high. >> yeah. we've been trading above that level earlier and not quite there as we head closer to the closing bell. got former fed chairman alan greenspan speaking of which coming up to help us celebr

republicans have been attacking our federal employees for years, treating them as if they were the piggy bank for deficit reduction. federal workers have already sacrificed $140 billion toward reducing this year's deficit through a three-year pay freeze and retirement contribution increases. now, house republicans want to squeeze another $125 billion out of these middle-class workers. how would they do this? the ryan budget would increase federal employee pension contributions to 6.53%, an increase of more than 5.5 percentage points for many current federal workers but it would not increase any benefits provided to these same workers. of course, federal employees make through their pension funds are not new. this year's budget also includes a provision prohibiting new federal employees from enrolling in the retirement system that has served federal employees since the 1920's. let me make this clear. under the ryan budget, one leg of the so-called three-legged stool on which federal employees have relied for security in their retirement would be ripped out from under them. new federal emp

the other side will not want to talk about the fact that they turned medicare into a piggy bank for obamacare rated $716 billion from medicare to pay for obamacare. we say that those savings from medicare need to stay with medicare to make it more solvent and if some of those savings from medicare are doing damage to the medicare provider network , like reducing access to medicare advantage, that we have a mechanism in here to make sure that we can fix that, just like we did for the sgr. we think we need to save and strengthen this program, not only so that it is there for those near retirement, but also those in future generations. second, we don't/the safety net. -- we don't slash the safety net. we strengthen it. this administration has made also to promises that it had no way of keeping. it has made all sorts of promises and it has not told us how they will keep them. it has promised major expansions and medicaid and pell grants. how they pan to play for it -- plan to pay for it, we have no idea. guest: paul ryan lives in an echo chamber. i personally like the guy. i think he is bright, b
