rich: man. gavin: rich says it'll be a while before he wraps his mind around the strange turn his story has taken. but he has already learned one thing, that the difference between success and failure is sometimes all in how you look at it. now, an update to a recent "bay area proud" story we did on an ambitious home building project. the walls and roof are now up on a tiny home at john sinnott elementary school. a ribbon cutting ceremony was held to celebrate the project. we first introduced you to sixth grade teacher, rita maultsby, in february, taking the concept of project based learning to the max. she and her students built a real, permanent, 200 square foot home right on campus. rita maultsby: one of my students said to me when i said, "the sky's the limit, you take your project wherever you want," and this one student raised his hand and said, "why is the sky the limit? why can't we go--" i get emotional. but, "why can't we go higher than that?" and when a student says that, then you kno

they worried if a society was deeply divided into rich and for the rich would oppress the poor, the poor would try to confiscate the wealth of the rich and the results would be strife, violence and revolution. the founders knew the history, they were steeped in history and they were well aware that economic inequality is a serious source of instability, they knew that if the wealthy took power, it would slowly start to tilt the laws so outcomes would favor them. as john taylor said in 1814, when the rich under the poor it is slow and legal. the people, increasingly angry at rising economic and political inequality would respond but not through some sort of mass uprising. they would look for a leader to help them overthrow the oligarchy. future broadway sensation alexander hamilton, you may have heard of him, he did not give up his shot. he said in the first of the federalist papers, of those men who overturned the liberties of republics the greatest number have begun their career by paying an obsequious court to the people commencing demagogues and ending tyrants. oligarchy, tierney. cit

>> i don't know how you define rich. so let's see what he's putting as rich.it's somebody making $5 million a year, we'll see where that is. i certainly don't think i can say which person is rich or not. we'll have to see what the senate and the house and the -- >> neil: the reason why i ask, he met with robert kraft and talking with steve bannon, his strategist that is an advocate for higher taxes on the wealthy. i don't know where that began. let's say it was $500,000 and over club. i could be wrong. the message some fear on the hill that could be sending is that -- is this president dialling back the size of tax cuts at this point when the focus will be on the middle class, as you are -- as republicans think it should be, democrats think it should be and corporate taxes. they as a group will not be included. >> they're going to have to take a look at the numbers and make sure it adds up. the priority is the middle class. that makes sense. they're taking the brunt of everything from healthcare to stagnant wages -- >> neil: sounds like they're crunching numbe

>> if we think we can tax by taking the rich we will run out of rich people.f tax policy that promotes growth. right now anything is on the table but at the end of the day. and and we get people back to work. today, we're out here with some big news about type 2 diabetes. you have type 2 diabetes, right?yes. so let me ask you this... how does diabetes affect your heart? it doesn't, does it? actually, it does. type 2 diabetes can make you twice as likely to die from a cardiovascular event, like a heart attack or stroke. and with heart disease, your risk is even higher. you didn't know that. no. yeah. but, wait, there's good news for adults who have type 2 diabetes and heart disease. jardiance is the only type 2 diabetes pill with a lifesaving cardiovascular benefit. jardiance is proven to both significantly reduce the chance of dying from a cardiovascular event in adults who have type 2 diabetes and heart disease and lower your a1c. jardiance can cause serious side effects including dehydration. this may cause you to feel dizzy, faint, or lightheaded, or weak u

what do you think, rich? >> what i think, steve forbes brings up this all the time and it's a novel idea, that once you hear makes sense. in another part of the world you have a growing market and growing demand, is this a problem? the free market would love to serve the rising demands of people want better health, more health, more sophisticated health care. >> we've never had a free market delivery in health care? >> you're absolutely right. the problem, where does it go? it goes to what's happening to that family in england where told by the government of england their child must die. they can't bring their child out of the country to the united states for perhaps a miraculous cure. that's where government control takes you. >> sabrina come in on that. >> and to rich's point of government. the less in the private sector to solve the problem. it seems easy to throw money at the opioid ep dem, which is real and scary, but what is ignored in this are the ways that some of the drug companies are trying to come

i was talking with bob kraft over dish and he said don't worry about the rich people, tax the rich people, then he said he will take care of hits friends and also the middle class people in this country. are there a list of the rich people he's going to take care of and everybody else is going to get taxed? kennedy: when you are warren buffet or bob kraft, it's easy to say that because they will never run out of money. harris: creating jobs is something that makes us all salivate. but that's got to be consistent with policy, and there is mixed message coming from one source right now. kennedy: i get fed up with the idea it's a zero-sum game. you can only cut taxes a little for one group and the others get punished. >> this is huge for him and for donald trump and for his base. if they are able to fast comprehensive reforms and changes in the tax code. and sort of alleviate the concerns that susan collins, her could you ski when it comes to healthcare going forward. kennedy: the tax reform needs time. >> one of the problems is donald trump isn't particularly good at it. and he gives away a

as he left, he said donald, don't worry about the rich people. tax the rich people. you've got to take care of the people in the country. if was a very interesting statement. i feel the same way.

the corporations and the rich. wow. i'm not describing the soviet union or some fafanty or some impossible dream. i'm just describing american history, and d not so long ago, either. wow. just to drive it home, roosevelt--how did he actually do this? he was very courageous and clever. in the midst of world war ii, to make this point really strong, he proposed a novel income tax. here's how itit would work. above a certain level--and thehe level in those years was s $25,000 a year-- the income tax rate that would have to o be paiaid is--presid's proposal--100%. that's right. $25,000 a year would bececome a maximum income. you know how we havave a minimum wag?? this would be the maximum income, the other end. the republicans, predictably, went crazy. and they fought and they yelled, and they reached a compromise. and the compromise was that above the top, the highest rate, the richest americans would hencnceforth havave to pay 94%. the law signed by the president. if you were rich in the 1940s, every dollar over the top l

don't you think a lot of rich people today are getting rich at expense of others?ess are millionaires. do you really think they got rich by serving customers? >> we tend to pay attention where markets break down. market pope opponents love to pay attention to cases where markets break down. 99.9% of the market transactions are every day where it is working well for both people. i would love to see us get better telling that story, telling that narrative. using some language that has been co-opted by antimarket forces to start bringing that back into the fold. i think it is actually ours to begin with. [applause] >> hi, i'm hunter. i go to university of north carolina at chapel hill. i love capitalism but there are a lot of people out there that associate it with negative things such as imperialism, or, corporatism. >> the rest of your peer group will hear that and say, another guy who loves capitalism. what is capital to begin with? i don't even know what capital is. we need to think about changing way we talk about. hey, i'm so-and-so i love justice. i'm so-and-so

republican leadership and most of the republicans the following line are for the cutting taxes on the rich and eviscerating medicaid. the american people i think only 12% of them like it right now. people have tried to sit down in the past and we will sit down now. we want to improve the existing system. not cut taxes on the rich or/medicaid. >> inaudible if republicans want to blame someone, they should look in the mirror. they sent fewer than any recent president and the dysfunction of the white house has spread to the senate. this two-week gambit has far more to do with the problems that they are having with the healthcare bill. that is what they are wrestling with, not these other issues he speaks about than it does with anything else. >> that is aimed for me to decide, but the claims of the administration for the last six months, that's collusion isn't even on the table. it's made available to the senate committee is a. they don't want to go home to their constituents. they started on january 4 to exclude democrats because they said they didn't need us and they did what is called conc

to create states of hardly any taxation for the rich.lusionment, really planned bringing down of the states as we once knew it. to pick the theme around the liberal democracies and the malaise, when trump came to europe, immediately after he left hungary and after he left poland, there was a retreat in those countries in terms of that liberal democracy. i think trump exemplifies, and it's interesting john was saying he's the symptom not the cause of the malaise growing for decades in america. that's notjust true in the us, it is true in the uk. we've had r.n. situation with brexit. it's true in other countries. even in france, you might celebrate macron for now, how long will that last? is macron merely a coverfor will that last? is macron merely a cover for something will that last? is macron merely a coverfor something much deeper? what's been really worrying is that on all the important thing is that america ought to be engaging on with its climate change, dealing with terrorism, whether it's dealing with the consequences of the finan
