lemonis: how come, rich? important to me that he earns the respect of the employees there -- you know, that he doesn't demand it because he's my son. lemonis: and so a way to fix that is to issue him equity in a way where the profit and loss statement has an impact on his equity and the growth of the balance sheet has an impact on him, as well. i completely understand why rich is reluctant to give michael equity. and if i didn't think it would help the business, i wouldn't be pushing so hard. but what i ultimately want to do is give michael just enough to be satisfied and not upset rich. that's the real goal behind this plan. the hard part is that i just need rich to agree. what i'd like to do, rich, is put a plan in place that allows him to earn up to 5%. but in order for him to start to see the benefits of that, the debt that you and i have put in has to be paid back. richard: right. lemonis: the only way to do that is not spend money, not waste money, make more money. richard: exactly. lemonis: build the c

then we'll have struck rich.orter: but the fortunes made with jade aren't made by people like sam. and for as long as the mines are controlled by military elites, drug kingpins and ethnic kachin guerillas, the jade industry will benefit only a few. and peace in myanmar will remain elusive. anchor: myanmar is not the only nation where raw materials feed conflict. wood, coal, oil and rare earths are key to our global economy. but this commodity-based wealth comes at a high price. devastated forests, toxic soils, devastated forests, toxic soils, polluted water, for many countries, raw materials are more of a curse than a blessing . any rewards they bring usually end up in the hands of a few. while the masses remain poor. in many countries conflicts rage over raw materials, and the profits from mining end up funding terror and prolonging wars. like in panjshir in northern afghanistan. conditions in the emerald mines there are tough. and only a few reap the benefits. for most, the precious stones bring only misery. em

is wrong with the rich? they employ everybody else. what did phil graham say? i've never been hired by a poor man. jack camp said you can't hate job creators. >> neil: why are they on defense? >> because people don't understand politics. we have a very rich man that is president of the united states. he won the election. these people are terrified of being rich. i don't get it, neil. there's none wrong with john f. kennedy being rich. there's nothing wrong with being rich. there's something wrong with being poor. we want to make the poor richer. >> neil: what would ronald reagan think of these provisos he in here, a real rate that balloons north of 45% -- >> he would gag. we cut the highest rate from 50% to 20% and cut the corporate rates. we raised the lowest rate. we went 14 brackets to two brackets. we got rid of the deductions. just the things that these guys are putting back in. we had it and passed 97 to 3. hello! most of the democrats today like schumer voted for it. harry reid voted for it. they all

rich countries ladies and gentlemen that have a dual responsibility. we have been a part of climate change. we have experienced it too if we have experienced the transformation from the industrial era with all of the effects that we know now and today therefore when asked if you could be actively participate in the climate really transformation and a mitigating effects of climate change in rich countries having posed on the world . universal violence was the mood today. they do not have the choice of imposing their own tragedy next on the other countries in the world and so we have but one obsession action we only have one horrors and horizon the planning and that is now thank you. for watching our lives national coverage of the climate conference in bomb that was are you actually mentioned a man while macro i'm calling on europe to take more leadership in the fight against climate change in light of the u.s.'s departure from the climate accord but we can go now to bonn where our reporter japanese christopher spring gate is standing by for the latest s

the papers say that they now are shedding light on the secretive ways that the rich stay rich.nlbur ross has also advocated? >> we are looking at the papers. one of the papers is at the forefront of revealing the leaks and they call wilbur ross the minister of his own business dealings. he reportedly failed to disclose to contest -- disclose to congress that he has ties to allies of the vladimir putin. basically, he has been getting rich off the rush a link to business dealings as he served under donald trump in the white house. so this is definitely a serious conflict of interest. a belgian paper has written an interesting editorial saying you." the 1% we "salute the davids are fighting back .gainst the goliaths it accuses political leaders of waxing lyrical about fighting fiscal five and not doing enough to end it. >> these papers are reporting the arrest of several saudi princes. >> they seemed untouchable. that is what the washington post said in this article. the men were detained in a purge that swept up some of the most powerful and recognizable names in the country, inc

i wish we had more like seth rich. more young people willing to go out there and work for democracy. he wanted to see hillary clinton in the white house as well. god bless you, seth. god bless you. host: our last call is from missouri, democrats line, benton. caller: hey, donna. it's good to talk with you. i just have a few questions about the timing of the book. some say it is a time that is like beating a dead horse. so i feel like, are you trying to work with democrats to come up with solutions for the last up with theseends results, as far as long lines at ands and voter turnout hurting everyone -- herding everyone towards one candidate, hillary clinton. there was no opposition to her in the democrats. the distance it takes to get to polls. reduction of early voting, things like that. voter suppression by law. host: thank you. we will get a response. guest: first of all, thank you for your questions. the best time to talk about the election is when we are one year out, when it is still fresh in our memories. this i

don't think about rich people.utside of republicans in congress and donors most important to them, this bill doesn't have a lot of friends. lots of different types of people have reasons to be strongly against this. for example, anybody with health insurance, anybody who only got health insurance because of the affordable care act. all middle-class people, stakeholders in health care, doctors, hospitals, patient groups. even teachers who have to buy school supplies for their classrooms and any american who likes teachers doing that. i know democrats are all against it, republicans largely for it. i don't know what the plan is or what will happen next year but senator elizabeth warren joins us live next. time's up, insufficient prenatal care. and administrative paperwork, your days of drowning people are numbered. same goes for you, budget overruns. and rising costs, wipe that smile off your face. we're coming for you too. at optum, we're partnering across the health system to tackle its biggest challenges. whstuff

it offers to the rich and powerful: 0% tax rate and secrecy.of the game is hiding it. but now, that secrecy game is hiding it. but now, that secrecy has been breached. appleby isa secrecy has been breached. appleby is a legal firm that sells offshore services. 7 million of their documents have been leaked. that's the head office. we have to be very careful at this stage of the investigation. because appleby don't know that we have their data. we have been working on the documents for the past year. this march, we were invited to a secret meeting in munich. we don't talk about what we're doing. the documents were leaked to a german newspaper. we don't talk to our friends, ourfamilies, newspaper. we don't talk to our friends, our families, our colleagues. they are sharing the documents with the international consortium of investigative journalists will stop in the uk, that's panorama and the guardian. —— consortium of investigative journalists. . it will be very interesting to the public, because this is information that has never come out before

rich has to learn how to take some chances. like cash in the bank like you do, and i don't like debt, but i also like growth. you know what concerns me about michael is that he doesn't know his numbers the way he should. all right, let's go to work. i'd like to go maybe make some ice cream, do that. >> let's do it. >> so educate me on something. once the ingredients are established... >> yes. >> they can be modified into frozen yogurt? they can be modified into soft serve? >> correct. >> it's all the base. >> it's important for mr. green tea to expand their flavors and products, because once people fall in love with the brand, we want to make sure that we have a flavor for everybody. there's two ways you can grow this business. you can grow it vertically, up and down, by developing new flavors, or you can grow it horizontally, by creating new brands and new ideas. i want to make sure that we hit all parts of the market from a 5-year-old to a 50-year-old. what i don't like about the business today is, i don't like that the whole

this is for rich people.promise when they're running for office they will never raise taxes on low income people. it took obama 16 days to screw low income people with his first tax increase. and then there were eight tax increases on low income in obamacare. including that tax penalty that the republicans look like they're going to get rid of in this tax bill, mandate, penalty, if you don't buy obamacare we whack you. the only people that hits are low income people. stuart: what do you make of that story i reported at the top of the hour where the irs, i think they have gotten political? they are sending out letters to businesses to pay for a fine which was imposed three or four years ago, but they're going to impose it now because it is the trump administration, not the obama administration? you're laughing but this is a big deal. >> no, it's a big deal, coming out now remind people why this tax code needs to be fixed. reminds us why we need to go through the irs and frankly, a lot of people need to find an

sr.ly, people, the rich -- sorry, people, the rich drive economic growth.ich in this country by doing something remarkable. you can only do something remarkable insofar as those who already have means back you with investment. this isn't a tax cut, it penalizes the innovators with an even higher rate than 39.6% and also says to those who back them that you're going to pay the same penalties before the capital gains rate. there are no companies and no jobs without investment first. this tax bill does nothing -- why elect republicans if they're going to do worse than the democrats? david: let us know how you really feel sometime, john. [laughter] he's so clear and connect. but, lauren, "the wall street journal" came out with an editorial yesterday that said that this is just half a tax plan to which a lot of people are saying, well, half a tax plan is better than none, right? >> well, and that's the issue. this is where i would disagree with john and gary in many ways. you need to get this through. this tax plan has to pass. and to get moderate democrats or i

it's making the rich richer while the poor get poorer.me they shut down a bus line, every time they have to close a hospital, a lot of that happens because rich individuals and corporations are not paying their fairshare of corporations are not paying their fair share of the costs of society. how much money is being lost to the taxpayer? we're talking billions. worldwide estimates range quite widely, we're talking 300 to $600 billion a year lost to tax authorities around the world to the benefit of multinational corporations. no wonder in bermuda they don't like being called a tax haven. the problem with a tax haven is somebody else — haven. the problem with a tax haven is somebody else - excuse me. i'm not accusing you, sir. be careful. oxfa m not accusing you, sir. be careful. oxfam said you were the number one tax haven in the world. oxfam are wrong. why? a tax haven is a place that a, hides money, doesn't cooperate with otherjurisdictions and enables basically financial crime, terrorist financing and those sorts of things. you have a

, it is for the rich. of course they routinely, turned out they weren't telling the truth. the paper actually called them on it, which was shocking to me, shocking. [laughter] they said they're not telling the truth. this is a middle income tax reduction and it's a very big one. it will be the biggest tax reduction in the history of our country. thank you very much. everybody. appreciate it. thank you. trish: the president touting tax reform, tax cuts. the ability to put it all on a postcard. in fact i think he kissed the postcard, offered it to paul ryan, who joked i didn't know we would have props. this is important. the president recognizes how important it is, and don't forget, he is someone who ran on the economy as his platform. and, so far, so good anyway. 3% gdp. 23,000 plus on the dow, something he noted, pointing out the market closed higher more than 60 times since i've been elected. i'm back with gary kaltbaum and larry white. eventually became a big business owner, this is something president

>> neil: the rich are not part of this tax party. >> well, no.i'm saying is, that's where the benefits are going. >> neil: but not the benefits of this latest series of tax cuts that republicans are pushing, right? >> no. they're getting -- i think just getting rid of the alternative minimum tax alone is a huge one. i think dropping the corporate rate without any closing of the loop holes. >> neil: let me ask you while i have you here. when you challenged nancy pelosi, you got more votes than you thought you would get. a lot of people are critical of her saying these long in the tooth. do you want to challenge her again for the democratic leadership in the house? >> you know, i'm not focused on that at this point. >> neil: are you thinking about it? >> i haven't given much thought. my main goal is trying to get the democratic party back on track, talking about economics, getting wages up, pensions back. that's been my main goal and i'm going to continue to do that -- >> neil: you don't think she's too old for the job or whatever? >> no, i don't t

are rich and wealthy and theyjust don't want kind of sweet are rich and wealthy and they just don't and wealthy and theyjust don't want to wait for things to delay. for example, sometimes they might ask you, 0k, things to delay. for example, sometimes they might ask you, ok, i wa nt to sometimes they might ask you, ok, i want to see the diver coming when i have breakfast. because when she wa kes have breakfast. because when she wakes up, the first thing is she wa nts to wakes up, the first thing is she wants to see it, so we have to wait until she wakes up. so we will make it happen somehow. but not everyone can it happen somehow. but not everyone ca n afford it happen somehow. but not everyone can afford to or indeed wants to enjoy this level of indulgence. just maybe bigger, better and boulder isn't everyone's cup of tea, which ta kes isn't everyone's cup of tea, which takes us to paradigms shift i think is taking in dubai. away from mega— luxury towards more authentic pleasures, which may help in changing the perception of the emirate as a mere three—day stopover destination, or

and disturbing new data from hong kong shows the divide between rich and poor is at its highest level in decades. zimbabwe's president robert mugabe has made his first public appearance since he was put under house arrest by the military on wednesday pressure is mounting on the ninety three year old to step aside with his closest allies outstanding against him and his own designer pair of party calling for him to resign. reports from the capital harare. calls for president robert mugabe to step down are growing louder he was seen for the first time in public on friday days after the army seized control and confined him to a private residence in harare the people who helped him stay in power for nearly forty years the war veterans have called for an anti mugabe rally on saturday because of this who did it would. be flown don't you. want to be going to prison. if you didn't. it's a problem people. don't want to be responsible for. but what you assume is releasing their message when we want to. organize the money movements the war veterans are important in the country's power structure t

there are so many tax write-offs for the rich. it is nothing to raise taxes on the rich. a prorated tax is the only way you can attempt to put something down on the deficit. greta: ok, mike debonis, prorated tax rate? mike: not entirely sure what mark is referring to. of a one-year tax holiday would be extremely costly, to say the least. you talk about adding to the deficit, that would certainly do it. as mark pointed out, the deficits are absolutely an issue. we are going to be keeping an eye on that as things move forward. but, you know, this is a complicated bill, and there is a lot of ins and outs. greta: you can read all 400 pages if you so desire on her website at www.c-span.org. in our congressional chronicle page, you can find it there. west chesterfield, new hampshire. good morning. caller: good morning. you guys rock, i love this show. i really do. you have the greatest guests on always. i have two questions about the estate tax. number one, what was the original intent for the estate tax -- for the ultra rich people when they die, instead of all of their money

they worried that if a society was divided between rich and poor, the rich would oppose the poor, the poor would try to confiscate the weatlhy of the rich, and the result would be strife, violence and revolution. the founders themselves were very worried about this divide between rich and poor as well. in 1787 the governor said the rich will strive to establish their dominion and enslave the rest. they always did and always will. the result was that america would not be a public. it would become an oligarchy. and as a republic descends into oligarchy, the threats that the people will revolt. the pop populist revolts require leadership, and to a familiar mouse rapper and broadway star named alexander hamilton said, of those men who have overturned the lischs of republics, the greatest number began their career by pay court to people, commencing demagogues and ending tyrants. unequal societies were, therefore, condemned either to oligarchy or to tyranny. not a great situation if you're trying to set up a new government that you hope will last for the ages. and so thinkers came up with t

the corporations and the rich. wow. i'm not describing the soviet union or some fafanty or some impossible dream. i'm just describing americacan 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

. >> i really recent anybody saying that i'm just doing this for the rich. give me a break. i think you guys play that all the time and it gets old. >> liz: check out this heated exchange in the senate finance committee between republican senator oren hatch and democrat senator brown. hatch firing back at brown after brown said that the gop tax reform bill is just for the rich roll tape. >> i really recent anybody saying that i'm just doing this for the rich. give me a break. i think you guys overplay that all the time and it gets old and politically you ought to quit it i'm not through. i get kind of sick and tired of it. true it's a nice political play. >> well mr. chairman with all due respect i get sick and tired of the-- >> regular order mr. chairman. regular order. >> we do a tax break-- >> regular order. >> what you said was not right. that's all i'm saying. i come from the lower middle class originally. we didn't have anything so don't sue that stuff on me. >> liz: with me now wall street journal editor deputy editor dan henniger sitting there laughi

david: rich, what do you think? >> i think china and its military technology is a great threat to the united states going forward and if we don't have the best players on the field, you know, we're going to lose that race, a race we can't afford to lose and companies are doing the best predictive analytics and stuff like that. david: should we trust the private company with this information. >> it's a question, hacked, irs, pentagon, state department, i'm leary of it, but how pourous the government has been with data. david: that's true, there's history with government contracting out to private services, right? >> that's exactly what i was going to point out and from policing the streets to building roads, et cetera, and i think this is a viable public-private partnership to ensure that we're providing for the best in our national security. why not work together and bring the best minds together in doing that, rather than working in silos? >> and steve, i would hasten to add for those who have forgotten. sometimes

if you're rich and you have a private jet, you will get a break. it's one of the measures in the senate's tax reform plan which passed the finance committee last night. the break is under a measure under the tax cuts and jobs act. it excerpts jet owners from paying taxes related to upkeep and maintenance. so on your pj you get a little discount? i dreamed of having a pj. they are serious. >> eric: you can't deduct the mortgage but you can on your gulf stream and g2. >> julie: i don't know if that's going to make it. this is a pipe dream for a couple wealthy lawmakers. >> eric: you know who you are. you have the private jet. >> julie: pretty embarrassing. >> eric: it's been almost two months since hurricane maria devastated the island of puerto rico. many residents still don't have access to clean water and schools and businesses remain closed and electricity continues to be the most overwhelming of the issues. 57% of the island still remains without power. repair crews estimate that 75% will have power but not until the end of january. as a result,

|j class family will pay more and rich people will be paying less.n on corruption and consolidation of the monarchy‘s power, demanding 70% of these rich detainees' wealth in return for freedom. that is an unconfirmed number. ispoke return for freedom. that is an unconfirmed number. i spoke a business person who described it as a good old faked shake down —— old fashioned shake down, in case you need a reminder of who the boss it. the saudi arabia budget is running a deficit and that never happens and over the years many people have done well, particularly in the good old days when oil was over $100 a barrel. the oil price has been low and they have a generous state sponsored welfare scheme and a growing population. there is a panic there. they're trying to move like a whirlwind to reform the economy and they need money fast and these people have plenty of it and some of biggest figures in international business, a big shareholder in city group. some are sleeping on the floor of ritz. they can't send them to prison. that would be too disruptive, but y

it does not suck to be rich. harvey: there were struggles, failed businesses, evictions, massive debt, but he never lost his spirit or his passion for partying. - mark, you are wasted. - okay, maybe a little bit. ( laughter ) harvey: an internet company made him filthy rich, he overpaid for the mavericks, and turned the losing team into champions. when i watch the last 30 seconds of the-- when the mavericks won, it still makes me emotional. i mean, there's just nothing like it. harvey: "shark tank" made him a bona fide celeb, positioning him for a 2020 presidential run. scale of one to ten, where are you right now? harvey: mark cuban, fearless in life with a passion for winning. - mark. - what's up, harvey? - how you doing? - welcome. thank you. um, now i understand dallas living. - it's not bad. - not bad at all, right? - let's get started. okay. - let's do it. what's that? this is the stamp collector's book that my mom gave me when i was probably 16 years old. and she had collected them as a kid in pittsburgh.

tax bill is a giveaway to the rich -- >> i resent anybody saying i'm just doing this for the rich, givebreak. i think you guys overplay that all the time and it gets old. frankly, you ought to quit it. i get kind of sick and tired of it. it's not true. >> with all due respect i get sick and tired of the richest getting richer -- we do a tax -- >> order. >> over and over, how many times do we do this? >> listen. what you said it was not right. that's all i'm saying. i come from the lower middle class originally, we didn't have anything. don't spew that stuff on me. >> harris: okay, he joined us last hour on outnumbered, cohost of the bernie and sid show, executive in residence at american university school of public affairs, always great to see you. >> listen, people are tough, they are tough guys and he proved it there. orrin hatch did grow up in those circumstances, he had no electricity, no running water, his nickname was patches, i believe. it's a form -- the liberals definition of riches anybody who is not on food stamps. it's a kin to saying anybody who is for strong border is raci

it's for the superper, super rich. the one time we saw the one page of donald trump taxes was in 2005 and that was the year he actually paid a decent amount. and the reason was because of the alternative minimum tax. this is the law that basically got -- no one's really pushed against it, because the government put in place to make sure those superrich that have every trick in the book to avoid paying taxes, to make sure that they pay. that's gone. >> the only part that needs to be fixed is it wasn't indexed to inflation. increasingly people had lower incomes fell into the amt. the estate tax we ran some numbers yesterday, in the case of the trump estate, as calculated by forbes, this would net the trump kids in donald trump's -- in the case of donald trump's death $525 million. if you're thinking about buying a new home you can only write off mortgage interest for the first $500,000 of that loan instead of a current million. that's a lot of money, why does that affect me? in the high cost of living states like new yor

because we've got to take care of the super rich so that the pressure is on you. the list goes on and on. but it gets personal. and for families it makes a difference tooze whether their children can go to college -- as to whether their children can go to college, it makes a different as to whether they can make ends meet with their medical expenses. it makes a difference if they don't have their state and local tax deduction. again, this is a across the country, we're speaking from -- this is across the country, we're speaking from our california experience. it would take all night to go through the sins in this tax bill. just want to give you a touch of some of those and how they directly impact america's working families while they profess that they are helping them. it's not true. and then they say that -- then they say that, oh, it's going to pay for itself. never has. never has. don't take it from us. bruce bartlett, part of the supply side economics leadership, as well as the trickle-down economics, never said it would pay for itself. anybody says it does,

not about rich versus poor, but we can all rise together. charlie: what is the populism within the democratic party? david: the believe that the oligarchy is rigging the system. charlie: bernie sanders is the perfect example of laying everything on the foot of wall street. david: that fundamental inequality is the top 1%. it is not the top 1%, it is the top 20%. a less good bogeyman story to tell. the problem is the meritocracy and how people with degrees are investing in their children and isolating themselves through marriage and everything else and becoming more attenuated from the rest of the country. charlie: this is in part what inspired the arab spring. the recognition because of the access to media, because of the internet. these people and saw a lot of different people doingthe probld they weren't because of autocratic regimes and because -- they saw unemployment at eye level. they saw the world of competition and places where they were doing quite well. they revolted. certainly in egypt, that was what it was about. charlie: i did n

this man that was land rich is now land poor. he comes back to vermont totally frustrated in 1801, debtors are still pursuing him. he is in jail once or twice for debt. about 1809, he leaves vermont and goes to kentucky. he ends up in philadelphia. he is constantly trying to recoup his losses. he dies in philadelphia, this man who had so much to do with evenormation of the state, though i might find it hard to say he was the founder, he was one of the key people. he had a lot to do with the founding of the university of vermont. ira allen ends up a popper in philadelphia and dies there in 1814.
