of the school of political science at university polonia you're very welcome the proposal is there someof them that we listed very controversial what are the chances of them actually coming becoming a reality. well i'd say that in general terms you have a couple of proposals which could be implemented quite realistically so on the one hand you have a proposal for in adjustment to the pension reform which would probably cost around five billion euros per year and so this should be feasible in fiscal terms and you also have i think a change in terms of the immigration policy which should be feasible in practical terms on the other hand you have some proposals like the proposal of cutting the italian debt by two hundred fifty billion which sounds a bit impractical and also i have some doubts regarding the universal income scheme which was proposed because it will be probably too too costly for the telling budget and how you think brussels is going to react because i mean one of the ones we featured quite heavily is the fact they might lift russian sanctions if they do manage to form a gove

of the starkest examples is that marquette university. a private catholic school in milwaukee. political scienceor john mcadams was suspended and has been since 2014 when he chastised a graduate instructor named cheryl. why? she apparently told a student that she would not tolerate dissent on the topic of same-sex marriage during her class on ethics. marquette says it has the legal right to suspend mcadams because he opened her up to threats by criticizing her by name. the case is now headed to wisconsin supreme court. joining us now to explain further this profession mcadams himself. professor, you have taught for 30 years at marquette and it's a catholic institution and yet this instructor berated a student who said basically not all of us agree on the review on same-sex marriage. tell us >> that's right. it seemed ironic because marquette claims to be a catholic institution but i think a lot of your viewers know that a lot of institutions claim to be catholic and fundamentally they are secular and politically correct. >> laura: didn't they demand that you prostrate yourself basically and apol
