but i support social security. and therefore, if you support social security you should support contributions to it. and those who say we should try to run social security without contributions i think are undermining the long-term future. >> so it should be smaller in other places. this is a place where it should remain robust. >> i think we have made a commitment to seniors. we know that 10,000 are retiring each day. and that already the program is running approximately $10 billion in the red. if you pass this legislation cutting contributions to social security as the president outlined, we won't run $10 trillion in the red. we will run $270 trillion in the red. ar it's not just as the president has outlined. house speaker boehner and your leader mitch mcconnell in the senate are all in favor of extending this benefit because they say it's not the time to hit americans 160 million working americans with a thousand dollar tax hike 234e6ked year. so you consider yourself as an outliar. in your party. even the cand

he is not for degreasing contributions to the social security funds.thers are saying it would be a tax hike on the payroll tax if you let it expire. what is the reality in the house and the senate approved does it go through? >> the reality is that they will extend this payroll tax that president obama wanted last year and that they gave him last year. there will be no political pain for everyone, or in january, when there is political paid for everyone. everyone's pay checks will go down. you will see your paycheck reduced if you work in this country, so if it gets to this point, they will quickly be back to pass the payroll tax cut, and my guess is that it will happen before they leave town before christmas. >> and what we saw was this divide in the republican party. speaker john boehner and mitch mcconnell have been working hard to get support for extending this tax provision in 2012, and they have faced a lot of resistance. one of the obstacles they have had to overcome is exactly what senator kirk was talking about. i know the -- there was a meeti

the social networking of the social internet media social networks if we compare them to traditional print media electronic media. yeah so we still spent in the obama campaign still spent millions of millions of dollars on t.v. advertising drives. a certain amount of viewers but what we've seen happen is this slip of of the amount of people watching television versus getting their news online or or getting there whether my family is very traditional they used to watch the news in watched whether before going to bed now that's no longer the case now you can get the weather and sports scores and things like this on your phone and so with the rise of people taping their favorite programs d.v.r. steve those things like this you've seen more and more people skipping through these political commercials so could we actually make up some of that value through other means and where those other means millions and millions of americans have turned to online and now even mobile communication for where they get their daily news and so how do we actually organize and advertise and advocate in thes

i went into this lab and they were building these awesome social robots., there was something about social robots that captured my imagination and like from the first project that we did in that lab, we had built this interactive sort of ter rarium. there was a robot that didn't look like a person, almost had like a hand sort of thing at the top. if there were people around suddenly that sort of hand becomes a face. not that it had eyes, just in how it's acting and checks out the people along the way. curious. simple behavior system but one we get right away. people what come back. felt like epcot center. they wave a lot, get too excited, comes too close, it gets scared and runs back. right. it was simple, right. but if you design the behavior system like be that, like that's something there's no speech, like but it's totally you just understand right away. it was fun watching people interact with that. from the very beginning, i always gottenen to able to create robots people cared about and were installed in places where i could watch that interaction. y

choosing sides you know what do you really believe in the market or government is best able to save social problems so we're used to thinking of these as opposed principles but actually if you look at it historically you know societies that don't have states generally don't have markets markets first seem to arise as a kind of side effect of bureaucracy this and for them much of human history there really is a side effect of military operations so the opposition really isn't there in fact i noted in in your book you you talked about how the u.s. debt is really a a war debt in fact do you believe you explicitly call that that there was a graph also in there that compared the accumulation of u.s. debt to to to our military spending to. you know what i mean the u.s. debt originated the cost of fighting the revolutionary war and it's pretty much always been a war debt more or less and it's always been with us too the idea of getting rid of it seems remarkably unrealistic considering it's been here is essentially since seven hundred seventy six is if we were to get rid of debt would. you know a

breakdown of society is going to open minds this is the bio social pressure that is basically caused every major shift in human society the problems that are on the horizon are going to slowly get everyone to step back and say what do we do now and that's where i think the importance of of you and everyone that's aware of this we have to get together and show people what a solution can be and get them on board and get a mass movement if you will to enable it to come forward that sounds very simplistic and it's an overgeneralization but it's not going to happen through government policy governments are far to interlock today into corporate the corporate institution governments are corporations all u.s. government is the parent corporation of all these subsidies known as the basically the industry central that's really all the u.s. government does it's funded supported and regulated by corporations it always was by the way this isn't some anomaly that occurred it's just the nature of the game we shouldn't expect anything less peter i think it's a mass grassroots movement not a grassroo

but tell us the state of social security. >> andrea: social security used to run a surplus. the red permanently. everybody knows when you pay the payroll tax, half goes to fica and the other goes to the social security trust fund. lawmakers have been raiding the trust fund on the right and the left for years. they put ious in it, ious they will never ever be able to pay back. that is why when you have someone like rick perry or a newt gingrich who said private accounts, if i have a private account now, i wouldn't care what the bums are doing in d.c. they couldn't touch my money. this is why, though, it's such an important issue. think what the president did. he just took -- it's not raidal it what they just did. they are just not funding it. >> eric: juan, they made a political battle. it was right versus left. one side that used to like lower taxes is fighting for not extending the taxes. they made at it partisan battle. the bottom line, social security is screwed. >> eric: social security has been, you know, in some financial venues for some time. everybody knows there wil

>> it has to hit social security recipients. what this does is it cuts the contribution to social security. under the democratic plan, they have a political tax against millionaires. it doesn't recover the losses until 2021. three presidential terms from now. under the republican bill, it's a set of pay, a set of spending reductions, which may or may not be enacted over time that still doesn't pay the losses back to social security. until 2018. you know, seniors have enough to worry about, they shouldn't worry about the congress cripples the social security trust fund. >> andrea, if i may, you know if you look at where we are today, we have $15 trillion of debt. weaver going to $17 trillion and we're projected to go to $21 trillion by 2021. if we have that much debt that we're carrying, we're adding more to it and taking away a funding stream. don't you believe that's a disaster, that's going to happen? a wreck that's going to happen? that's all we're saying and if we're going $5 billion a day, every working day, $5 billion more

"guest: the point you make in your first one, the previous guest, the guest of yesterday was not lying. the are pay-for in democrat and theublican versions of bill. the problem is in my view if we're going to have this, my complaint is what they are being used to pay for in the sense that in the republican version we are taking the reduced spending that was recommended in using it for this as compared to ever-reducing our country's debt and deficit. i would expect that there will futurefor in bills. the other concern is we are now paying salsa's security money paid for that people work and go into the trust fund, we are replacing that with the will of congress to replace that money on an ongoing basis. i did not trust congress to protect the solvency of the social security trust fund. we're better off keeping social security -- there is no

so we were starting to use social media. what i've begun to understand now -- social media is an accelerant. it's not the cause but an accelerant. what is interesting is what is happening with social media in china because the regime is doing everything it can to control the internet. it's terrified of the internet. in fact, packing into serveries to try to find that last human rights advocate who might be online, and apparently social media is going wild in china. and the regime is not so certain that maybe it's not a bad thing, that people have a way to vent through social media. so, you remember the story of this young girl that was run over in the streets and people -- that exploded into the social media in china. but i would say to the regime, it's one thing to think that people will just vent. eventually they will vent and want to organize and do something about it. so social media, is going to continue to have a huge impact on how revel luigs -- revolution and how reforms take place. >> foreign policy experts years ah

issues like the size of government, the government share of the economy, the tax code, redistributed social welfare programs, regulations of private economic activity. the social issues like abortion and gay rights, all the types of issues we normally think of is the fighting left from right. to what extent those can account for the rise of partisanship. >> go ahead. >> what i find is those issues are of course centrally important to understanding partisan conflict in congress, but they cannot begin to account for the extent of partisan conflict. conflict. partisan conflict curse on all types of issues regardless of whether they have anything to do with what we think of is left versus right. >> did those issues that you just mentioned, did they just come about in the last 30 years or had they been around for a long time? >> they've been around for a long time. interestingly, we have been described american as ideological and orientation throughout american history. sort of conventional wisdom of earlier eras of scholarships and back in politics is that american politics is nonideological. s

s to run on social issues or foreign policy issues that may not exactly germane to what we're arguing about. >> james, our colleague kim strossle made the case at that even social conservatives in iowa for them like everyone else in america, the economy is the major issue and keep pushing that theme you're not going to get the traction you might have in previous years. >> they know the candidates in the republican field are better than the president in social issues. getting back to santorum, one of those guys better than in the debates and he's talked about the manufacturing tax cut and people who don't work in manufacturing might say well, what good is that? and it actually cuts taxes for everybody and for all businesses. so he's the guy he's got a background of pressing economic freedom in the house and senator. >> if you talk about partial birth aportion as almost exclusively in iowa, you're showing a tone deafness. >> it's what we're saying is true, why isn't john huntsman doing better? because john huntsman probably has the strongest economic plan of all the candidates up there

is part of a larger plan like lifting the cap on social security to make social security hole and then actually if they lifted the cap to infinite from zero they they could keep this cut permanent i mean you know that that's one possibility but anyhow so it looks like the fact checkers over a lot of. political fact. need some fact checking yesterday they say that the democratic claim that paul ryan was trying to end medicare as we know it was not just the biggest not a not just a lie and not just a pacifier lie but the biggest lie of the year and what blows my mind is that it wasn't the democrats who said it it was the wall street journal the democrats were quoting in the wall street journal in the ad the political fact is complained about i mean what's with these people well i think it's six to six and one and a half a dozen in the other i mean the point is the that the idea that paul ryan was presenting a plan that would end medicare as was true was a larger you know here's here's my question for you because political act makes the same point that many conservatives are making for th

candidates is i think they dwell too much on social issues. and while they might pass the credential check as far as their economic policies go, i just don't think they're people. i, they alienate moderate voters and independents. and while they might excite the base, i just don't see them doing well at all in a general election. >> woodruff: when do you think you're going to make up your mind? >> probably tuesday. >> i'll have it done by sunday. and then i'll think about it. >> woodruff: we appreciate all of you talking with us about these caucuses. thank you very much. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> you're very welcome. thanks for having us. >> lehrer: for the record, texas governor rick perry's name did not come up in judy's discussion. >> brown: as we heard in judy's conversation, four years ago it was arkansas governor mike huckabee who beat mitt romney and all others to win the iowa republican caucus. his success came with the strong support of conservative evangelical christians. tonight's edition of "need to know" explores the power of
