security began issuing social security numbers, they were only used to administer the social security program. how important it is to protect their numbers. areal security numbers invaluable target for identity theft because of the regularly use by the federal government and private sector as a unique identifier. especially by the financial industry. time and again, we are reminded to protect our social security cards in order to avoid identity theft and to be careful with what documents we throw away in the trash. our social security numbers are connected to so many personal aspects of our lives from our social security benefits and finances to our medical histories and our education. in recent years, privacy concerns have become more and more critical. when i was in law school back in the dark ages, i did our great used to be posted on the wall to bep -- our grades used to posted on the wall to keep them private with security numbers and they were posted alphabetically so it'll's not that hard to figure out who's was whose. in fact, one of my very good friend's name was zigor and sh

we often hear if we just raise social security tax it will solve all of social security's problems. it is important folks understand the facts for social security earnings up to a certain called the taxable maximum. what's the taxable maximum this year? if the maximum were raised what would it be this year? >> right around 250,000, just a little bit less. >> some have suggested we should get rid of the taxable maximum and instead subject to payroll tax. would social security be solvant? >> it would be solvant longer. >> so the answer is no. at what point would costs exceed income? >> if we were to enact a change with no -- let's see, if we were to enact a change with no benefit credit for the extra we would actually solve about 80% of the long term and we would be good well into the 2060s for -- >> for the what? >> 2060s. >> really? >> if we we gave no benefit credit at all and taxed all income our sal van si date would move to 2083. if we give benefit credit and then include in our computation of benefits the extra earnings that were going to be taxed then we would extend the date

the social security trustees report came out last week. it showed that if we did not toe any benefit reforms social security whatsoever, and all we did was raise the payroll tax to pay for the benefits that are underfunded and overpromised , we would have to raise them by a quarter. if we did tax increases when the trust fund would be exhausted in 2034, the payroll tax would have to rise by over 1/3. massive tax increases on low-wage workers and middle-class americans if we like reform programs social security and medicare. no one is really talking about it as part of the tax reform debate right now. when it comes to certain programs, the caller is right. we need to look at the welfare programs on a more regular basis . earned income tax credit, the payment rate is over 24%. payments go to people that are not eligible for it. you can collect waste or abuse. it is hurting the american taxpayer. the fact that the house budget proposes cutting medicare by $487 billion. the budget proposal put out by president trump barely touches medicare. is

media and most of their friends aboard the social media certainly facebook's. gone out of fashion then people are on facebook all people parents and grandparents young people wouldn't be caught dead on facebook now the question is maybe they'll go from facebook to instagram or snap chat but at some point i think this generation of so-called digital natives is just going to get bored of all of these things so i think and i've been saying this for years that the real reaction to social media and technology is going to come from the digital natives the people who have grown up with this stuff and are just bored and discuss it and they just going to go back to the basics are they where they're going to go with something like artificial intelligence and connect their brains to a computer and i think what you're going to see is an interesting new book out called the revenge of analog you seen in the way in which this young generation is embrace final records you see in the way in which they now buy most skin pads you see in the way that they're starting to write lett

think mass incarceration fits in a similar vein although i think as opposed to previous forms of social control which were all about sort of captive black labor and the slave system freezing them in the south a sort of permanent serves now it's really more about the fact that we've gone to this globalized supply chain the sort of race to the bottom and wages and living standards all around the world and it's really instead of keeping people working in a particular context containing the social contradictions capitalism has created with people on mass not working particularly the black if you look in de industrialized centers of america. especially for african-americans we know statistically there is no work they are what marx would call redundant or surplus labor so their bodies are not producing profits for corporations however put in cages they produce forty or fifty thousand dollars a year for corporations and many people say the system is broken and i think you would agree it's not broken it works exactly the way it is designed to work you know absolutely i think that's a great poin

security reform programs like social security and medicare. that is something to think about that nobody is talking about with tax reform right now. with certain programs, the caller is absolutely right. we need to look at these welfare programs on a more regular basis. one example, the income tax credit. the improper payment rate there is over 24% where payments go to people and you can call it waste, you can call it of these, but it is hurting the american taxpayer. host: ok, let's talk about the fact that the house budget proposes cutting medicare by 487 billion dollars, but in the budget proposals put out by president trump, it barely touches medicare. is there going to be a policy battle ahead over medicare? guest: i don't think medicare and social security will be a big priority for either the congress or president this year. i think congress is trying to work with the president. the president has taken a hard line that he is not looking at making changes to medicare and social security right now. however, the president did show willingn

baby toby certain social good. -- maybe there will be more social good. imagine that.to being employed in the working class to being just poor. i want to foreground politics without being anti-technology. >> there is this media narrative about young people in america being very far left and arguably the farthest left generation the countries ever seen. there's a new generation of socialists, is that narrative true? is there a generational shift happening? >> at think it is true in this instance, in the united states, it is ascribed to youth and other cultural factors. france, notat deterred back to france, yes not to turn -- not to turn back to france. very are people that have similar cultures that americans have. there are all sorts of reasons for this. yes, young people are moving to the left. a lot of that has to do with politics. they have to do with the success of organizers. they have to do with a certain degree of cultural traits that makes america better than certain european countries, it ashard to build a xenophobic no nationalism in a state th

i think steve bannon is project, building a social majority of anything he wants to build a social majority is, in fact, harder than my project which is pretty damn hard, then bernie sanders the link of the majority social democratic kind of consensus. so i think he finally just just in the fact a lot of these people are well educated. they are the sons and daughters of the professional middle class. they are finding out that the promises told to them that if they work hard, keep your head down they will be able to get a stable job and be able to at least maintain their living standard is a lie. and i think that's leading to people to look for solution. if you are young you might have to find a coherent worldview, agree or disagree with it. in other places on the socialist left then you would in the venues of the center that actually don't have anything else to offer. but i don't want to just assume that demographics will take care of everything. i think that's part of the problem that got us into this mess to begin with. trump's election. >> i have one more question and then i will open it

socialism, democratic socialism, then and now, what exactly do they mean? and i would add on bernie sanders when he was at the university of chicago he was a member of yipsl, which is the yo young people socialist league. ron and other people have writ ben that. i assume he's no longer one, but what are the differences in these things? so i told the student these are things that we're trying to explore because i think a lot of americans are genuinely confused about these terms. what are the differences -- what's the difference between a communist, a socialist and a democratic socialist and all the others? so our purpose has always been educate, educate, educate and that's what we're trying to do here. all right. now with that, we're kicking off with three great people from grove city college, three people with a lot of experience. in fact, i was adding up the total amount of time. i came here in '96 and between me and the three of you, we've got about a hundred years covered in grove city coverage and if we add in, and we're exceeding the total grove city c

whether it had been the sweeping to shore up social security disability, social security lost about a year. a number of those things. folks who are probably actuaries. it is about $100 trillion underfunded. you and i could fish social security in a couple of hours over a couple of espressos. the hospital trust fund portion of medicare is out of money and less than seven years. the demographics as we grade gets older as a society, the curve explodes up the charts. remark, whybout the can't you get rid of the free programs? guest: there is a reality that a that are the programs earned entitlement, we have a lot of great data that says we may be hurting society and the very people who are receiving those benefits. how do you take something like social security disability and say we want to protect their brothers and sisters who need help, but help is helping you get back into the workforce because having you as a participant in the workforce has a multiplier effect to economic growth, productivity, future tax revenues. that needs to be our goal. we are going to have to reform social secu

so it's like social security, social insurance and a shared responsibility.because your point earlier on we want to allow employers to do what they would like to do, with so many would like to do that they can't. so let's make it possible for them to do it because we have people of goodwill. it's not that all employers are capable. that is not the case. >> so many of them say we are an employee business we don't want to penalize for taking time off when they are sick or have a child. i agree with you. your mother was a strong role model for you. she encouraged youth and other women to get into politics but you also write about how tough it is. tell us a little bit about that. the instances you write about. >> guest: my mother is 103-years-old. she lives with us in new haven and is an extraordinary woman. she finished formal school at the age of 13 and went to night school for high school but was kept home for a year because at that time you couldn' could infl you were 14-years-old. so she went to work at age 14. she worked at my grandmother's pastry shop for

whatever is to lift the cap and you will have a solvent social security system. when social security reached its lowest point, we had ronald reagan and tip o'neill who came together and acted, and the congress acted to make social security solvent into the futu future. all of this rating of ten about social security into being involved and can be solved immediately by lifting the cap and there are those that just don't want to do that. social security has been one of the most successful programs with big people out of poverty in this nation. i lived through the privatized social security on wall street. i note that in the book as well. we can solve this problem and we can solve it easily. what we need to deal with, we need to have a hard look at what we do with tax cuts and as we've seen in the past, tax cuts for the wealthiest people in the nation and over the years, we have seen the gap of the separation of people at the very top that are doing very well and that middle class families and working families that are struggling to send their kids to school and the

real talk of social justice i think we are hearing talk of social justice from all parties and i don't think social justice is the be all of one party of it is not own social justice is not the championship of one party or another and actually i have to say that i find it very difficult that the two main parties we have in the u.k. and now embroiled in internal politics rather than politics of our country and social justice because if you really want to talk about social justice in the u.k. while spec's it is being executed what is happening to our country everything that is we should be doing the m.p.'s should be talking about education our housing crisis. social justice from the point of view of rises in domestic violence in the fact that the n.h.s. is on the it's knees all of that is being put aside because it is occupying one hundred percent of their time now that is a real travesty of social justice judy miller thank you. after the break as the chief inspector of prison slams the staggering rise in violence we speak to the prison officers association about why the high court decis

there says that social security, they have been taking money out of social security. question is, when is congress going to pay it back? the was the guy that took money out, they would have foreclosed on my years ago, i to that e to talk banker. guest: i think that is a onderful question, one reason the budget tries to be able to make sure the funds are long-term, that is why we need reforms to limit ongress' ability to rob specific programs like this. it's crucial that we make sure are reaching the ages do have a program, they years, d into for many they can rely on and confidence in. in bloomberg,line another issue on the president's proposal.ax reform trump's massive tax cut plan places train wreck on the calendar. what is your impression of the president's proposal and how do do think congress -- when you think congress, the house can take that up? guest: on the right track, simplifying the tax code is what decades, longd for before we served in washington, d.c., not been a legit nat mid-80s, 1986, i believe. it is important while keeping charit ons, education, gi

you think there is a way to cut or reformed social security? nobody wants cuts and benefits but we know that we need some change in the program. >> list a on the people not paying. i'm trying to recall the figure. 100 and - list that -- when social security reaches lowest part we had filed -- we had ronald reagan and o'neill. they made this solvent into the future. this on all of this wringing of hands about social security and being insolvent can be solved immediately.by lifting the cap and there are those that just do not want to do that. social security has been one of the most successful programs at lifting people out of poverty in this nation. and those, i lived through you know, the desire to privatize social security. and it was you know i note that in the book as well. but we can solve this problem and we can solve it easily. where we need to deal with, we need to have been very hard cuts and as we seen in the - past, tax cuts for the wealthiest people in the nation. over the years we've seen the gap and the separation for those at the

we be limited just to social networking sites. would you agree that they could be using constitutional avoidance and could be narrowed to lease those? >> are busy, your honor that i'm not sure that it can't but i'm very important for the constitutional question that that is relevant and it goes back to what how do we win this case what is the biggest problem with the statute and the biggest problem -- >> to put in context. it is important for purposes of an applied challenge because what your client use with facebook right? >> yes. >> even if it was limited to those back our position for the very reason we talked about which was that just like the law in the jews for jesus airport case from los angeles and no first amendment activity in this place and this is a law that says no first amendment activity and says indiscriminate -- one of my problems with all of the sites today is that none of them are purely or very few are purely anything anymore. take something like lincoln which many many people in our society today are looking f

now, this is empowering for governments because if you are social movement anyone social change you needto convince people of certain things whereas if you are a government you just need to confuse them. if you want to stop a change and everyone is like i don't know what is true and someone says this and there's all these claims and misinformation and fake news and all of that i don't know is going on. that's a very effective way to curtail and distract and curtail the power of social movements, so in many ways the filter bill year, information overload that there is so much going on that we couldn't really figure out what's going on adult dosage in many ways just as empowering, it also i think strengthening the new form of authoritarianism that can use social media to listen to the population without letting them use power and also to confuse them and missing for them. >> misguide them. >> misguide them. >> coming back to your insights over those new technology doesn't really help at least so far for collective decision-making etc., but let's observe think about those movements. we see

[applause] host: it comes down to your understanding of human nature. david: the only -- other thing that people ask me, were you being financed, this is the new left. moscow gold was a big thing in the 1950's. we all scoff at it. moscow was financing american communist party as we now know. they asked me, who was financing new radicals, who went to burn wanted to burn down america and the answer was, you are. getting government money and what have you. they would ask me, what about the communist party and by then, the communist party was destroyed by the revelations of the khrushchev report. that is, i remember the right wingers who we hated likely method leawood say that stalin had murdered 7 million

over eighty years ago the social security act was signed into law in the u.s. now it was intended to protect the economic security of americans especially after they hit a certain age but the system hasn't kept up with demographic changes could face a crisis sooner than we think. is here in the studio with more for us on that kind of crisis relooking at now well it's basically nothing is down about social security we will start paying out more than we actually take in which would obviously be a very complicated problem to deal with the u.s. looks a lot different now compared to when social security was first introduced people are living longer and birth rates are much lower which means there are less young workers in the labor force and as a result of those changes the program hasn't been able to operate like it used to and if the government doesn't issue reform they won't have enough money to pay everyone's social security checks according to the social security administration trust funds will be depleted by two thousand and thirty four and. only seventy seven

maybe there will be certain social goods we could think about it. but i am more apt to envision that future once we're at that stage than i am now, when i know how many truckers and cab drivers and whoever else will be displaced and just go from being precariously employed in the working class to being just poor. so that's kind of my stance on technology. i want a foreground in politics without being anti-technology. >> there's this kind of media narrative about the young people in america being very far left, and arguably the farthest left generation the country's ever seen, you know, kind of a new generation of socialists, and how do you -- is that narrative true? is there a generational kind of shift happening? play that out for us. >> i think it's true in this instance, in the united states today, but it's often ascribed to like youth or these other cultural transhistorical cultural factors. if you look at france for example, not to turn back to france, but the national front, le pen might win a polarity of young people, millenials, right? these

solutions to social unrest and social justice projects. from working with the children, issues around race, fighting the clan, supporting the efforts of farm workers, american indian movement is a real rich history that's been rooted in the issue of social justice and my father was the founding director. the late reverend walker was really at the helm for so many years. i came about and got connected by birth. really is a result of my own interest in social justice and doing what i can do do what we can to make this a better world. >> how did it feel? how do you process continuing the kind of social justice work that your father and others started so many years ago and i ask because a lot of folk in this generation who were just coming in to their own fight for social justice. so many different fronts. and yet, you and others are the progre progity of those fighting the fight. >> literally being a young, youngish black woman having witnessed not only the work my father did but others he sure rounded himself with saw the importance of utili

if you look at social security and health together, the growth of social security and medicare of about one trillion dollars 10 years from now -- that is a when your number not a tenure number ofbasically is the genesis all the growth in revenue we are expecting even if we do not have a tax cut. the third one is said generationally we are giving youth a lot but only when you retire. we are asking you to pay more for your education. we are going to support your children less. a lot of other things, too, but don't worry because down the road we will give you a lot more. that is what the system says. i do not know of that is the bargain you want. my last one is, if i go beyond the legend in these issues and look at the growth in the economy, health care is totally dominating. the income growth in the economy is distorting our sense of what is happening there. income distribution, the sorts of things. medicare versus everything else, this first slideshows you the growth in all. i don't have all the updates yet so this is one year ago. this is cbo estimates of where they grow growth and spen

it's social change more generally. the idea that social change, these are good things and this requires a very large amount of openness in your society, a large amount of fluidity which is something that anywheres find not comfortable but desirable and look down on the inability to kind of handle and ride change. but the other kind of liberal mainstream ideas. the european union was one of them, too much the european union seemed to crystallize that modern european openness, but of course it did so at the price of reducing the democratic voice. now, a lot of somewheres have stop voting in elections because they felt things that faked -- affected their lives were imposed from the outside without any -- one of the key differences actually is the way in which -- in trade negotiations, global -- all of these global negotiations, anywheres are starting -- the assumption of anywheres is some sort of deal to further open up trade and goods and services and so on, movement to people, must inherently be a good thing and we must
