caller: made in the u.s.a. very good question. to me it is not necessarily about -- the problem is not whether it is made in the u.s.a. that is the overall problem. but if you look a little closer it is the consumption of very inexpensive products. so, i think this ralph lauren story is going to start the wheels turning for us to really set up some legislation to have things made here in the united states. if you look a little deeper, what you will find is that a lot of people are addicted to inexpensive products. so, somehow we as a country have to find the balance of products that are made here in the united states to be competitive on a cost basis within the stores. because we could say, hey, you know, we want it made in the u.s.a. but i can tell you if you have a product that is side by side, the united states product, let's say costs $100, the product from china costs $25 and they are the exact product. a smart consumer will go for the less expensive one. so it is a great thing that ralph lauren has done to have people's minds

the reason it's made in the u.s.a. largely is because we have a 10% tariff on imported wool coats from other countries. so we make it here in the united states. host: you'd pay more for? ? guest: i pay more, somebody else pockets the money. people should have the freedom and most americans given the choice would choose to do business with their friends and neighbors. but i can afford maybe 10% more for my suit but what if you're talking about a single mother who is buying new shoes for her kids with a 0% tariff, t-shirts with a 20% tariff. those are the people that are hurt the worst by our trade policy. guest: i think it's laudable that danny is trying to buy american. i think we need more buy american kind of policies. but in fact our own government is moving in the opposite direction. negotiations are now taking place over the next major global free credit agreement, the so-called transpacific partnership, there are measures that are going to outlaw any kind of labeling to identify country of origin. where things are

in the netherlands, cycling is inherently more safe than in the u.s.a. because all car drivers are also cyclists. 60% of the people in the netherlands cycle at least three times a week. 80% at least once a week. so all the car drivers are also cyclists and they know as they turn right that there is an 80% chance that they will cut off a cyclist if they don't look. so there is also safety by numbers. one last thing and that is about liability. when i hear about cycling in the u.s., people say, oh, but cycling is so dangerous. and then we say, no, cycling is not dangerous. cyclists hardly ever cause accidents. cars cause accidents. cars cause facilities and in the netherlands we have the philosophy that car drivers should realize that they're in a machine that can kill. and also from that on responsibility in taking liability. if a car drives over a child on a bike, no matter what happens, he is 100% liable for whatever happens. and even in the other cases, when a car goes in the collision with an adult on a bike, still there is at least 50% liability for t

so even though most americans believe the u.s.a. ble, the president is not yet down for the count. in addition to the awful economy, we are seeing a big social change in the country. younger americans especially are now dependent on the machines. in fact, many of them are addicted to high tech. when you have millions of citizens living in fantasy worlds, generated by personal computers, you have a distracted country. that's what happened to ancient rome. the population got so corrupt and apathetic that the powerful roman machine collapsed leading to hundreds of years of chaos across europe. america is not yet close to collapse, but we're in trouble. if president obama is reelected the national debt could rise to $20 trillion before he leaves office. we're also a divided nation. this presidential election is going to be close despite the pessimism. many americans now want government assistance and only 58% of american workers are currently paying any federal income tax at all. while president obama rails against the wealthy, it is the
