so, for example, the uniform system of accounts. equal access requirements that have really had no meaning in today's environment. the idea that if we have only 25% of households that are subscribing to a land line telephone, how do we deal with the requirement that we still have to make a network available to the remaining 75 that aren't using our service? these are issues that really go to the competitive balance, and they go to where investment lies. finally, the requirement that no matter what even when we deploy fiber that we have to make a voice-capable service available is one that is not imposed on others who are deploying fiber. and in many cases has led our companies to having to maintain two networks, a fiber network and a copper network. the copper network is quickly becoming one that the people don't use. in fact, today only 1% of the nation's communications consists of the original old voice traffic, 99% -- >> i was going to ask, fcc chairmen all say they're to-competition. i don't know nowadays who doesn't say democrat

the uniformep system of accounts separate and apart from gap accounting. we are the only provider of voice telephone service that has to keep the uniform system of accounts. it is a second backup, a separate form of books, from gap accounting. we were told that they didn't want to see those records anymore, they have no use for them, because those companies are no longer -- regulated. so we said we can no longer keep the accounts. they said they were -- they said, we are not ready to allow you to do that to you yet. investments, our live like to be putting our investments in the new stuff. we are required to put a lot of investment in the old stuff. one of the angst the fcc can do -- one of the things the sec can do is to follow the act. promote competition and reduce regulation. fcc is good at promoting competition but could be better at reducing regulation. things thata few the new chairman could do right away that you would welcome that would be helpful, from your perspective, in promoting competition and reducing regulation? what are couple things he could do right away? >> when you look across the board at those who provide voice telephone service to

we are the only provider of voice telephone service that has to keep the uniform system of accounts that is a second backus from gap accounting. now the fcc five years ago told her companies, we don't want to see those records anymore. we have no use for them because these companies are no longer rate-of-return regulated. so we said we would like to no longer keep accounts. they said we are not ready to allow you to do that yet great as a result today when we look at our investments we would like to be including all of our investment in the news staff but we are required to continue to put a lot of our investment in the old stuff. one of the things the fcc can do is to follow the act. two prongs to the act. promote competition and reduce regulation. the fcc is very good at promoting competition. the fcc could be better at reducing regulation. >> guest: let me ask as specifically as possible but what are a few things mr. wheeler could do right away that you would welcome that would be helpful from your perspective and promoting competition? what are a couple of things they could do right

your broadcast, we've got to restore respect for the teacher, for the system and make sure -- >> every public school kid in the country should wear a uniformmber one. that will send a message. >> i think it's great idea. >> but here, i want everybody to consider this, catholic schools are everywhere, all right? the education you get in catholic schools, generally speaking, is much better than the education you get in public schools. yet, catholic school teachers make less money. >> right. >> because they're not unionized. in d.c., when they had the voucher system, where did all the poor people go? catholic school. that's where they ran into. why? because there is discipline in a catholic school. >> right. >> there's standards in the catholic school. you can't curse at the teacher in a catholic school. you can't create pandemonium in that school. but you can in the public school. last word. >> well, you know, my generation out west, we had a uniform, a t-shirt and a pair of blue jeans, and just about everybody wore it. not a big problem. this crazy idea that we have to somehow bow down to unions, a public employee union, and give away the c

the air force. what i see from this summer and from everything we have done for people in uniform, the concern is that the budget system is keeping them from doing what they need to do. during the furloughs, civilians even complains about the impact it was having on their pocketbooks. people could not do what they needed to do for the air force in 32 hours a week. they worry about their ability to contribute to the mission in the way that they would want to. they worry about the impact it is having on the air force. >> if you're a pilot and you are sitting inside your squadron building and looking out the window at the airplanes that you are not flying at all, i think you probably believe -- you would feel pretty hollow right now. and that squadron, it certainly feels that way. we have to be concerned about that. that is the readiness issue that we face. we have to figure how to solve this. we do not want that to be the picture we are dealing with. that will have an income -- impact over time on our ability to fight wars. >> are using problems of retention? >> no, no we are not. >> you travel to china earlier this year

the in substitutions. >> there's not a uniformity that this is a good idea. let's think of lehman brothers, part of the reason there was a systemic collapse is all people who had invested in lehman brothers lost their money. what we've set up now is basically lehman brothers for everyone. if you invest in a bank and it collapsed, you're wiped out. if i'm an investor and want to put money in banks, i'm going to think twice. >> lots of fine print to be sorted out. what we understand, the process from here is complex, and full of problems, as well. the european finance ministers, their deal is done, but they have to work to turn it into a law and treaty. many problems pete outlined there are shared and felt strongly within the european parliament itself, so the work is not yet done. they are going to try to get it all done by may, 2014, because then there are european elections to parliament and the it will become more difficult if they don't do it by then. >> thanks very much indeed. that's it from london and europe. let's go back to dough happen. >> a special panel investigating the n.s.a. has recommended it should have powers res

the argument, that well the only >>> the federal system of 00 states give the citizen a right to vote with his feet as long as the rules and regulations are not uniform is a kind of built-in control on how bad a state government can get because if it passes a certain point the people just pack up and move to another state where things are better and this has been the historic pattern. we saw this a few years ago in michigan before governor romney went into office under governor williams, the industrial picture had grown so bad the automobile plants were doing all their expanding across state lines over into ohio and suddenly the people of michigan did something about it. they realized the economy was going down the drain and took action. now, this is -- has historically happened and look at carefully throwing away this control. let's say that all of the rules become uniform that walter reuther has his way and unemployment insurance becomes nationwide and all the rules for disability insurance and welfare, all of these things become a pattern nation of wide and then if you object to the policies of government where do you go? you just stay where you a

the house of point tatives at any this year. as my colleague from nevada also pointed out, we have a very broken immigration system. there's almost uniform agreement across the aisle about that fact. there's been a failure to bring a meaningful piece of immigration reform legislation to the floor of the house of representatives. despite the overwhelming demand for action by the american people. now, we all agree, as the c.b.c. indicated earlier this year, in february, when we took to the floor to talk about the need to address the issue of the broken immigration system, that something needs to be done. and there really are only three possible options. one, we've got mass deportation of the 11 million undocumented individuals who are in this country. that's option number one. option number two is the status quo. just leave the broken immigration system in place. option number three is meaningful, comprehensive immigration reform with a tough but fair pathway toward citizenship. mass deportation is impractical. the status quo is unacceptable. comprehensive immigration reform is the right thing to do for this country, for the economy, for t

the uniform code of military justice. and added that no person who he designated for trial would have the privilege to appeal to any federal state, foreign or international court. so the idea was to have a systemf justice that really was starting from scratch. and what i discovered in writing the book. it's hard to set up a system of just fries scratch. because people have to actually implement it start having questions about what to do. what type of evidence. what is reasonable. and what is fair. to be fair, the order also directed that the trials be full and fair. the book shows how many of these him tear lawyers grappled with the questions of what it means to have a fair trail when you are doing so without any "rule book" at all. to guide you. in non-fiction. you often don't have the advantage of novelists of being able to create characters in situations that perfectly represent everything you want to go forward. but i came close with this book. i ran in to a marine officer named couch. couch was one figure whose experience in military commissions seemed to touch on almost all of the issues that continued to affect the project today. he had been -- well, like many heft from the south. north

the goals for a long time on insurance modernization has been this concept of trying to create more uniform -- first of all, hopefully less government price and product control and more competition infused into the system. we have sort of moved in the other direction in some ways in recent years because now we have regulation that the federal reserve on top of the tangled web of state drucker sees and regulations. i think now more than ever that we restart this conversation on how to best serve the consumer in this country and it appears the report is off the printer so my hope was this will shed some more light on what we should expect and will that report include specific language on recommendations to improved the uniformity, the uniformity of insurance regulation in the country or even our ability to deal with international regulatory issues where we are out of compliance and so forth? >> congressman i don't want to jump too far ahead of the report being released so that you can read it and make an evaluation of it on your own its entirety but i would say this, that and the work that has been done in preparing it, there has been a lot of focus on the fact that we have a history of state regulation

the pentagon budget, fraud, abuse? and again, one weapon system after another that we just don't need? i mean, i think paul has it backwards. we start with the men and women in uniform. we start with the promise congress made them. we start by taking care of the people that have taken care of us our entire lives. >> what about starting with the defense budget itself? there is no line item in the budget i would submit that is more capable of being slashed, cut, than the defense department budget. but not with veterans and veterans benefits, pensions, medical care. not with that. >> for four years we've been complaining about this war in afghanistan that has droned on, which paul ryan was afraid to come out along with every either in congress, was afraid to come out and say as we were saying in 2010 it's time to get out and stop spending $2 billion. think about that. we have been wasting $2 billion a week in afghanistan for years now. and from 2009, 2010, it was obvious that it was a waste. how much would $2 billion a week for military retirees add up? >> how many defense contractors are there? >> it's nonsense. it's absolute nonsense. i talked about it last week. the

uniform value required tanks to hold cash reserves against both deposits and notes and established the office of comptroller currency to grant charters to banks without formal congressional action thereby creating the tool banking system of national and state chartered banks. following the civil war a financial boom associated with rapid expansion of railroads, fat juries was followed by a financial panic and economic depression in the 1870. another recession occurred from 1882 to 1985 followed by multiple panics in the 1890s. in 1901 the stock market crash briefly following speculative attempts to corner the market. in 1907 the new york stock exchange stock values declined dramatically in march following an unsuccessful attempt to corner the market on united copper company stock. as a result many depositors withdrew funds from banks associated with the unsuccessful corner spreading to withdrawals from other banks leading to public panic and large-scale liquidation of car loans, short-term loans used to finance stock market purchases. thousands of banks and businesses closed. jpmorgan and other tankers ultimately step into supply wavering banks with funds to alleviate the panic. given the weaknesses exposed in america
