and all that in the modern metropolis of singapore, the wealthy city state with its veneer of western sophistication. but it takes hundreds of thousands of low-paid workers to keep its shiny facade polished, including 200,000 domestic workers. they're brought to market in the center of singapore, offered to households for a pittance by agencies. women who come from indonesia, myanmar or the philippines in search of a better life for their families back home. as a domestic worker, they can earn more in singapore than doctors or academics in their home countries. and the recruiting agencies make handsome profits with their human merchandise. demand is high. a housemaid is a must, even for singapore's lower middle class. suzane tan has arrived to pick up the new domestic worker she ordered by phone. apriana is from indonesia. she's 35 and has a six-year-old daughter, but that doesn't interest suzane tan. all she wants to know is if apriana can clean and cook well. >> one of the maids have been with me, this year will have been the eighth year. that is a philippina maid. if you have a mai

central part of people's lives, the rise of big business and capitalism that leads to class divisions, a small number of wealthy people, a large number of poor, the growth of cities and immigration that disrupts american society. when we look at that new wealth, this new class of wealthy people and all of the wealth that is being created in this new era, we see that it is not distributed equally, that it is divided both geographically and in terms of the population. first of all, these new businesses are mostly in the cities. right? they are not out in the countryside. we talked about how new businesses are in the cities where they can take advantage of of the population to get workers, and have access to new infrastructure, waterworks, electricity, gas, and so forth. so the bulk of the wealth is in the cities. in addition, the wealth is not distributed equally. there is a small number of fortunes,ing immense and a small, a bigger but still not large number of people who are moving to the middle class. and these people are largely nativeborn americans, not immigrants. they are mostly white, and they are mostly protestant christians. they are not jews, they are no

the winners list is benefitting new york and california. big cities with lots of wealthy people. you talk about the drivers of the president's base and a lot of these swing districts in the house and some of these as ron was saying. those are poorer folks and working class folks. those are the people for whom obamacare was designed to help. essentially this bill which the president keeps saying was a huge improvement of obamacare, does the opposite. you have an interesting moment when he met with the perimetrim minister of australia and glowing about the health care bill passage and said in australia, you have better health care. >> they have universal health care. >> obamacare is not universal, but it is closer than this. >> he was touting that as the model or something as great. >> this is a bill that has made several people make statements on the record. among them the president. he will not be reelected for another couple years if he runs. it will put a lot of members on congress in the next year and a half in a difficult spot for the reasons we just said. >> now look at the

at a minimum, i think the most charitable thing you can say when you read this story, he's a very wealthy man and use to picking up the phone and getting things done and new york city and in his real estate deals and he thinks that works to a better investigation that involves nefarious influence by a foreign power, but then you see, you know, senator blumenthal gets in front of it. you see it brian, somewhat married in that story. below the name, which describes trump asking two senior intelligence officials to come out and essentially say he's not under investigation and clear him. other white house officials are not named in the story, apparently made inquiries without getting them to pressure comey now fired to drop his investigation into michael flynn. and there's really no way to explain that away, so in the first case, trump could be a rich guy who thinks hey, i have this guy wh is not more people come out and say something. it should not make those phone calls it's inappropriate. it's crossing into lanes you should not be in. the second part of it, brian, i think is very troubling the white house officials are leaning on people saying, go to comey, get him

charitable thing you can say when you read the story is donald trump is a very wealthy man who is used to picking up the phone and getting things done in new york city and his real estate deals and he thinks that works in the federal government even when it applies to a federal investigation that involves possible nefarious influence by a foreign power. but then you see, senator blumenthal put this well. you start to see intent in particular, brian, i think somewhat buried in that story below the lead which descres trump asking two of senior intelligence officials to come out and essentially say he's not under investigation and to clear him, other white house officials who are not named in the story apparently made inquiries about getting those intelligence officials to pressure comey, the fbi director and now fired to drop his investigation into michael flynn. and there's really no way to explain that away. so in the first case, trump could be a really rich guy who thinks i have this sense i'm not under investigation. why won't more people come out and say so. he shouldn't be making phone calls. it's crossing into lanes he shouldn't be in. maybe yo

it's because the private financial institutions, wall street, who manage retirement plans don't want to see any competition from city or state retirement plans. another giveaway to wealthy special interests that will hurt working americans, who should have more low-cost choices when it comes to their retirement. we all know, mr. president, our nation faces a retirement security problem. pensions, often a guarantee for large numbers of americans, are vanishing. new employers often don't provide pensions. older employers' pension plans are running low. people used to feel when they retired there would at least be something there so they could live their final years in dignity are worried, as they should be. 55 million working americans do not have a way for retirements to save through their employer. that's nearly half, half of all the private sector workers 18- 18-64. so it's a huge concern. so what did the obama administration do in its last few months? wisely, they said states could set up -- could set up initiatives for employees to save through their employers' payroll systems. the obama administration acted to allow states to pursue these initiatives by exempting th
