and that's the key point here this is the most undemocratic state in the region the most knowledgeable of all i can say wait a second can't compare them nor syria to saudi arabia in terms of. so i can compare of. course no it's not a good model really doesn't work in reality as you hear your show every year was the king kong what i mean the people here love confederacy and they tell you whatever it was really come on. this is this is a riot i mean either you don't know these countries or i what are you saying the most undemocratic states on earth is this how would you condemn the best friend of the united states of america but in terms of life for the most people they are it's not like it was in libya and doors it is in syria i am enjoying the experience and i have to be here i have to jump in here if i want to change had all the oil of the saudi kingdom of course the people would have a better quality of life in syria i mean this is nothing. you know and the fact actually if you look at the real figures of the saudi kingdom the fact that you have poverty in the saudi kingdom the spide

east and north africa who are being sold weapons quite aggressively should say who are in fact undemocratic dictatorial abusive regimes i think it was pretty world no one that these weapons were likely to be used for internal repression of course no one knew when it was likely to happen but the fact is there were buying weapons such as crowd control technology cheer gas and wall and door breaching equipment which could only be used for internal repression and signs of things the coalition government's going to backtrack indeed they've already revoked one hundred fifty six arms licenses to the region but seeing what's happening now at the moment is they're not they're a case for selling weapons to groups fighting against oppressive regimes exactly what we're seeing there in libya isn't there a justifiable argument there. well we were very close to see the international arms . it does apply to both sides and we want it to stay that way i know some people have argued that if you sold weapons to the rebels sure even ing out things but we feel it's actually putting civilians in a far greater lik

and that's the key point here this is the most undemocratic state in the region the most logical way to say wait a second can't compare them or syria to saudi arabia in terms of all come on although i don't. so you can compare of. course no it's not a democracy because i can read only as you hear your. own i mean the people here live a consideration later when you have a really really come on. this is this is a right i mean either you don't know these countries or i was saying the most undemocratic state on earth is the saudi kingdom the best friend of the united states of america but in terms of the quality of life for the people there like it was amazing and your desire really is in syria. and i have to jump in here i have to jump in here if i want to change had all the oil of the saudi kingdom of course the people would have a better quality of life in syria i mean this is nothing. you know and the fact actually if you look at the real figures of the saudi kingdom the fact that you have poverty in the saudi kingdom the spiders are huge always wealth a lot of the kind of regime tha

africa who are being sold were couldn't quite aggressively by britain i should say who are in fact undemocratic dictatorial abusive regimes i think it was pretty world know when these weapons were likely to be used for internal repression of course no one knew when it was likely to happen but the fact is they were buying weapons such as crowd control technology cheer gas and wall and door breaching equipment which could only be used for internal repression for us the most essential saying this report does is our sixth really tough question how do you reconcile promoting arms exports with staunch support for human rights well we would say in reconcilable we want to see a continuation of an arms embargo right across the entire middle east and north africa and we certainly welcome the committee's report recommendation that this should be a review of all arms sales to autoroute regimes i think it's the least they can do i was case pheromone from the campaign against the arms trade libya rattles are preparing to restart crude oil exports as the first tanker arrives in the opposition held eastern por

that's undemocratic. we need to change our electoral system.there's something wrong with a system, a party, the party has 1.3 million votes and get 50s seats in the house and green party who gets 900,000 votes, not that far behind the bloc, they get zero seats. it's time we have proportional representation in this country so we have the proper representation of everybody's point of view when it comes to that house of commons. by the way whirblingse we're at it, let's stop the undemocratic senate from doing what it does, and it should be abolished in our opinion, wasteful and expensive and repository for political france, let's get rid of it and test cat nadian people on that one. >> let me address that. >> mr. harper, hang on. have i to be even with the time here. -- i have to be even with the time here. >> the key issue is whether you can trust the politician with democratic authority. you're a prime minister that shut down parliament twice. you were twice ruled against by the speaker of the house of commons. you lost the confidence of the hou

i find that i find that really just undemocratic. it's also shocking to me that these are the same people who did not pass a budget, and that's what we're facing today. but it's amazing that they could have made such a decision and that makes it even more important as to the certification effort that every effort is made to look into morale, unit cohesion, good order, discipline, recruit, and retention, and combat readiness because members of congress, defeated ones, did not look at that and did not care. it's my view in my 31 years of service that extraordinary surveys, anonymous surveys, so that people could speak freely, are really very helpful. will there be any surveys as you're considering the certification process of members of the military? >> sir, not surveys in the context of what was performed last fall, but certainly there will be an aggregation of information through the command chains and other normal reporting mechanisms to give us the information and the situation we're in as we need to make the recommendation in our

polling shows it is skewed more undemocratic polling but also republican polling shows young voters. those of you in this room and millions like you across the country, regardless of your partisan affiliation, religious affiliation, region of country you live in, you find it ridiculous and preposterous that this is an issue we are talking about in this country. it can be used by some in some raises national or local to motivate the youth vote to get out and vote on this issue. in other races and some of those republican races being talked about regional races it can cause some young voters to stay home or vote the other way. polling shows more democrats support this issue than republicans but it is changing very quickly. among the youth vote it has quickly become an equal number. it is not there yet but quickly becoming an equal number and i do think it could take a social issue off the table and benefit the party that will take the stand. >> george will has written that his daughter and her friends find this issue to be remarkably and interesting. weekend take this in a vacuum. i ca

the winner take all two-party system in which we now live, i believe is inherently undemocratic. pose the first question, do you believe we should have a multiparty proportional representation system to express more views of the electorate, since we have a wider racial ethnic electorate? >> wait, hold on. that's fascinating. so you think they should have like a black party, a latino party? >> not at all. much like the republic of south africa. you have representation. everyone who is running as a patient has to gain 5% get on to the ballot. once you are on the ba lot, you receive 13% of the electorate. then you receive 13% of the seats in parliament. as opposed to winner take all. look at the last midterm elections. >> are you think in terms of race? >> 50 some percent of the mid terms, but 100% of the chairmanship. >> are you thinking in terms of changing the american structure to be based on racial location? >> no. no. multiparty that you can reflect more of the electorate, which we now have more varying views. so, one, eviscerate the two-party system, first question. second qu

it's a very undemocratic approach. but as i said, the procedure is just part of the problem.l question is, how are we going to address costs in medicare? now, we're going to see some very innovative ideas from the house of representatives, from the budget chairman, paul ryan, this week when the house budget is released and he tackles the tough problem of helping to constrain the costs of medicare. one of the ways that i find very unappealing to control medicare costs is by putting a cap on how much we can spend and by reimbursing the providers, in particular physicians, with that particular cap in mind. and as i said, the reason is because physicians -- it's going to cost physicians a certain amount of money to take care of each patient, and if they cannot be reimbursed in an amount sufficient to cover their expenses and a little bit more, they're simply going to turn to other kinds of patients. they've already turned away from medicaid patients because medicaid does not reimburse at a level that meets their requirements, and as a result, i mean, it is a dirty little secret i
