we have huge unemployment, a lot of underutilized capacity in this country.exactly the wrong time to embrace austerity economics. ali, if i can just make one more point. that is one thing that really worries me about this current agreement as it is being structured is it doesn't deal with the debt ceiling. there is no agreement on the debt ceiling, which means you're going to have beginning next week or even sooner, republicans and democrats engaged in the same sort of trench warfare we've had for years over raising the dents. and that debt ceiling. without an agreement, we're back to square zero. >> we agree on that point. great to see you both. thanks for staying up with us and happy new year to both of you. hope we don't have to talk again tonight. >> one of the main stumbling blocks in the fiscal cliff negotiations was that no-tax pledge most republicans signed when they took office. the man behind the pledge, grover norquist, is here. we'll take you, by the way, we'll talk to him and take you to times square for a preview of tonight's festivities. there'

he took assets which were underutilized in terms of land and human capital and find a way to utilize them, and that's the inspiration for the kinds of things we're talking about. how do we leverage what we have some which is so many great assets to have another generation of american economic leadership. >> host: how ubiquitous is broadband in the u.s. right now. >> guest: we found that by a current definition -- it's always a moving target -- there's seven million homes which represent 5% of the american homes without access. we can actually solve 80% of that problem relatively easily with kind of -- there are some changes, the fcc made changes that are going to accelerate that. that doesn't solve a couple of problems. number one, doesn't solve how to have lead economic lead leadership. we can't sit on our laurels. so how do we have a constantly improving ecosystem and there are ideas in the book. i also think in the long run those won't be fast enough. so one of the things we propose in the book, kind of a race to the top for technologies that we use the asset that rural has, which
