i know wilber ross.ok at the tax plan that wilber helped put together for donald trump, most economists that you speak to out there, including those who advise ronald reagan, say this tax cut plan doesn't make sense. the amount of deficit that's going to be increased, it simply is want going to be matched with growth. the math doesn't make sense. >> i'm glad you raised that too because the big project wilber and i have worked on is to score the economic plan of which taxes are only a part. and if you, for example, if you take the tax foundation, nonpartisan tax foundation, it calculated that the tax cuts would reduce revenues over a ten-year period by $2.6 trillion. when wilber and i looked at the positive effects of growth from eliminating our deficit, from reducing our $2 trillion regulatory burden, from unleashing our energy sector, we calculated a 2.4 positive offset. so the problem here, stephanie, you can go to every single one of these organizations that are scoring the plans of clinton v. trump a

what's new is that his advisers, peter navarro and wilber ross, outlined how the fund they're proposing would actually work. essentially they're saying private investors would put up $167 billion and the rest would be borrowed money. and the money would be repaid by the revenue streams from projects that they would be building. >> so john, how does this proposal compare with hillary clinton's? >> reporter: well, it's twice as big as hillary clinton's. she's got a $500 billion infrastructure proposal. a bunch of that, more than half of it would be direct public spending. but hillary clinton would also create a similar private fund, an infrastructure bank with $25 billion, to also try to leverage private investment. one of the key differences is donald trump's program would apply to programs with dedicated revenue streams, user fees on the people who consume it. hillary clinton's does not have that restriction, therefore it would be generally available infrastructure. some people might object to the privatization component in donald trump's plan. >> given how close we are to this election

you have wilber ross.th home depot, and there are an array of people who are very prominent business leaders on the list and i encourage people to read it and we intentionally included small business leaders and small business ceos and leaders, because they are the ones that are dependant on gpd growth to see their businesses doing better, and these others may want to influence how much the government regulates them, but small businesses are the ones who are affected by gdp and they are the ones that create jobs and can lead us out of this nonrecovery recovery. >> so not all racist on the list. >> deplorables. >> thanks, joe. >>> coming up, when we return pepsico's ceo speaking out on innovati innovation. and this is the anniversary of the "halftime report." it all starts today at noon. what do you got to offer us today? ♪balance transfer that's my game♪ bank you never heard of, that's my name♪ haa! thank you. uh, next. watch me make your interest rate... disappear. there's gotta be a better way to find th
