bleak? at the moment, yes. the incomes of people in the middle haven t risen for ten years and in our most recent elections we had the rise of a party called the uk independent party who came top of the poll in the european elections and anti-europe and anti-trade and reactiona reactionary. i think we have to show people we will not get on that road and but if you simply stand back and go for the free market approach that is not working either. what are the policies which allow us to stay ahead of the game? the self-esteem of the brits today, is it at a low? i think it s recovering after the financial global crisis but what people say all the time, well, look. finally the economy may be growing but things aren t improving for me or for our family or or community, why can t we share in this and why are we left out? sf y if you leave people feeling
fact we had social security, that we had federal bank insuran insurance. and now the necessity of health care is something that people are going to be able to count on. we are seeing the, by the way, free market approach to health care because you see insurers as a matter of competition in the free market choosing to come in, bringing in competitive plans with competitive benefits at competitive prices. why? not because it s a matter of ideology. because it s what people want to buy. indeed. just to wrap up, as an administrator, somebody who deals with the health care system directly, what do you think how do you think the affordable care act will obviously change? it s going to to be as social security did, as medicare did. what changes do you see on the horizon or do you think would help to make the law better? first of all, the mechanical problems will gradually be worked out. all the things about the website, which are still a work
plan. let s play. that did he issue a challenge to republicans today. i ve always. i will work with anybody to implement and improve this law effectively. you got good ideas? bring them to me. let s go. but we re not repealing it as long as i m president. so you presented a different health care proposal four years ago. do you have a proposal to improve the law that exists right now? it is a totally different concept. if the president wanted to take us if he took us up on our offer. i m speaking totally out of turn here. if they want to take our bill and endorse and it pass it, you have two separate health care plans out there. you have obama care and this free market approach that i would like to try and many republican wos like to try. it is a free market approach. i went on the website. i tried to pick the plan as
loved his country and wanted us to aspire to do more. one of the things we re working on is eradicating poverty in our country. for me it is a free market approach. there is a way for us to encourage people toward earning successful talk about education reform that gets to a place where kids that grew up in neighborhoods like i grew up in believe in the future and believe this country, this day can change the entire rest of the their lives. in ten seconds, what are your thoughts? i grew up with, i had action figures, i jamd them jfk and rfk and mlk. my parents were such big supporters of the kings. i want to thank both of you for being here. it means so much to have out a day like today. if you want to be part of this conversation, you can to go facebook or twitter. you can weigh in on our fire back question. which president will history
but as some one who has tried to buy insurance in the individual market place for many years, it is incredibly hard to compare anything with anything. you are looking at variable throughs out. having informed consumers is surely the most free market approach you can get. will they accept this explanation, i don t think so. robert reich, richard wolf. thank you beth for joining me tonight. thank you. thank you. coming up, told cruz is backing down. he really is. there is big news about ted cruz from a private meeting of republican senators today. and in tonight s episode of campaigning versus governing, no one, no one oversimplifies on the campaign trail more than chris christie. and kathleen sebelius, the wizard of oz, and bill o reilly are together in tonight s rewrite. as a business owner, i m constantly putting out fires. so i deserve a small business credit card
