Lessons reagan would have taught us today. This program took place in santa barbara, california. The good news is before we start talking, we have another one of those videos. This one is about the private sector and how reagan speech is still applicable today. You can share these videos on campus with your friends and put them on facebook. Roll it. If you have a business, you did not build that. You did not get there on your own. The full power of centralized government, this was the very thing the Founding Fathers thought to minimize. A government cannot control the economy without controlling people. They know when a government sets out to do that, it must use force and coercion to achieve its purpose. Took this land by eminent domain. We will give you the price. But we will not make an offer. Tenures later, the land is a pile of rubble. It bears repeating, if you like your health care plan, you can keep it. Are we looking at the first billiondollar website in history . They also kn
That said we really want to take a chunk of the i]budget, go over it and see whether we could do ataq things more effectively whether we could do emphasize some priorities better. I dont think you could do the owhole budget. You certainly couldnt do it every other year. ut you could set up a mechanism the budget say every three years or five years to see if the money could be spent better and the priorities were what congress reallyco wanted them to be. Bob . Can i just ask you a quick question . So is what alice describes on the domestic side, is the military really any different . Isnt there a certain amount of the air force, the navy, the marines, everybody has to get their share of the cuts . Broadly, the budget shares havent changed a lot. Thats a fair statement. Within those shares theyve changed a lot. Let me try to respond. First off i think its way too harsh that suggest that ovq all only 1 of Government Spending has any effect. I will offer just a couple examples. One obvious
Partnerships to address a broad range of global challenges, building cyber space capability and confronting uncertainty with agility and innovation. This is a particularly difficult job today as we see a resurgent russia, and rising china, challenging us with Nuclear Capabilities, space and cyber space, as well as countries like north korea and iran, seeking greater roles in these domains, proliferation of technology, and information has increased risks, posed by nonstate actors in many of these areas, as well. In short, Strategic Deterrence may be more challenging today than it has ever been. This is why we at the Atlantic Council have been tackling many of these issues head on, including our work in russia, particularly our transatlantic Security Work as we chart a path for a europe, whole and free. Likewise we have been doing extensive programming on Cyber Security and cyber state craft initiative. Ranging from natos Cyber Mission to the recent cyberattack on sony. Our initiative an
Actually say in the beer distributors pockets. It was public money that was supposed to go to promoting recycling but was instead winding up in the distributors pockets just because of an error in the way the law was constructed. They were very active in political campaigns and that loophole of what we knew about it for years and years and years was not corrected. My first term in the legislature in 2009 was the first year the legislature was publicly financed. I cant point to a direct correlation. But i think it was about two weeks after we were sworn in that we came in and corrected that loophole and those funds are returned to the public. And so thats a clear example of a special interest that had been able, to no pun intended, bottle up legislation. If you look at connecticuts record, particularly the last four years under governor malloy, weve really been a shining light for those of us in the Progressive Movement as a place where we can see policies that are folks elsewhere can o
