Table. thats one hoff the tools that is available. my preference -- i know the reference of the emergency manager, kevyn orr, is to get people around the table and negotiate this out. everyone knows there needs to be vetter solutions shep solution is to grow the city and begin biz better services, short-term cash management, long-term liability repayment plan that works. and instead of people arguing about the past -- >> neil: obviously youre a very smart negotiator, you know when youre saying t...

Say theres no disagreement. people do disagree over this, and thats the problem that washington hat right now. everyone says we have to cut, we have to cut. thats the problem with the murray budget. it goes way too far toward the republicans. if unfortunate the sharp debate that schumer is talking about, debate the progressive budget, which actually adds spending and stimulus against the ryan plan. >> we havent cut spending, have we? seriously. can we at least try that and see whether or not all...

No new taxes. it lowers the top marginal tax ralt to 25% and offsets the costs by closing loopholes that mr. ryan will make at a later date. earlier this morning the republicans touted the benefits of this plan. >> the reason were balancing our budget is it is a necessary means to an end which improves peoples lives. >> which budget helps those in need? our budget provide as prescription to save the social safety nets. >> so which future do you pick? growth or more tax and spend? >> despite this...

Apparently its -- i mean, nobody has much record for it from who is residing in the white house. >> i think its a key responsibility of any elected official first to do a budget. >> greta: i dont disagree with you. >> i think he avoids it for political reasons, hes waiting until the house does theirs and passes it. the only reason the senate democrats are doing it now because we passed no budget no pay. and what did pelosi say about it? she disagreed with it. she didnt think it was dignified. i ...
