The show starts right now. Neil welcome, everyone, i am neil cavuto. Where were you two years ago this very night . Okay, we knew this would be bad, now we are discovering how bad. Including anywhere from 40 to 60 million americans, we are talking about 13foot surges along the new jersey coast, we have seen the the New York Stock Exchange indicating tomorrow no more trading there. Back to back days we have never seen Something Like this caused by Mother Nature in the better part of a century. Neil thats something that most of us will not forget in these parts. And how could they . There are still homeless and feeling helpless and over is something that some believe is clueless. Theyre wondering what happened to that 60 billion that lawmakers were in such a rush. And two years later, nowhere to be found. Theyre wondering why why they are being bogged down in the government is giving them the runaround. Staten island people filling out paperwork up to seven times partly because the government was losing the paperwork every time. And only 800 homes are now under construction, just over 8000 reimbursement checks have been issued. That hardly seems like a government on top of it and no wonder so many are flat out tired of it. Two years after the fact tonight, a look at whether the government can handle this. A government so intent on getting americans lives, all but a morning americans when they desperately do. We have our fox business allstars tracy byrnes and liz macdonald. So lets begin with you. Two years, and the weight is on. There were a lot a lot of over promises, but the the thing most troubling to me is the 15. 2 billion that was allocated to hide, only 1. 57 billion with the now two years later. And its sort of trapped in that bureaucracy or red tape. The government is supposed to do a couple of things and one of them is to help people in Disaster Relief scenarios. You know that i am sore at the governor of new jersey for a number of reasons and one is that he got to the beach, he said that it was necessary to get to the beach, he prayed and hugged president obama three days before the election, the president ial election. And it was just not team playing. So if youre going to do anything right for these people that are suffering, lets bring the team together. He created all of these roles and regulations and there are still homes down there and there are still Vacant Properties and homes that need to be not down. Its such a mad rush. And speaking of governor Chris Christie, he called out Speaker Boehner and he wanted to make sure that the money would get to the right issue not be spent on other things and nevertheless there it still sits. Again, we saw a lot of headlines with politicians saying yes, were going to fix this issue, but look at the Associated Press polls, only 22 feel that they have even recovered and they are saying that they are fighting against us, people say we shouldnt live in a flood zone and theres a lot of Economic Growth and activity in these communities. Neil they never say that in the hamptons. Thats right, but this is what happened. They tripled the number of buildings considered in the flood zone, so these people may not know that they need to get Flood Insurance. 85,000 buildings are considered in flood zones. Thats the other thing that they cant get Flood Insurance and no one wants to insure them. Neil we expect the government to do this. And we hope to make sense. Jacqueline onassis said that her two weeks peopledistended upon her with sympathy and well wishes and then after that it was a dead zone and that is what happens with politicians. They rush in there, they want the photo op, they want to have that up at the moment, but this is a bad execution. Neil they were all kind of grimace see that the politicians, slapping themselves on the back, telling them they were doing a good job. No one one thing they did, they went in for the photo shoot. As of january in new jersey, they are still doing this and i hate to keep picking on him. What Chris Christie is doing and what the governor of new york is doing, here is what they are doing, they are doing infrastructure to build levees and barriers because they do feel that the oceans are going to rise some of the thats not helping the devastated housing in these communities. You can ask governor romney and others come you can ask scott walker. At the end of the day, it was about him, he got to the beach, self congratulated himself. He said his mom and dad would be super happy to have him jostling around with the president. Its two years later and we have an incomplete project and theres been no execution. Im a republican and so i just broke Ronald Reagans 13 amendment or whatever it was about this. [laughter] neil i remember schumer and others all claiming that they were on top of this and then you had all of these federal officials saying everything was hunkydory. They were not doing the job that they were elected for her. What they shouldve done his protect the American People against disasters like this. President obama to governor christie to the governor of new york to the mayor. Trying to build up infrastructure. But the fact that they are not giving these people the help that they need is a disgrace. A good politician would be accountable. They would say we are going to do it right. Until the last time you heard a politician say that i made a mistake two i got this wrong and it wasnt handled right. You just dont hear that. Youre the first one that knows about the political process. Chris christie doesnt have time for all of this little stuff anymore, and that is what happens with every single politician. They get their photo op in the moveon. A prematurely jumped on something that they didnt is a trend. When they are unified in trying to address the problem, thats not the same as solving it. Anger management clash number one. It was devastating and the 11 towns that ended up in a garbage dump. It was unbelievably heartbreaking with these families went through. Neil that was then and the government keeps having this issue. Governor cuomo and what about people like allison who was just telling me that she was out of her home two years to the day. They have our paperwork and a receipt. Neil that was one of the things that governor Chris Christie said that they would help you with. No, none of that. Its all bureaucracy and red tape. Im paying Flood Insurance on the house that im not living in. Neil something is not jiving that everything is hunky dory. The republican challenger right now. What do you think of what the governor said . Governor Chris Christie remapped saying that things are a lot better and its proof that we did the job right . I dont know how he is taking it to the lab around new york state when at the same time we have thousands of people out of their homes, i met with people for the last year, ive had a lot of People Volunteer for this campaign who are out of their homes because of Hurricane Sandy and because they are very frustrated with what is going on. You have the bureaucracy of new yorks date in new york city and the federal government, all of which has bungled this problem. We have people getting multiple applications and in the case worker leaves, they cant get an answer from anyone. One woman came up to me and said, what happens with all of the loans i had to take out before i get this and the interest im paying . She loses that. She was promised for money a year ago and hasnt received it. I was at a house the other day that was built put on sticks, everything was done to code and then all of a sudden they said no good and nobody told them to do that. Neil the rules seem to be changing with state officials and what have you. You know Governor Cuomo on this subject. He was talking about this. And he said that things are fine. What about the criticism from your opponents who said you actually diverted Hurricane Sandy relief money to put towards tv ads . We will put that in the category of more political baloney trades that you didnt not. His for tv ads . We ran ads with what the affected community afterwards which was commercials to spur [inaudible] in the areas that were affected. Neil it sounds like advertisements. And i dont think people have thought that that money would be used for this. It took 37 million, he took it from this that was used for hurricane relief, thousands still out, and he put it on the start of new york adds, claiming that businesses back, everything is back to the numbers came out and new yorks growth was 0. 7 . And that is one of the worst in the United States. Businesses are leaving, people are leaving, the point i put out to cut taxes in new york and to spur the economy is with the wall street journal said was bold. Neil even popular president ial candidates campaigning for you and with you, but not Chris Christie. He keeps appearing with Governor Cuomo and as head of the National Governors association, he hasnt really helped you out and hes been very dismissed it. Are you angry . Im not angry. He was one of 900 people that bought a book. Thats a joke. But im proud of the endorsements in the help i have gotten. Neil scott walker kind of feels bad he, too, feels that has sort of shoved him aside and not given him due respect. Way we get around this republicans is to donate money and hes not. Neil are you bitter about it . Im not bitter about it but i think its a bad miss it because work on a close this race and win this on tuesday. Neil how would your relationship be then . It would be interesting. But im not bitter at all because we are going to win this race with or without him. Neil i think that you are, because every right to be. We are going to prove that we can win without Chris Christie. Neil okay, he is the hardcharging root gubernatorial candidate of new york. I think you might want to take a look at the poll numbers. I dont think they are quite the same. In the meantime, get ready for the rumble after the runaway right after this. Iprise asked p a simple question in retirement, will you outlive your money . Uhhh. No, that cant happen. Thats the thing, you dont know how long it has to last. Everyone has retirement questions. So ameriprise created the exclusive. Confident retirement approach.

Liberty mutual insurance. Neil publicans are betting that after taking the senate, they will show democrats a thing or two about how to get the job done. To the actor that says its a nice script, is a not a very convincing one. Republicans plan to change their image and prove that they dont always have to be the bad guys in the eyes of the media. Robert, its good to have you. For having me. Neil you youre very good at crafting the image come you can be a bad guy or a nice guy. But republicans have that image of being the party that constantly just rejects everything that the democrats put on the table and the compliant media just these that. Should they gain power . First of all, since i was growing up, the gop was always perceived as for the wealthy people. And thats the pert and transfers perception about 95 of the stars are on the left. About 95 of the below the line people and you dont hear that. And gop, the average joe, i was recently to iowa and other places, and in coffee shops i hear about how discontented they are with the current administration. And yet those people that may have voted for president obama nationally are undecided and for some reason the gop is not able to bring a message to the every man. Neil youve been able to thrive in exceed in hollywood and yet stand out like a source. And so obviously it hasnt hurt your career, you argued with me in the past. I disagree. I want to get back to this notion of whether that community for them, that they are also disenchanted that they but they cant go all the way to say, okay, we are republican now, more conservative now, would you be disappointed in hoping that hillary does better when someone else does better. I handicap at it they are still on the left and progressive. But for the most part in terms of those other things, they dont see that the failed policies are destroying america. But i blame the gop for lack of vision and imagination and passion and neil you are right about that. They are very good at shouting out how bad the president is. But when i talked to the senate leaders, including Mitch Mcconnell yesterday, they argue that they have not been given the chance and just watch what they will do when they were given that chance. I say that that is the same old bs and i respect all of these gentlemen, but my problem is that, where is the passion and the vision . It starts now with the vision. It doesnt start after the election. If we are so split in the country in this election is so close and im seeing some of the polls that they are neck and neck, they should be we out in front. Lets take energy. Take the conversation about energy. Okay, kids in school are taught about alternative energy from kindergarten. They are taught about green energy. So we have generations of children that believe in Climate Change and solar power and alternative forms of energy. There might be some truth to that. But what i do believe is that there is alternative energy out there and stuff that we havent even exposed at that someday energy might be free for everyone. In the meantime, you have Mitch Mcconnell in kentucky, the coal miners are suffering there because of the regulations on that. So how does the gop, while at the same time appealing to the youth, send a message that we are not stuck here, we believe that there are alternative energy means. Neil that is when they have to say we are all in on all energy but not at the extent of fossil fuels. Among the cast of characters, who impresses you . Who are those candidates appeal to you . I havent felt it yet. You know, you talked about it earlier, you talked about what happened with the hurricane in new york. My frustration at that time was that i had said send them to new york and new jersey and handing out water bottles, saying that he wants to have the biggest private and public endeavor to rebuild the infrastructure of america. Because of you are going to pretend or you want to be elected president , act like the president. There is a guy that i dont hear any of the gop or anyone talking about whos the new president of egypt. Do you know what he did to the suez canal . He wants to widen the suez canal. He created an ipo that only egyptians could invest in and he raised a billion dollars in his country, private funds to rebuild the suez canal. And he is a guy that is against radical islam. And he gave a big speech that he had more people outside then president obama speech. Neil i remember well. And robert, what do you mean . Its hard to say, right now i dont see anyone that is exciting to me. Interesting. We will watch closely. You tell it like it is. In the meanwhile, we keep in the meanwhile, we keep hearing that ebol tigers, both of you. Tigers . Dont be modest. I see how youve been investing. Setting long term goals. Diversifying. Dip you got our attention. We did . Of course. Youre type e well, i have been researching retirement strategies. Well thats what type e s do. Welcome home. Taking control of your retirement . E trade gives you the tools and resources to get it right. Are you type e . Neil well, if you think we here in the u. S. You might want to think again. An internal state department discusses the possibility of bringing noncitizens with ebola to the United States for treatment. Now the state department is denying said memo zero. Lets go to the fox biz allstars on how the thought of it is. It could be huge. Tracy, what happens . We dont know what happens. Thats the whole point. Neil, we dont know the effect of this disease neil we know every person who has come here its mushroomed into bigger than we can deal with. The notion that we would bring people people here when we dont know how too to deal with it is ridiculous. Theres so much red tape theyll have to go through. For the american psyche, no, bad idea. Neil let alone there are thousands who have ebola. Were mixing politics with medicine. Remember what matt lawyer said to the governor. Is it science, or politics. Its politics. Neil we dont watch nbc. By the way, neither should you. I dont watch nbc, but you guys showed the tape on fox. Neil touche. You dont want to do anything to upset their Political Base going into the midterm elections. They already have this very big fear theres going to be lower voter turn out for the base. Neil i love you to death, you think theres a pitch to bring ebola victims to hear and that will help the vote. Really . Not shutting down the flights does help the vote. I think that not shutting i dont know. Well disagree with it, but im coming with game neil you can wager away. S
