Judge Andrew Napolitano with us star of bravo middle listing San Francisco is here and o former education secretary fox news krasht bill bennett joins us gm ceo joining us this morning you dont want to miss a moment, stay with us, for a big show, ahead we kick it off with jobs back to america. President elect donald trump not yet in office but companies are getting in line, already responding to hows border tax threat for overseas production Fiat Chrysler says it will reportedly spend one buildings in update factories in ohio and michigan critics 2000 new jobs, last night General Motors ceo comments on possibility of tariffs yesterday i i smoke with Larry Summers weighed in as well. I think away to a early to speculate a lot of work to do we look at some of the things the president elect has said we have much more in common than we have different and i very much look forward, to being part of the solution that allows the company the kin to be strengthened with business along with manufacturing capability. Every business, deciding whether to locate in ohio or mexico, is finding mexico 20 cheaper, that is a huge tilt away from the from the United States. President ial candidate term from ohio congressman and fox news contribute dennis kucinich, good to is he you thanks for joining us. Good morning thanks, maria. Maria lets kick it off with jobs congressman, your reaction to fiat investment plans right now one more in a line of companies, that says look we want to produce in america given incoming policies, just last week ford announced would stop binged this is great news we need to get American Economy going. And yet congressman walch, the trade part of the economic plan is what has some people unnerved saying look, you know we dont want to make it so contentious, and perhaps even threaten companies how do you see it . I think trumps applying a little bit of a carrotandstick here but maria, look, i think it is a new day after 8 years of Companies Big and small in this country feeling like they are taxed regulated to death when you are seeing since trump got elected Companies Big and small getting on america again, betting on a a friend leeer environment when it comes to regulations and taxes goods for everybody i think going to continue and i think you will see more of the carrot than the stick. Maria do you think we will see increasingly companies say, look, it might be cheaper in mexico but it is politically correct in u. S. Border tax is too onerous . I think you are going to see companies realizing that tra along with the Republican Congress i think with some democrat help making it less expensive to do business here. Look, the bottom line maria is, people leave because it is too damn expensive here trump and republicans are talking about tax reform lowering taxes getting rid of some of these suffocating regulations, that barack obama and the democrats have been responsible for the last 8 easier. Maria right, lets, lets face it, congressman that is why the market is where it is. That is why we are sitting on dow 20,000 right now, look, i want to look ahead. Engineered the finish community could end up being a suckers market but let me just say that it is good to have a president who has trade policies that emphasize keeping jobs in america bringing jobs to america if you really want to reduce cost of making cars, we should have a National Health care plan and then the government takes some burden off industries that way, that would be a tremendous break for the Auto Industry, because canada has advantage over u. S. Because they have a a environmental regulation we have serious environmental problems that are looming. I want to talk about that, because the work begins this week an important week weve got Senate Confirmation hearings for trump cabinet picks that is slated this week republicans bracing themselves for roadblocks listen to this i got to get your reaction. The left will try to go after sessions a little bit but try to go after tillerson but as on balance i think mcconnells range paralyze so many hearings at the same time almost impossible to vote solid drama most will go through totally unscathed. All procedural complaints, relate to frustration not only lost white house but having lost senate i understand in a we need to sort of grow up here get past that we need to have the president s incredible Security Team in place, on day one.

This is the most well attended Investor Conference of any conference, there is a lot of investors here, private equity, Health Care Executives looking for deals, financing, of course, key topic for attending how will financing of health care deals fare in 2017 a leader in the business john martin with us, coceo of an tar as capital thanks for joining us. How what do you see right now in terms of health care deals . The health care m a landscape robust throughout 2016 early figures 2017 we see a robust pipeline of activity continuing. So i am i am looking at wires something just crossing we have a deal happening right now as we are sitting here, United Health acquiring surgical carry affiliates 57 a share creating a comprehensive ambulatory Care Services platform including primary care this is ambulatory business are there sects within health care busiest of that hours. Across the spectrum there is significant activity both in providers, suppliers, manufacturing, there are businesses really focused on middle Market Companies so we deal a tremendous amount with service providers, in that space, medical Device Manufacturers component manufacturers that service larger medical device companies. For a long time, you know, i am looking at the detail flow, and i assumed well when you cant see organic growth you acquire growth. And that was one of the issues for the economy, in general. Right. Part of the reason so many deals in 2015, of course, a record year why so much activity term of mergers in middle mark. Organic growth more difficult to come by in economy we have been operating in, across our portfolio middle mark borrow oers topline growth on average 9 last year almost four times what you saw in s p 500 companies. I think that job Revenue Growth both organic and through acquisition is the way a lot of investors are looking for. Obviously we are waiting on Donald Trumps economic ambulance, to really materialize take scomak what are you expecting from legislator taxes from a rollback in the regulatory environment. I think the agenda from everything you hear about it going to be very pro business. You know lower Corporate Tax rates, seems high on agenda.

That should spur meaningful investment by companies whether in capital goods, or Broader Service providing. Youve got 17 billion dollars assets under management how do you alow kate xa will.
