david siegel -- well, he knows about construction. he built the time-share empire westgate resorts from scratch, starting with 16 villas in an orange grove outside of orlando and growing into the largest privately owned time-share company in the world. but in 2004, david and his wife, jackie, took on a completely different construction project, building a dream home that would end up being the largest in america. 12 years later, it is still a work in progress. the 90,000-square-foot house was set to contain 13 bedrooms, 30 bathrooms, a bowling alley, indoor swimming pool -- guess what? -- a 20-car garage. the sprawling estate was about 60% completed when the economy crashed back in '08, almost taking all of westgate and all of siegel's fortunes with it. david and jackie were forced to stop all construction on versailles and eventually list a half-built mansion for sale with a price tag of $100 million. the entire ordeal became part of the documentary "the queen of versailles." but the economy improved, westgate resorts came back, and,

siegel said that and lazear, a number of voices have said that. the market is the best forward looking indicator out there and yet that is not a data point officially that the fed looks at in its mandate. >> it should be. >> i think that there's a lot of information to be gleaned from the markets, absolutely, millions of profit maximizing investors out there tend to get the story right a lot better than us economists, i will give you that, however, i think you also have to look at both sides of this. when the equity market has running up and financial conditions were off the charts over the last couple of years, we did not see the fed say, oh, my, look at the blow off conditions that are -- the equity market is signaling, we can't just go gradually, we need to step up the pace. i mean, if they were truly looking at the markets in the last couple of years they would not have only increased once a quarter even though they were well behind the curve. so there's a little bit of a two-way thing here you know, be careful what you wish for if the fed is

siegel. what happened here? >> first of all good rx, says survey of 36% of americans are reporting increase in the drug prices. first thing that is happening, yes, some of the drugmakers who were shamed by president trump not raising their prices are now doing so. according to the reuters report, 30 are doing so but the real he had line here, connell, they are still giving rebates about, but rebates are going into pockets of middle managers, pharmacy benefit managers, insurance companies are negotiating prices with drugmakers are getting discounts but they're not yet being passed along to the consumer. connell: doesn't hurt the consumer necessarily? >> it is hurting the consumer. >> discount is not being passed along. >> the discount is not passed along to the consumer that is the concern. connell: why not? what is behind that? will it change? >> hopefully it will change hhs has new rules say you can't soak up profits. you can't hide it. we'll see price transparency, more rebates going to the

siegel, do you share that view? >> i do. and i would also add, the imf focuses on macroeconomic issues, as opposed to development issues. but the imf has also thought about climate and climate change as macroeconomic issues. and we see there are real impacts from climate change. so yes, i do agree. >> ms. lee? >> yes, absolutely. and i also think that the wto could play a more constructive role, with respect to climate change to allow countries that go first and go faster to implement carbon, by reducing strategies, aren't put at a competitive disadvantage to trade, by allowing border methods to adjust at the border for the difference in prices between countries that are moving quickly. and countries that are moving more slowly. >> ms. hillman? >> yes. i totally agree. and i would only add that i do think i would agree with ms. lee that there is more that the wto can do to both reduce all tariffs on anything that would contribute in terms of renewable energy, types of goods. there's been a long-standing fight over exactly wh

siegel. j i think it is great they're meeting with him and heart is in the right place and head of fda the problem is that may not necessarily solve the problem. it is a huge epidemic going on charles. 78% increase of e-cigs since last year alone 2 million teens using e-cigs, including joule which is the one that look like it is plugging into a computer over 70% of the market and another 2 million using it marijuana for vaping marijuana so this is enormous problem one thing that fda did that had i like is they got them to take flavored e-cig like bubblegum and cucumber out of the store and men menthol and mint that worries me. >> reading between lines reason for this meeting that manufactures particularly since jewel is acquired is gigantic acquisition getting the muscle of mainstream cigarette makers they continue to push products they're not doing bubblegum stuff but telling fda push out products you don't want to you have to take us to court. >> here's why they get away with this 60% of th

siegel, whats adam is your interpretation of this? adam: i think we are likely to see a very temporary change of china's description of the policies and not a real change in actual policy. as you mentioned at the top, china wants to move up the value chain and wants to be a technology leader, and it is not easily going to give up those goals. emily: what does this actually mean? beijing is ahat master at rolling out plans. not always as good at executing them. and really good at saying they are suspending problematic regulations, often to have them creep back in in other forms. we have seen them time and time again. i don't see why this would be any different, we think that china's technological ambitions. why would they get off that course? emily: gary locke was on earlier today saying something similar. take a listen to what he had to say. don't think the chinese back away from their overall plan of one to be world-class leaders. so much of what they use now comes almost exclusively from the united states. when the obama and even th

dr siegel at nearby is a non resident fellow at the gulf international forum he says the event he mission is a welcome development. we know that this push which is spearheaded by a u.n. envoy has been going on for at least a couple weeks or mom's house hosted a u.n. envoy who has shuttle between washington moscow riyadh and saw to try to get this peace set off before peace talks assume so the fact that that were even discussing these issues which previously was off limits in itself a diplomatic victory we should always have cautious optimism because i think that the first results that we would we would have to look at is whether or not these peace talks take place and whether or not they will be aboard at the last minute that's the first aspect to secular aspect is if they do indeed take place we will expect some sort of resolution between the who thesis and the united nations and the saudis over whether to un will take over to management of the port there who died to help bring in humanitarian supplies into yemen so that is if that is achieved than they arrested a peace process will be i

marc siegel joins us live screen right. dr. siegel, let's start with you. when the republicans stripped out the mandate there was no penalty declaring it unconstitutional. >> something to that because chief justice roberts only voted for this because he was able to maneuver it so it was a tax. now congress has gotten rid of the tax and the mandate stands and it looks more like the penalty it was. of course, there is nothing to collect but that makes it appear unconstitutional. now, the supreme court, which may actually end up seeing this case, steve, may use servability to say it can stand alone. this one size fits all obamacare which is incredibly expensive and has to be subsidized up the wazoo is unpopular. now is an opportunity whatever the supreme court decides, if it gets there, for people to debate this and fix a turkey. it's really a turkey. steve: you haven't liked it since the get-go. republicans are going to take away your healthcare, now the democrats are going to have to work with the republicans and come up with something, right? >> that's abso

marc siegel is here. sounds wonderful. is it real? >> yes. now usually we have a biology lesson here today i'll give you a chemistry they looked at 200 cancer sample under microscope here's what they did they found out that genetic material dna does something that adds a methyl group a chemical experimental group but cancer does it differently. cancer does it in clusters so areas where -- where there's a lot of growth going on cancer is busy doing this. and you know what that explains why cancer cells grow so much. but here's the secret they bound it to gold stuart to gold, the element of gold and they found out they could tell the difference between cancer and noncancer. 98% of the time. this is very, very promising for a universal blood test for cancer preliminary i believe it i did a lot of reading on it it was in a very, very prominent journal called nature. >> don't we all have cancer cells in our body? right from the get-go virtually isn't that true? >> immune system is constantly screening out tumor cells ever day but discover it -- >>
