by then. jill could not be here because she is teaching all day and she doesn't skip class even for the president of the united states. (laughter) quit remarks on the top and then i will open up for questions. it gives me a chance to get outta the media and berman of washington and hear directly from voters, having a conversation with them some grateful you took the time. last week i laid out a plan to get america's finances in order. it was a plan for prosperity, through shared sacrifice. and shared responsibility, so before take questions on a talk about the plan briefly. it goes to the heart of what is happening at this campus, and

schools like it all across america. my plan is too big things, first big cut spending and it brings down the deficit. we all know how long portion that is, like any student on a tight budget and i assume there are few here. but see a show of hands any students on a tight budget? (laughter) i've been airport just like yobeen there. just liu america has to live within its means. for long time washington acted like deficit didn't matter. a lot of folks promised a free lunch. i think everybody needs to recall we had a surplus back in 2000. 11 short years ago, but then we cut taxes

for everybody including millionaires and billionaires, fought two wars, created a new and expensive prescription drug program and we didn't pay for any of it. as the saying goes there is no such thing as a free lunch. we were left with a big deficit, as i was coming into office, and then the worst recession since the great depression. that made it worse because of a recession to things happen, the federal government helps those states, localities to prevent teacher layoffs, firefighters and police officers from being laid off. all of that cost money. fe requires more money to provide additional help to people who love lost their jobs, or in danger to losing their homes if your federal government put more money out,

because of the recession it is taking less money in, in tax revenues. that grew the deficit further. >> mark: president barack obama in virginia pushing his plan for next year's federal budget as they grapple with the 14 trillion dollar deficit closing four trillion of that is the budget plan over 10 years. we will be right back.

>> justine: let's go back live to president barack obama and talking about the vision for bringing down the deficit. >> i want new solar panels and fuel-efficient cars, advanced batteries all to be made in the united states of america. (applause & cheering) i want us to invent them here. (applause & cheering) let's just take energy as an example. folks are route they're dealing with gas, $4 a gallon. it's just another part ship, another burden at a time when we are just coming out of recession, things are tight for folks. whenever this happens just like clockwork you will see

politicians going in front of the cameras saying if they have a three. planning for $2 a gallon gas there truth is the only real solution to helping families at the pump. in the medium and long term is clean energy. that's how will save money, why read reduce the defendants for foreign oil. developing new technologies, to lessen our reliance on fuel that is imported from other countries. including unstable parts of the world. that is why i think cutting clean energy investments by 70 percent would which has been proposed would be such a mistake. finally, i know this is near and dear to your hearts. we will not reduce the

deficit by cutting education.

estimated by the budget office which is an independent bipartisan referee in congress that determines these things, they figure that seniors would end up paying twice as much for the health-care as they're currently. at least twice as much. more importantly, it would get worse over time. health-care inflation goes up a lot faster than regular inflation. your health care costs keep going up, up, the venture doesn't. each year, more, more cost of a pocket. i think that is the wrong way to go. that would change medicare as we know it. and i'm not going to set (no audio) for that. (cheering & applause) having said that, we're

going to have to reform medicare, and their entire health-care system in order to improve quality for the amount of money we spend because we spend much more money in this country on health care than any other industrialized country and their outcomes and not better. that is what we started doing with health care reform last year. police said was let's not just of these additional costs on seniors, it is not hard to save the government money if you're saying here, you pay for it. that's not a solution the question is how we actually make health care costs lower overall? that means that we work with providers, to say how can you do a better job of providing care to the chronically ill? 15-20 percent of the patients account for 80 percent of the costs. because they have

chronic illnesses can read and semis providers to do a better job? monitoring those illnesses, preventing them. treating those illnesses in a comprehensive way, so the overall costs go down? can we stop with the five-six tests? all of which the cost money and just give you one test and have the results e- mail it to everyone you need to deal with. that can save us money. their whole host of steps that we can take that could make a big difference and reducing costs overall. keep the mind even if an automatic fare. >> justine: here listening to president obama speaking to a group of college students at virginia community college he was discussing his vision for bringing down the deficit and talking about medicare and medicaid. president
