medicaid, pell grants, food stamps, low-income housing. how do people talk about they believe in the american dream, let alone king's dream when they have a public policy of taking away from those that already have the least and act as though if they say something about it, they are engaged in the politics of envy. >> well, you know, that's a little bit like saying toro ros parks, you're just jealous, envious of that man who has a seat on this bus because you want a seat on the bus. that's the kind of foolishness that we've gotten out of this campaign. we ought to say to mr. romney and anybody else who maybe thinking that way that you need to get real about what is going on in this country. i just talked about how the gap is getting wider, but he needs to understand that we are talking about fundamental fairness here. but if you look at the plan as he put forward, he has endorsed the ryan plan which said to people who are on medicare that if you continue in the program with this plan, it will cost you $6,400 more each year for your basic h

one thing is that colleges right now are required to provide pell grant graduation rates. so pell grant goes mostly to of low-income moderate students, and by looking that -- looking at that, now, it is not a reporting requirement, meaning we don't get that the information from every college and university, but if you call them and ask them or if you're on the tour and ask him what your graduation rate is, they're supposed to tell you. there has been work of another thing take that says maybe they don't do that and no one knows that they should do that. one thing i would say is as an inordinate -- organization like that he should be asking for that information and shaming people when they don't give it to you is a great role for a consumer or the general public to play with our disclosures that are required but not necessarily reporting consequences from the federal government. >> one more from the gentleman in the back. >> so you are talking about resources for consumers. that is really good. looking for best practices on how they can complete college education. what are
