It is eight on Wall Street. The following 35 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 1: is from Bloomberg View, opinions and commentary from Bloomberg columnists. 36 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 1: I'm Clive Crook, a columnist for Bloomberg View. The biggest 37 00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:58,760 Speaker 1: misconception about next month referendum on Britain's membership of the 38 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 1: European Union is that it will put the issue to rest. 39 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:05,760 Speaker 1: That's unlikely. The referendum on Scottish independence is a guide 40 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 1: to what's coming. Scott's in two thousand and fourteen voted 41 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 1: to stay in the UK, then at the next election 42 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:16,360 Speaker 1: gave the Scottish National Party, dedicated to Scottish independence a 43 00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:20,960 Speaker 1: crushing victory. The UK's calculation on Europe is similar. Quitting 44 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 1: the EU is a big risk, so prudence says stay, 45 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 1: But British, that is, English resentment at rule from Brussels 46 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 1: won't be assuaged by being offered the chance to go. 47 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 1: Doing the prudent thing will only make Britain more resentful. 48 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 1: If it votes to stay, the UK will be more Euroskeptic, 49 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 1: not less. So much so the EU might eventually want 50 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,240 Speaker 1: Brexit more than the Brits do. There's a kind of 51 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 1: twisted logic here for the UK. The biggest risk in 52 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:51,520 Speaker 1: Brexit is that the EU will punish it for leaving. 53 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:55,359 Speaker 1: The answer is obvious. Vote to stay, then be so 54 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 1: exasperating that the EU will actually pay you to go. 55 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 1: I'm Clive Croker, colinist for Bloomberg View.

I'm Bloomberg Radio Michael Tom. We have a 60 00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:22,680 Speaker 1: this just in Bill Gross out with his latest commentary. 61 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 1: He is he foresees trouble ahead for the U s 62 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:29,080 Speaker 1: economy and helicopter cash. He thinks central banks will go 63 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:32,960 Speaker 1: to helicopters. That's the new Janice commentary from Bill gross 64 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: who will be with us on Friday when we report 65 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 1: the jobs figures, so we'll certainly be talking with him 66 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 1: about that. You'll want to tune in on the news 67 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 1: of the day. On the political side, of course, Donald 68 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: Trump wins essentially the Republican nomination by sweeping Indiana yesterday. 69 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton loses to Bernie Sanders but still has more 70 00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 1: has about twice the number of delegates he has, so 71 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 1: still on track for the nomination, although that will continue 72 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 1: to be a race going forward. Uh what are we 73 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 1: to make of these results? Well, the Almanac of American 74 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 1: Politics says that Indianapolis is precisely at the center of Indiana, 75 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:18,719 Speaker 1: the largest, most dominant city in the state. What residents 76 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:23,280 Speaker 1: once disparaged as Naptown has become a thriving metropolis, including 77 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:26,159 Speaker 1: the downtown district. Does that mean Andrew Carson's a vice 78 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:32,039 Speaker 1: presidential candidate for Mr Trump? No wrong party? Uh. Andrew 79 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 1: Carson is the congressman from the seventh district, which in 80 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:39,920 Speaker 1: UH compasses much of Indianapolis, including the downtown all pretty 81 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:43,719 Speaker 1: much most of the of the city. And uh, and uh. 82 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:46,720 Speaker 1: He has a very diverse district. He is a Democrat, 83 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:51,480 Speaker 1: which leads us to a very interesting question. Indian Indiana 84 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 1: voted for Donald Trump. He got more votes almost by 85 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 1: himself in the primary than Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders 86 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:02,919 Speaker 1: did together. You have a state that is industrial rust 87 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 1: belt but also trying to, you know, move towards a 88 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 1: more technology driven state. So ken Donald Trump win Indiana 89 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 1: in UH in the fall? Can he convince the people 90 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 1: in your district that things are terrible and he is 91 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:28,719 Speaker 1: the answer? Well, I think we have to look back 92 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,480 Speaker 1: at the election results in two thousand and eight, where 93 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 1: you had a Republican governor of the former Omb director 94 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:41,520 Speaker 1: under George Bush MS Daniels, when Marion County and you 95 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 1: had President Obama when Marian Colly. So, even though Indiana 96 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 1: is a red state, um Indianapolis in particular, there's there's 97 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 1: a strong libertarian streak in an independent streak, and it's 98 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:57,919 Speaker 1: reflected and what you've seen in in in the recent 99 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 1: election revolts well characterized for us the feeling of people 100 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 1: in your district, not about each of these individual candidates, 101 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 1: but about the economy in general. Well. Our unemployment hubbs 102 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 1: around the national average, which is around five percent. Our 103 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 1: state was impacted tremendously, uh because of NAFTA. You know, 104 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:27,159 Speaker 1: one out of every five jobs in Indiana's a manufacturing job. 105 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 1: There are changes that are taking place in our state 106 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 1: and in several counties as far as the I can see, 107 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:38,960 Speaker 1: there wind turbans being built and so our our technological 108 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:42,719 Speaker 1: sector has been growing and is growing. But what we're 109 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 1: seeing is that we're trying to transition those folks who 110 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:50,720 Speaker 1: come from the manufacturing sector h into a different space. 111 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 1: Our largest employer employers happened to represent the healthcare industry, 112 00:06:55,800 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: be at Ali really or Anthem, Blue Cross and scores 113 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 1: of hospitals that we have in the Sydney in particular, 114 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:08,480 Speaker 1: but more and more Hoosiers are becoming self employed. They're 115 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 1: starting their own own businesses. And we have to remember 116 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: that Indianapolis is the amateur sports capital of the world. 117 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 1: But this shift is that because they traded Peyton Manning. 118 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 1: I just wanted to get you going, Congressman, early in 119 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:28,520 Speaker 1: the morning. Let me let me shift, let me shift 120 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:31,320 Speaker 1: the dialogue. Congressman, if I could do, what's so important? 121 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:34,679 Speaker 1: You have a heritage within Indianapis, with your grandmother Julia 122 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 1: Carson serving as well within the new seventh district. What 123 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 1: would be your prescription for Secretary Clinton? Does she need 124 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 1: to provide a Sanders Warren like more left economic plan 125 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 1: or does Secretary Clinton need to move to the Indianapolis 126 00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 1: middle Well, you know, I am uh. We live in 127 00:07:55,840 --> 00:08:00,679 Speaker 1: a centrist country. Essentially. I think that Secretary Clinton has 128 00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 1: a fantastic message that resonates with Hoosiers. She being from 129 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 1: the Midwest, Um, I think she has Midwestern sensibilities. UM. 130 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:12,040 Speaker 1: I think what would be most important is for her 131 00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 1: to unleash her very capable surrogates in the state. Who 132 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 1: can who can, who can who can persuade those voters 133 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:23,640 Speaker 1: who are on the fence. I agree with a lot 134 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 1: of what's Senator Standards has to say, I think he 135 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:30,480 Speaker 1: represents progressive possibilities. At the same time, I mean, Hoosiers 136 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:35,640 Speaker 1: tend to be conservative as it relates to economic issues. 137 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:38,319 Speaker 1: We've seen a huge shift in our state under the 138 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 1: rifra UH legislation and and Governor of Pensis fiasco, and 139 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 1: so socially, Hoosiers and Democrats tend to be more towards 140 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 1: the left on social issues, but the economic questions are 141 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 1: still wounding in our state. You know, I came out 142 00:08:57,040 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 1: against the Trans Spacific Partnership leasing them. I of etonomenly, 143 00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,800 Speaker 1: I'm a member of the New Democratic Coalition UM. But 144 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 1: I was a no on the Columbia Free Trade Agreement, 145 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:08,080 Speaker 1: I was a no on the Career Free Trader Agreement, 146 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 1: and I wasn't knowing the Panamania Free Trader the simply 147 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:13,959 Speaker 1: because I've watched hundreds of thousands of jobs leave our 148 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:17,720 Speaker 1: state and most recently Carrier, which is located in the 149 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 1: heart of my district and can't do their jobs. Now 150 00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:24,440 Speaker 1: Donald Trump can't keep Carrier in the state, despite what 151 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:30,440 Speaker 1: he says. Uh. But then what is the message when 152 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 1: you from either candidate the Kennedy who's going to win 153 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 1: Indiana this fall. What is that the message they're going 154 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 1: to bring to your constituents. I think that messages they 155 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:46,560 Speaker 1: are going to support policies that make it much more 156 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:50,640 Speaker 1: difficult for companies to ship jobs outside of the United States, 157 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:53,720 Speaker 1: and those companies who attempt to do so will be penalized. 158 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:56,040 Speaker 1: We have to look more seriously about bold many of 159 00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 1: our attack blotpholes that allows companies to do these kinds 160 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 1: of things. Say that kind of message resonates with users 161 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:06,080 Speaker 1: as it does with other folks. And must belt state. 162 00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:10,000 Speaker 1: We don't have time, Congressman Carson, but I must have 163 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 1: you back on infrastructure and investment. I remember one day 164 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 1: Congressman Carson driving on a four lane highway in Indiana 165 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:21,080 Speaker 1: that all of a sudden became a two lane highway. 166 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 1: Most people have forgotten about the building of the Internet system. 167 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:29,000 Speaker 1: I think Congresson Carson, thank you so much. He is 168 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 1: the Democrat from Indianapolis. That was fascinating. I mean, and Mike, 169 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 1: we don't talk enough to people in the trenches. Actually, 170 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 1: I love what he said there.
