RUSH TRANSCRIPT:

 

HARLOW: "Those who say, Mr. Mayor, that sounds too socialist. Capitalism, not perfect, America not perfect but the best example in the world. What do you say to them?"

DE BLASIO: "There's no contradiction between a free enterprise system and a very energetic role of government. And making some adjustments we need to people with participate in the society."

HARLOW: "Where is that right balance? You don't want a society where everyone has the same.”

DE BLASIO: "I don't think it's conceivable to have such a society with human beings involved. I want a society where no one is left out economically or otherwise."
