Minneapolis, oversaw the Treasury Department 700 billion Bailout Program during the 2008 stay well and keep it golden. Financial crisis. Good morning, see you again. Good to see you too, savannah. Lets pick it up right there. We are expecting this monthly jobs report tomorrow. Weve seen week after week the unemployment claims just break every record imaginable, many people expect what well see tomorrow to be the worst report ever. What are you bracing for . I think thats right, but that bad report tomorrow is going to understate how bad the damage has been. And. L music fades in . That survey asks people are you actively looking for work and a hey hi lot of people who just lost their jobs and were all sheltering in place, theyre not actively looking for work, so i think the number tomorrow will probably be Something Like 16 or 17 . I think the real number is probably around 23 or 24 . Its devastating. It really is. I mean, it makes you think of the Great Depression, those are numbers we saw during the Great Depression. Im hopeful that we can bounce back, and i dont think im optimistic. I dont think were headed for another Great Depression. Part of the reason the Great Depression was as bad as it was was that policymakers in the 1930s did the wrong thing. They did things that made it worse. Weve learned from that and youre seeing bold action by congress to support american workers. The Federal Reserve is acting very aggressively. We will continue to act aggressively. I think its becoming clear that were in for a long, gradual recovery, which is unfortunate. I wish we had a quick bounceback. But were going to avert the depression scenario because policymakers will continue to be aggressive to fight that outcome. Thats a hopeful note. I do want to ask you about the recovery. Theres talk that theres so much pent up demand and that makes a lot of sense to people. Youd think as soon as those doors swing open everyones going to rush to ramp up on the economy. The president has said he actually expects a very good today loves teachers is Fourth Quarter in the economy, created by today with our end of this year, and a phenomenal, his word, a phenomenal recovery next year. Sponsor, state farm. Like a Good Neighbor, state farm is there. Do you see it that way . Well, i hope so but its really going to depend on the and we are back with today loves teachers, all week weve been celebrating National Teacher appreciation week, weve virus and its going to depend on how well our scientists and been honoring the men and women our Health Care Experts can get who use their talents and passion to educate our kids. Al thats right, hoda, during control of the virus. We do need a breakthrough in a vaccine or a therapy, ultimately to give all of us confidence these unusual times, so many are going above and beyond to stay connected with their students. Well, this morning, we have a Sweet Surprise for a group of truly exceptional educators. That its safe to go back out to meet first grade teacher deb restaurants or Movie Theaters or sporting events. Ultimately we are going to set cowley in rochester, new york, the pace of the recovery based on when we feel confident but that means we need to get making surprise visits to her students at home, delivering School Supplies as well as food and essential items that parents cant find in stores control of the virus. I hope so, but i think we need to prepare for a more gradual like a loaf of bread she left in recovery while we hope for a quicker rebound. One students mailbox. She dresses up in costumes for for you, if we dont have a vaccine, and we dont have a video calls with her students, miracle drug treatment that keeping them engaged and made them all her pen pals so they can keep practicing their writing. In los angeles, california, theres High School English solves 80 or 90 of cases that we dont get that economic teacher kara williams, shes recovery until we have one or constantly calling, texting and the other of those things . It will be gradual until we emailing her students to make sure they stay on track with have one of those things. I think were seeing targeted reopening. I mean, i think some businesses lend themselves to safety, you can socially distance, and some online assignments businesses you can wear masks she even conferenced in her own grandma who speaks spanish to translate a conversation with a students mom so she could understand what her child was and some businesses. Going through. But take a Movie Theater. One florida elementary when are we all going to feel safe to sit in a crowded movie schoolteacher katy noticed one theater. I like to go to the movies, i of her students was having a doubt im going to go back to a Movie Theater until we have a vaccine or therapy. Theres going to be a recovery hard time with online learning, she went to her house and read her a story from six feet away but i think it will be gradual on the driveway and this week on a business by business basis. She visited all 30 of her when you hear about restaurants saying were going to have every other table, that sounds students to de promising but i dont know how many restaurants can make ends meet if they are serving half as mothers day crafts they can make at home to give to mom. Then theres principal verdy montgomery from a high school in wiley, texas, hes traveled 800 miles over 12 days to visit all 612 seniors at home, taking selfies with each one from six many customers. Unfortunately the recovery looks like its going to be slow. And how much do you worry about what were seeing right feet away along his journey, now . Because the virus is obviously still with us. We actually see increasing, in leaving each of them with a certain parts of the country, yet we see all but a handful of candy bar and a sweet message of states begin those reopening support as they finish out their measures and the nightmare scenario is you get a situation where you reopen too soon, get more virus and you have to pay this horrible economic price school year at home. What an Incredible Group twice by shutting down again. Theyve done so much and we want to say thank you for going the how concerned are you about extra mile Something Like that . Im very concerned about that so in honor of that, our sponsor, state farm, is donating 10,000 to each of their schools because just as you said the virus is still spreading to help the students finish up strong and get a jump start on throughout much of the country. If we reopen too quickly, or were not smart about the next year. Businesses that reopen it absolutely could flare back up again. We study pandemics from around we want to thank everybody, keep up the good work and we hope, in some small way, this helps the world and in history. Guys it will.
