0 congressional democrats see an opportunity here in what s a really tough political year. you have the midterm political elections ahead in november. so they re trying to certainly push this as well. the long-term unemployment benefits and this is also going to be a push a little later for the minimum wage as well, wolf. doug, go ahead and react to this. well, you know, the extension of emergency unemployment benefits is desirable but i don t think solves the fundamental problem and that s all there is to it. the minimum wage doesn t solve any problems either. it doesn t really address poverty and doesn t really help job creation. the difference between people who are poor and not poor is work. the poverty rate among those not working is three times higher. we need to get people into jobs and there s nothing about the minimum wage that does that. i have to jump in on this that because we re living in a time when the corporate share of the overall economic pie is as high as it has been in decades. meanwhile, the median male worker in this country has not seen a raise inflation ajusted since for 30 years, basically. so i think this is not just about working or not working. there s some real, large, entrenched structural problems that we need to address. they certainly do. we ll continue this conversation. doug, i mean, austan, make a final point because we ve got to run. my only final point is i think the impact on what s happening in the minds of the fed who just last month after the good report said, hey, let s go ahead and start the tightening, i think that s more important than the impact on the legislation. you mean if they continue the stimulus to keep pumping money into the economy? right. yes. right. all right, guys. all good points. thanks very much. obviously, lots at stake in this story as well. coming up, hundreds of thousands of people of west virginia now plagued by contaminated water. the governor of west virginia standing by live. i ll speak with him. that s coming up. and should west virginians be concerned about their actual health? an environmental lawyer whose story was the inspiration for a major film starring john travolta standing by to weigh in. she keeps you on your toes. you wouldn t have it any other way. but your erectile dysfunction - it could be a question of blood flow. cialis tadalafil for daily use helps you be ready anytime the moment s right. you can be more confident in your ability to be ready. and the same cialis is the only daily ed tablet approved to treat ed and symptoms of bph, like needing to go frequently or urgently. tell your doctor about all your medical conditions and medicines, and ask if your heart is healthy enough for sex. do not take cialis if you take nitrates for chest pain, as it may cause an unsafe drop in blood pressure. do not drink alcohol in excess. side effects may include headache, upset stomach, delayed backache or muscle ache. to avoid long-term injury, get medical help right away for an erection lasting more than four hours. if you have any sudden decrease or loss in hearing or vision, or any allergic reactions like rash, hives, swelling of the lips, tongue or throat, or difficulty breathing or swallowing, stop taking cialis and get medical help right away. ask your doctor about experiencing cialis for daily use and a free 30-tablet trial.
