Overtime is that going to send workers overboard . Yeah. Look, the problem here is we have an administration that has been hardly ineffective. But to their credit. They got a very Inept Congress to deal with. So you are not getting anything done in washington, d. C. Right now. They dont have a jobs plan. We washed the middle class. We will be losing since the 1990s. We are a Million Dollar less than in 28 when the president took over. The jobs weve added have been lower paying jobs. We do not simply have a jobs plan. The only jobs plan they have to the companies that cash on the ballot sheet. We want you to use that cash to hire workers you dont need or theyre telling people that are paying minimum wage, we want to pay a little more. We want these people to move up to the middle class. There is no middle class. Look at whats going on in west texas and north dakota. You dont have to put any type of measure in, because there is plenty of jobs. This should be left done to the individual states. You should not compare tup lo to mississippi. We have a national agenda. This agenda is not about workers, its about all states pure and simple. Sasha, why should governments tell business how to run their business . Well, i mean, it says in and it has ways going back to the industrial revolution. Its the laws we have. Its counterintuitive to think would send more people to the unemployment lines because what it would, in effect, do, is have an employer hire somebody else that could avoid extra overtime. It just doesnt make any sense. But the overtime is not, this isnt a new idea. The threshold is not a new idea. What the president wants to do is raise the threshold through mass inflation. Gary, is that true . Is that the way you read it . I dont. I dont know how many times we have to go back to the well with essentially, its a parts controls argument. We have been through it with minimum wage. We have been through it with price controls and we had the gas price controls back to our nixons time. It doesnt work, you cant force the market to do what it wont do. I go es in obamas mind, he thinks, you know, these fat cats in these companies are sitting there hoarding all these billions of dollars themselves. Thats not how it works. When a company pays more wages in overtime, they have less profit. Those profits are used by the company, theyre used by the company in the form of retainers, either giving the money back to shareholders with dividends. They grow the company further down the line. Its not that theyre sitting there, oh my gosh, we wont have champagne on the yacht tonight. It shows a basic misunderstanding of how businesses work. To think you can come in and just Tell Companies how much to pay and when. And that profits might be bad. Now, to sashas point, this might lower the Unemployment Rate because businesses want to avoid paying overtime. So they hire more workers. Its definitely about point. Thats the problem with targeting the unemployment right, you dont want to fix them, because what all that will do is take us further the decree by executive order is that you work them to 30 hours, which is what you are doing if you hire more workers. It actually will lower the Unemployment Rate. If you work over 20 hours, we have no unemployment. Everybody is coming to scramble to find new people. Thats not good unemployment. Its friends stupid unemployment, you are throwing out a company to hire people. Look, the whole notion of overtime is kind of a weird strange, its not obama. Bush sure did get rid of it than increase it. It doesnt make any sense, its hard for the government to move the profits from the company to the laborer by decreeing whether its minimum wages or timeandahalf or whatever. It doesnt work. Tracy, is now the time, an embarrassed shaky job market for the government to be reaching into businesses . I think the whole thing, betsy, the Obama Administration has to utter the words over time when there are people unemployed and the average workweek hasnt really increased all that much over the course of this socalled recovery. People are barely working 40 hours. So what country are we begging for overtime . If that was the case, brenda, that would mean the economy was gun slinging, moving forward. We got so much work to do, we need to pay overtime. We are not even close. They are living in lala land down there. Sasha, what do you say about that . Again, this is really about indexing a law that already exists with wages. So if this threshold, we are talking about this thresh had, its basically, who can be exempt from overtime. You are saying someone who makes 25,000 ought to be the idea is that you raise that higher, because that person is not a white collar worker. Whether or not you agree or disagree with overtime, thats a different conversation. But if you are going to have overtime, it ought to stay at the same rate of inflation. John, wouldnt this make workers make more, fewer managers, take them out of the white collar ranks and bring them down . Which is not the the way to incentivize people . No, its not. Brenda, there is what happens when a bunch of ideologues that have never ran a business, they love what to do. It sounds good politically. But the billions and becomes of dollars that will be passed down to the workers who made that money. That sounds wonderful. That helps in a midterm election. That has nothing to do with reality. Most of these companies you are talking about are franchisees. So it has nothing to do with the multinational company. It has something to do with the mom and pops who have to hire a 40hour a week employee. Its not realistic to hire and employee and work 40 extra hours. You have a manager. The way it works towards the end of the week, you say, hey, i node more work, business is good. Thats a good thing. A lot of managers enjoy that overtime. Companies, the big companies, are simply going to hire Contract Labor and get around paying overtime anyway. This has nothing to do with real life. What America Needs is very simple. America needs jobs. This does nothing to help. The only thing i question whether its going to work. Again, i think there is a role for government. The kind of thing, what would happen if they would lower the wages first of all, if they need 50 hours, they will lower your wages to adjust to the fact they have to give you a higher wage for the effect e extra ten hours. Its not going to lead to more wealth. The gel of it is. I will say because of obamacare and epa act, you almost have no choice to do that act discourages hiring new people because they have health insurance. Now you want to hire the existing workers, theyve have to make that difficult. Its a tack on. When you work overtime, you are exhausted. People gain weight, they smoke more, drink more. Now we got more health care problems. Look, i think there are way bigger issues that they should be pac u talking about down in d. C. Thats because none of us get overtime. Its a very important thing for workers. Brenda and i will both tell you, there is an overtime here. Okay. There is overtime. 50 hours. Im sure you felt it. The winter wallop wrecking roads. Now cashstrapped states may put a hole in your wallet to help fill those holes in the road. So ally bank really has no hidden fees on savings accounts . Thats right, no hidd fees. Its just that im worried about, you know, hidden things. Ok, whys that . Well uhhh. Surprise um. Well, its true. At ally there are no hidden fees. Not one. Thats nice. No hidden fees, no worries. Ally bank. Your money needs an ally. Headlines, log on to fox news headlines. Prepare to pop your top. Because all those potholes popping up from the wicked winter may do a wallop on your tires and wal ets. More cash strapped states comparing the growth. Gary b, we already pay enough. So not a penny more . Exactly, brenda, the healing cry is my gosh, we need to raise these taxes to pay for our roads, actually, we already raised a lot of money t. Problem is when the federal government gets ahold of it, they divert it to silly things like magnetic leavetation trains and bike paths. Not that theyre silly, if you try to fix the roads, they are. Ferrys, you know, racial profiling. Youd be surprised the things that this money goes to. Every other government slush fund. It doesnt get spent where it is. When it does get spent, the government paid it inefficieny. Why you had the bridge to no wore. The big dig which was 12 machine overbudget. Brenda, if we want to fix this, there are two ways. You can private advertise it like they did the highways in northern virginia, which i would be in favor for. If you want to government to run it, just use a user fee, used in the transsponders. A lot of us already have in our car. Sash what do you think of those ideas for the people who essentially use the roads to pay . You are still paying for it. If you have a toll road, right . I have those ezpass, too. If you have a toll road, you pay in that way as opposed to gas. I dont see what the difference is. We know, do we all feel like we pay enough already . Absolutely. Is there enough transportation and infrastructure funding . No. We know that because nationwide, bridges and roads are falling apart. So the reality is, you cant just sit on the sofa while your house falls down behind you. If the money is not going to repair the road, thats the whole issue. We are paying, but its not going there. I mean, that would depend state by state or federal. Like gary b said, he was talking about federal. I totally agree with it being at the state level. As a taxpayer, i dont want to pay federal funds. If you live in a state like new york in california, you are already paying 70 cents a gallon. I cant believe it. There is a huge difference between a gas tax and the toll roads, because i often pay both and i had nails and flat tires because of roads in this area. Look, its all about what gary b said, i would by gladly to fix the potholes if i knew well theyre going to get fixed . Theyre not. Theyre going to some Congressional Slush Fund that apparently pays for friday night dinners, i think. Who knows where it goes . If we knew it was being used properly, but its not. Jonas, your take on this. Why would somebody in sunny miami where they have no potholes want to pay this for new jerseys lousy roads . You take on new jersey every week, mr. Miami. Look, im for all kind of taxes that are not in exact with the law. The government will waste mooin money and misappropriate it and do big things, regardless of where the tax money comes from. So i would rather than raise it from sales taxes, gas taxes, that have no income tax to say the person who does the income, thats a difficult to collect tax. The gas tax costs less in collection. It will save the government that money. The federal gas tax, they have been raising that forever. Obama doesnt have the nerve to do it. He should. That doesnt cost the revenue. Tax a guy to mix fix new jerseys problems. The problem sheer not how we get the money to the government t. Problem is the government, itself, it is a net. You want to go state by state . How about all 50 states and one freg federal government. Lotteries were sold in the southern states, they were to fund education. It went into the slush fund just like gary b. Said. I am for using tax completely. I think if you fly you should pay for the tsa, i think if you drive, you should pay for it through a gas tax. The problem that everybody brings up that goes into the gem revenue. Its not being used on the roads. That is the problem. The problem is not the government raising money. The problem is the government. Absolutely. Sasha, what do you say is that issue . You know, we have the worst kind of government in the world except for every other one that exists, right . It is, there is going to be an ineptitude, absolutely. I think the fix for this is localizeing pot everywhere . Do you see colorado is looking at making 6 million a year. Is that because you are so high you dont notice the roads . You dont see the roads at all. We keep saying, well, its the government. Were always going to have we arent always going to have to dig deep. Soosh sha rides the same road i do in northern virginia. That was a public partnership, the private part took on the bulk of the risk for that and the state of virginia gets the bulk of the revenue or a lot of the revenue. They only have upside there. My gosh the whole turnpike system in our country started as private enterprise. It doesnt have to be government run. All right. That will have to be it. Thanks, guys. They were the First Union Group to support then president obama.

John, is this the best way to get women in the corner offices . It seems like such a small thing. I think it is a small thing. I applaud them for doing this. I dont know why a company would not want a board of director to look like its customers. In some retail places, 80 of the shoppers are women, yet 20 or less are ceos. Too many times in our corporate world, were hailing males as our corporate boards. I dont think thats an ad mirl quality to have in the year 2014. Im with john. I think any time you get a conversation going about encouraging girls to lead and encouraging girls to be more competitive and assertive and thats not just okay. Thats the way they should be. I think its a good thing. You know. So whats the word b . Leave it alone. Be proud. You cant ban bossy. I think the idea that its saying that you dont call a man bossy. You say that hes,000 hes demanding. I think the idea is that girls should be allowed to be that way, too. Okay. I got to get the boys in here, jonas. Our philosopher would counterthat by thai saying he paid the costs to be the boss. Thats the direction this should go. We should want our women bossy, not say dont call them bossy.

My wife was the ceo of a public cooperation an ceo of a private company. Im not sure any b word, bossy or otherwise got in her way. If she said lets get rid of the word bossy she would have laughed.
