San francisco has its tourism, tech and teams that bring in billions of dollars. Its Unemployment Rate is 4 . Kansas citys Unemployment Rate is over 6 . A local florist sees that every day. This is the midwest. People are more conservative here i think and they are holding on to the money. They are not letting it go out. So the economy is not booming back . Not as farce as i would like it to be. Reporter moneywise, this world series will fill up the hotels, the restaurants, and the cabs here for sure. But for kansas city, this may be about more than money. You walk around the downtown area, youre seeing people Walking Around with the royals gear on, jerseys, hats, t shirts, its been really huge. Then also if you look around the city, we put up banners to welcome visitors and showcase the community that we have pride in the community. Reporter so the cities rake it in one way or another, civic pride a wellknown community, or cash. They take it, too. So do the teams.

And in florida, you cant legally buy pot. Unfortunately, the fda approved medications that were prescribed to our children were very dangerous, even deadly. And most of them get our children high. Reporter morphine, for instance. The strain of pot these kids ingest through drops contain mostly an agent that does not get someone stoned. But some have thc which does, and thats okay with him. My son is on a drug which bad side effects make him want to commit suicide. He has asked me several times to kill him. But when wit thc, at night he asked me for a bag of cheetos.
