That cup of coffee is loaded with antioxints that are good for you just like whole milk kids would get fa b it turns out lowfat is inlging in the junk food. Go figure. Now to jus a little salt could you in. And chocolate apparently is loaded with engh in dioxins. Antioxidants. We are urging ction when the government comes cracking down they are at it again the white house set for a major food standard overhaul to force mafacturers to label everything from cereal to microwave popcorn and everything else. Leave aside that experts find it is no longer giant food but not a wholerain. This will keep them busy. To you think the fda could save the btched it label . Maybe all cigarettes are not the problem. Maybe not doing it endange america with those rigorous standards stopping things that work canosting those who want to work and who want to eat and eat and who want to live a better life without being dictated to wiih every facet of their lives. With the changes being plant you have to complete the reconfigure 1600 vending machines since many have posed i said i wld personally stand guard as he reconfigures but it is good to have you. It will cost to a lot of money had to factor this out to . Image as the vending machines will be over 1 million does it include the waiters who have the orders to tell how many calories . It is out of control. Neil what about the vending machine . To explain how much nutrients with every item that youell. If it is said bag of chips is says how many calories or salt or sugar. And en to throw off will hold information board i dont know what to do. Neilif they get peat butter cups th know that it is not a lowcalorie acks item. But the government says people are confused but if you dont grasp that you are an india. I will not spend billions of dollars to educacate you to make you not eat it but to clarify aou are about to take out of that cpac machine is not a salad spinner exactly. It is a snap machine. They wanted a chocolate bar or a bag of chips. That is what they will have. We will not change their eating habits by giving more information in. Neil so if people saw the calorie count thenhey might think twice. They take on the little guy. Why not the big guy . Let them do this but the calorie count on labeling instead of the machine . Neil they can absorb it but its y could get the alfalfa samba from the machine . But you can. Thank you very much. Neil by the way they do not have alfalfa us nec machines. I know the heart isn the right place but it is the government of overdoing it . I know we all want to lose weight from time to time. To right have healthy cookbook for my doctor . I dot turn to the deral government to look at the pyramid for advice. The marketplace that voluntarily provide information for years and good information does not necessarily equate into good choices. Neil we are better informed to eaters but we are better informed. I am not sure we are better informed and given the record with respect to theolloutthis has the potential for disaster for average americans. The nanny state scscnce it is not exact. Said years ago it was bad now it is good. I am not sure people in need of stable but take some personal responsibility. Neil what is the vice food today . Growing up at was trans fats but because of the change. I could never keep tck to remember my italian grandmother who was the big believer everything was fair game. And she had the eighth grade education but understood life everything in moderation. Dont set out of the deserts of. Neil dont go crazy. The usda and regulatio are up for review in 2015 so they are sitting down and it is not just nutritional value but are we providing green fruit, Sustainable Food it is all sorts of areas from snapple or food stamps to use School Lunches , military, a prison, a blighted ranging implication. Neil petri botched on a san butter and coffee but we have to revise the labels but they just findnew labels. Well looks good jay may not look good tomorrow. Viewdata label to tell you the Movie Theater size then guess what . Gets some personal responsibility. [laughter] thank you. Fast furious about this very subject keep it coming because i promi we will hear from you. Your chance to sund off of e regulations. Six years after mohammad of the it turns the boxing business onts he. Larry holmes who came after the legend. Era coulter is catching up now focusing on Identity Theft. Better late than never. 57 back to the Food Labeling overall was just stay this is stupid ben will so companies will jus pass the cost onto consumers effendi wineries these nothing like additional cost on biness to make the nay state fe better. Keep those coming. We are listening. Because whenever highlight that nobody else is talking E Administration is talking. Attorney general walter of the economic scene today Identity Theft and hacking ar a problem why now . Is a problem . It is so out ofcontrol the Justice Department is finally giving it look for a protest says it is about time with the minimum wage that businesses dont like have we missed the threat . Neil there were a little preoccupied this was just a definitely under the purview but they just woke up to it . ThE Administration has not been overly concerned about citizens privacy as he has en in the white house because of his policies. With the nsa if they were really concerned and remember, of the Government Works with these Big Companies which would be hypocritical to punish target that has of privacy breach but they work with them to get information that they say are to prevent terrorism. Neil but the Justice Department says we are looking into it. I know the irs is looking into targeting conservative groups. With the state department looking at benghazi. That sounds a lot like my dad i both think abt it. You never got any answer. Do they deliberately plotted out there that they are on top of it . I agree i dont know if they will do anything. Looked across the state level theyre prosecuting they dont want thefed to get involved that makes a harder to prosecute identity thieves at the local level. As you have seen om the state level prosecution is better to get results. They probably need a pet project taking focus of other things but maybe they have not been paying attention because they promote policies that encourage it in the theft whether signing up for obamacare or fighting voter identification. Neil but there seems to be something going onhere. Nothing happens a. A good chuckle. Thats it. Presidenobama just channeled cliff from cheers. Neil bett late than never a the president acowledges what class has spent scaming about for years. Manufacturing matters it is not a bad thing or look down on the people who do. The star who has been saying as long as i can remember trade skillsempo not that college is right for some but not for all. There is another alternative d has been talkingbout it more than anyone i know. How areyou . Neil your impression of me is not too bad. If i go to disney world your voice is everywhere. Especially if you have children under 12th. Neil even people my age it makes the children were a. But you must be of little happy about. Better late than never but the president says we have to focus on the proper training and proper skills that are chased a broad . But also the infrastructure. A survey came out we are 25th in the world behind barbados. Not just in manufacturing but children especially are not allowed to work with their hands any more. You have to who can take with the take care of the electrical system, water system manufacturing is another issue. But every industry started with one person inventing one thing and they usually started off as a child tinkering. That is what i am trying to do do. To reinstate a shot glasses and home eric classs you learn how to measure, cut measure, cut, and goals, hygiene, but the time you t into math you already have it. When manufacturing disappears if the dont do something about it then be are a slave nation. Neil we tell our kids we want the best one is a machinist one fixes cars but they are doing very well and very much in demand. To get to the plumber is something we dont appreciate. But in immerse society we frown at the skill set that made us a great nation. I spoke at a trade school in pennsylvania and one of the graduates is making over 200,000 per year as a builder. A company in new york, the cl1 his way to argentina to a higher vaulters. To higher welders. As the Manufacturing Initiative is set up someone at the head to organize it tout it together give them the tools and some mterials that save make something. If the can then they are not qualified to set up e manufacturing system the white hoe wants to set up. Neil but that is the problem. Neil you have then a voice in a relentless on this and i think it is finally pping it your way. Congratulations. It is like warning people of an asteroid 20 years ago the flaming ball will hit the earth and just now people say it is getting a little hot. [laughter] neil john, a pleasure. Thank you very much. If i have a problem getting a job then what will those hundreds of thousands the play in prison every year what will they do . They will go back to streets. Back tsociety. Is that what we would want . Somebody has to fix the system fast. Neil he hit a chord. Right back into his accusers face. [ male announcer ] these days, a Small Business can save by sharing.

Neil talk about doing time, newly released econ bernie kerik wondering if it is really worth the time. This is one of the biggest imbalances of justice. The guy paid 167 million in finds and restitution, is that not punishment . You convicted him in court, is that not puppishment . But den take some guy in for attempted murder, do 10 years, he was out in 4, he went out and killed a Nassau County cop and a civilian i his route to eapes. Ne tonight sandra on bere talking about dennis, talking about those who spe a lot of time stewing in jail, whether they cou do something more productive. Either in jail or something lik ja. Sandra, what you know, it is uneven in some very much so, he is saying no one has experienced like i to. And has been in jail and experienced this from perspective. He says, i love the way he said, if i cant get a job, after being convicted and doing my time, what about all these other folks to 18 and 19yearold kids in for drug charges they go in for 15 years they come out in 30s. They cant so to use his words, punishmentsen to fit the crime, this is too long, Collateral Damage he talked about stayed with me, how can we put these people to our world and expect them to b you know useful atditions toure country and our economy, if were punishing them, and the punishments dont fit the crime. That interview stuck with him, of all people that could do something in this, is he in a position. Neil maybe too. Their whole idea,n his case he is banned from a government job for life, and casow ski case, they are beened fm security for le, this is what they knew, they served time and for the rest of their lives they are serving time. Is there any publish am punishment they could do thetime and the crime goes away . They are not murderers, they didnt kill or rape anybody, he is bringing up a valid thing in ours so too. Neil a very up hill battle to wage, they automatically hate you from the get go. J. P. Morgan announcing thousands of layoffs could the billions in government finds have anything to do with it they are mostly in the Mortgage Business that is not a bigurprise. Were in the busines of reports on companies, they have an obligation to improve shareholder value, they incurred 23 billion in legal costs in 2013, they are cutting costs, this is not personal, they have to cut costs to irove sheholder value. They are actually addy 3,000 bs in compliance and risk management. Neil that would have come in handy. Handy. Ironic. Neil a lot we have emails from the people who are go to be laid off, the say, yeah, and jamey diamond got a there are jame dimon got a 20 million pay package. He has run the company for years, these guys are paid to be the heads of their companies, it is a very exof eironment, when it comes it guys who are accept alely run large corporation, jamey does that, to say, they are laing off guys and his bonuses are going up, not a fair argument. Neil if is based on performance. Final subject, dont say we didnt warn you, government is now saying that two out of three businesses will see healthcare premium hikes under the new health care law, sandra . That does not shock me. Speaker boeer, to qte him said had is another punch in the gut for americans already struggling in president obamas economy. This is mostly going to be younger people whose premiums are going up, of the ft with new law, premiums can no longer be paced on your age, younger folks are ping more older folks likely less, but at end of the day people are going to be ying more period. Not what we want to hear. Neil why is this a fox alert . Think about it, everyone is for keeping kids on your policy longer, that is nirvana. That is not what the president told us would happen. Neil you can expect to g that not pay for it,that i reality. Affordable care act. Neil is not affordable. Were learning, back to nancy pehl owes nancy posi thing w we didnt know what was in it when it pasassed. Neil i think we did. 50 years ago today, boxing changed forever just weeks after the beatl came to america a guy who floated lik a butterfly, s st and stung like butterfly, s st and stung like theres this kid. Coach calls her a team player. Shes kind of special. She makes the whole team better. Hes the kind of player that puts the puck, horsehide, bullet. Right where it needs to be. Coach calls it logistics. Hes a great passer. Dependable. A winning team has to have one. Somebody you can count on. Somebody like my dad. This is my dad. Somebody like my mom. My grandfather im very pround of him. Her. Th. You are gonna need a wingman. And with my cash back, you are money. Forget him. My Airline Miles will take your game worldwide. What im really looking for is i got two words foyou rewards. Theres got to be better cards than this. [ male announcer ] theres a tter way with creditcards. Com. Compare hundreds of cards from all the major banks to find the one thats right for you. Its sple. Search, compare, and apply at creditcardsom. First rounds one. He will end up in the ring side seat. Neil a 7 to 1 underdog he talked like he was the top dog cashous clay then, stepping into ring with boxing champ sonny liston, some Sports Reporters feared for the 22yearold challenger life that he taunted liston so much that lisn would let loose. Did not happen, clay won that title, 50 years ago this evening announced he would change his name too mohamad ali turiano h awell,i, he was a muslim, some say that was ale w prompted professal wrestling to itself get to more theatric call. Tonight, we look back on the sport and coury one very loud boxer changed. 50 years ago tonight. With me now the former heavyweight boxing champion of the world. Larry holmes. And jim gray from my money, the be guy who ever covered poxing, ever, two champs with us, larry, you to first, i alys said you were Rodney Dangerfiel of boxing you came after moment muhammad al ale a, i, did you not dodge anything, looking back at ali , and at clay, and what he did then. And how he changed boxing then, what do you think . I thi a great job, he was the Martin Luther king of boxing, he gav boxing opportunity, and pride, he went on fought the ones they put in front of him, as far as sonny liston, i was an ali fan. I think what he did was fantastic, bause i w was young, and i was rooting for muhammad ali, he could do no wrong in my book. Neil you used to be a training partner. I sparred with ali for four and a half years, he beat h up a couple times, i got even with him at the end. Without anger. Neil but jim, i was not blowing you smoke to talk about yr contribution, someone who wawatched and analyzed this i thought, you asked the nastost questions of fighter nastiest questions of fighters, i always thought someone was going to hits you right now, i machinetioned ali, and how he made it certainly changed boxing as we knew it and has since come to know it, were almost disa. Ed after the fact. He was so great, and he was so much fun, neil, he made it fun for everyone. Larry talked about what he did for theusiness, but he was a goo that changed paradigm for all of sports, he was brash when people were not brash. He was outgoing, hh started all of this track talking, people at the time trash talking people at the time some were offended by it later they have come to love him, the greatest institution in history o boxing perhaps sport he lit the torch in 1996, he school for social justice and change see stood forocial justice and change, ere will never b another one. Neil the big thing that when jim was talking about there he lost his title because he said he was not going to fight in vietnam, i think he said, high would beat him up abt the not kill him, what do you think, rry as a young boxer in those days, and that struggle, when whether he was sending mixed messag to the world . Well, he was sending mixed messages, but i think he did the right thing for ha he believed in. He did not believe in the war, i think he should stand by, that i dont believe in, that i dont think we should go over there and fight people we dont know, killeople we dont know. I mean, i think ali did the right thing, as far as booking he was the boxing he was the n of boxing, i would ride down the street with ali he would realm sis all he would say to his opponent, he would talk to his self, i thought he was azy, he would say, im bad, im bad, im pretty, im this and you are ugly, he would say that stuff with nobody else in the car, i thought he was crazy i thought maybe too many fights, maybe i should not fight becau i might be talking toyself like that one day. I didn want that to happen. Neil jim aual us wonder, with the way he was, you knowe would actually pk a round, and an open op woul opponent open would fall, reporters fall following him, did they fin him a around val act or what . He was changing boxing, he put pressure on other fighters, joe frazier is famous for saying, old uncle tom remark that ali used against him that never left him. Well, it was very tough for joe frazier, and but, ali can vated and enamored all of these guys he brought theublic with him, high put the rea ends in the seat, he made the cleaa of one howard cosal. I am asking you this. I was in awe watching you as a young guy, and i always wanted to knowf you recented coming after someone like, that you fought that epic battle withenen norton, they said you have to fight the next mandatory challenger you did, you did not avoid anybody, there were no tin can fights for you, you fought them. Always felt you were never given your proper receive, maybe because proper respect, maybe because you came after. Neil i want to thank you for ying, that i be tame lik the forgotten fighter, i got was not supposed to make it but i had fun out there, i had fun being with ali, a sparring partner, i had opportunity fun listening to the way heaid thing, ali of good at he would brings reporters with him, there was guys he would pick on like howard cosell. He made the reporters known that you donenow, whoever thought about a dirk young or someone like, that they thought abo him. They called him names. Ali brought all these guys along. Same thing with the fighter. Neil thank you, thank you both. Yeah. Thank you in all right,. Neil i can interrupt you now, ou are on remote. Thank you, neil. Jim, and larry, and 50 years o, this evening, everything about boxing changed. Thank you, neil. Then came thatarn payperview, destroyed it . 7 tax bracket . How would you like 2 . E plan to maker tax code super simple is already doa, it neil do not expt the president to sign if bu i has not stopped a growing numberf republicans from pushing it two tax rates, not 7, but two. 10 and 25 . Odds of that ever happening,m putting them at 0 , but grover fore queser more quest said this is about republicans making a staple, grover, what do you make of this, others have been talking in press, and opinion pieces,ike now is the time. I hear that. When the great ideas are mentioned, then nothing happens. We shoul have done this a long time ago, now is not the time because it was the wrong thing to do last week or last yeaa. We ave allowed our marginal tax rates on independent side to creep up individual side to creep up ove 40 , corporate side 35 at feder level, 4. 8 , at state level. 5 . So our cor corporate rate is 40 gen state Corporate Income taxes. Neil i think you are being conservative on that. I think wt people realize with surtaxingnd health care relatedaxes, i am leaving state taxes out of it, you know were in mid 40s here. But you are right, the fact is that it has been creeping up and up, and when you ask thos on left, or maybe aut the rich paying their fr share, i say, what is it . If its not 45 or 50 what is it . What are ty of . More. Re,ore. Neil very good. More.

To 1. 4 trillion, what the republican ways and means chairmen camp tutt pu putting it a revenue neutral tax reform, when says lets get to the lower rate, become internationally competitive, again. That were not now, either on the individual sydor on the business side. Lets get less stupid than europe, not more soup edtha study ed, we stupid, we can do that without raising total tax burden, obama has been talking, talking, talking for 5 years, he really meant he want a tax increase in middle of tax reform, this slopes out democrat position they want a tax increase, and they want to call it fax reform. Neil they dont want revenue neutral in. They want a trillion over a dede. Neil grover thank you very much. Good to be with us.
