Yes, look, if you want to pay more for an Insurance Company that covers your doctor, you can do that. This is a matter of choice. Stuart yeah, youve got to pay up. The latest victim of obamacare, rebecca pierce resigned after efforts to fix the website in maryland failed. Its home to a large number of federal workers and a governor who is an outspoken supporter of president obama. Thats maryland. Do you watch football sunday . You missed a big day.

New from philips sonicare. 50 seconds to the opening bell and stocks will go up a little bit more. In chicago here is tres knippa. We hear theres a budget deal probably announced this week. Is that part of the good news back drop for the market . I think the main thing is that certainly the tailwind to this market is that weve had gridlock in d. C. Since the mid term elections of 2010. That is a positive underpinning to both Economic Growth admitted its modest, and to the market as a whole. Do i think this budget deal is a market mover . Not necessarily, but lets face it the market seems to go up on every bit of news right now. Stuart it doesnt hurt and the market wants to go up and i think youre on record saying 18 k for the dow fairly soon. Is that right . It is . Its coming. I dont know how we have to define fairly soon. Okay. And i will not pin you down, because that was not your forecast. Tray knippa, thank you. The opening bell has running. And were before 16,000. Everybody knows im a ludwick luddite sort of. Friday night i ordered a book on amazon and sunday morning it was delivered by the Postal Service. I thought id like you to know that amazon is using the Postal Service and it works. And another big name you know, its china mobile. Theyre going to take orders for apples iphones starting thursday. Apple is up in part on that news. China mobile is 700 million possible consumers there. We always say that tech rules. And that the pill maker, given imaging was just bought by covidien. Almost 900 Million Dollars. Nicole, lets explain this. This is, they put a camera inside a pill, you swallow it, it scours your insides, gives pictures to the outside world and someone just bought them for 900 million, its a big gain. Its a crazy idea and it works because it brings in about twothirds of the revenue of the sales they see 180 million in sales, 2 3 from this pill alone. The stock moving to new highs, its a bill about the size of a large vitamin, the camera is embedded inside. Its great to detect gastroenterology problems, bleeding, colon abnormalities. To see the inside of the patients body . Is there light there . Im not sure how it works, does it have a light . And covidien at 30 a share. Stuart hardly scooping it up. They paid 900 million to scoop it up. Thanks, nicole, were off and running and slightly higher. Lets stay on the tech theme. Keith fitzgerald is with us, keith, it seems like and i think youre on board with this one, technology is the place to put your money still, correct . Absolutely. Because if you think about what the world wants versus what the world needs, we have no option, but to continue with technology. So, all things tech are going to be good markets for the next five to ten years, actually. Youve got an interesting theory on apple and microsoft, tell us. Well, here is the thing, this is one of those unthinkable, but absolutely possible deals. I think that apple and microsoft may not only have to Work Together for the next few years, but may even see a merger five to ten years from now, because theyre going to have to take on the Google Android facebooks of the world. Im trying to digest that one. Exactly. Im not so sure that the government would allow that kind of get together, that kind of tiein, but it certainly is interesting. But thats pure speculation on your part at this stage, right . Absolutely speculation, but if you look at whats happening, and you look at what apple wants to accomplish with the mobile market, you look at the one Microsoft Initiative and you look at the cross pollenization of devices, security is king and a user base between the millenials and Senior Citizens that are easy usable stuff transparent between the devices. On the tv we saw 50 social apps preloaded to the tv. I didnt care about anything. What i thought was cool was i could go from device to device to device, my hand held and tv is plugged into the same stuff now. Interesting, any other tech names you like . You know, im interested in abg right now, 100 million plus downloads for the antiviral software, the model, the customers initially get to use it free and chalk up money for it and successful conversions and that to me is bigger than norton and some of the other things, interest of disclosure, i have none on those. Stuart abg, you like it, you dont own it, you like it, you think its going up . Yes, i do, i do. Stuart well, youre going to have to i wont argue with that. Stuart youre going to have to compete with Charles Payne for picking stocks and thats a difficult competition if ever i saw one. Yes, it is. Stuart walmart, lets move onto that. It had its Biggest Online sales day ever. A lot of items on the website sold out. Hes about to expose a problem with walmart. Brian sozzi is a frequent guest. You say that walmart is being deceptive. Whats the story . Vigilante man of people, this is a wakeup call when the Company Reports in february, Everybody Holding stock realizes what happens now. Massive inventory built in the stores right now. Stuart hold it, massive inventory buildup in the store and theyve got a lot of stuff in inventory they pay for it and cant sell it. Theres a dark underworld of inventory. It feels like the world is closing in, walk into the back of the store all of this stuff is on pallets, unopen. And u. S. Walmart sales help underperform their inventory for over six quarters. This is a company at headquarters buying goods thinking its moving out the door, but the economy is consumers are telling something different. Stuart youre famous for going into the stores with your video camera and pointing out messy stores, stains on the floor, in this case lots of product lying around unsold, but you know, walmarts always like that. A lot of discount stores, big box retailers, they are kind of messy, targets not, i got that, but a lot of the rest are, and are you reading too much into this. They came out on black friday and set unrealistic expectations, 29 cent towels and a remarkable quarter. I say no way jose, and theyre going to have to mark it down. They have he an issued two warnings and they wont issue the warnings report until next february. Correct. Stuart if they do that, the stock will go down . I think it will continue to underperform, and where it will get hit are those that supply the company. Stuart and working people and middle class people are getting a squeeze in this particular economy, do you think thats hitting walmart and their inventory . Absolutely. This is a direct function of the economy and arrogant headquarters executives are still buying goods for another world. Stuart so youre blaming the economy, but blaming walmart for not coming, as you said, clean about sales. Theyre not coming clean and 29 cent towels is not enough reason for me to buy the stock and inventory problems, liquidation, margin pressure coming to walmart. Stuart brian, we hear you and we shall watch carefully. Thank you. And another big name you know, mcdonalds, sharp drop in u. S. Sales. Nicole, whats the results . Were watching mcdonalds right now, close to 1 to the down side and hitting exactly 96 bucks. The problem was not europe, actually. The problem was right here in the United States of america, as well as japan. Thats where they saw weakness and they talked about competition and they talked about a weaker Global Economy and softness because its not hitting the restaurants. Thats interesting and i want to move into abercrombie and theyve issued a statement saying that their ceo, i believe his name is mr. Jeffries, hes going to stay and hes the guy that said i dont want overweight people shopping in my store and i dont particularly want to see them, but hes staying. Now, what happens to the stock after that announcement . Hes staying and this was last week we were talking about one shareholder in particular, who was outraged and thought of the time frame to leave and i think hes a block from moving the company forward. In the meantime, the stock now is reacting negativetively and its down 2 1 4 and Mike Jeffries stays on and he has a more incentive based contract and makes 1 1 2 million a year and its a new longterm deal for him. Yes, it is. Nicole, thank you very much. Next item, yahoo . They just bought a streaming video Startup Company that airs live concerts, called events live. Keith fitzgerald still with us, and what do you think about yahoo . It seems to me that mar marisa mayer totally transformed the company, its not the same yahoo . Aside from the logo that kind of flopped, but yeah, i agree with you. Shes making important moves and it puts it up potentially against netflix and h. B. O. Space. A lot of things to do with it, but whether she does it remains to be seen. The remaining piece is the alibaba piece over in china. Stuart the nasdaq is up and dow is up. Not a bad start to a monday morning. Its a harsh reality, one of the greatest wealth distributions of all time is happening right here at home. The young paying for the old. It really is a generational clash. Well deal with it after the break. Pleased to meet you hope you guess my name oh, yeah announcer at scottrade, our clients trade and invest exactly how they want.

It doesnt usually work that way with health care. But with unitedhealthcare, i get information on quality rated doctors, Treatment Options and estimates for how much ill pay. That helps me, and my guys, make better decisions. I dont like guesses with my business, and definitely not with our health. Novations that work for you. Thats health in numbers. Unitedhealthcare. We expected a very modest gain this monday morning and weve got it. 8 points up. 16,028. Where is the price of gold this monday morning . I will tell you right now. Were up 6 bucks at 1235. And obamacare, medicare, Social Security, theyre all transferring wealth from the young generation, Younger Generation to older people. The youngsters even know this is happening . Joining us now is kennedy. Shes the host of the independent, thats a brand new show it premiers tonight on the Fox Business Network. First of all, congratulations. Thank you, stuart, great to be with you, its a celebratory day. Stuart youre going to be live at 9 00 tonight. Got up who knows what time. I got up at 5 00 and taking the bull by the horns. Stuart tell me about the transfer of young to old. It gets from program to program. Whether its Social Security and now, its obamacare, but the notion that these pensions are just going to pay for themselves, this dilutional thinking, thats what we delusional thinking what the free marketers are rallying against for decades and finally its pushed to the brink and past it in places like detroit. Retirees for every worker when Social Security was first implemented it was the opposite. You had more workers than retirees so the system worked. But you know, theyve been going and going with these pensions and lawmakers have been voted in because of union votes and these blocks of voters who only helped craft this legislation that make these supposedly impervious, but you get to the point where your bank goes down. Stuart when youre in your 20s, 30s, career is starting out. Want to buy a house and car and children coming along. This is when your money has to be spread thinly, but precisely that time you have to support people like me. Youve got to support me in medicare, youve got to support me in Social Security. And now, with obamacare, youre going to have to pay more, even though youre young and healthy, youve got to pay mor morel more, relatively speaking, out of obamacare. Actually obamacare is the one instance where Everyone Needs health care at the same time. With Social Security, i mean, youre talking about a program that is theoretical for people for decades so if youve got someone in their 20s, 30s and 40s theyre not thinking of retirement, assume at some point it will be there. The idea of losing your health care, if you youve got a chronic condition as a young person, you need that. If youre over age 26 you need your health care now and the notion that there has to be young, Healthy People paying higher premiums to support, you know, Older Americans who now are being promised free insurance essentially. Stuart youngsters do know the know this. No, the harvard poll showed just this weekend that people 18 to 29 overwhelmingly, a, think its going to be repealed, and b, they think that the health care is going to get much worse, which it is if youre going to medical school now days or thinking about it, would you make that leap, that commitment if youre, you know, 19, 20 years old . No, because health care is a disaster. Its not the kind of lucrative field it was when i was a kid and you were a kid. Stuart the key question will those younger people, will they vote differently in the future when they realize that moneybeit at a critical time in their lives . Yeah, i mean, this is all happening very quickly. So youre talking about a generation thats right now is politically fickle. And you have two elections where they voted and reaffirmed their love for obama. But just within the last year, africanamericans, young people, latinos, they have been leaving this coalition because its not working. Will it make them Republican Voters . I dont think so. Will it turn them into independents . I hope so. Stuart thats the name of the show, isnt it, the independence. Yeah. Stuart youre doing it now, live, Fox Business Network and your coanchor is matt welsh. A camille foster. Stuart there you will be live and in living color at 9 00 tonight. Yes. Stuart lucky you. Congratulations, kennedy. I wish you well. Thank you, i really appreciate it and love coming on your show. Stuart its daily. Its monday through wednesday and friday. Every night that stossel is not on. Stossel leaves people hungry for me and were trying to fill the void. Stuart thank you. Kennedy. You cannot command income equality, it doesnt work, but the president is trying to do exactly that, isnt he . My take on that is next. vo you are a business pro. Maestro of project management. Baron of the buildout. You need a permit. To be this awesome. And you. Rent from national. Because only national lets you choose any car in the aisle. And go. You can even take a fullsize or above, and still pay the midsize price. aaron purrrft. vo meeeow, business pro. Meeeow. Go national. Go like a pro. New high for cisco, thats the food service company, not the tech company. Spelled with an s. And its up 18 and the market likes that. Sysco. And thats microtech, anchorman 2 a week and a half away bombarded with a marketing blitz it seems like months thats been going on and how this ad campaign for anchorman 2 can change the way that all brands promote themselves. And jon stewart takes me to task over the minimum wage. Do companies have a moral obligation to pay more than the wage. Father Jonathan Morris is here to weigh in on that. 15 an hour, tax the rich, you must have Health Insurance or else. Here is my take on the command economy. Thats what it is. The left quarterbacked by president obama is trying to command the return of prosperity, command fairness, with an of a magic wand and command the economy to obey the white house. Look at the 15 an hour movement. They want to legislate wages. Its not what you bring to the wage table, its what politicians decree you should be paying, thats a command. Look at the tax the rich idea. And thats an attempt to command income equality. Wave that wand, make them pay, even more, and they tell you we will be all more equal. Really . And how has that been going for the las five years. And then obamacare, perhaps the new motherload of the command economy, you shall have Health Insurance. You will give us your personal information, and stop whining if we lose it. You had enough of this yet . You see, it doesnt work. Command economies do not produce widespread prosperity. They do not produce fairness, it is the politically connected to win by command. But most importantly, its unamerican. I know that sounds very strange coming from someone with a voice like this, but i think that america is based on the free choice of individuals. I dont think americans take kindly to being told what to do. Commanding wage rates. Commanding the i impoverishment the middle class. Get off my back. Dont tread on me. Mm. Mmh. [ enne revs ] [ male announcer ] oh what fun it is to ride. Get the rcedesbenz your wish list at the winter event going on now but hurry, thoffers end december 31st [ sant] ho, ho, ho [ male announr ] lease the 2014 glk350 f 419 a month at your local mercedesbenz dealer. Monday morning, and we are still reeling from the latest obamacare headlines. Deductibles skyrocket. Medicaid will break the bank. Well, doug schoen is here on that and hes a centrist democrats and how theyll respond to the obamacare shocks for millions of voters. The judge is here, too. Local Police Departments now tracking your phone records. Yes, its down to the local level right now. The marketing blitz for the return of ron burgundy in anchorman 2. Were covering it. Father Jonathan Morris, do you have a moral obligation to pay above market wages . Well ask. And the ceo of roku, he wants to run your living room. Check the big board, yes, its a modest rally, 16,048. We say it all the time on this program, technology rules. A couple of big names that we follow very closely this morning, look at them, amazon is down this morning, but its at 3. 85. And apple is up another 3 at 563. Theyre tech bellwethers. And Charles Payne makes an appearance, and where would you put your money apart from Massive Technology . I tell you, its like all sectors are attractive, but its finding the cream of the crop. Auto sector fantastic. And home builders, i even like energy stocks. And people dont realize that electricity bills are at all time highs there, and the one that isnt getting any coverage yet. I like the coal stocks. It doesnt matter which industry you pick or what group you pick, look for the cream of the crop. The best performing companies and you think theyll do well no matter what industry theyre in. Particularly for the people who feel anxiety coming in late . Have you had the best year ever . And we might have done better in the crazy heyday when stocks were going for 100 to 20 for no reason, but the best performance as well. Weve had losers and also victimized by success and people want the ideas to go straight up and when they dont, they send me an email, whats going on. Stuart your inbox is flooded. What have you done for me lately . In the last 24 hours. Stuart and we have a big winner, i think, twitter, nicole . Thats right, its up about 6 . Keeping a close eye on twitter. Look at that, 47. 44. So on the day of the ipo we saw it cross the 50 mark, we havent seen that since, but certainly getting a huge pop today. Stuart is there anything in the news that we should know about . Ive not seen it, ive done a search and havent found any specific news. Nicole ill look and well report and regroup. Twitter has been a little fickle, but today its jumping. Stuart got it, thanks so much, nicole. Any comment on twitter . The other day when all of the different firms involved in the ipo were worried about putting an opinion on it, you had a couple of buys and a couple of neutrals, but it seems like it found a trading range and every time it goes under 40 the buyers step up to the plate. Stuart now in the battle of your living room who is going to win it . The xbox is in that, the playstation and apple maybe, there are a few contenders for the living room battle and this morning, we have the ceo of roku. And the ceo is in the game of winning your living room. Let me define this. When i say winning the battle for your living room, that means the device which were all going to use as we sit around looking for entertainment on the screen, is that correct . Thats the battle for the living room, right . Well, yes. You know, i think if you think about how americans are watching tv now, 50 of americans stream every day, so, the streaming tv over the internet is the way americans are going to watch tv in the future and once you connect the internet to the tv you have this opportunity to create a new platform and who is going to control at that platform i think is a big question. Were certainly one of the leaders. Thats what you do. Roku connects the internet to the tv screen in your living room. Is that right . Thats right, roku is a small box from 49 to 99 and you connect it to tv and wifi and you can stream thousands of cana channels of content, from netflix, espn, and even fox news. Stuart what do you mean even fox news. I caught that. Even fox news . Lets move on. Im sorry, i meant especially fox news, thats what i meant. Stuart fine if you want to come back on this show. How do you make your money . You sell the box, i got that. 29 to 100. How else do you make your money, anything else . You think about once you have a platform for stream, its really a distribution platform. Promotion is one of the things we do a lot of. And our content partners, they obviously want their contents to be watched the most and we have distribution and promotion and we have economic deals all of our partners. The service part of our business, you know, when someone buys the movie on roku. When someone watches an ad, theres a constant promotion of Service Partners the Fastest Growing and most prosperous business so far. Stuart i want to how are you different from sonys ps 4 and Microsofts Xbox one. Aside from price, i understand that, but whats the difference in approach. Theyre gaming consoles to their core. If you look at who is buying a gaming console, triplea titles. So those consoles appeal to that demographic and of course, those customers watch tv as well so the devices are great for streaming as well. But, really, theyre complicated and they have a gaming Remote Control and easy to use for a gamer, but for someone, your baby sitter, your parents, your wife. You, probably, using a simple Remote Control thats super simple to use and easy is really our difference, and very easy to use and of course, conte content. We have the most consent and making sure we have the best content like fox news on ours. Stuart you learn fast, you really do. And can you give me any idea of how many roku boxes are in use in the United States or maybe worldwide . Our primary market is the United States and we the last number we released was 5 million boxes the beginning of this year and we sold millions since then. And we will be announcing new numbers at the beg next year. Christmas is just upon us and its our biggest season of over 40 of all of our sales happens during christmas. Stuart one last point, can i watch live sports through my roku box . Absolutely. And you have a few different options, all the Major Sports Networks like mlb and hockey, they all have channels on roku for out of market games. For inmarket games you can use espn, to use espn you have to have a pay tv account that sports espn. Theres a concept to support. Stuart did you say half the households in america every single day stream something . Thats right, half of americans are streaming every day. Stuart execs extraordinary. The average roku customer streams 35 hours a day. Stuart thank you so much, we appreciate it. Thank you. Stuart yes, sir. Even fox news. [laughter] he corrected himself pretty well. Another one of our big themes today. The transfer of wealth in america from younger people to older people. Obamacare, medicare, Social Security. All of these vehicles are in fact part of the wealth transfer system. Charles, this is really happening. This is not a joke. This is not a mere theory, its happening. My question is, do young people know that its happening . They have no idea. Again, think about the idea that the Obama Administration made almost 42 billion dollars in profits off of Student Loans after hinting that they would somehow come to the rescue, maybe forgive Student Loans, maybe them lower, make them cheaper, but they make 42 billion dollars off that. And also consider that the people that were talking about, this young age bracket are also the poorest americans. I guess it goes back to years ago when we were so afraid of granny eating dog food, but we always think of Older Americans being dirt poor when in fact theyre the wealthiest of americans and younger people trying to make it into the system are the poorest. Why are we trying to put obamacare on their shoulders in are we nuts . Thats exactly what were doing because if you cant get young Healthy People into these insurance pools, youve got to raise the price of those pools to a prohibitive level and obamacare falls flat. Charles absolutely. Stuart i dont think they realize yet. Charles the Public Relations aspect of it they take that in. As they get jobs and start to raise their families, they start to have epiphanies and wow, okay. And change over the years. When youre young and ideological and dont think about the real deal. Stuart if you arent a socialist by the time youre 25, youve got no heart and if you arent after 25 youve got no head. Winston churchill. A private equity firm has not sold the company that manufactured the bushmaster, it cant get what the company is worth. Look how much theyve made. Revenue up 46 year over year during a time when gun control was front and center. Anything to add to that, charles . Yeah, cerberus has never impressed me. Its a private company, but their deals seem to be very unimpressive. You know, so i would say a wouldbe buyer is worried about this market peaking, youre up 46 , but comparisons going the next five, ten years. Stuart dangerous, isnt it . Politically dangerous and by the same token, with the fbi checks and were starting to plateau. The fbi checks for gun ownership has skyrocketed in the last few years and theyre still amazing, but starting to plateau a little bit. And a wouldbe buyer is going to look at that and say, has this market peaked. Stuart the dow jones, a modest gain and technology is leading the way. More prove that tech is where its at. Google hitting a high. Look at this, please. 1,076. It was 1,080 just a few minutes ago and now its backed off to 1, 1075 on google, its up six books six bucks. That w my middle, middle england accent coming through again. And several negative obamacare headlines for you, a medicaid time bomb. Doctors boycotting in california, sticker shock on deductibles for the average family and the obamacare disaster rolls on and doug schoen will be here next. If you dont know me by now you will never, never, never, know me ooh every day were working to be an Even Better Company and to keep our commitments. And weve made a big commitment to america. Bp supports nearly 250,000 jobs here. Through all of our energy operations, we invest more in the u. S. Than any other place in the world. In fact, weve invested over 55 billion here in the last five years making bp americas Largest Energy investor. Our commitment has never been stronger. You can fill that box and pay one flat rate. I didnt know the coal thing was real. Its very real. David rivera. Rivera, david. [ male announcer ] fedex one rate. Simple, flat rate shipping with the reliability of fedex. And just to be clear about fox news and roku, you cannot stream the Fox News Channel to your roku box, its a collection of video clips and the occasional stream of live events and streaming shows. And fox business has the similar place on the box. And the parent of is an investor. And charles. Charles the main invisalign product that straightens your teeth, you dont need to worry about it because of the british system you have the great teeth already. [laughter] and last time they reported revenue up and margins are expanding and a 3d play thats catching on great with the dentist and orthodone particulaorthodone orthodonetics. They have another line up align technology, align, your teeth. No laughing matter. Obamacare sticker shock. So many people are facing deductibles, they pay for and costs that the Insurance Coverage doesnt cover and the average deductible for the bronze plan, the average deductible is 5081 is for individuals. Thats up 42 compared to individual plans before the law went into effect. And former clinton advisor doug schoen is with us. I call this sticker shock number two. And i think it has to end the split within democrats about what to do about obamacare . It does and it will. People have yet to find out that not only does the website not work, but the plan is itself much more expensive than what theyve been paying before. When they do, stuart, your contention is exactly right. People will howl, it will hurt the democratic constituency and the party could well lose the senate in 2016 as a result. Stuart that bad . Yes, im sorry, 2014. Stuart 2014. I misspoke. Stuart hold on a second, ive got this from zeke emanuel, hes been on this program and hes one of the architects of obamacare. You can keep your doctor if youre willing to pay more. Here he is from fox news sunday. No one has launched a pr campaign because of the website. And were about to launch a pr campaign and people sign up. Did he say if you like your doctor you can keep your doctor. Yes, look, if you want to pay more for an Insurance Company that covers your doctor, you can do that. This is a matter of choice. Stuart what . Stuart, that last comment was bone chilling. Because the plan was sold that you could keep your insurance and keep your doctor and hes basically saying, you can do it youll have to pay more, which is, you know, its that appearance was a disaster. Of course it was a disaster. Look, and bottom line, there hasnt been pr for the aca . Come on, look, stuart, bottom line, the president is betting he can sell this plan and turn around the country thats 60 against it. So far the evidence suggests not only can he not sell it, but its back firing against the democrats. Stuart one second, charles, i want to run another sound bite from zeke emanuel about the glitches as theyre called on the website. Lets roll that one. Were trying to make this thing work. Is there going to be no glitches . I dont think anyone has that unrealistic expectations. When i got my iphone there were lots of glitches and they had updates. Large scale with millions of people. Stuart excuse me, send updates to fix the website like you do on your iphone . Thats a terrible thing to have out there. Well, a, this isnt an iphone. B, its not a consumer product. It is a basic core element of the democratic philosophy and the democratic program, but theres also something else. You can buy an iphone for 5, 6, 700. We bought this website for what is it about 650 Million Dollars and counting, stuart, it still doesnt work . And its not clear well have anything other than higher deductible and more expensive doctor visits . I think this remains a millstone around the democrats and the president s neck. Charles and president obama said if it takes the rest of his term to get this straight. He seems to have come to some sort of realization, realistically its going to take the next three years at minimum to sell this to the american public. Theres something else, hes saying there will be no compromise. There will be no effort to fix with the republicans or even fix with the democrats. Bottom line, this is a stark statement by the president that he is doubling down on a plan that so far has suggested that the evidence suggests its not working. Stuart and are the democrats prepared to go over the cliff for obamacare because the president insists that they go over that cliff . Well, youve heard debby wasserman schultz, the nc chairman says she believes that democrats can run on it. I suspect youll see the three democratic marginals in the south, in the senate, run as far away as possible and i suspect most democrats in marginal races will do the same. Stuart okay. Doug schoen, thank you very much. Youre a democrat arent you . Im a democrat, but im not this kind of a democrat. Stuart youre barely a democrat, the party left you behind. They did sadly. Stuart welcome back. Nice to see you in the center, stuart. Stuart thank you. Question, do companies have a moral obligation to pay above market wages, a moral obligation . After the break, father Jonathan Morris responds to this. Youre going to give us the emotional side of the story, people need 15 to live on, theyre starving, okay, ive got that. I want to ask you about the economics of it. [ male announcer ] if we could see energy. What would we see . The billions of gallons of fuel that get us to work.

But Abercrombie Fitch they are down a buck right now because abercrombies chief executive will stay on. Investors dont particularly care for that. Its down a buck at 33. Did the daily show ever rake me over the coals last week . Roll it. Youre going to give us the emotional side of the story, people need 15 per hour to live on. Theyre starving without it. Okay, ive got that. I want to ask you about the economics of it. [laughter] thats the type of statement thats usually followed by a visit by a dead Business Partner and the ghost of christmas past, present and future. All right, all right. Weve heard the argument that you need it to feed your family, fine. Ive got that. [laughte [laughter]. Lets hear the argument treating it as though youre not human. Stuart it was funny. Ive got to say its funny. So lets bring in father Jonathan Morris. All right, father. Youre not going to win an argument with jon stewart, as a comedian, he doesnt have to deal in truth. And as a statement. Stuart now, is there a moral obligation to pay more for a job, more in wages than the market dictates should be paid . Is there a moral obligation to pay above market wage rates. Which market . What about the market in bangladesh and paying the workers about a dollar a day. Stuart no, the markets in the u. S. Thats an important point. Society has a responsibility to create opportunity so that every citizen willing to work and work hard can make a good living. Thats what society has a response and the government has a responsibility to step into the market and regulate the market when people are being cheated, thats the principle. Stuart so you approve in principle of the government legislating wages . Whats the minimum wage all about. Of course the government. So you approve. The minimum wage. But should the government say, anybody at mcdonalds should be making a living the rest of their life . I worked for 6 an hour in college and thats a stepping stone. Stuart but you are accepting the principle that the government will dictate wage rates because remember, in the banking and insurance industries, the government dictates maximum wages, okay . Youre in favor of this . You think its a political question . You know, its like what we saw when pope francis put out the document which he said, basically he criticized unbridled, the unbridled market, free market, that there needs to be some sort of regulation. Why . Because human beings who, if they have the power, will take advantage and make a lot of money in an unfair way and thats why although im a total supporter of the free market, of course, there needs to be regulation and when we see the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer like we see right now in the u. S. , theres a problem. Stuart wait a second, when i was in my 30s, in the mid 1970s, i went to live and work in hong kong. Hong kong in those days was a british colony for heaven sake, no politics, no legislattre involved whatsoever, just free market capitalism. Ive never seen such a Dynamic Society where all boats were lifted, big time. That was unfettered, free market capitalism. The government wouldnt dream of saying, youve got to pay soandso this amount of money. Unfettered, no regulation whatsoever in anything . There was regulation of some minor elements, but certainly not deck dictating wage rates. I would be wholly afraid if the federal government were to come in and say the wage is now 15. Stuart charles, hold on a second ive got to get to another clip involving now youre going to get both ways here. And jon stewart did not stop at the minimum wage he moved on from there. Roll the next clip. Who says you cant serve both god and money . Who would say such a thing . Well, father jonathan . Who says you cant serve god and money, what does that mean . Well, what it means is that if you have money, right, or profit as the number one, the number one driving force in your life, then your priorities are messed up and or i think in relationship to this conversation, if you have as a company the one regulating principle is to make the most money possible and not care about being fair, then also, youve got some serious problems. Stuart hold on a second, charles. You and i are very similar because i think both of us go for the money, we pursue profit do we not. Charles right. Stuart were both christians and dont exclude our spiritual lives from the driving force in our lives. How do you answer that . Charles and i pursue money vigorously, are we wrong . Absolutely not, but there are ways to do it and there are ways not to do it. Stuart yeah, you work hard and you look at the bottom line and you do what is profitable. And you do it in a moral and ethical way. Charles i wanted to ask, you know. If you disagree with that youre going to be all over jon stewart this week. Stuart will be anyway. Charles where is the moral obligation for the person on minimum wage . In other words, the person that puts themselves in the position they were a poor student, they dropped out, they smoked weed every day and woman has three kids from three different father, where is their moral obligation, how can they can abuse every aspect of morality and somehow society must make it up to them. I believe they absolutely have a moral responsibility and thats why, i dont think its a good idea for the federal government to say 15 to do a simple job. Stuart why do i have a moral obligation to pay those people that money . Why do, where is the moral obligation to pay people who will not help themselves as charles points out . I think that jesus also said he who did not work shall not eat so i think youre exactly right. Its not all black and white. Theres got to be some, a certain recognizance reclation that makes sure, in the United States, its not extremes, but we have to make sure that people are getting something fair for the work that they do. Stuart father jonathan first appeared on this program he was had a parish in downtown manhattan, dont you . Now you are at Columbia University. Thats right. Stuart not quite an academic, but in columbia. The ministry. I think its rubbed off on you. Oh. Stuart its rubbed off big time. You need to come up and visit sometime. Stuart me . What kind of reception would i get in Columbia University . If charles and i walked in there . A lot of good people there. Stuart i shudder. Father jonathan, youre okay and still okay.

Adam anchorman 2 is out next wednesday but a lot of people are talking about the movie because of the brilliant Marketing Campaign that has produced from commercials to ice cream, even scotch, this movie is likely to be a hit, and we have with us in the spotlight in the fox light, michael samara. Ive never seen a Marketing Campaign for movie like this. In their operating terms of social media on an unprecedented level, feeding original content across facebook, twitter, on tumbler in a way that has never been done before. Stuart do you think it will be a success . Yes. The first time youre talking what made 85 million. Pretty good mystically oversee the made 5 million. It doesnt have a huge hurdle. Stuart but, to spend all of this money, it costs a lot of money. You have raised the bar to be a success and have a successful Marketing Campaign to have her bring what, 200 million . At least. At least. Especially overseas. Will ferrell, everybody likes him. Revolutionizing the way that you market a movie. Which makes me nervous. You have to hedge it a little bit. Stuart do you think this technique of marketing across all platforms, doesnt migrate to other products like spark plugs or something . It could. A little less expensive than the Traditional Market for sure, that is one of the reasons they are doing it. Will ferrell has a vested interest in it. His salary is coming on the back end of this movie area did stuart w where giving it away r free. Charles they waited so long to do this. Not only to reintroduce it, but to get it to a younger audience. My son saw the movie. He told me he loves it, so maybe it is getting down to get the younger audience to watch it as well. After 10 years bringing a new audience in, it is a very crowded next couple of weeks for movies. They have roque and through the clutter, which is the goal of all the marketers. Stuart you are a marketer, that is what you do. You think this Cross Platform marketing using social media is the way of the future. We will see on december 17 when this movie opens up. If it is brilliant or too smart by half. Stuart i will go and see it. Will you, charles which mark charles yes. One of the few movies everybody in the house wants to see. My son, my wife, i want to see it, that is rare. Stuart no violence, critique, something for everyone. Thanks very much, indeed, sir. Thank you for having me.

It will feature an ipad holder as well as free apps that will develop tracking skills. Here is new mom sandra smith in chicago to get her take on it. Would you use this seat . Sandra no, absolutely not. I have spent a large part of my time trying to keep it out of her sight because all she wants to do is grab after it. I find this borderline this disturbing. They are so tempted to do anything to distract their child for just a little bit of spare time for themselves to do something, the worry is this could become a crutch and the most important thing for an infant at this age 20 American Pediatric Association is that they see faces, hear voices, touch objects. There are some huge concern about babies developing their motor skills if theyre working with something so twodimensional like an ipad. It is borderline scary or even putting some electives on the market. Stuart any time i a baby in a car seat i have one objective, that is to get them to sleep. I am sure you have done that, everybody has, right . Sandra of course. You talk to them. Direct with them, that is the biggest fear here is they lose the humor Human Interaction which is so important for babies under the age of two to develop those skills. Stuart a new congressional inquiry showing lawenforcement officials made more than 9000 requests last year for cell phone information. And the use cell phone towers that were not in fact cell phone towers. They were using suitcase sized devices that trick all nearby phones into connecting to that suitcase and feeding the data to the police. It is legal. All rise, the judge is here. Surely it is not legal, it is government surveillance a warrant. More importantly without even suspicion of the people upon whom they are engaging under surveillance. The government argues once i pick up the phone and talk to you, say were having a conversation between our cell phones that we have no expectation of privacy, because i know my words are going to go through one tower to another tower to a server 23rd tower and to you i expect the people in those towers can listen. I dont. I spent it only goes to the towers in order to reach you. The conversation is only intended for you. Not intended for the government. Stuart legality is what is an expectation of privacy. The constitution requires, remember, this is not the phone company listening to you. You can change phone companies, this is the government, which you cannot escape. For the government to listen to you to investigate you or for a benign purpose it needs some sort of suspicion that you are doing something wrong. The government is not constitutionally equipped to gather information about people in the expectation there is something wrong. It has no of something wrong first. Stuart it is not listening in on the conversation. It is ca caption the conversation, retain a conversation, worse than listening to it in realtime. Stuart it would direct the calls to the police force and they can actually listen into the call. If you or i purchase such a suitcase in new jersey, we would violate state and federal Law Violation of privacy. I argue the police without a warrant to the same thing. Stuart i understand where you are coming from. In large part im sympathetic to your view by cant understand why does the Obama Administration which poured george bush over the coals for this kind of thing are actively doing this. Were not talking about the nsa. Guess where the money is coming from for local governments to buy these suitcases. The cost 400,000 each because of the level of sophisticated equipment from there. It comes from federal stimulus money. I thought it was a post is to relate the economy, not to relate the government. Stuart that is appalling. Local cops do it in the of Public Safety. You can justify just what anything in the name of Public Safety if you dont care about the constitution. Stuart i am speechless. Im speechless that we agree. Thank you very much, indeed.

In fact, weve invested over 55 billion here in the last five years making bp americas Largest Energy investor. Our commitment has never been stronger. Stuart msnbc host went on a rant about the racial overtones the name obamacare carries. Listen to what she said. I want to talk today about a controversial word. A word that has been with us for years, and like it or not it is printed in the pages of american history. A word originally intended as a derogatory term meant to shame and divide and demean, the word was conceived of the group of wealthy white men who knew their way to put themselves above and apart from a black man to render him inferior and o unequal and diminish his accomplishments. President obama has been labeled with this word by his opponents, you all know the word i am talking about, obamacare. That is right, i set it im not ashamed to neither is president obama. Stuart well, charles. Charles if you didnt tell me that was saturday night live, i am thinking the nword, there are a few words out there im thinking of. The president himself that he was proud of obamacare. He said he liked the moniker at one point. That had lit up. This dictation is it wouldve been the amazing thing in the world. This is a problem, there is racism in the country, but this kind of stuff hurts legitimate arguments, this is the most ridiculous thing i have heard in a long time. I honestly did think it was a skit. First time i saw it, but just watching it thinking it has to be saturday night live. Stuart i thought here comes something nasty, but obamacare . Charles for some reason he cannot be ridiculed, he cannot be the object of satire. When i saw pictures of george bush as a chimpanzee drawn all the time in newspapers and he was dumb and stupid, you cannot have double standards. Stuart your take on the morality of money, father jonathan and jon stewart after this. Hi honey, did you get e toaster cozy . Yep. Got all the cozies.

Simple, flat rate shipping with the reliability of fedex. Stuart earlier today charles and i spoke with father Jonathan Morris about whether or not employers have a moral obligation to pay their employees more than what the market dictates. Heres what you you had to say. Pay for what your skill level is, flipping burgers deserves minimumwage it is not a clear job. Phil says employers should pay their employees what they are budgeted to pay them cut his idea that businesses are in him vent fountain of cash for which employees and the government may drink is pure fantasy. Michael says a person should be paid to plan his job skills and what he can bring to the company. He deserves to be paid by his work ethic and how he conducts himself with his ability in dealing with others. I agree with all the above, any disagreement . Charles minimumwage deserves it to the themselves. You can take it all on course, people can change their lives coming ideas on how the government owes it to you or private enterprises not.
