When we look through the lens of health 1 of 3 kids is obese or overweight. When we take the collective impact of each of those disparity points, what we see is indeed a generation of young people who are in crisis and there is a cost associated with that crisis, a cost that totals into the more than 150 billion that we estimate it will cost this nation when young people dont graduate.

Are they right or wrong. Hi everybody, welcome to forbes on fox. Lets go in focus with mr. Steve forbes rich carlguard, carey sheffield, john tandy and bruce jackson. Rich what do you make of these lotto comments of the president . If he had said everything he said but left out the word lottery, it would have sounded like pope francis. I mean it would have been a good liberal pitch for successful people to pitch in.
