you do that because no one in history has ever been stupid enough too try it. it's going to be years before he really understand the consequences of all this, our governments or reckless coronavirus policy. han in the meantime we can say with total confidence that the american economy is getting very weird. not all of it. some of what we are seeing isn't weird in the i slightest. it was entirely predictable. if you create trillions of u.s. dollars out of nothing, u.s. dollars are going to be worth less. much less. this is called inflation. we are suffering through it right now. inflation very simply as a result of too much money in the system. if you have too much something, its value falls? supply and demand, remember? this is what's causing the rise in real estate prices and bitcoin and other assets investors want to when they no longer trust the country's currency. why can't you afford a house right now?. simple. washington printed too much money. no one should be surprised by this. the cycle is as old as money itself. political leaders devalue the currency for short-term game. in the end, this leads to l long-term collapse. debasing the coinage, that's what they used it to call it. by the middle of the third century, the roman dinarius, the silver coin was 2% silver. the rest of it was junk. the entire roman empire blew up and the barbarians took over. it wasn't just the romans who did this. every government devalues its currency at some point. they do it because of the irresistible. you can't not do it. if you do it you get free money don't have t to raise taxes. seems like a good idea but in the end every government pays the price for doing this. more precisely its citizens do. the current inflation, horrible as it is, hardly unexcited. you have to be a fed chairman not to have seen it coming. what's confusing as hell is our labor market. the underpaymentng rate is highr than it was before covid. not a ton but some.or that means fewer people have jobs that did two years ago. blabor force participation, slightly different measurement, its way down and that means your people are working or even looking fore jobs. so that's the picture on one side of the labor market. and yet, this is the truly bizarre part, we are simultaneously experiencing a serious labor shortage.za we have a shortage of labor and neglect of labor simultaneously. in some places, businesses have shut down because they can't find employees, as you well know if you live here. so again at the very same moment, we have both too many workers and also to fewer workers. that does not make sense. how can that possibly be happening? and again, we are going to be honest and tell you we are not entirely sure how it's happening. no one is entirely sure. but we can tell you it's definitely not natural. this is not how markets are supposed to work. this is not a good sign. if you are running the country and you would be responsible person, you'd be concerned about a trend like this but the leaders don't seem especially concerned. a professor of economics at michigan state university, cook has advised joe biden's economic possibly. she is considered a shoo-in for an appointment to the federal reserve board. lisa cook will be one of the people in charge with fixing the mess. how is she going to do? the early sides are not especially promising. not long ago cook and other faculty members at michigan state got an email from their school. "all residential dining halls could use your help." it turns out food service staff weren't showingtama up to work. partly because of the economic policies that the weight has had enacted on the advice of lisa cook. as a result of that the cafeterias desperately needed faculty to pitch in and help to feed people. a the most basic job of all. and yet as far as we know, lisa cook despite her perfectly suited last name, did not help. she stayed home. in case you think we are sing going out lisa cook, to be fair, a lot of people are staying home these days. they're not pitching in. the number of americans who have jobs has dropped by nearly 5 million people since february of last year. none of these people according to the government assessment is looking for a new job. why? lots of reasons. some of them have retired. others have moved on to work it's difficult for the government to keep track of. not always a bad thing. if you have left a soul crushing job at citibank to tend an organic apple orchard, it's kind of hard to see how that is a net loss for society. we should be celebrating. good for you. the problem is with all the rest. some large percentage of able-bodied americans have just decided to stop working at all. now in the long run, this is a big change. it's not good for the national character, for example. healthy societies value work. they believel it confers dignity and meaning. but in the short term as an economic matter, it's killing small businesses. seeker there is a driver shortage in this country and it's not just hitting transporting goods. school bus drivers are in short supply too. >> and the manager works the register. to cover short staffing, a fact of life in so many businesses.th >> some walgreens pharmacy drive-thru is like this one in green bay i've been blocked off recently. signs posted on the window say they don't have enough staff. >> certain job sectors like retail, restaurants and hospitality are understaffed. no matter how you slice it. >> the government has incentivized people not to work, so it's really tough to get people to work and once they are here, to stand for more than six months. >> tucker: why is this happening question again, the are everywhere. there is no room service and your hotel, in case you haven't noticed and that is the least of it. one of the reasons this is happening is because government put out some really destructive policies. here is bill kane to explain. >> this is kathy. this is the sign you had up frontis and we came in. we are short staffed. please be patient with the staff who did show up. no one wants to work. they would rather draw on employment. >> that's true, that so true. i'm so tired of all of it. quit giving all this unemployment.ru they are getting unemployment. they are getting stimulus. why work. they make a lot of money. they are quitting just so they can get on employment. >> tucker: so you never hear anybody on tv say that but if you're around people with what we used to call working-class jobs, you hear it all the time. you hear it a lot. people are mad about it. at the international house of pancakes in wasilla, alaska, it's not always possible to get pigs in a blanket. here's the message. due tonk the fact that biden gae out way too much free money and nobody wants to work anymore we are forced to reduce our hours during thehe week. so there is some truth in this. at times over the past two years, some people were making much more in government unemployment benefits and they had been making in the jobs that they left. one analysis found that thanks to the so-called cares act, restaurant workers nearly doubled their weekly pay when they became unemployed. the government was literally making it more lucrative for people not to work and stay at home. that's the definition of insanity. not only do policies like that wreck our economy in close ihop, there is an obvious moral cost, what is the message the government is sending? the messages sending that you would have to be an idiot work. you've got to wonder what damage that message has done to the country's attitudes about work. here is one measure of the damage potentially. supplemental unemployment benefits ended this fall. they were so clearly nuts. yet a lot of people didn't go back to work. in fact even more americans quit their jobs. one poll found 73% of americans are thinking about quittingol right now. again, this isn't all bad. it's complex and we want to be honest. some jobs aren't worth having peer we wish people would quit. it would great to see a mass exodus of diversity officers. they can do tile work. we hope they will. and we must be honest, people who do want to work, it's a shrinking number. there's good news for them. wages are up dramatically. pretty clearly at the bottom end. some fast food workers are making 18 bucks an hour plus signing bonuses and that seems like something to celebrate but of course no one in washington is celebrating. it's a victory for americans don't have college degrees and that's a defeat for them so in washington they are thinking of ways to use mass immigration to shaft workers out of their gains. immigrants could fix u.s. labor shortage read a recent headline. the head of domino's pizza agrees. he would like to pay his employees lesson he would like to use newly imported foreign workers. how does the white house feel? biden is on board. he wants democratic voters from foreign countries. what you are looking at is the perfect alignmentn of malignant motives. expect the borders to stay open. when nowh one in washington is thinking about and what we should all be thinking about is why is this happening in the first place. why are fewer people choosing to work?n and have been for a long time by the way. this is not a new trend. our labor markets have been getting sicker for generations. this is one measure. this shows the labor force participation rate of american men. it goes back to 1950. what do you notice, the line goes straight down. this is the labor force participation rate of women in america. that line moves in the opposite direction. as you can tell for 70 years we've been losing men in the workforce. many call this progress on the assumption that anything is bad and degrading for men must be good for america but it is not progress. it's a problem. the average man defines himself by his job. men and women are very different, extremely different. society is builtlt on their differences.ly every society is in the thing about men as they kind of need to work. they tend m to fall apart when they are unemployed. not all of them do but enough of them do that we should be worried only see trends like this. but leaders aren't worried. heedless of the consequences, they use covid to accelerate the trend. here's one example. who is hurt most by vaccine mandates? the group least likely to get vaccinated, working-class men. what percentage of "new york times" reporters have obeyed joe biden had been injected with the vaccine? probablyly around 100%. among men who work in oil fields the number is closer to 10%. a massive difference. massive disparate effect. like a lot in american life, there's actually a class war in progress here. just beneath the surface. when you fire people for not taking an injection by the way doesn't work, you're not hurting the private equity people. you're hurting blue-collar people.otio maybe that's why they are doing it. either way, here is the core. the incentives that we have constructed in this country over a long period of time. accelerating recently have a very specific effect. those policies reward people who don't want a job and they punish people who do want a job. what they do is they degrade work. they strip it of its inherent meaning and that's a problem in a country that's running out of things that have inherent meaning. they are telling you that your religion means nothing, your patriotism means nothing, your family means nothing. now they are telling you your work means nothing. what does mean anything on how long can a society continue them doesn't have meaning? and that doesn't revere your work. there's probably no one atly a better position to answer that question than micro. mike rowe was and is now once again the host of the acclaimed show "dirty jobs." started a very successful foundation whose job it is to match willing workers with skilled work. mike, thanks for coming on. the surf is super complicated and i hope that we didn't simplify it to the extent that we have distorted what's happening. there's a lot of that no one understands but if you step back you see the government disincentivizing work, incentivizing idleness, sending a message there is no dignity and work and no meaning and why bother and what effect does that have? the effect was encapsulated perfectly and everything that you just said. not to blow smoke or show too much of my own bias. that's the greatest monologue i've heard you do. this is no longer a matter of a skills gap or a few million people unemployed and employers frustrated because of the mismatching skills. this is a matter of national security i think because i think it goes right to our identity as a people. when i started that foundation, mike rowe works, 13 years ago on labor day we had record high unemployment. every morning i woke up. i wasio shooting "dirty jobs" ad i would look at the headlines in the paper and it was always a click up. 8%, 8.5, 9. everywhere he went on "dirty jobs" we saw help-wanted signs. it became obvious something else was happening in the country. there was some other alternative narrative going on regarding opportunity.ry the point is that was 13 years ago and there were 2.3 million open positions. today it's 11 million. 11 million. 12 million people quit their jobs in the fall. so your right to wonder what is going on and is there an explanation that goes beyond money? the answer is yeah. it's our whole relationship with work. so look, it feels very political because everything today is very political. the skills gap shouldn't be. one quick point, all of my buddies on the left tell me that the reason for all this opportunity is because employers are fundamentally rapacious and greedy. all of my buddies on the right tell me all of this opportunity is a function of workers being universally lazy and shiftless. they are both painting with too broad a brush. the answers as you said are bit more complicated. >> tucker: i think that's exactly right but at the heart it's the question of national character. is this a country that respects cbor? i don't mean organized labor. maybe that too but the act of labor, creating something that didn't exist before. >> l part of the fault in our stars is that we come to resent the very things we rely upon so when the power goes out forso three or four days up here where i live, people shake their fists at the line into because they are frustratedt but the linemen are trying to get the power back on. we don't really respected. in fact skilled labor, all too often reminds the rest of us of what we are fundamentally lacking. the thing that scares me more than anything in the reason i started the foundation when i did was 13 years ago for every five tradesmen that retired two replaced them. this is what abraham lincoln called a terrible arithmetic. if that was the only thing going on today, we would have cause to be concerned. to your earlier point, it's not just the boomers retiring earlier. it's real fear of covid that's been infecting us. it doesn't matter whether the fear is justified or not. it is there. it's real. the class thing that you mentioned, whether it's true or not we have been told that the reason we are unhappy is that our bosses make too much and so forth and so on. b it's a big, complicated mess. >> tucker: it is but we should care. i know youuc do. mike rowe, thank you. >> any time. >> tucker: mike rowe, who was of all things and accomplish opera singer has recorded a new song with john rich called "santa has

shooting of jacob blake. >> witnesses say blake had broken up a fight and he did not appear to be armed. >> they said blake was unarmed, that he was there to break up a fight. >> someone who was trying to break up a fight between two women.n. >> tucker: all of it was a lie. here's what actually happened. officers in kenosha responded to a call of domestic violence. the motherd. of jacob blake's children told the police "he's got my kids. he's got my keys." the officers believed blake was trying to kidnap his own children. blake had a knife and he was wanted for sexual assault. he resisted arrest. officers tried teasing jacob lake but that didn't work. those are the facts. as they emerge, the media narrative crumbled but by that point it was too late. the left was already using nonprofits likeit gofundme to ge cover for logistical support. >> professional agitators is what we call them. they don't care. >> tucker: more than half the people arrested in the riots weren't from kenosha. they were from out of town. first the media blasts false propaganda to incite violence and then the criminals are let loose. nonprofit groups are activated. meanwhile, the state advocates its responsibility to stop the chaos, to enforce order, and then self-defense is framed as murder. the purpose of all this is demoralization and pacification. >> tucker: you can watch the first 4 minutes

prioritized seniors. we have stepped away from mandates. they only have brought division and really increase the politicization of the pandemic. and he has made monoclonal antibodies available. early treatment. the idea that it's message we heard nationally that you should go home and wait if you are high risk and contract coronavirus, it's terrible medical practice and its terrible advice. it resulted in a lot of people dying who didn't need to die. governor desantis led the state in helping create monoclonal antibody sites and encouraging clinicians and people who live in florida to seek therapy.n'ti >> tucker: if you get monoclonal antibodies in the first four or five days, your chances of dying from corona are much reduced, are they not? >> tucker, what you're saying is it's so simple that it's hard to reckon something that is so simple and is true. what you said is absolutely true. with the fact that no other states in the nation have been as proactive and letting their citizens know about the availability of early treatment. you're right. >> tucker: i cannot wait until you run hhs. i will come to your swearing in. doctor, thank you. >> let me add one other thing. to say that even if our cases increase, which we expect that's going to happen around the nation, it does look like the omicron variant is more transmissible. our answer unlike other states is not more restrictions or more mandates. it's really just early treatment. we're going to be making sure that's known blanket or throughout the state. >> tucker: amen. thank you. tagood to see you, doctor. >> thanks, tucker. >> tucker: here's a piece of advice. if you find yourself living in a place where people are still talking about covid nonstop two years and, it's time to move. not just because your neighbors have been brainwashed off easily they have been but because your neighbors are boring. at this point it's simply not an interesting topic for your private life. yes, covidim has killed a lot

committed to going against the natural family unit. men and women raising their biological children which really is the bedrock of any society. that unit gives children a typei of safety and security they need to learn, to love, to explore. we have seen particularly in the community the impact of the disillusion in s many respects f the family over the past 60 years. as i said, people like

this problem.e the left thinks that the biggest issues facing the black community are racism and wealth inequality. that's why their preferred solutions are bigger government and better white people.

it's not a smoking gunng of a conspiracy but i think it could be hiding the evidence that the cia in particular had information that oswald was potentially dangerous,ar might t out, and they didn't do anything monthly for the assassination when he had a job on the route that the president's motorcade was going past. >> tucker: pearl harbor. can i ask, you went through the documents that have been released. what jumped out at you?

she said i tried, he is in his 20s, not respectful. i am 66 years old. what am i going to do? he says i will try talking to him. and sure enough he comes out on the deck and he calls up to them and starts a conversation with him. a respectful conversation. and this young man went off the rails.d "i told your mother she wasn't going to be living here anymore, told her not to disrespect me." he just l exploded at him. he told him right there that this was going to be taken care of. i will be right down. he is no fool. he grew up on the mean streets. he knew what he was dealing with, he knew he was dealing with and gang member. and that gang member was calling for backup. so he did, as far as i'm concerned, what he should have done. he started packing his kids in his car, told his mom to hurry up and pack her dog up -- they were leaving for new york city to visit his grandmother, at his great grandma's house. he grabbed a 9-millimeter his mother kept on the bookshelf hnext to the door for her own self protection because he knew while he was loading things up go sideways and he is a protector. and he has his kids, his fiance, his 66-year-old mother. sure enough, he is putting his kids in the car when they gang member comes downstairs with a giant wooden chair, smashes it, picks up one of the heavy wooden legs. and the front yard is probably 20 feet square and it's down a hill. so three or four steps and this guy is on top of them. and he is coming at him with the club raised. he shot him three times. cleared the chamber, dropped the gun, got in his car, got his kids to safety. they didn't want the additional gang members coming back. then there was a real shoot up d and who knows what happens. he ended up driving back to georgia and getting his kid safe, getting his fiancee safe, checking himself into the veterans administration's hospital because this was a difficult situation, and he called and turned himself in. >> tucker: and they put him in jail on first-degree murder charges. i hope that you will come back. because this is one of those stories that i want to keep tracking because i think it is really important.l he sounds like an amazing man. thank you. >> thank you mr. carlson. >> tucker: we are out of time.
