tv   MONEY With Melissa Francis  FOX Business  October 24, 2013 12:00am-1:01am EDT

12:00 am
neil: number is a truncated version but that will do it. we will continue to monitor the fallout with the president wh melissa now. david: we'll be watching. >> let's see what is going on in washington. they're still having a lot of trouble with obamacare [laughter] first the website is all screwed up. that has a bunch of glitches. now people are getting busy signal when they try to apply over the phone for obamacare. so you can't use internet. you can't use the phone. and now fax machines are like, look who has come crawling back to mr. fax machine. [cheers and applause] melissa: that sounds about right. i'm melissa francis and is what's money tonight. crisis management, government style, the president and white house trying to get out in front of the big sale. but from a business standpoint, you are watching what not to do. we've got the scoop on exactly how to avoid a company
12:01 am
embarassment. there is a lesson in all this, come on. from big blonder to outright lying. in surprising admission, ficials at george washington university saying the school didn't specifically admit students that needed financial aid, all to use the money from full fare students to build a super dorm, a super dorm! isn't that their right though? we have a money talking panel all fired up ready to go. "who made money today." they have suffered more than a few night theirs but they're living the dream today. -- nightmares. watch to find out who it is even whether they say it is not it is always about money. melissa: drill, baby, drill. saudi arabia as the world's top oil and natural gas producer. but alaska, not exactly celebrating. fox news's dan springer is in
12:02 am
anchorage to explain why. dan, why is oil production failing in alaska? it is booming everywhere else? >> yeah, that's right right. that is a real source of frustration around here. part of it is nature. they have been at thatting oil along the northern slope of alaska since the 1970s. very easy to get, light crude oil, most of that already has been gotten but there is still billions more oil up here. it is just a matter trying to get to it. alaskans are in full panic mode as we watch the lower 48 production boom at a time when they are in a long steady decline. they're the fourth largest oil producer. they slipped hyped texas, north dakota and california. production peaked in 1988 at 2.1 million barrels a day. now it is down to 526,000 barrels a day. republicans in the state put most of the blame on alaska's high production tax. when prices are high on oil like they have been last couple years
12:03 am
the company's tax rate is 75%, much higher than in other oil-producing states. so the republican governor, sean parnell, pushed through a huge tax-cut package that will cost the state around $500 million a year in hopes it will lead to more development. >> this tax change will drive billions more in investment, create more opportunities, for our citizens and for america too. >> yes, but critics call it a pure giveaway to the oil companies that are still making billions of dollar a year here in alaska. alaska has no income tax. it has no sales tax. it gets about 85% of the its general fund from oil revenue, paying for everything from roads to schools, to public safety. a citizens group quickly gathered enough signatures to put a referendum on the tax cut on next year's ballot. >> keeping a fair oil tax on the
12:04 am
books was part of building a strong alaska. the concern with sb-21 it was to more oil company investment in the state. >> so it's a big gamble that they're doing here. $500 million a year is a big hit. of how important is the oil money, oil revenue to this state? well the legislature has been spending money like drunken sailors last five or six years with the high oil prices. they have been able to put $5 billion a way in a reserve fund. on top of the $45 billion permanent fund which is directly funneled and funded by oil companies. that allowed to the state to pay each alaskan, oh, $900 a year in the way of a check from the permanent fund. a lot of money at stake here, oil, very, very important to the state's economy. melissa: no question. dan, thank you so much. >> 25-year-old man in new york arrested for trying to join al qaeda. this is amazing part.
12:05 am
it was easier to join al qaeda using their website than it was to sign up for obamacare. melissa: almost too easy. nervous executives flocking to the white house, a crisis-fixer enlisted to clean up an epic mess. nfl team taking taxpayer money to push the president's agenda? plot points from episode of "scandal"? no the latest effort for the white house to go full-on damage control in the obamacare rollout. things are desperate for a colorado-based group to release this ad. lack of health insurance to doing a keg stand. kick stand. are we ready for obamacare? bruce turkel is back, our marketing guru. wow, hard to know where to start with all things. we say broama kiar. in the ad they do the keg stand, got insurance, bro-insurance.
12:06 am
in theory trying to make it cool to get insurance although i'm not sure any of these three guys -- what is the point of this ad? is it working? you're the marketing guru and i am befuddled by this. >> this private insurance companies say there are opportunities, you can't count on being young, being healthy, drinking a lot of beer as your health care plan. looks to me like they're trying to go after the invincibles that the government is saying they need in order to big a significant and robust insurance critical mass. melissa: it is colorado consumer health initiative in progress now, colorado education have joined together to put this ad out. is it effective? and is this, you know whether or not the obama administration paid for this ad directly or indirectly, does it make sense to be promoting this to younger people right now when you can't even get on the website and sign up anyway? >> no. and that is the biggest problem.
12:07 am
when you're creating any kind of marketing, you cast where the fish are swimming. if you're going after young consumers, speak to young consumers in a language they understand. stupid pun about broama, people doing handstands on kegs that doesn't ring true to anybody. the distribution vehicle, now in this case, 800 numbers will not work with the audience they're looking at. this audience lives their entire life online, on mobile. they're used to instant gratification. they are not going to wait while the system gets up and running. it will not work. melissa: in your best-case scenario you're trying to send them to a website which by the way doesn't work out there. there are reports that the baltimore ravens accepted $130,000 in taxpayer money to go out to promote obamacare. what kind of message does this send when, once again you have a website not up and working. there are serious problems but out paying proathletes who don't
12:08 am
need money with taxpayer dollars to go out and you know, peddle this -- >> we're confuseing a couple different issues here. melissa: okay. >> first of all we have to separate from a marketing point of view the distribution vehicle which is the website, from the product itself, which is the insurance plan. melissa: why do we have to separate that? because the president would like us to separate it but if you're somebody out there trying to ge the insurance, youan't separate it from the website? >> as far as what works and what doesn't work. what we know is that the distribution vehicle does not work. so these other vehicles we're talking about, advertising, or doing tie-ins with football players whoever, that is completely different part that is the markets message. the problem you pointed out and you're absolutely correct, if the marketing message gets people to want to pursue the product and the distribution vehicle, the website does not work, you have a big, big problem. if ultimately the product does work or doesn't work, we don't even know yet because you can't get to it. so that is really where the
12:09 am
marketing dollars are not making sense. you're sending people to something that will make them a bad experience. you know the old saying you can never get a second chance at a first impression. so people show up. it doesn't work. they're not rushing back. i don't care why they came. melissa: we're a show about money. we're looking at this from a business perspective. you're our marketing guru. putting crisis management hat on, health care executives going to the white house to have a crisis meeting. the top health care executives arrive at the white house. the meeting wasn't scheduled with the president. it is not on his agenda. how much does that achieve and then, what does it look like? i mean those are sort of two separate questions. what are your thoughts about that? >> look at strategy what they're doing. look as president ceo of this large organization. ceo came out and said this is not working. nobody is more angry than i am. he did exactly what he should have done at that point, which was show that the top is
12:10 am
concerned and that the top guy is going to make sure that it happens. now truth be told, he has to step out of the picture because he can't fix it. he can yell and scream. point fingers, demand that it gets fixed. time for the professionals, programmers and other people involved to get it fixed. he doesn't want to sully his personal brand with the day in, day out. that might not be leadership technique but branding and marketing technique. he need to separate t step aside. melissa: bruce, always great. >> thank you, melissa. melissa: next on "money," gw would offer up a degree, in lying. officials caught up in financial aid scandal but is it really so wrong? it is our money talker today. lots of controversy. three stars of real estate r listing are back. they brought the best ways to make a buck in the business, more "money" coming up. when we made our commitment to the gulf, bp had two big goals: help the gulf recover and learn from what happened
12:11 am
so we could be a better, safer energy company. i can tell you - safety is at the heart of everything we do. we've added cutting-edge technology, like a new deepwater well cap and a state-of-the-art monitoring center, whe experts watch over all drilling activity twenty-four-seven. and we're sharing what we've learned, so we can all produce energy more safely. our commitment has never been stronger.
12:12 am
12:13 am
melissa: george washington university getting major heat for reportedly turning a blind eye when it comes to being need blind. the school claimed to leave financial aid out of the equation. now it admits it weight listed
12:14 am
students who would need financial assistance, opting instead to pick more well-endowed students. our money talker panel are up in arms. recoend my spencer. fox business's charles payne and david asman. i will throw it out there, are you shocked by this. >> i'm not shocked at all. melissa: they lied! >> that they are making business decisions based on money is not surprising. what is surprising saying they are not doing it when clearly they were. >> liberal elites do it all the time. they're as money conscious as any capitalist but don't want to admit it. >> that is the whole thing with me. >> they're hypocrites. >> we see it on wall street and permeates university. we care, we want to help. no you don't. in fact here is the irony according to the piece. they give breaks to rich kids. so what you're talking about is, with the federal government pumping out all the college loans, deep back though the
12:15 am
regular tax paying public is subsidizing rich kids to go to george washington university while they say we want to help you. >> people buying fiskar cars too and such. melissa: totally different subject. don't want to get you off base. when we're talking, the whole point of financial aid, this goes back to the idea this is one way to level the playing field. >> operative word, aid. melissa: wait. we want people out there working hard. we want them to have education and go out and support themselves and not earn minimum wage. you say get the skills. that's why financial aid is out there. >> there is nothing wrong with charging for services. somehow everything is becoming enlightment. >> this is not entitlement. >> but that is what they're employing. >> we'll only only educate the wealthy. we'll only educate those who earn this much money. we'll give everybody an opportunity. that is why we financial aid. melissa: comes down to buying degree though. if you look who can pay for it who can't, you pay for it, you can come buy the degree, if you can't, no. >> it is more than that.
12:16 am
listen, other kids who don't have wherewithal, may have access to loans and whatever, what it comes down to, david, in addition to the money part the elitism part. there's a serious elism aspect to this story. melissa: what is it? >> these colleges are fighting over smartest kids who typically come from families where they had tutors. they come from rich families and fighting for them and offering rich kids the biggest discount. melissa: you know why? >> want to know why? melissa: rich kids or smart ones? >> rich ones because they have the greatest chance of giving money back to the school after they graduate. where does the school, any school get most of their money from? contributions from alumni. melissa: they're supposed to be non-profit institutions. >> please, please. melissa: for better good. >> look how big the endowment is. we're talking schools with endowments of 10 of billions of dollars. harvard's bigger than gw. >> 4 billion. >> huge. the question what are they using money for? using it to provide free
12:17 am
scholarships? >> no. beautiful campuses but paying professors -- melissa: sports teams. >> paying professors like elizabeth warren 300,000 dal for teaching one course. melissa: they're using $130 million to build a super dorm. new facility on campus. if super dorm is really super this is how you attract more students and more dollars. they're out for profit. the problem they were lifing about it for so long and misleading people. if you say you need financial aid, we will give you the same treatment as if you didn't. we're not looking at that. don't worry about it. now kids who wrote, yeah i might need help feel betrayed. maybe you said no, i don't need help and quietly gotten loans or borrowed from family or gotten money from somewhere else. >> or you might have went out for, thinking george washington they have got this program and i might get in and you wait and wait and wait. >> that is important because people are submitting these applications with very expensive fees. 2, $300 per applicant. if they knew that they might be
12:18 am
wait listed by saying they needed financial aid they might not pay the application fee. melissa: other side of this story as well, and that is about the high price of education and is it even worth it? there is room for a school to come in at a discount and swoop up a lot of students. >> they have been doing it by the way. they have been doing it. >> first things. did you see apollo group, for-profit, number one percentage gainer in the stock market today, up huge. i think people are saying. david: you know what is it a good buy? >> i think might be. here the thing, obama at administration rather get degree from phoenix online and not be in complete debt. >> don't get off number one yet, i paid $60,000 a year for my daughter at boston college, hugely expensive. if she get as degree in psychology do you think she will get compensation for that? i don't think so. melissa: top 10 years out there still only working for minimum wage, gone up 75% in the past 10 years. number of college grads out there working for minimum wage.
12:19 am
>> after paying 60 grand a year. >> i went to boston college. i will promote boston college. that is well-deserved degree. >> not always. >> before we have everyone dropping out yesterday came out the jobs number. people with college degrees less than 3%. less than high school, up 12%. distinct difference. melissa: there is difference? >> i think so. melissa: choose wisely. >> colleges stop lying. stop lying. melissa: thank you. very spirited group there. coming up on "money," the boys are back. that's right, we're getting into the business of real estate with those in the know. stars of bravo's "mill dollar listing." surprise, john stossel is fed up. he is not happy fellow americans don't know what the fed is and hitting the streets to prove it. more money straight ahead. >> the what? >> the fed. >> i don't know.

12:25 am
houses. >> yeah. >> could cost north of 5, $7,000. melissa: that is money out of your pocket you're spending to show a client's house? >> price to pay when you sell the big ticket properties. >> people don't realize that. let's talk about selling big ticket properties. one that is famous. i know you're l.a. twice. here in new york there is lot of focus on bernie madoff's old new york city apartment. someone else opened it in the interim and they're trying to flip it for 17.2 million. >> toy guy owned it. he is flipping it paid 8 which was a pretty good deal because he bought it from the government. it is a minus location. it's a good location, great location. he got a good deal on 8. probably fluffed it up. probably not worth 17. probably worth 13, 14. >> sorry, what is great about that -- >> terrace. >> he will get all the attention because of the property and owner from before. so you get that free exposure. >> not buying it from the madoff estate.
12:26 am
melissa: you don't think it is tainted? >> tainted is charles manson property when you buy something like that. that is tainted. >> wait, i challenge you. could you turn that into a positive? >> you change the address of the property. melissa: seriously, aren't there freaks out there that want to own a property like that? >> great. pull them on in. >> like a piece of art. really sums up what is going on in the market right now. people who bought two or three years ago are putting their houses back on the market even if they're not sure they want to sell because the market is so far up. melissa: you're familiar with this property. >> very familiar with it. melissa: what would you do to sell it? >> i don't know what he did to it. i know what it looked like before. probably has built in '84, '85. it was kind of dated. two-story penthouse. phenomenal terraces. melissa: not a lost bedrooms. >> two or three bedrooms. melissa: for 17.25 million. maybe your number one advice is cut the price? >> maybe add bedrooms. >> neighbor is matt lauer, might be worth it, right?
