liz: don't miss this. coming up tomorrow on "after the bell," bob nardelli joins us exclusively at 4:00 p.m. eastern. he is senior advisor at cerberus management and chief executive of chrysler motors w a lot to raise. melissa: a pact to raise minimum wage and prevent businesses bailing. three local councilman in the d.c. area banned to together to force companies to pay more. the logic that everyone vows to raise how much workers make that businesses won't flee to surrounding towns. is it genius or bad business? we have the councilman behind the unusual plan because even when they say it's not, it is always about money. melissa: talk about taking a stand in an effort to soothe the wage rage that is taking the country by storm, three councilman in the d.c. area came

up with an interesting idea. make a pact to raise the minimum wage in all their counties. therefore prevent any businesses from fleeing to less expensive areas. here now are two of the men behind the plan. d.c.'s city council chairman phil mendelsohn and montgomery county councilman mark elrich. there you both are, excellent. thank you both for joining me. chairman, if companies went out and did this would be price fixing, bid rigging. why can counties do this and it is not illegal? >> i don't think that analogy works at all. melissa: why not? what is wrong with it? >> for about 60, 70 years the federal government set minimum wage for the country. three jurisdictions set minimum wage for the region. you can't compare that with price fixing. the fact is that the minimum wage in 1968, if it had kept pace with inflation would be roughly equal to what we agreed to wage the minimum wage too

which is $11.50 over the next several years. this isn't about price fixing this is about public policy and it is about helping roughly, you know, improving the -- melissa: finish with that. helping roughly, because you're taking me to my next question and maybe other councilman wants to take it. we're only talking about lessf . and you're ban banding together and putting a lot of effort behind raising wages for a very small percentage. it makes it feel like gimmicky and political. >> well i don't think that is correct either. the reason is because even though it is a small percentage of workers who get the minimum wage, it does tend to affect what the wage structure is within companies. so more people than that will benefit. melissa: councilman, what do you think? >> we're affecting a range that is bigger than 7.25. part of the problem is, this is all focused on difference between 7.25 and 11.50 but there

is whole range of wages above 7.25 which don't allow people to make a living and put a roof over their heads, feed themselves or meet their basic needs and needs of their families. so, it may be 3% of the people doing 7.25 but the data we had in the county was that it is actually a larger percentage that fall under the rate they're actually going to arrive at. the other thing that you don't account for people who make the least are the largest consumers of government services. i mean we run lots of programs in the county. they're all on sliding scales. melissa: but problem with that logic is that economists from the university of amherst say if you raise the minimum wage you will put half a million people out of work. you say they're biggest consumers government services but if you now force them on to the unemployment lines, because you've raised wage and businesses fire a few people, you're only making those people absorb even more services. what about that? go ahead. >> that research, i'm curious about that because there have been met at that studies done about the effect of raising the

minimum wage and the, it is very clear that there is not a net loss of jobs as a result of raising the minimum wage if we raise -- melissa: i don't think it is very clear. i don't think the university of amherst is known to be conservative think tank. it's a pretty liberal institution. they say employment falls 3% for every 10% increase in labor costs. follows the logic. if you have only so much to spend on labor and raise the price per unit you will have less units overall. just basic math. >> now, but i don't know about that basic math because chamber of commerce for the district of columbia did this study, commissioned a study and that study did not say there would be a loss of jobs. the one thing they couldn't answer whether there would be dislocation of businesses and they concluded there wouldn't be. yes, you could look at individual business and say, well make they would lay off a person. maybe. melissa: yeah. >> but on the macro, there is not a loss of jobs from raising minimum wage.

melissa: yeah we'll have agree to disagree. please continue. >> minimum wage has been stagnant for years. the minimum wage as i said at beginning if it kept the pace with inflation would be $10.77 today across the country. by holding minimum wage down and basically requiring poverty wages we have not produced more jobs. that is not what produced more jobs. that nobody talks about we'll keep the minimum wage down as way of increasing jobs. melissa: let's let councilman elridge. there are business beyond the three borders. you include together and set minimum wage in your area but businesses can go even beyond that. are you worried about that? what has the feedback been like? >> i'm not very worried at all. when you look at sectors involved in the low wage market, they're not sectors that are going to go anywhere. mcdonald's -- melissa: then why collude together in the first place? why get counties together if they're not going to move? >> i think there were some issues because we share really tight borders, you could

literally cross the street be in a different county and not know you're in a different jurisdiction unless somebody told you, there would be ability for somebody literally to cross the street and take ad advantage lower rate. melissa: they could move. you're contradicting the point you made just before that. >> i don't share that kind of border with the other jurisdictions around us. going across the river or going up i-270 or going up route 29 and 95 is way different than crossing georgia avenue. and those businesses are concentrated in basically hospitality services. they're not going anywhere. if you have a hotel and got customers for your hotel, hotel will not walk away from the customers who want to be in the d.c. area. melissa: gentlemen, an interesting plan. we're out of time. thanks for both of you coming on. good luck to you. >> thanks. melissa: fast-food workers around the country are protesting for higher pay some companies in the food industry are rated among the top places to work. what are they doing right? and why are their employees so

happy? texas roadhouse's president is here with their secrets for success. and amazon may have delivered drugs but google has robots -- drones. they are awesome. look at that!? the internet giant owns robots that move like animals, insects like humans. we'll tell you if there is a practical use for any of them. i don't know, look at that. what would you use that for? it might be a gimmick. more "money" coming up.

you. melissa: what does it take to run one of the best companies to work for in the country? glass doors list of the top 50 best companies to work for 2014 is out. there are a few surprises on there like some restaurants and quick service companies making the grade. you might wonder how they do it especially in the midst of the wage wars, right? so texas roadhouse president is here to teach you how to keep employees happy. thanks so much for coming on the show and congratulations. >> well, thank you very much, melissa. good afternoon to you. melissa: you know it is really impressive, glass door for anybody in the audience is

opportunity for employees to go anonymously complain about the place where they work. in order to qualify for this survey the company had to have 1,000 employees and you needed 50 approved reviews on the site which means that they have independently verified that they are different people. so it is pretty hard to even qualify. you guys were in the top 50 along with companies like bain, twitter, eastman, facebook, google. i mean all kind of big companies who ostensibly pay a lot of money. what did you think about this? how do you do it? >> well, we're very proud of it, to say the least t really starts with our founder and ceo kent taylor, when he created the concept almost 20 years ago with a set of ideals. one of those made from scratch food. which our employees are very proud of, great service. one of the big foundations is having fun and we have a lot of fun in our restaurants throughout our company and that is one of the things employees talk about most. they really love working for

texas roadhouse. they have a lot of fun. melissa: i think a lost bosses think their employees are out there having fun or want to believe that and may not be true. your guys in the video definitely look like they're having fun. one of the things i noticed about you guys doing research you have hourly workers who you think would be making minimum wage which is exactly what we all have been debating. you have chosen in a lot of locations to pay i think 15 bucks an hour even where the minimum wage is half that. is that a conscious decision? am i getting the math right? is that part of what is going right for you? >> well the vast majority of our employees, hourly employees, do make more than minimum wage. a lot of them make substantially more than minimum wage as tipped employees. we're one of busiest restaurants in almost every city we're located. it does so much business to give employees a lot of money in tips. melissa: do you try to make sure they're making more than restaurants in the area? is that one of the things you

focus on? >> absolutely. we want to be very, very competitive. certainly when you've got happy employees, that will lead to happy guests. >> what would you do if they raised the minimum wage in your area? you're targeting to keep it above so you can keep your folks happy and retain them, would you have to kick it up another notch? >> we definitely would pay them who are more. we're in 48 states and many of those states today have different minimum wage rate structures. so we're kind of used to dealing with that we don't spend a lot of time worried about minimum wage. we spend more time worrying about the quality of our food and quality of our service and fundamentals of each restaurant. melissa: how do you make sure they're having fun? that is a nice concept in the abstract. they are working. they're carrying food back and forth. they're dealing with hungry and irrational customers. how do you make that fun? >> fortunately a lot of our customers are pretty happy because we do have great food and provide great service and great prices. that help as lot with job

satisfaction. our employees get to wear t-shirts and jeans and they love that. we have contests. we have gift card contests going on. some of our employees might win tvs as an example. we do tons of recognition. melissa: i don't want to run out of time. you have great incentive programs. the managing partner of the year award. you get a ring, a car and $20,000. you have a spouse of the year award. all kinds of different cash gifts and things throughout the year for all your employees to keep them motivated. what is the number one is in take you think other -- number one mistake folks in your businessessare doing with their employees. >> i think they forget the importance of employees in the business. they discontinue a lot of programs making a few extra bucks here and there. they forget how important those things are. as our employees. as goes our concept. melissa: very interesting to me,

scott. your story tells me the market works. by market force you are paying more because it makes sense for your business as opposed to the government telling you must pay more. you have a happy employees as a result. interesting story. thanks for coming on and congratulations to you. >> you're very welcome. thank you. melissa: google is buying up companies that make amazing robots. have you seen these? they now own big dog, cheetah, and wildcat. but what are they planning to do with them? you have got to hear this. why are chinese investors buying up properties by the hundreds? moat town has -- motown has one of the worst economies in the nation. its real estate is on high demand, sight unseen. is detroit becoming one of china's busiest cities? don'tar move. do you ever have too much

melissa: the race for robotics is on. google amping up its game buying robot giant boston dynamics. this marks the tech titans' 8th robotics company acquisition in just the past six months. this news comes on the heels of amazon announcing its future plan for drone deliveries but is this all really the rise of the machines or just a marketing ploy? here now is tech guru ari, and joining us on the phone, marketing maven bruce terkel. let me start with you. these robots are phenominal. they're very cool. what in the world would google use them for? >> for one thing, mapping is huge, because google has mapping overlay. >> need a cheetah to do mapping. >> the robots could be out in the amazon and start mapping. >> stop it. that is the silliest thing i

ever heard. >> how about disaster recovery under rubble. so now the robots could run inside. cheetah, wildcat. i have one at home. i have one in the backyard somewhere. melissa: you have the bobcat? that is fabulous. bruce, we're having problems with video. that is why you're on the phone. i wouldn't excuse you from this segment. you said with sampson drone this is marketing ploy -- is this a marketing ploy? >> this is not a marketing ploy. this is for real. is the only ch wherewithal the means, motivation and now the company they acquired to actually be leaders in robotics. nobody else is going to understand real world, real world robotics like they're going to have it from the programming to the function, the design, to the ip. they will have one management structure. this is the future. this is for real. in fact i think the google

robots will shoot down the amazon drones. melissa: but what would they actually use them for? what is the function? >> within the next 20 years, robots are going to take over, almost every manual task that is being done right now. mapping is something google is involved in because of their mantra to make all information available. at some point robotics will take over. again google has all of the requirements to make this happen. a guy like andy has been in robotics for 10 or 12 years. he knows this space. here is the most important part from the marketing point of view because you know that is what i care about. melissa: okay. >> robots are forefront of our imagination. robots are the coolest thing out there. google benefits being cool and trendy with the latest hip thing happening. robots are hip. melissa: do you agree with that? >> for the most part. robots are not new. they have been around 20 to 30 years. we've only see them in industrial space. now we move into the consumer space. i want to mention, bruce,

obviously it's a great marketing and great pr play but what we're starting to see, robots also absorb and view content. so that is what google wants to profind the end useer. >> why do i need a running cheetah to absorb content? are they showing off functionality what they can possibly do or is there real practical function for the robots that look so much like animals? >> there is certainly functionality standpoint. from a humanitarian stand point, from disaster recovery, finding people under earthquakes these robots have a very, very distinct function. >> i think it is important to add saying that google is about search is like saying amazon sells books. i think search is the entree but now here you have tools that can do some other things all controlled with data that google will have at their disposal. i think you will see amazing things come out of this. melissa: bruce, if you're a company that for example, you need a robot to do a specific

task for you, whatever it may be, to help you finish your line of business, you think google would be the one that would eventually develop and sell you that and manage that equipment for you? >> i absolutely do. who would have thought that a couple years ago that would have been number two in the phone business? who would have thought amazon -- >> bruce, i happen to disagree a little bit. what i see happening google being on the back end and google will go ahead and licensing this technology to different industries to develop. melissa: sure. i think they still manage it. interesting, like the way we saw ibm move into services when the mainframe and box computer on top of your desk into commoditys. >> same content. all software like indof the day, like bruce said. andy ruben who built android system is controlling robotics of convergence of package. >> convergence is the key word. i love that. >> thank you. melissa: bruce, thanks for hanging in there on the phone. we needed you, we love you. >> thanks so much. melissa: all right. earlier this year a chinese tv report claimed you could buy two

houses in detroit for the same price as a pair of leather shoes. now, chinese investors are snapping up depressed properties all over the city. will an infusion of money from china turn the city around?

china affairs expert from the american enterprise institute. thank you for joining us. chad, let me start with you. is in these folks are coming in with of cash. are they buying residential, commercial, or what? >> well, melissa, what i am seeing here -- i'm sorry, melissa. seeing a large investment in both residential and commercial real estate. i have seen -- sorry.

values of surrounding areas. downtown they're making makes use in business because frankly it makes sense. a lot of opportunity, and they see that. melissa: always been foreign-made it comes into the u.s. to buy property forever. this is not necessarily in the story. was reading a lot of articles %-different in the sense that it is about something more in china. it is about people really trying to relocate. what is it about in your opinion? >> i think you have gotten on touch of. there's a group of chinese investors, not all of them, but a large groupers been a lot of money and what a place to go finny to. i call it a bull told. not that there will necessarily move to these properties right away and they're not interested in the investment value. what to the will to mood out of china to the united states if they need to. they may need to because of political instability. may need to because of smog. so there is a group that says, i want to buy property in the u.s. all sit on it. as happened in my family. epic-for your property.

i won't move van. now i have a place to go funny to. melissa: that begs the question even more, why did write. if you're going to relocate to the u.s. right now, i could see it as that investment, but please don't be offended to anyone in detroit, not sure is the number one destination if you're coming from another city in a relocating, you could find a cheap property elsewhere were maybe the municipal services are more reliable. it is a city that is really struggling right now. as a tough place to move to. >> i think your thinking too much from the american perspective. from the chinese perspective if you're rich get in here, francisco, that's fine. but if you're not that rich and you see a report of buying cheap american property, you grab it and don't worry about what the others opportunities are 56 that's a great point. thank you. >> thank you. >> thank you. melissa: chinese interest in detroit my surprise some, but not real estate mogul don peebles. he tab the motor city is a prime

investment opportunity. and we talk to him last month. he joins us now to explain why foreign investors are flocking to detroit. thank you for coming back, by the way. >> great to be back. melissa: did you hear everything that came before you? are you surprised? >> i did, and i am not. one thing that no one focused on that they should focus on is our government has with is called an ed5 program. it is foreign investors that invest over $500,000 into the u.s., it generates a certain number of jobs, they get a green card. and some more and more chinese investors are investing in many cities around the country through the e.b. five program, and they utilize that to

will target price had been increased to, we decided not to bid and the winning bidder was a chinese investment firm. melissa: that is interesting, and you're right on target. let me ask you a question. you know, what is the right play then for the average american to back to you pylon and try to invest with them? and in command as it impact my investment? >> i think for those who live in the midwest or live in michigan, detroit is a great investment and especially in the downtown core. and so, yeah, you follow them. what is happening now is it is a gateway city. the traditional and the premier gateway city, new york, washington d.c., san francisco, los angeles, now a miami, followed by chicago, boston, houston. what is happening now is as property values are going of significantly that the return on investment is declining to assess that they are not really

appealing for opportunistic investors. that is why you see detroit as a traffic investment for foreign investors. every american should be following where the jobs are and where people wanting to go to be entertained and live because that is the two core motivators for where people live, especially when they live in multifamily and urban environments. melissa: the people we have read before you were talking about maybe the people who are buying these houses are not coming right away. add another they're not speculators that will buy the property and then let it decline more or it is just an investment so that it is i really of the property value because there's no one living in it, kind of falling apart. natalie know they will be get donors that will make the rest of the property rise. >> when you look at detroit, for example, the opportunity is to invest and to redevelop. in fact another free press building came with significant financial incentives from the state. and they expire at a certain

time. so many of those investors, especially the ed5 investors have to generate jobs. think we will see some of that, but there will be land banking or there will be turned into rental properties because many people still cannot afford to buy or qualify. melissa: we want to beat the trend in other cities and looking at the top ten u.s. cities for chinese home buyers. a lot of them are obvious, new york, los angeles, philadelphia, a little less obvious. on the list was memphis. it was way down at the bottom. i don't know if we even made the list is long. it was number ten. the try to get to a city like memphis or maybe it is cheaper to get in and try and get ahead of the chinese investment there? what do you think? >> and this is interesting because of the entertainment focus, but i would look somewhere else. just like a call detroit, would look at oakland, california. it's right in the corps over you see a lot of foreign investors, especially from the far east, chinese investors love san francisco.

san francisco has become extremely expensive. that is pushing a lot of people out to the space to live with to stimulate more economic development activity. so i think that is a great place to go and invest right now. the west coast, oakland is a tremendous opportunity for great upside from the small investors to the midsize and larger investors demand you will see that happening, certainly into 2014. we will see a lot of activity in the east bay. melissa: boston and miami, your other choices. great stuff. thank you for coming back. >> thank you for having me. melissa: we all heard the old saying, dress for success. is there any truth to it? tweet me and tell me what you think. it will go into the five biggest mistakes that will derail your career. the end of t all about how you dress. ♪ hi honey, did you get e toaster cozy?
