over 180 million people have gone into some form of hibernation just to escape it but some businesses believe it or not are actually doing better in the vortex. we salute them. joining us a local restaurant owner in chicago. he will tell us a little more. we have fox news's garrett tenney braving the cold as well. george, get right to it. i love you're turning the freezing weather into cold hard cash. tell us about the business and why the cold is helping you. >> we are exploding. we're doing all deliveries all day until 10:00 at night. people just stay home and call us and to deliver their food. melissa: have you hired extra delivery people and are they absolutely furious with you you're sending them out to deliver food in the freezing cold? >> they're not furious. they're making money. but i did hire three more guys. to accommodate our business. melissa: do you have to pay them extra? what do you do to convince them to go? >> no. tips are paying themselves. they're doing pretty good with tips. melissa: how much more would you say you're making through the

cold weather? how much of a boom is it for you? >> our deliveries weren't up about 60%. melissa: wow. what does that represent for you about? >> couple thousand dollars more a day. melissa: nice. do you, and now are you concerned about your employees at all? what are you doing to help them kind of stay warm through all of this? >> they're pretty much prepared with the, with the temperatures. they change clothes. they try to warm up wherever they can but they're hustling. they're running out there. melissa: are there other restaurants in the area that are picking up on this and doing the same thing? >> i don't know. i don't know if they can keep up with it. it is pretty bad out here. melissa: pretty bad out there. where you're standing right now talking to us but you're getting awesome free advertising, what is the name of your restaurant? where are you locateed? >> choppers at 1659 north ashland avenue in chicago. melissa: how long do you think you can keep this up before your workers say there is no amount of money that makes it worth it for us to get outside in the cold and deliver? we have a few meteorologists,

janice dean out front is frozen as a rock. we have few folks giving up. when do you think your folks will give up on you. >> we'll not give up much we'll keep going. melissa: no matter what. >> no matter what. melissa: what kind of food do you serve and how does it survive the cold weather? it travels okay.s, milk shakes. melissa: it is not froze renn by the time you get there. my main concern getting french fries traveling through the cold. they will be potato icicles by the time they get there which is not that delicious. >> no, they're not. it travels pretty good. it also does all right. melissa: garrett, are other folks doing the sail thing? are you guys pretty much the only two guys standing out there in freezing cold weather? >> every so often you see somebody walk past. you always kind of exchange a look with each other, what are you doing outside. that is what is going through everyone's mind when you see them outside. not just today, yesterday and

the day before. not a lost foot traffic that's out there. officials are really asking people to stay home and stay indoors, which you know has been great for george. melissa: i was going to say. garrett, officials are asking people to stay inside and stay indoors, what did you have to stay to george to convince him to the talk with us? >> you know, george is telling me, he said things have been so busy, just took him all day to have a chance to come out here to meet with us because they have been so caught up. surprisingly, melissa, one of the things that is just selling out of the store his suppliers can't keep up with is milk shakes. yesterday, 40 degrees with the windchill and they're selling out of milk shakes. melissa: that is crazy. garrett, did you have a milkshake? are you considering that right now. >> no. i can hardly feel my feet after two days outside. milk shake sounds like worst thing in the world. anything cold is bad. melissa: unless it had vodka in it or something. i'm not sure a milk shake would

be best idea right now. garrett, how long will it last where you are? in new york they're saying almost done with this. >> today it did. we reached above zero degrees. first time in almost two days that happened, negative, with the wind chills that is continuing. it is about negative 20 with those windchills. that is expected to continue really throughout today. it is an improvement. yesterday we were at negative 40s, negative 50s in the windchill. it is better but negative 20, still feels miserable. melissa: garrett before i let you go pack inside and regain feeling in your fingers, i see people walking around behind you. they keep passing hyped you. what are folks doing out and about if they're not on live television? what are they doing outside? >> some people did have to go to work today. officials said, stay at home if you can. some people have had to come through. the car traffic is well behind us. that picked up a little bit throughout as well. we're getting ready to hit rush hour. so we're seeing more of it. for the most part, this is not what you see on a monday or,

sorry, tuesday, losing track of my days now. tuesday around rush hour. melissa: he is getting incoherent. we'll have to let you go inside because you're getting incoherent. thanks to both of you joining us. much george, we salute, getting out into the cold and turning into cold hard cash. the show is called "money." you're making it in spite of weather. good for you. thanks, guys. >> thank you. melissa: they're not only ones suffering. check out this guy. this is escaped convict. he turned himself in when icy cold became too much. his name is robert vick. escaped from a facility in lexington. spent all the work, walked into a hotel lobby to ask him to call police to take him back to jail. he wanted to get out of cold conditions. i don't really blame him. if you escaped once you probably can do it again, right? >> speaking of cold weather is the polar vortex making you fat? january is a peak time for gym. tons of people giving up on new

kind of just the tip of the iceberg though. the company also pointing to new faa regulations which put restrictions on pilot times in the cockpit. here now to explain, what went wrong, is travel expert see seal robinhimer. thanks for joining us. >> thank you, melissa. melissa: on the show last week we told our viewers about this new rule going into effect which said pilots had to time out. they had to spend more time sleeping and some airlines were prepared and hired more people and some airlines didn't. is this disaster with jetblue prove they were not prepared? >> i think jetblue by now in a little bit after precarious situation. first of all, they did say, the spokeeperson for jetblue said, it's a delicate situation balancing all these flight delays and flight cans he islations. i think jetblue is struggling a bit right now. first of all you have all these cancellations aad they're having to deal with that.

then heavy now kind of speculated on the new faa rule and they have said, as they have been struggling with actually staffing and getting, you know, the cabin crews to turn around. getting pie loots, you know, to get back in the air. so i think jetblue is in a bit of a -- melissa: absolutely. when you listen to passengers out there and stranded, they said, they sat there hour after hour in the airport. they looked at the board, everything from jetblue was canceled. everybody else was taking off. so they tried to blame the with every. why is it only this one airline? that is really when it came to everyone's attention, they were facing something special. i mean, should this -- i have flights coming up on jetblue. i bought tickets three days ago. should i be nervous about this airline in the near term? >> i think that the thing is, jetblue definitely said it would take them a couple days to get it all sorted, get everyone on back on track. i think jetblue has made some

definite headway and they definitely made the news because of the fact they have been talking about the new faa rule and how that has affected their operation. i think the reality is the fact that there have been thousands and thousands of flights across the country and i really definitely feel for passengers that are sitting at the airport. it is a really trying time and -- melissa: if they don't have enough pilots, that is not a quick fix. that is not something they will take a day to organize. unless, i don't know, can you hire a bunch of pilots overnight? doesn't seem like that is possible? >> i definitely wouldn't recommend it. i think they have had two years to kind of plan and put a contingency plan which i believe they have. i just think the sad reality when these emergency situations happen, which is to some degree unforeseen but we're considering it is january and we all know there is normally horrendous snowstorms in the northeast so they probably could have handled it better. melissa: it is not happening to anyone else. the statement they put out, we're facing additional

challenges, new faa rules went into effect for crew rest. these rules affect our ability to operate in already disrupted schedule. of every other airline is dealing with faa rules and every other airline is dealing with the weather but jetblue is having special problems. how long does it take them to fix it? if they get back in line, do i trust pilots they suddenly got to fly for them if they hired new people? >> i don't think they will hire brand new people right off the bat. i can tell you that. keep in mind, jetblue has a bit after epic fail this week. ultimately the faa rule was in effect. they got two years to do it. the point is, reason faa put it in they want us to be safe. ultimately it's a tough situation. and it is really something, you know, we feel for the passengers and yet we want to make sure we're all safe. you want to land properly and not get off the airline. melissa: thank you so much. >> thank you so much for having me. melissa: today the senate voted to move forward on a bill that

would reinstate expired jobless benefits that would millions of americans lost last month. one senator said it is good for the economy. one economist said it is a cruel hoax on the poor. joining me to explain university of maryland economist, peter morici. peter, love having you on the show. why would this be a cruel hoax on the poor? >> we're essentially creating a permanent entitlement by extending and reextending 55 months into the recovery. the way the government provides permanent funding for unemployment insurance is a payroll tax which caps out at 12,000 across the states. if this becomes a permanent deal, we will basically tax those $7.25s an hour workers. melissa: but we're not talking about it being permanent. they're just extending it one more time? >> i think we're getting to that point, the kind of argument they're making is that this recovery is unusual. it is anemic. it is knot providing enough

jobses. do you honestly think they extend it three more months conditions will be much better for those folks come april? i don't think so. melissa: what do they do? they keep extending it and extending it? >> well the, also the republicans in the house are going demand funding for it. do you know anything democrats on senate side are willing to cut? any entitlement they're trimming back to pay 25 billion a year for this? no. the way the government handles extended unemployment benefits when it decides to actually fund them is by increasing the payroll tax. and the payroll tax caps out at an average of $12,000 across the states. which means that it falls predominantly on the poor. now a lot of people that are collecting these benefits and collect maximum benefits are middle class folks who don't wan to adjust their circumstances. take a job waiting tables. melissa: interesting. i saw a study recently that said, you know, that the number of hours that people spend looking for work increases threefold in the past two weeks before their jobless benefits run out.

do you think that's true? because when we, it feels cruel when you say you want to take away unemployment benefits from people that are out of work but does it extend the problem? >> it certainly does. in fact, there are two effects. one is people put off looking for a job in the manner you just described but also the higher costs of these unemployment benefits are causing employers to add fewers workers. the national bureau of economic research, you might not be familiar with them, but they're a mainstream -- melissa: i sure am. know exactly who it is. please, come on, peter. >> i met the viewers. this is a wonky economist thing. they're basically a mainstream, middle of the road group, not known to be a bunch of conservatives. in fact a lot of people that write for them come from liberal universities up in the northeast. they have found that the majority of the additional unemployment caused by the great recession has been because by extending unemployment benefits. there you go. melissa: absolutely.

where does the funding come from right now as we say today sitting here and extending it? where does the money come from? >> either they find the money cutting spending someplace else or borrow more. if they find money by cutting spending somewhere else it will be a drag on economy. when the government is appropriated a dollar it spends the whole dollar. when the unemployed get a dollar they don't spend it all. some of it they use to buy down their debt. they pay off credit cards and things like that. so it is actually a drag on the economy, if you take it from someplace else in the budget. melissa: but they will not do that knowing those guys. they never take anything from someplace else. they borrow more money. >> we'll see what the house does. certainly the senate likes to borrow money. the senate thinks money doesn't grow on trees but falls from the sky when ben bernanke sneezes. now janet yellen. mr. boehner said, you want to extend it, that's fine. where is the funding? let's see what the house does. melissa: peter morici, thanks

very much. love having you on. >> take care. melissa: ultimate feeling of dread. the anxiety you feel whenever you leave the house without your phone. it is real-life 21st century condition. not only that, there are a host of other modern day ailments linked to technology that keep us awake at night? like text claw. do you have text claw? you can imagine what that means. are you suffering from any of them? you have to watch this. tweet me. tell me what you think. get more text claw by tweeting me and telling me what you think. do you ever have too much money?
