which we can do fairly easily and we can do that while everybody keeps their benefits and then we have to find some other sources of revenue. rich: can we keep constant level of benefits or do they need to take less benefits? >> i expect overtime when we get to fixing it we wouldn't let it grow as fast but i don't thing we will see ourselves taking away fundamental benefits but medicare and medicaid, all about how you deliver health care, at what cost, with what co-payments and what deductibles and all that, that can be fixed and everyone has their benefits. then you need another source of income. peter: business confidence really quick. we won't see much coming from the government especially from congress. how and when does business begin to pick up that porche, pick up that baton and higher at a faster pace? >> you can get two answers to that. when you get 3% economic growth

is more likely but the second answer is when you give some assurance by way of giving them back what actually is going to happen to obamacare and what it is going to cost what we going to do about the trade agreement which i am optimistic about and what benefits does that provide to the business? what actually are we going to do over the long haul about entitlements? that we can look at this and say the government is stable, we are doing smart things, limit regulation and start investing. >> does the government have that much effect on our slower growth? >> i would say if you look at the fact that the recession was over five years ago and we are still in the can with growth this year that might get 2% i think the government has a lot of affect. rich: when you talk about the midterm elections you want to spend money and get elected pro-business candidates, we talk

about this in the press conferences that mean anti tea party and anti people who are going to want to at least threaten to shut down the government? turn to allow the government go past the debt ceiling? >> my fundamental deal is the tea party catalog of good recommendations. manage your cause, limit your taxation, expand your trade. there have since then been a lot of people who want to hook their wagon to the tea party argument and the tea party name and the people who want to not pay the national, pay the debt when it comes due and once he shut down the government, we shut it down 30 times but i mean really shut it down, those people are not helping us. we need to get people that want to get into the congress, get with people on the other side of the aisle and find real solutions to these problems before the problems get us. rich: thanks for joining us this afternoon and sent it back to you in new york.

rich: appreciate it. dennis: blizzard conditions, the weather over the past we could cost the country $5 billion in lost revenue. some businesses reap an upside in the freeze. kristin drake helps companies like coals and coca-cola and had smart on how to react to the weather. welcome. appreciate your being with us. do you think overall businesses were in good preparation ready for the storm or were they caught by surprise? >> thanks for having me. i think a lot of businesses have been paying more attention to the weather this year. we had a cold and snowy december and the weather has been very volatile over the past few months so there are a lot of businesses that are prepared for this weather. dennis: $5 billion in lost revenue. what is that based on? >> based on a lot of factors. they are impacted, 200 million people which is the most since

superstorm sandy. that is causing a huge impact to the economy and from those people impacted you have lost productivity from people who are not able to get to work or school or their place of business and people who are not shopping and purchasing like they normally do. >> when i forgo purchasing aren't likely to go out and to buy what i need once the weather warms up? >> in some cases you may make a purchase of little bit later, you may just be late it based on the weather for some of those items like consumables but for other things you won't go out to dinner twice next week because you didn't go out to dinner at all this week. a lot of those purchases will be impacted by high-cost of energy we have seen, electricity, natural gas hit record highs the last few days and consumers are going to get those bills in the next month or so which will significantly impact our purchasing. dennis: on work productivity i was hoping losses of work productivity would be less now than 20 years ago because people

have the option of telecommuting. >> there is a little bit less of an impact. there are people who are able to work from home and in this situation we did find even though the cold temperatures and snow caused a lot of people not to be able to travel. people are not using electricity to the same effect we sometimes see with significant ice storms so that is a benefit and we see the winners from this on that side of the business. online shopping for example should see a spike this week because people are not going out to the store but may be purchasing at home. dennis: a nice bump up after online guys at a fantastic december. let's talk winner, online retailers and who are the other winners? >> some of the other winners include -- some of the other winners include anything you are able to do at home so take out delivery food instead of going to the restaurant or any type of on demand movie or television

watching, we will see an uptick this week, people are hibernating staying at home so anything that allows them to do their activities in doors is something that will see a big boost. dennis: as for losers, movie theaters? >> anything that gets consumers out of their home, usually people, to escape from being indoors this week they want to stay inside. we are seeing a lot of people stop those shopping trips, anything that is a destination location is being significantly reduced this week. dennis: natural gas drilling in the u.s. those energy bills won't be as high as they were five years ago. thanks for being with us today. kristin break. >> thank you. cheryl: could there be light at the very cold tunnel? the latest forecast to this

brutal cold snap will come to an end. standing by in the fox business weather center. dennis: and the train carrying crude oil the rails and catches fire this time in canada. detail ahead. as we do every day at this time look at energy.

cheryl: stronger yesterday, negative today, 69 points, an hour and 25 minutes from the fed minutes, we will see what the fed had to say in the last policy meeting, could be a game change, microsoft impact the dow three points, alan mulally saying he won't leave the automaker microsoft and has been considered a move for him to replace steve ballmer so now this is uncertainty for a microsoft, three to four months since he announced he would retire in the company still searching for the third ceo in its 30 year history, directors of microsoft hopes to have a new ceo by the end of the year.

time for stocks every 15 minutes, to the floor of the stock exchange, nicole petallides watching constellation bands, big stock for the market. >> different analyst for constellation brands, for microsoft constellation brand on the other side up 80%, a new high today of $78.48, they noted up over 8% and they talked about had juggling, revenue up 88%, turns out while they have a lot of names under their umbrella including vodka, and wine, but beer helped them along, beer is very hot this summer, the trend has continued and they are talking positively about moving into the new year. they raised their full-year forecast. would be? koren and mondello are the ones that are helping them. dennis: anoth train carrying crude oil derails and burst into

flames. this is the ninth oil train derailment in the u.s. or canada in the past 12 months. 150 people evacuated from the area in new brunswick, canada near the border with maine, no casualties reported. to the trading pits of the cme, phil flynn. oil doesn't seem to burst into flames when traveling through a pipeline. >> it doesn't and that is the bottom line. why aren't we moving this through a pipeline? that is the safest way to move oil. why aren't we building the keystone pipeline? we are putting the country more at risk because of these explosions. as you said we have seen the amount of oil moving by rail and record high last year and the concern of course is it is going to have to double. no one says we shouldn't move oil by rail. one of the safe alternatives but it is not the safest. the safest is going through a pipeline and when you see these kinds of concerns it can definitely impact not only the

stocks of these companies but the safety of people. last july we had 145 people died during one of these rail explosions. they have to move safely. on top of that some of the oil they are moving may be more volatile than the oil they used to, that has caused the market to be more concerned, safer by rail and safer by pipeline. dennis: it is picked up by the pro keystone folks. thanks, phil flynn. cheryl: the deadly cold snap, record lows in cities across the country but there is a end insight. we have your forecast. >> sharing against the greenback. [ male announcer ] hands were made for playing.

legs, for crossing. feet...splashing. better things than the joint pain and swelling of moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis. if you're trying to ma, now may be time to ask about xeljanz. xeljz (tofacitinib) is a small pl, not an injection or infusion, for adults with moderate to severe ra for whom methotrexate did not work well. xeljanz can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. seris, sometimes fatal infections and cancers have happened in patients taking xeljanz. don't start xeljanz if you have any infection, unless ok with your doctor. tears in the stomach or intestines, low bod cell counts andigher liver tes and cholesterol levels have happened. your doctor should perform blood tts before you start and while taking xeljanz, and roiny check certain liver tests. tell your doctor if you have been to a region where certain fungal infections are common, and if you have had tb, hepatitis b oc,

or are prone to infections. tell your doctor about all the medicines you take, and if you are pregnant, or plan to be. taken twice daily, xeljanz can reduce the joint pain and swelling of moderate to severe ra, even without methotrexate. ask if xeljanz is right for you.

dennis: 50 major cities breaking lows as the bone chilling cold eases up in part of the country day. >> it has been rough one across the east.

this is the overnight temperature, 9 in new york city, 7 in boston-10 in minneapolis-6 in chicago, still very cold, been killed across the northern plains is where it is the coldest but that is around 20 to 30 degrees better than you felt a couple days a, feels like 9 across the big cities of the north, 16 in d.c. the cold in place but you see it retreating, look at your high temperatures today getting up to 20 in fargo, 26 in chicago, below freezing but improved from where you were. towards the day tomorrow you notice temperatures increase again just a little bit, go towards the day saturday, everybody looking good and look across the big cities in the northeast temperatures in the 50s, the ice on the ground will begin to melt a little bit. taking a look at the next 7 days in new york, the average, 38 degrees and by friday we get 43.

friday we get just above it and the weekend looking good. that is great news. we will see this cold air moves across the great lakes and we have seen lake effect snow and we will see a few areas another foot, and in the four footer range for lake effect snow behind this cold air. dennis: thanks very much. cheryl: jpmorgan paying billions to settle bernie madoff related charges. the question, who is being held responsible? you say shareholders being shaken to protect the people that breaks the law. charles: shaken down or the money, what bothers me is i come out and defend capitalism all the time and free markets and democracy and america and it feels like the other side has a lot of momentum going for them. the next two years could change america of the way we know it and when these wall street guys,

anyone can make a mistake on a trade but if you are going to admit to criminal wrongdoing, someone should a phrase. you can say we did do something criminal how much do you want? they allow themselves to be ripped off by the federal government so no one in the firm has to go to jail and use shareholder money to do it they turn this whole thing upside down and give so much ammunition against the forces -- cheryl: the london wale, that was -- he was responsible for that at the end of the day, if you are finding it -- trying to get past all this, they set aside $20 billion in the last quarter, trying to get past all of that. charles: i understand that part but, if we did nothing criminal, i would probably find it and can't afford to fight it because of mine a -- financial institutions and criminal

indictment, that is enough to bankrupt and destroy the firm. look at what happened to aig even though it was unethical to threaten criminals to encourage civil settlement, the people most directly responsible for a mess up and find them instead of the company. in this case we should find the sec. it is not jpmorgan's job to blow the whistle on bernie madoff. is the sec's job. charles: if they found out what you -- dennis: they didn't know about it. charles: they admitted they knew about bernie madoff. would you want to find jamie dimon the ceo or the guy who runs that department. charles: the assumption that somebody, some ceo with offices in 40 countries is going to check off every quarter.

and they were clean. this is ammunition, ultimately could hurt -- it could hurt anyone. this is the kind of thing that could hurt companies. if the forces of capitalism when they will -- cheryl: look at the financial sector. for 2013-12-11 top performing sector every year they still can make it out of this mess. charles: the fed is buying all of this stock and get money from zero% interest. cheryl: we could be here all day. thank you very much. dennis: shunning trends thats, a once feared food and dr. manny alvarez will talk about this delicious firm trend. cheryl: workaholics listen up,

discussed in the spring. but to the end of the year we had good economic news reported a and the fed announced they would start to taper and then we start to go wed. cheryl: we will vote this afternoon as we get the fed minutes about 90 minutes from now but these are stocks of specific radar. the three systems at a company that was public featuring 3d printers all the rage. the stock is up 137% in the last month 15%. you say by air of paul? >> value is hard to determine but i equate this company to apple as a merger of the two allowing us to become a new manufacturer of the renaissance and apple have both industrial as well as retail applications.

>> because we exaggerate everything. looked at the french paradox they eat butter and everything in moderation and common north as a collectivity and they love their wine and beer for cardiovascular disease in france is very low compared to the american system. natural foods are not bad but we make the mistake we make them so huge and larger and big portions and sets in front of the tv was no physical movement we don't drink enough wind so yes you get heart disease but the product itself. bit as good properties if you eat butter in moderation 100 billion times better than and margarine. dennis: in france there is no such as saying of moderation what about the steady thousands upon thousands of people they

found all at -- general products are bad? >> i was talking to an oncologist today about the natural food versus artificial at the end of the dade natural is better than artificial. we know that for a fact but the problem i have the in the u.s. there are other factors. look at china they have a huge problem with smoking which we know is of leading cause of cancer in the world is looking is very bad so when you cohabitate the factors of smoking lifestyle , lack of exercise exercise, that is when these things are cloudy but if you extrapolate to load data products like butter with moderation is great to. your body can metabolize. i am glad you are back. >> to that is the key.

>> but we need the content but that is where you come in. and is very competitive right now. how do we get to these brilliant television sets when these are not yet made technically or digitally? >> today at consumer electronics show is much different than what you saw years ago because we're at the intersection of their technology and content meet. because all the vices are connected so they are worthless without the content of the early adopter had the gadget that to do one thing. these tvs can do multiple things. so content plays a key role. >> '04 word one year but will fox be playing when it comes to these tvs?

>> there is the digital transmission there is a billion people that buy tvs and 38 million that are digitally active but have not started a movie collection. so what are the benefits for those 38 million people for the business? how to read displayed data on these large tvs? that is a challenge because the movie file is a much larger than a block or music. moving data round of the internet is our biggest challenge. >> there is a hit or miss with the every seal but what sticks out is 3d television with the glasses but what makes you so sure this ultra high definition is the next thing? >> i think this is the

extension of high-definition. so i think they will continue to get bigger into the definition will continue to increase. this is on the same trajectory from standard to high-definition to alter a high-definition. it is not a curve in the road like 3-d. >> we cannot wait to see the next avatars. >> there are two more in production and it will be a bad boy when that gets. jim cameron actually configures the movie to work when it comes into the hold and that is why a few five blue wray with high-definition television "avatar" is brighter, a better looking than any other movie. >> but blu ray is not yet except old straw high-definition.
