melissa. melissa: thank you so much. president obama preparing to lay undot law on immigration. even his own party is not with him on this one. expanding waistlines, racking up big numbers just not on the scale. $2 trillion burden on the worldwide economy. business out of ideas. marketing departments bending over backwards to get you the consumer do their work. how much for that room in the window? a startup that is looking to become the airbnb forman's best friend. even when they say it's not it is always about money. melissa: so tonight president obama takes the reins on immigration, following through on his vow to sidestep congress but even his own party isn't on board. democratic senator joe manchin says, i wish he wouldn't do it. i think we ought to work through this process and new elections and results of the elections we

ought to try in january to see if we can find a pathway to get something accomplished. will the president's executive action poison the well before we even begun? here our very own david asman. rob basso, advantage payroll services. todd schoenberger from land consult capital. thanks for joining us. what do you think? >> i think the president is about to violate current law. according to the constitution he is not allowed to do that. current law does not allow illegals to work in the united states. apparently what he is about to do on his own, unlike ronald reagan, reagan did the same thing, he didn't. reagan was following simpson mazzoli passed by both houses of congress. reagan sign the bill which didn't work out to wall. article 2. >> section 8, congress has authority to establish rules of.

he is changing the rules. melissa: charles. >> prosecutorial -- melissa: prosecutorial -- >> prosecutorial discretion and when you know, when he, uses that as a guise -- >> that is just a phrase. >> when he uses that as a guise it is incredibly misleading. not what bush 41 did. not what obama did. melissa: todd, his own party is saying please don't do this. so he has to know that and he is doing it anyway. why do you think? >> i think it just proves that the midterm elections were completely meaningless to him. this was his policy. this is what he wants to accomplish. this is his goal all along. we have to wonder, this is just the first initiative taking place. the next two years will be damning for the country obviously. if you're going to go through these policies and just do things on a rogue basis. >> another interesting fact when people vote, especially first generation immigrants they end it to vote for democrats. i wonder if -- >> my wife came here from

nicaragua. my stepson was born in nicaragua. he became a citizen whale fighting in iraq. both have problems. my wife is dead-set against it. a lot of immigrants don't follow this. american people or and even "the washington post" doesn't. melissa: fox business special report as neil cavuto hosts as president announces the executive action he will take on immigration. an eye-opening stat, 60% of the americans receive more in government benefits than they pay in in federal taxes. how will tonight's announcement on immigration change that number? you wonder, as we bring some more new people into the u.s. and allow them to stay, which part of that group do they join? do they make the 60% bigger or do they become some of those folks -- >> not, it is clear in everybody's stats that's what happened they are going to crowd, if anything they will crowd out the american sit concerns already here having trouble on low end of the scale. all the new jobs created recently have been part-time, i shouldn't say all, most are part

time. melissa: talking about transfer payments. hang on. they're not eligible for federal benefits but each state has their own rules. will be interesting to see if they're eligible for state benefits. they will pay tax. >> paying $10,000 worth of taxes, based on that it is costing the u.s. government $14,000 a year for immigrants. it is costing us to have new immigrants come to the nation. >> what will they produce to the economy? that will be question mark. i know what everybody is saying here. the president is only argument here is that this will be some type of a benefit to gdp. what that is going to be remains to be seen but you are right the jobs that have been created in the country over the last 10 years are lower -- >> top 20% of the taxpayers in the country are only group paying in more than they're taking out. that is unsustainable. that has got to change. >> what challenges this? simple fact, not following constitution. slap in the face for people who have legal immigration. melissa: you talk about what is

it going to mean incrementally to the economy and what it will mean for labor. amazon got a little help from a tiny army of robots. i wonder if this is the direction we're going in labor? retailer rolling out in warehouses in time for yearly rush. they will say that somebody around grabbing items. they say somebody walks 20 miles a day. now they will not do that. have the robot do that. they will save $900 million a year in fulfillment costs. that is labor because of the robots. >> minimum wage it wouldn't be cheaper to hero bottoms instead of people. >> they have to cut the whole picking department. supposed to pick 100 items in a day. now they will be responsible for 300 because of robots. melissa: another low skilled job going away as we bring in more low skilled workers. >> so be it.

great for shareholders. they have a fiduciary responsibility to their shareholders. they don't actually creating jobs. that is what america needs to realize with publicly-traded companies. >> that is good reason we don't have inflation. the that is because of productivity. that is good thing. >> don't have wage inflation keep that in mind. with robots, start of things to come. across the board with all industries. may see it here on fox business one day, melissa, i'm replaced by a robot? >> nobody could ever replace you. melissa: come on, ridiculous thing to say. al sharpton in hot seat over taxes. "new york times" alleges that he owes 4 1/2 million dollars in unpaid taxes of the he denies that number but won't reveal how much he has left to pay down, saying it comes from an oldies put with irs. old, ancient, forget about he it, not worth talking about. david asman, what do you think? >> i am extremely conflicted i don't know who to believe al sharpton or "new york times"? but i think in the end you have

to believe "the new york times." they did a very long investigative study on this they interviewed all the people al sharpton claims should have been interviewed. they know the story. the guy is a shakedown artist in addition not paying his tax. >> a preacher that is not practicing what he preaches. one of fundamental things of being american is paying taxes. even told some of the people belong to the action, join the aca to get affordable benefits. melissa: isn't it patriotic to pay your taxes? he must not be. >> that is patriotic, that is bizarre part. odd side, here is this guy like you said a shakedown artist. you wonder for all the other dollars -- i won't even go there. you know where i'm going. where somebody is paying taxes what else hasn't been reported? >> close confidante of the president. that is a scary thought. >> he had influence in choosing next mom nye for attorney general. he was in the front row when

that nominee was announced a couple weeks ago. melissa: all the time he is also a political commentator and hosting a show on some network somewhere. >> maybe not for long. you never know. melissa: right. our very own david asman hitting the big time on late night, hopefully will take our phone calls after this cameo on the coal barrett report. -- coal barrett report. >> each year black friday gets a little bit blacker and a little less friday. >> retailers are stumbling over each other, announcing how early they will be opening on the holiday this year. >> folks, i'm sorry, i'm taking a stand right now. they can not do this to my black friday. it is a cherished post-thanksgiving tradition that goes you will the way back to the original thanksgiving when the pilgrims knock the to the ground so they could be first to get to the discount buckle hat [laughter] melissa: i love it. don't you love seeing yourself on there. >> this is the first time i've sign it. kind of neutral way to be in the coal barrett report. i wish he did editorial comment.

i shouldn't wish. melissa: no, be careful what you wish for. do you have a buckle hat? are you going shopping on friday. >> i don't have buckle hat. closest i come i have a kilt. my wife bought me a kilt. i wear that on thanksgiving. >> on the air? >> not on the air. luckily i will not be on the air on thanksgiving. one day of the year i bring out the kilt. melissa: thanks so much, you guys. the health epidemic costing companies trillions and it is not smoking. don draper can rest easy on this one. plus the shovels are off to buffalo. the game is on as fans race to remove a year's worth of snow before this weekend's bills game. piles of money coming up. ♪

amount of snow they ever had in the stadium. they will need at least 500 fans working three shifts in order to shovel out the stadium. this is not a joke. they have a real problem. >> the math would take weeks, with 500 workers working 24/7 to shovel this out. again good temporary employment. good wage. folks hanging from the world trade center tower making 29, 30 respectively. >> how much fun is this going to be? break news for the viewers. sound like they will push the game to monday. it could be played in different city. so that is just, came out a few minutes ago. so -- melissa: espn is reporting that right now. i want to say that i'm not sure we confirmed that. >> here is the thing. buffalo fans go crazy when they have one of their home games say in toronto. if you have to move this game, i don't care who they're playing, playing jets. buffalo fans love the buffalo bills. just like they love the hockey. melissa: they will go and be miserable and protest. >> they will do it.

melissa: it is a hefty issue with a $2 trillion global price tag. a new report listing obesity among the top economic problems in the world, trailing smoking and war among man-made issues and the outlook moving forward is grim. predicting that nearly half of the world's population will be overweight or obese within 15 years. half of the world's population. that is amazing. joining me on the phone, dr. david samadi from lennox hill hospital. we have james frischling with us on the set along with our own tracy byrnes.

dr. samadi, i will start with you. it's a huge epidemic. is it as big of a problem they're making it out to be? >> yes it is, melissa. what is going on in this country, and i have said it before, there is really no politician, nobody can really balance the budget in health care unless you take care of obesity. obesity is not just one disease. obesity is on the rise. i said it many times, that our food chain is completely contaminated. we're consuming a lot more food than we should. we're not walking around, we're not exercising. this is across the board all over. obesity should be thought of just a little fat around the belly, because it secretes a lot of hormones. it affects the kidneys. the biggest problem with obesity are diabetes. they are sister and brother, they go hand in hand. melissa: okay. >> when you're obese, insulin won't work. diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease you have something called met billionic syndrome.

that leads to heart disease. that is whole spectrum of disease. that is what we should think about with obesity. melissa: tracy, amazing to me the stat that half of the world's population will be overweight or obese. the lot of the problem fattening food is cheap. >> there is more obese people in low-income parts of world for that exact reason. it has got to take a multitude of things, melissa. there is not one answer to this. dr. samadi pointed out all the diseases that are a result of this but you can't fix it with one swoop. we're talk about, so you have got to eat better. take personal responsibility. tough work out. it is a cluster of things. not like someone will come up with a magic pill. melissa: what do you think? >> i was reading this issue is 2 1/2 times larger, overweight, obesity issue than undernourished and starving issues. melissa: that is amazing. >> one is self-induced. i get processed food issue, but remedy is smaller portions, remedy is more exercise or healthier meals in schools i have a hard time figuring out

why we can't solve it? that is something we should be able to address. melissa: let's ask dr. samadi. why is this getting worse than getting better? >> number one, i think it is a rich man's syndrome. there is more money in the world and as industrial countries are, we're seeing more and more and you're right, food is not expensive we eat more. now adays with 7, $8, get your french fries and burgers and get your soda. also the amount of salt in all of the food, and saturated fat, it is killing us. that is what is going on. part of the problem is also internet. before internet we were you can walking more. we were really going to -- there were no escalators. there were stairs. with internet, what happened was we started sitting more. we're not moving as much. we're behind these computers. we're behind these smartphones. melissa: okay. no, that is a very good segue into our next issue because another big medical problem on the horizon but we probably

brought this one on ourselves just like the other one, doctors warning of a phenomenon known as text neck, caused by staring at your phone all day long, looking down at 60-degree angle is the equivalent of carrying 60-pound child on your neck. we're ruining, talk about electronics, making us fat, also ruining our necks. how big of a problem is this, dr. samadi? >> cervical spine arthritis is real entity for a lot of us using smartphones and ipads. personally i do a lot of robotic surgery for prostate cancer. for last 12, 13 years, i, not starting to suffer from it but i've been looking sitting looking at robot hours and hours which is similar to sitting looking at ipad and all these phones. so over time you start having wear and tear of your c spine and it is a real problem, a real entity. millions you get away, stretching and standing against the wall and really stretch your

it's going to be unpopular. they're trying to tailor the message, but it will leave a mark. >> quite frankly, the president doesn't care. he feels like his time is running out. (?) this is his way to placate the latino voters that have told the president to go big and bold. he's going big and bold with his announcement which will really impact a lot of those american voters who said basically, please don't go at this alone. and he's deciding -- melissa: maybe he's already lost them. this is a clever move to go big and bold to reunite his base. is this a clever ploy, chris? >> what do you get? you're done. this is it. this is the legacy. that's why he's going alone and going big on global warming. that's why he's going

alone and big on anything he can. here's the reality, there will be three things we know that will take plus. number one, we have a fiscal cliff coming up. number two, there will be a surge at the us border as this goes into effect. that's a certainty. as adults who have children in the united states will take advantage of that. number three, republican congress is coming to town in january. the president hasn't come to terms with what his political realities are. melissa: president obama may not include visas for high-tech -- mark zuckerberg and other giants have been pushing for these visas. these are the famous h1 visas. this allows people to come to our country that get higher ph.d.es. they leave with that technical know how. people like mark zuckerberg want to keep people here. it's a dicey issue. >> these technical

executives have been lobbying congress for up the numbers for visas. expanding that to seven 150,000 visas. it becomes a very interesting and controversial point. quite frankly, because you have individuals, americans coming out of college. they're trying to get these jobs. these companies can give these industry wages to these foreign workers and not have to worry necessarily about hiring americans for these jobs. melissa: yeah. >> on the other hand there's a talent shortage. it could go either way. at the end -- melissa: it's interesting. this is something mark zuckerberg and others have been pushing for. the president posting on facebook the fact he was going to make that announcement tonight. they asked josh earnest if the president was doing that as a thank you to mark zuckerberg to drive traffic to facebook. i think mark zuckerberg wanted something else, not that. he wanted the visas.

>> they'll figure out a way to do this. he'll get visas. the president has a gambit. his corporate backers in silicon valley believe this will be a pry bar to force the issue out in congress. this is part of a gambit. my argument is it's unlikely to work because in this era, they should know it because they're the internet people, comprehensive large-scale deals sensitive my uncles like immigration are very unlikely to muster with people reading every bill on the internet. melissa: we have to go. stay tuned to fox business for complete coverage of the president's speech tonight starting at 8:00 p.m. eastern. takata wrapping up a hearing on capitol hill. auto executive testified before congress on the company's exploding air bags as regulators push to take the recall nationwide. fox business' rich edison has more on this

quality over time? >> you can continue to control the quality. we hire more people. interview everybody. also use our own power pet sitters to help do home checks and screen them into homes. there's a lot of ways we work to maintain quality. that's what the business is about, as you say. melissa: what is the liability? if i leave my dog with someone and he bites them, am i liable? >> everyone is protected. from day one, we have the best insurance policy in the industry. 3 million insurance protection for all parties. in a very rare incidence where something happens to a dog, it gets injured, we cover it under our policy. it's a far better experience, they're in a loving home instead of being trapped in a cage and the coverage is better. melissa: i understand they can sit up to three dogs at a time. it sounds like you've thought of everything. we'll follow this one. good luck to you. thanks for coming on. the bill cosby fall out,

big business. now distancing itself from the tv legend and some say the damage control has only just begun. more money on this story coming up

melissa: the fog continues for former tv star bill cosby. they're all dropping the tv dad after allegations of sexual abuse. collateral damage doesn't end there. i mean, i guess because in another life i was an actor when something like this happens, they cancel all the reruns and all the shows. i think of all the people that won't get paid. there were all these people that were lined up for these shows he was going. the dollar figure. there's a ton of collateral damage that's unrelated to cosby himself. right? >> it ripples through the whole empire,

particularly those people that were going to be a part of that sitcom. it's funny because bill cosby is untouchable for so long. and even nbc running away because he's now damaged goods. melissa: has he den -- these aren't new allegations. is this one of the reasons that we haven't seen him so much and now, you know, he's trying to make a come back and it's not going to happen? >> they're getting a lot of media attention for the first time especially with high profile people like janice dickinson coming out with entertainmentment tonight. >> i have the feeling that coz by who hasn't been charged with anything. tried and convicted in the press. because of that, all these corporate entities are running away from him. as more women come out with these stories. some of them 20, 30 years old. you have to wonder, are they all lying?
