amazon. entrepreneur mike make outlets decided to honor innovators who defy convention i creating what he calls rule breaker awards and every year he gives awards to whom? >> we recognize the greatest people this country has toff offer call rule breakers, people that are changing the industry rules for their industry. they find us online, apply, and we recognize the best of the best. john: my gave an award to the creators of the company called rent below. ♪site john: a website that lets you rent stuff for $15, a fishing pole for aa day, $5 for a power drill, and the other side of that, it allows people to use stuff hav without having to pay big bucks to buy it.o this seems so obvious to me.

>> you would think so,so, but they have not. most of the things we use go idle. the pen in your hand is not use most of the time. there is value in that.else. they have started this sharing economy, stuff that you have the do not use is valuable and can be rented out to someone else. john: and there are other companies. how come you pick this one?nothy >> they applied.applied. they are exploiting the opportunity to get exposure. do not sit idle. be out there. john: he also gave an award to the maker of floating rubber ducky's like this, ducky's like this, company that has the nerve to promote itself the star wars music. the ad points out, while the traditional rubber ducky wasas made in america, today everyone is made overseas. overseas. this company is bringing the industry back to the us. >> yes, we can. john: these are some of the other products that they sell. here is what it looks like out of the box.they get

why do they get an award? >> different is better. different gets noticed. we have had enough rubber ducky's in our lifetime. this is a company that has decided to put a brand-new spin on it. by s john: and he does not pay mr. t or pay these people. apparently they are happy to become rubber ducky's. john: conan o'brien called and asked if they could produce hundreds of these were his show.for john: mike advertised that he will give his rule breaker award only to for-profit companies.d you broke your own rule. >> we are going around collecting all of the things that hospitals needle over the world, and we have it in so much abundance in the united states that we cannot use it.it. we are picking things up from here in delivering the air.

john: this is obviously a good idea. >> when this application kaman and i learned there was a not-for-profit conducting a let -- industrial medical waste that was now going overseas and serving people, it had to be recognized. we change the rules on the spot. john: it made me wonder why they are throwing a stuff in america. we call the head. america puts expiration dates on everything, even stainless steel scissors, adult diapers.aid of the the hospitals have to toss them out because they are afraid of the fda and the accreditation committee. >> the horrible result of a litigious society that we live in, but i was thrilled to hear other nations could use our waste. john: you are a rule breaker yourself. you self published a book and she did. >> ii called barnes and nobles and said, i came out o with a great book.hed they literally laughed at me on the phone. we don't take self published

authors.at i called my friends. we went to all the barnes and nobles in the area and start the books on the shelves. then three or six was later i got a phone call from barnes & noble. i remember the caller id popping up and i answered in a fear. they said we have a problem. w they said to we are selling your book. we don't no how, but we need 30003,000 copies today. i got to every shelf in every barnes & noble's in the country. john: you put a price tag on o.and they sold it >> that is exactly it. i'm not suggesting it for other people. john: here is one more of> his award winners. i do not understand how it makes money.i don't unders fox's rick reisman did a story on it.here, >> started this company. starte company. they don't want people to drink and drive. nine different cities around the country, places people can take a free ride to the beach.

>> not just to the john: they are now in many other places. s. these men run the free ride. i don't get it. how can you make money? >> we use electric cars which cuts out the cost of fuel. we work with various brands to wrap the vehicles in advertisements. there's video ads on the inside of cars. >> obnoxious things glaring at me. >> you get no free ride. >> you're handing out samples of products and that still pays for itself, advertisers willing to cover your profit and driver and everything. >> you see the outside ad, try a product, video ad. we like to think we create a service that reaches consumers in various ways. >> now you're in new york, florida, new jersey, california. regulators coming after you? >> not so much.

>> what we've seen is welcome open arms and always a free ride. that gets around a lot of regulations. >> i shouldn't have so much trouble with this concept. i worked for years in commercial-free tv and the advertisers paid my salary. we all came out ahead. it's just hard to believe that advertising can pay for all this. you're actually making money, a profit. >> a profit? 1%? >> we're growing. >> thank you, alex, james, mike. so far we've talked about rule breakers who broke business rules. but it's a very different thing to break government's rules because government is force. government puts people in jail. when an entrepreneur created something called silk road, a website where people used bitcoins to buy pretty much everything, government investigators got upset. >> investigators describe it as a black market bazaar. revenue for the site is estimated at $1.2 billion. >> most of that money came from sales of illegal drugs and

that's why the government wanted it shut down. they got it shut down. they arrested the founders. most americans support that crack down. >> 31-year-old ross albrecht founded a drug dealing website called silk road, anyone, minors included, could buy narcotics and have them sent directly to their home. how nice. federal judge in manhattan heard the case, eventually sentenced mr. albrecht to life in prison without parole. >> this is a judge that finally got it right. >> we all agree here? life in prison without parole. >> they are all happy this guy should be locked out. the only thing is bitcoin center says, no, silk road is a good thing. >> that's correct, 100%. well, it makes the streets a lot safer. >> how? >> when you have prohibition, basically it leads to violent gangs taking the place of what would otherwise be peaceful trade. he's an entrepreneur and

innovator who broke rules and basically did what the war on drugs hasn't achieved in 40 years. he's made the streets safer. is that not what the war on drugs is all about or punishing people who take drugs. >> a judge said no way it decreases violence. >> she's incorrect. lots of studies show people that use the site are six times less likely to encounter physical violence, five times less likely to encounter life threatening situations. they definitely made the streets a safer place. it's common sense. whenever you have prohibition of anything, you're basically replacing violence with peaceful trade and exchange. >> also you had the reputation feedback from users, so the fbi tested the stuff that was being sold, drugs, and said, this is unusually pure. it's not the usual poison we get. >> that's correct. people don't know what they get when they buy it on the street.

there's no system of accountability. what silk road provided was accountability, akin to ebay, users reviews. people used what they were getting. so it made it safer for drug dealers as well. >> the same judge said to russ albright, for those considering stepping into your shoes, they need to understand there will be very severe consequences. it's sort of odd in that after they closed down silk road, other sites opened up. now there are more of them. they keep shutting them down but there are more of these site. >> that's correct. you see a 200% increase in the number of online sales for drugs. so they failed and yet they still persist in these policies that just don't work and punish innovators. >> he also allegedly paid to have hits done on people. we're against that -- that rule breaking we're not for. >> i heard those rumors in the media.

he was never indicted for murder. >> prosecutors didn't actually charge him with that. >> that's right. people are presumed innocent until they are found guilty. the idea that we should be promoting him as a murderer when he's never been charged with murder seems like a crazy idea to me. >> assuming he didn't murder anyone or try to murder anyone, what if his site sold not just drugs but machine guns and explosives. still okay with it? >> those things were expressly forbidden on the site. that's why i think it's such a tragedy he's been sentenced to life in prison. >> thank you, naomi of the bitcoin center. to keep this going, facebook or twitter, use #rule breakers. let people know what you think. coming up, street art from the right. breaking the the rules with posters like abortion barbie. also teenagers who make millions breaking show business

rule. the company with almost no rule. you choose your salary and your boss. how can that possibly work? is the company about to fail? no, i'm surprised it's thriving. all that when we come back. we live in a world of mobile technology, but it is not the device that is mobile, it is you.

american entrepreneurs do

try all kinds of new things but sometimes to find really radical ideas. we have to look overseas. in this case to brazil where ricardo owns a company that used to sell washing machines but now sells all kinds of things. when he was 20 years old he took over the company from his father. at the time semco was in trouble of going bankrupt. he turned it around by breaking lots of old rules. ricardo, like what? >> why do they need to have a boss they don't like. why aren't they involved in choosing bosses. why can't they evaluate their work constantly? why can't they work through a task, instead of showing up for hours a day. why do we have this old trill-style system when we're in a completely different world? >> because it makes sense. the first thing you do is get rid of the dress code.

i can understand. that's simple. what do you mean they get to pick their boss? >> you think how a person comes, monday, john is going to be your boss. live with it. that's very different from saying, guys, we need a boss, right? let's go out and see some of these people and let's all together, we're going to be the team, let's talk to this person. a lot of times we'll have them come visit the company lots of times, then let's decide together. we've had a record of less than 2% turnover a year against 18%en our business because people choose their bosses and evaluate them every six months. >> workers choose their own salary? >> well, that's just an extension of the same rational. if you tell people, you're transparent and have freedom and say, look, this is how much everybody makes in the company. here is how much you make compared to what you would be making at another place of work. three, here is what the company makes, what we can afford.

anyone who has these three pieces of information is totally able as an adult to choose their right salary. there's no use to haggle, negotiate about it et cetera. >> wait a minute. if i pick my salary, pay me $100 million. >> that's fine. every six months, don't forgot, people are deciding whether they want $100 million. >> people intend to figure out where they belong and make reasonable requests? >> which they do and have been doing now for 30 years. i don't remember more than a handful of problems in 30 years with thousands of people. folks are good about this. give them the right information, you're open about it, they will react accordingly. >> no one checks expenses, no storeroom pad locks, don't audit petty cash accounts. don't people steal. >> let's say your world view is

2% of people steal then 2% of people steal as well. the difference is i would have to make the other 98 go through searches, pad locks, slow down the company enormously, take away all dignity in working with these people to find the 2%. these 2% tend to be weeded out by those people anyway. because anonymously when they put together the the people they want for the next six months they do away with the people they figure are probably stealing anyway. >> i'm clueless. hearing this, i would think, no way this can work. and yet you've been successful. profits are up. the company has grown from a million dollar business to a billion dollar. >> it's grown tremendously. thousands of people. there's no issue from that standpoint. it just that people scratch their head and they say but why did we have all this other silly stuff. it's not necessary at all. as we did away with this stuff,

we found that we could all concentrate on what we do. we had to compete. it been a difficult environment. we've grown 31% a year by saying let's concentrate on what we all need to do to make this work, you know. >> 41% a year, even through the recession in brazil. in america, companies have human resources departments that would have a heart attack over this stuff. you don't even have an hr department. >> that's right. we don't want anybody having heart attacks, so we did away with the whole department. >> in america online shoe seller trying a less topdown management system. >> eliminates titles and encourages self-management. this sounds awesome, right? you don't have a boss to yell at you. not all employees thought so. 14% of the company's workforce has already accepted zappos employee buyout and walked out. >> that's kind of a failure, 14%

of the company left. zappos said, no, we didn't want those people. if they aren't dedicated, fine. >> i went over to talk to their staff in las vegas. they are going through a difficult time because they are using a system which makes it necessary to log everything in. they are going through a period where it's difficult to adapt to this new stage. but generically the heart is in the right place, which is to say you can't possibly run companies like alfred sloan ran general moments or welch won ge. that is finished. ask them how happy they are working at each of these places, you'd be dismayed. >> thank you, ricardo sembler. coming up teenagers breaking show business rules and making big bucks yamering like this. >> black, dangly earrings. so cute i'm going to die.

good. very good. you see something moving off the shelves and your first thought is to investigate the company. you are type e*. yes, investment opportunities can be anywhere... or not. but you know the difference. e*trade's bar code scanner. shorten the distance between intuition and action. e*trade opportunity is everywhere.

we all feel the calling to build something great. ♪

today's best known rule breakers in business are sharing economy companies like uber, airbnb\. they keep winning happy customers. everywhere they go, established companies want them to obey the old rule, get mad. sometimes they get rule makers to ban the new business. lots of cities ban airbnb rentals. our procedure wen to the town to learn why. >> want to make money renting out a home in your room? you can't in utah. >> st. george passed a law you

can't rent your home fewer than 30 days. wait a second, it's your home. isn't that your castle? can't you do what you want? >> i found myself with a big house, underutilized asset. >> karina decided to rent her basement through airbnb. >> i want toia what i've got, what i own. i want to lempl that. >> ricki checked out her ad, found great reviews. this is my favorite place to stay in st. george. it's spacious, clean, the nicest host. >> if you look at profile ratings, it's all five gold stars. >> hey, you made it. you found us all right. >> so ricki decided to stay there. they gave her the secret code to the door. >> you use your code we gave you to get in. come on in. i'll show you around. >> wow, this is big. >> yeah. you've got the whole basement to yourself. it's locked off from the upstairs. so you won't have any kids coming down here at all.

hosts. we see them. we know them. >> i will always go through and read their reviews other people have given on them and how good a guess they were. >> rikki was actually a bad guest because she didn't pay. fox lawyers won't let her pay because her airbnb rental was against the law. we're not allowed to brat rules. why is the rental illegal? >> this is your house. you own this property. did you missouri what you were doing was illegal? >> heavens no. once we started this, i never even thought to ask anybody. what free loving american would even think to question would this be legal. if you were afraid of us and came to stay in our basement, that wouldn't have been violating an ordinance. if you're paying me money, all of a sudden we're violating an ordinance. >> what's up with that? ricky wept to ant to ask the ma >> i stayed at the bnb last night. they didn't charge me anything,

innovators. a few who lean left -- most street artist toss lean left -- have being rich and famous. shepherd, you know about his art from this image. he's worth millions. he doesn't do street art anymore but he was recently arrested for putting up posters in new york. this shows a sad looking artist who shows his chance of success has been canceled, presumably by rich people, but it's the rich who buy his paintings. brad pitt and angelina jolie spend six figures for his art. clearly most street artists are leftist. some are not. here is a pro-choice libertarian. he does street art like this. he put copies of this up at

hollywood. hollywood welcomes abortion barbie. he joins us now. this must have ticked people off in hollywood. >> it did. i had fun doing it. >> here is another one you did of ted cruz. you say you like ted cruz, and yet this is weird. >> i would listen to this man filibuster, or just take on the establishment in washiton. i didn't see a guy with tattoos or muscular by any means, but i saw a lot of strength and rebellion in what he was doing. and that's what i came up with. >> i found senator cruz would not like this and probably wouldn't see it but i'm wrong on both counts. on fox and friends, cruz said this. >> i was out in california a few weeks ago and there was some street art that was a little unusual. i've got to tell you, it inspired me. i'm proud to stand -- i've got to say my wife was fairly

astonished. >> he was showing his tattoo, which it turns out was not real. at least he played along. i doubt hillary clinton will play along with what you're doing now. tell us about that. >> i think outside of her campaign headquarters -- >> last night at 2:00 in the morning putting up these posters, the royals, meaning we've had enough royalty. >> i mean, she's looking to be cor nated. i'm questioning why she's not debating other democrats. are we supposed to coronate this woman? >> you put it up in her headquarters. >> i don't know who did that. i happened to be around. >> you hung flying monkeys. >> i'm too short to do something like that. i see these flying monkeys kind of like being her cheering squad. it harkens back to the whole

wicked witch of the west. >> she's the wicked witch and her campaign staff are the flying monkeys. >> i guess they are supporters. it's meant to be a joke. >> what you do is wrong. you're defacing private property. the royals you pasted up over a movie poster for the fantastic four. that's a fox production. you're stealing from us. >> you're talking about rule breaking, i guess. when you're parroting our rules that i've been told year after decade that i'm supposed to follow, it's like republicans aren't supposed to do that, only democrats do that. republicans tell me -- >> because you're supposed to respect private property. >> okay. that's for you. >> municipal government spends lot of money removing graffiti and other markings. los angeles said it spent $28 million on that. >> i would say 98.99% of them

are leftist. i'm not here to tell you what i do is right. but you look at hollywood, you look at the entertainment industry, fashion, the music industry, they completely -- they own it. there are no voices speaking to young people with a message that resonates in a way that helps the right wing cause or the republicans. i would like to think 10 years from now some kid will say, hey, that guy influenced me. then we have more people out there creating the kind of art that resonates with our side of the political stint. >> even your t-shirt is art, a picture of a killer. what's the point? >> it took you a while to get it. >> okay. we get it now. you once said you want to be as

mean as bill maher. >> i'm tired of the same art out there, the american flag, eagle, little fat white kid eating pancakes. you know, i want to go in there with brass knuckles. the reason we get our teeth kicked in all the time with the left, we fight with pillows and they fight with brass knuckles. i was hoping to give them teeth. i'm hoping my art does that. >> thanks. neck americans biggest rule breakers. people w

we, the people of the united states, america with us created by rule breakers. founders risked lives with declaration of independence. some were killed. secure the blessings of liberty. declaring independence not only says to heck with you to the british central planners, the declaration also affirmed we individuals have unalienable rights and we do. the right to life, liberty, pursuit of happiness. but what's happened to those freedoms over 200 plus years. we've lost many, because today bureaucrats say the constitution, this is not enough. we must obey all these other rules. hundreds of thousands of pages of them. the bureaucrats keep passing
