you've seen the headlines telling you obamacare is great for the economy, your health and for your finances but a new study shows that the affordable care act is not all affordable. leading pay cuts for most workers. here to break it down is fox news contributor guy benson. thanks for joining us this morning. >> hey, tucker, good to be with you. >> according to the numbers we have, the affordable care act will increase income for the lowest 20% of earners and decrease it for everyone else. a wealth transfer to obama voters basically. >> i think that's right and the
3:17 am
big numbers that everyone was talking about for the latter part of this past week were the cbo numbers and for good reason, 2.3 million full time workers, the equivalent thereof exiting the u.s. workforce because of obamacare, slower hiring and gross. $2 trillion price tag. those are all important statistics but the study you just talked about, tucker, is from the brookings institution which is a center left organization and i think it might hit home and be more relevant to the average person because we're not talking about esoteric numbers and what the larger economy might do. what these studied showed in the analysis was if you were in the top eight deciles, they break it down into ten -- unless you're in the bottom two of those, you're getting an income cut, because of obamacare, and not only that, tucker, the group that was actually hit the hardest out of everyone were people in the seventh and eighth
3:18 am
decile making between $21,000 and $61,000. that's not the rich. >> exactly. this is to my original point which is there's a political element here so the obama constituency, the core of obama's votes come from the lowest on the income scale and the highest, the very rich and the poor voted for obama. everyone else didn't. so is it any surprise that obamacare helps the lowest, doesn't affect the highest and shafts the middle? >> well, i mean it should, i think, wake a couple people up in the middle class, because democrats talk endlessly point middle class. they claim at least to be champions of america's hard-working taxpayers and middle class americans, but this is a redistribution scheme that specifically targets the middle class, they are paying more. they are financing other people to leave the workforce, they are spending more on health care
3:19 am
because of this law, and i just want to remind viewers, i'm sure you remember this, in 2008, barack obama was running for president. he was in ohio and there was a plumber, joe, who confronted him and they had a chat on his front lawn talking about taxation and economic policy and the president said, you know, when you spread the wealth around, it's good for everybody. and i think a lot of people in the middle class who voted for the president said, well, what he probably means is spreading the rich's wealth around and maybe i'm okay with that and i think what obamacare is showing in stark relief is the spreading of wealth affects most of the country in the case of obamacare, not just those terrible elites at the top. >> that's right, who voted for obama, by the way. >> they did. they did. >> to help the 20%. that's bad math. guy, thanks for joining us this morning. >> my pleasure. well, should stores require i.d. to use food stamps? that's next. plus, she shocked her

3:25 am
wasting and anorexia doesn't mean i'm starving, it's a behavior pattern that takes you that far and when you do that and you starve those muscles you're starving the heart muscle. it's a muscle without adequate protein, you lose it. >> that's why the coaches look so shocked. >> that's not what they're teaching her to do. actually as unhealthy as being overweight. >> when she left the show she went home for 3 1/2 months and dropped another 45 pounds. isn't it healthier to be a little overweight than -- >> clinically speaking she is not, under 18.5% body fat for her height and that is underweight which means you're not supplying the nutrients to feed the heart muscle which is the only muscle that doesn't regenerate. so if you damage that tissue at this level, second, she spent more time in the gym than she spent at work. >> four times a day she was working out. >> which isn't the worst story i've heard. >> that's four hours. >> that's what she admits to and i mean to be driven by money

welcome back, everybody. the labor department released new monthly unemployment numbers yesterday and the jobless rate is down to 6.6%. a five-year low, but experts, some do, say this number is misleading because thousands of people have been leaving the workforce each month reducing the number of people the government counts as unemployed. so what does this really say about the state of the economy? joining us now to weigh in on this is john tammany of re realclaremarkets.com. >> great to be here. >> 6.6 is better than 14% unemployment rate. it seems like things are getting better. >> yeah, but it's still a very abnormally high number and there's a reason for it. unemployment is high because government error is making it far too expensive for businesses to add workers. one way to look at it, if
3:47 am
walmart is having trouble selling televisions on its shelves it reduces to prices to levels that lure in buyers. there's willing workers but government policies are making it too expensive for businesses to add those workers. >> okay, let's go through some of the numbers again, in january, 113,000 jobs were added, but 185,000 were predicted. in december, that was bad. 75,000 jobs were added, but 196,000 were predicted. numbers are way off. how does the fact that, you know, obamacare kicked in this january? does that factor in? >> it factors in in a very big way. whether you love or hate obamacare is almost immaterial. it represents a huge cost burden faced by businesses to add a worker today means taking on health care costs that didn't previously exist. and so it's very substantial cost that businesses have to cover now that they didn't have to before. it's making it too expensive to hire workers they'd otherwise
3:48 am
add. >> what about the unemployment benefits? how does that factor into these numbers. >> it factors in in a big way. incentives matter. if you know you're getting a check from government, you're far less likely to be, "a," urgent in your search for a new job but less likely to adjust your wage demands to new ryals. every dollar they pay in is an extra dollar that businesses have to offer them to make it more attractive for them to get back into the workforce. >> can you quantify? has research been done about that, though? if i haven't had a job for five years i'm going for the job over the benefits? is that just me? >> you're right and i think a lot of people are like you, but economics occurs on the margin, a good place to look is north carolina. last july they substantially reduced unemployment benefit payouts and the result was unemployment was 8.9% in the state in july. at present it's 6.9%.
3:49 am
without that check coming in, individuals were far more likely to adjust their wage demands to existing realities and made it less expensive for businesses to bring them back into the workforce. i mean it's got stress that unemployment is unnatural and when it's high like this it is by definition a creation of government policy. >> thanks. coming up, the president has tapped him to be the next ambassador to argentina. >> you've been to argentina? >> senator, i haven't had the opportunity yet to be there. i traveled pretty extensively around the world but i've not yet had the chance. >> is he really qualified to carry out this job? we'll talk about it. he took a wrong turn and wound up in canada. now this army vet may find himself behind bars for three years because of the gun he had inside his car. should he be let off the hook or

4:16 am
for welfare for civilians, the u.s. government is very, very responsive. i want to put up numbers on the screen. if you apply for food stamps you get them in 30 days or less. snap benefits, you get them in seven days. 30 dais for temporary cash assistance in some days. 45 days for energy assistance. veterans benefits. the number of pending claims -- 675,891. of those, almost 400,000 are 125 days old. the bottom line is if the you apply for food stamps you get instant service. for veterans benefits, it takes forever. what does this tell us? >> our governmental priorities are wrong. part of the problem is internal to the v.a. it is so bureaucrat tick, paperwork p intensive. they will tell you there is a
4:17 am
form for everything and that's part of of the problem. recently, i talked with the v. a. and i had a letter i submitted to them on a case in the last week of november. it was finally processed and brought into the record last wednesday. it's unbelievable. the time it takes to get things processed. the entire system seems to be pointing towards the methodology rather than results. >> if you're an ailing veteran and you show up at a v.a. hospital, do you have to show i.d.? do you have to go through paperwork? democrats are saying showing i.d. to use food stamps is discriminatory and mean but vets have to jump through hoops to get benefits. >> even to enter a have felt a. hospital you have to show identification. either a v.a. i.d. card or a retired military i.d. or oh active duty card just to get in. once you get there. you may or may not be eligible
4:18 am
for benefits. it can take a year or more to be declared eligible for benefits. in many cases fit's turned down initially the opponent process is another two to three years. tucker, no veteran should come off active duty and is have a break in medical coverage, especially for somebody who was injured either physically or psychologically on active duty. that happens all the tile. >> this is baffling to me. i know at least one high level person at the veterans administration. it's a veteran. patriotic american, a decent person who wants to help. there are a bunch of those at the v.a. so why can't they defeat this bureaucracy? >> well, you said the key word -- bureaucracy. the problem sven from the secretary on down they have to fight the many, many rules they have written. you have to fight the many forms that are required. it's just gotten to the point where the system has become so
4:19 am
over burdened, it just cannot function. the answer is to go back and make more realtime benefits available to ensure that there is no interruption in meddle call care. these guys should not be deprived of a way to make a living especially with physical or psychological issues they should receive a stipend. >> a country that treats veterans at least as well as food the stamp recipients would be a nice place to live. >> thank you for having me. >> it's a story stirring a big debate. a mom lets her 6-year-old sleep in her bed while her husband stays in anotherle room. is this bad for the child? what about the marriage? if you have to ask, wake up. that's deranged. we'll debate it. and you couldn't keep your plan. now you may not be able to keep your insurance company. major insurers are considering drop out of obamacare entirely. we have details coming up.

5:02 am
man. here he is face down, handcuffed wheeled into a hospital in istanbul. he said that he had a bomb on board that flight that was out of the ukraine and heading to sochi. then tried and failed to break into the locked cockpit. officials say that the man was drunk. despite the threat, the quick-thinking pilot tricked the man by turning off the in-flight map system. turned the plane around, landed it and all 110 passengers back in istanbul, it's original destination. no bomb was found. a man hunt is on in virginia for a man accused of killing a woman at her house in broad daylight. police releasing this sketch of the suspect described as an older man, balding with gray hair and a full beard. he's accused of killing ruth ann lodado. he knocks on her door, she opens the door, he fires the shot and runs off. no word yet on whether there's a
5:03 am
relationship between the suspect and those victims. a u.s. army veteran facing up to three years in a canadian prison after he brought a gun across the border. something he says was not intentional. after mistakenly crossing the border they asked him whether he had any weapons which he denied. after a search of his car they did uncover a small handgun, leading him to be arrested at the scene. he said he forgot the gun was in his car. so should he do the time or be let off the hook? we had a fairly balanced debate earlier. >> accidentally went over the bridge. >> tried to turn around. said i want to turn around and the border patrol said no, you can't and then they arrest him because he had a gun in his car? completely wrong, let him go. >> they had a right to search his car because he's now in the border, whether it's the gps or not. >> he faces up to three years in prison if convicted. and a major olympic oops as the fifth olympic ring fails to
5:04 am
open there at the opening ceremonies. they were supposed to turn into these rings and then explode into dazzling fireworks. the trouble is one of those snowflakes, the one on the top right, never turned into the ring and all of them -- none of them burst into fireworks. >> it's such a metaphor for russia, isn't it? >> well, you wouldn't even know it, mike, if you watched the ceremony on russian tv. they didn't show it. instead the network -- they aired an editted footage from a rehearsal so the folks at russia never even knew it. >> these are the folks who make russian airplanes, keep in mind. >> never, ever fly them. they don't have seat belts, they have little ropes you just tie together and hang on for free life. >> governor, thanks for joining us. >> great to be with you, always a pleasure. >> the white house is thinking about extending another obamacare fix.
5:05 am
this one through, probably by coincidence, the 2016 presidential election. >> has nothing to do with the elections, whatsoever, it is simply a coincidence. they're doing it all because of the love of the people and to protect us once again. first of all, it's illegal. the president can't arbitrarily decide which parts of the law, his own law, by the way, that he doesn't want to enforce because it's going to make his administration and his signature program look as bad as it really is. and i think it's going to be important to find somebody withstanding to sue and say you can't do this. now, that's the tricky part. who has the standing to make the lawsuit? but i don't think there's any way in the world the president or the administration would be able to win that lawsuit because anybody, even a third-day law student knows that once something is in the statute and the word is "shall" not "may," then it's not the option of saying i don't have to do that. >> who would have the standing to do that? >> somebody that has injured by the lack of implementation.
5:06 am
it could be someone, either an insurance company that set up for it and then lost a lot of money because of the changes that were arbitrary. it could be a person who said they wanted to file for obamacare and then couldn't or made it more complicated because of the delays. but that would be the trick. and i hope somebody does, because i think if nothing else, congress should challenge this. that's one of the reasons that republicans must take the senate this year. they must do that. >> aetna announcing they might be pulling out as well. >> well, a lot of insurance companies are not going to be able to afford it. aetna is the latest one. but what we're going to see is a lot of insurance companies for several reasons. one, when you tell an insurance company that you have to insurer people and you can't make exclusions for pre-existing conditions and you can't make any lifetime limits, that's really an unheralded, just blank check that you've asked the insurance company to sign. insurance -- people forget it works on a regulated basis. it's a highly regulated
5:07 am
industry. if they make too much money, the state regulators will go in and say you're charging too much. if they don't make enough, the state regulators will say you have to charge more because you don't have enough assets to cover your potential losses. >> are they not thinking this through? when you think about the pre-existing conditions, i could get injured, i could not have insurance. i could be injured, in the ambulance make the phone call and sign up for obamacare. >> suppose you called and said i'd like to insurer my home. what kind of home do you have? well, until it burned down yesterday, it was a very nice four-bedroom home. but i'd like to get some insurance so you'll rebuild it for free. people laugh at that and say it's ludicrous. it's equally ludicrous to think you can get insured after your risk has increased. we need to take care of people but there's a way to do it. put them in a pool but it doesn't have to be by boogering up the whole market. >> what did you make of victoria

nuland gets caught talking on a cell phone, uses a bad word. the state department unable apparently to secure her phone sufficient to keep the russians from spying on her. to add to that we saw a parade of nominees to ambassadorial posts, obama nominees, go before congress, before the senate in their confirmation hearing and make fools out of themselves, totally ignorant of the countries they're supposed to be representing. >> you know, i felt sorry for them. i blame the administration for not preparing them better. that's poor preparation. i don't have a big burr in my saddle about the fact that you have people who are donors, because i'm going to be honest with you. tucker, you know this to be true. this happens in every presidential administration. people don't get appointed to ambassadorships and the kennedy board because they happen to be the most knowledgeable people about that particular topic. it is a way that you reward the people who helped you get there. a lot of people can become good ambassadors. many of them will work with the
5:09 am
career foreign service peep e many of our ambassadors are career foreign service people. but it's a job that frankly requires a person to be pretty wealthy because it's an expensive thing to be an ambassador. >> is it really? >> the government doesn't pay? >> frankly the lifestyle that one must live to be an effective ambassador, you're not going to go down and appoint somebody who's making $60,000 a year to be an ambassador. they couldn't handle it. >> but what about the guy that's nominated to be the ambassador to argentina. this is what he said. he's never been there. >> here's what i would add, have you been to argentina? >> senator, i haven't had the opportunity yet to be there. i've traveled pretty extensively around the world but haven't yet had a chance. >> should you have traveled to the country where you're going to be the ambassador or is that important? >> i think if you went back and looked at previous administration, a lot of people have been appointed ambassadors to countries whose names they
5:10 am
couldn't pronounce at the time of the appointment. he should have said, no, i haven't been there but i did stay at a holiday inn express or say i had some argentine beef and it was really good. >> and he raised $500,000 for the obama campaign. like you said it's fairly common. >> it's been going on. president clinton, 26% of his ambassadors were donors. 37% of obama's ambassador's were donors. >> what were bush's? >> bush was 30%. george w. bush was 30%. there had been incompetence but like a soap opera producer is going to be representing us in hungary. >> i think she should have said i'm hungry right now. >> i have a feeling senator john mccain would not -- >> cleta mitchell will talk about the irs scandal. the first time she's spoken out and chubby checker will be with us. we will be twisting again.

adequately vet them quickly. we've had case after case. the guy that shot up the cia in 1993, applies for political asylum and then kills two cia officers, injures three others. the 1993 bombing at the world trade center, kills six, injures over a thousand. the tsarnaev brothers, as soon as they have political asylum, they go home. nobody bothers to look. the house judiciary committee just held a hearing on december 12th about how members of the drug cartels from mexico are getting political asylum in the united states. i want america to be compassionate but they need to remember, our government needs to remember, especially this administration needs to remember we have immigration laws for two primary purposes. protect innocent lives and the jobs of americans. if you're not going to deal with the national security implications, then you're undermining national security, putting americans at risk and they don't seem to get it. they are violating all of the --
5:18 am
>> that sounds crazy. >> listen, they're violating all of the recommendations and findings of the 9/11 commission. >> the u.s. government really has only one job and that's to look after the welfare of american citizens. >> you would think. >> that's it. >> you would think. >> so why is letting in refugees or people who claim they are -- the refugees -- half the world has refugee status. why do i have a moral obligation to do that as an american? i'm totally confused by this. >> well, i could make a case for helping people who are truly at risk if you can vet them and other countries need to chip in and help. my grandmother died in the holocaust. i think if more was done back then there might have been a different outcome. six million jews and 13 million people died, so my pointing is i understand the need to be compassionate, the desire, but we must never allow compassion to compromise national security and we are. and we're doing it consistently. and the 9/11 commission even warned us that political asylum
5:19 am
was one of the methods of choice by terrorists seeking to enter the united states and embed themselves so you'd think they would say let's tighten up. instead now they're lowering the bar. >> by the way, these people, many of them, will become voters and trust me they'll be democratic voters. the numbers show that. >> you've also got the republicans that want comprehensive reform. it's both sides. >> i agree with you. i agree with you. there's no defending that. thank you, mr. cutler. >> thank you very much. have a good weekend. >> you wound me up, holy smokes. so should stores require i.d. for people to use food stamps? that debate comes up next. then, they're open 24 hours and have everything you need but the convenience comes at a cost. we'll tell you what not to buy at the drugstore in order to save money. we have the numbers, so stay tuned.

5:25 am
drugstore. you'll pay 87 cents from the warehouse club. >> how about cleaning products? >> clorox wipes, $2 less at walmart than at the drugstore. if you want to get a good deal, go to the dollar store. this would all be a dollar. >> i'd get school supplies when my kids were young all the time at the drugstore. >> you're spending a lot more because these three subject notebooks are about $5 at the drugstore. >> each? that's ridiculous. >> $5 each. a pack of pens is going to be about $9. >> that's definitely dollar store stuff. >> the dollar store, you get it all for a dollar. >> how many kids do you have? >> two. >> five notebooks each at $5, you're going to spend $50 on notebooks for your children. >> here's the weird one, don't buy drugs at a drugstore. >> over-the-counter drugs? >> even your prescription drugs. just look at the difference. so your allergy medicine, you're

5:33 am
positive leads to divorce. but things stress me out. i imagine how stressful it must be for a parent when you have to think about saving for a wedding, saving for college, putting clothes on someone else's back including your own. that stresses me out. but you always make me feel better about taking that step or having a family because you're so positive about it. >> because i have an awesome wife. >> but you're always like one day at a time, just be positive and it's so true. my hub is like that as well. >> when married couples had children, happiness declines because there's less time together. >> you should be miserable. how many kids do you have? >> four. >> and the happiest married couples have been married less than five years. >> except if you stick with it when your children leave and you're done with your responsibilities and can enjoy them and your grandchildren, then happiness returned, similar to newlywed happiness. >> i should be the happenest because i've been married less than five years, i don't have
5:34 am
children, i have a college degree, so does my husband, and my husband is employed. and i am very happy. i love my life, i do. >> just don't have kids. >> it stresses me out because all the money stuff and the savings. i know it will be fine, but it's just -- >> we should also point out in the interest of honesty, but happy couples slept together a lot. that's what it said. that's not a surprise. >> you've been married how many years? >> 23 years. >> is it still, you know. >> i have a happy marriage. >> too much information! too much information! >> literally happy couples did not let kids sleep in the bed. how do you celebrate your partner's good news? it's important three times a day to celebrate them and celebrate their good news. >> you're excited for them. be nice to people. >> it's nice to be nice to the nice. now to our headlines, the former police officer accused of killing a man for texting during a movie will remain behind bars. a judgel for 71-year-old curtis reeves who pleaded not guilty to second-degree murder charges.
5:35 am
this comes as the prosecution released new surveillance video showing the moment chad oulson threw popcorn at reeves. reeves is then seen firing his gun. he later showed little remorse, if any, in an interview with police. >> if i had it to do over again, it would never have happened. >> you don't get do-overs. >> reeves plans to argue self-defense. against popcorn. want to use food stamps? how about showing a photo i.d.? a group of lawmakers in arizona hoping to make that a requirement. they say it will help reduce fraud, but opponents of the bill are already complaining. they say it would be hard to implement and it's unfair to the minors who need access to the aid. a group of seniors in washington is fighting the state. it is is, right? a group is fighting the state to keep their bridge game going. the everett city council banned

card games but a local senior center kept playing, not knowing that the ban was in existence. >> rebels. >> and applied to them. well, two months ago, the state gambling commission shut them down, saying the games were illegal. the senior center is now fighting to get that ban lifted. how cute. >> unbelievable. well, this winter has been just especially harsh around all parts of the united states, and a 4-year-old sums up how everyone shoveling snow feels right now. >> jesus, make it warm! >> jesus, make it warm, he says. he even paused for a second after that. how cute is he? and his parents aren't laughing. i was waiting on them to laugh. do you want to hear it again? >> his parents are mad because hurry up and finish the driveway. >> i know. how old is he? >> child labor laws. >> i love that he stood there
5:37 am
expecting it to happen. he's like -- >> that is belief. >> that really is. i said the same thing right when i came out here because it's cold, guys. it is really cold still across so much of the country. we've been talking about what a cold winter it is. it's also a really snowy winter. take a look at the maps. places like chicago and detroit and indianapolis, that bar on the left is how much snow they have had this season so far. chicago, about 60 inches of snow. you typically would have had about 23 inches. detroit, 67 inches. should have had about 26. and it's so cold that snow isn't melting at all and there's more snow coming today and tomorrow, unfortunately. so the snow is here, the cold is here, no real signs of that pattern changing at all over the next couple weeks. sorry to tell you. today across the northeast starting off cool throughout the day. we'll see a few scattered showers or snow flurries move through parts of west virginia and pennsylvania. nothing that's going to cause any big problems. a few more of those snow showers tomorrow. down to the southeast there's

5:39 am
and saying look, she's wearing our bag. and someone said this is appalling. don't you understand why she's wearing the bag and where she's wearing it to? valentino said we did not know that's where that picture was taken. it's our mistake. now ugg on the other hand, those boots that all the women wear during the winter, they actually sent them to friends of philip seymour hoffman knowing that they would be going to the wake and to the funeral. >> wait, did anyone wear uggs to a funeral? >> they didn't, but that's what they were hoping for. an ugg insider told "the post" that was their objective. >> poor taste. >> i understand capitalism but let's be careful where we capitalize. >> how about clint eastwood saving a man's life, saving the day. >> he just made someone's day. >> in a mighty way. >> yes. he was in pebble beach at a golf tournament in california and there was a man choking on a piece of cheese of all things.

5:41 am

hi, everyone at home. these are the great people that put on our show. they are doing a fantastic job this morning on this saturday. first some quick headlines. jimmy fallon says good-bye to "late night." >> this is it. it's our last episode of "late night." i'm really going to miss being on tv at 12:37.
5:46 am
>> fallon taking a ten-daybreak before coming back as the host of "the tonight show." jay leno is vacating the post after 22 years behind the desk. he takes over "the tonight show" on february 17th. and good news, splurging with treats on the weekend might not hurt your waistline. a new study out of finland has found that as long as you make healthy choices during the weekday, going off your diet on the weekends won't hurt. so eat up today. and the study showed overall long-term habits made more of a difference than the short-term splurges. guys, up to you in the studio. >> let's go to magnolia for some cupcakes right after the show then. let's splurge on the weekend. imagine the government comes in to seize your backyard basically. it happened to our next guest. the city of very beach took jim ramsey's backyard, bull dozed it and built a highway ramp. at first it sounded like a fair deal. jim got a quarter of a million dollars, okay. but then the government came back for a refund, a big one.
5:47 am
it claims the land was overvalued and he should pay back $160,000 of the $250,000. jim is here this morning. so how long has the ramp been in your yard? >> well, they started surveying back in i believe it was 2009. >> and so you got it there. they gave you $250,000. they say it's added value to your house having an on-ramp in your yard. why do they say that? >> well, i don't know how they can say it adds value. would you like to look out your back door and see five lanes of traffic? >> no. >> they put those five lanes of traffic in there and they say it's added to the value. i don't think so. >> jeremy, i guess they could say, hey, you have real easy access to the freeway.
5:48 am
>> that's the part that's most outrageous. it's an interstate on and off-ramp, five lanes of traffic that runs 30 feet from their bedroom window. and the state claims that it enhances the value of the home as a home. >> so they gave you $250,000. how much do they want back? $160,000, right? >> $160,000 they're asking for back. >> wow, okay. listen, this is what they say to us, though. we called them, the virginia department of transportation has not asked for any money to be paid back. the jury will determine the value of the property and the amount owed to the landowner or to the virginia department of transportation, depending on what is decided in court. so when does this go to trial, jeremy? >> it goes to trial on monday and that statement is absolutely false that the state has given you. they did demand money back. they're using these tactics across the state to try to litigate owners into submission. and what they're doing is for citizen that say don't just accept their number, they're
5:49 am
trying to beat those citizens into submission. >> so jeremy, what's your argument going to be starting monday? >> our argument is simple. the state has misvalued the property, number one. they have been unfair to the ramseys, number two. and number three is a common sense argument that placing an interstate off-ramp 30 feet from somebody's bedroom certainly doesn't increase the value. i've never seen a realtor advertise a home as having a beautiful on/off-ramp through the yard. >> how has this affected, your wife is janet, how has this impacted your life? >> well, it's been a lot of stress, very stressful. it's been on my mind and hers also for roughly the last five years. you know, she has some health problems, as do i, and it's just hard to believe that they would come back almost five years later and want their money back. >> and want that kind of big money back. let us know what happens. the trial again starts on monday. thanks for being with us.

drop the candy, kid, because one school in connecticut cracking down on sweets this valentine's day. >> the principal of the school claims she's working to encourage healthy practices as well as manage food choices in classrooms where food allergies are present, in order to maintain a safe environment. there are no commas in that sentence, by the way. joining us now is stacy who has two kids who attend that school. at fourth grader and a second grader. stacy, thanks for joining us this morning. >> hi. thanks for having me. >> can you diagram that sentence for us? what does that mean? >> i just -- every year for valentine's day a letter comes home from the school nurse. encouraging healthy foods, but certainly not requiring it for valentine's day gifts. this year the same sort of note came home and slightly stronger worded in terms of not having candy.
5:55 am
and some notes came home from the teacher and reiterated the no candy issue. i had concerns about that because my kids came home and explained varying reports. some of allergies. some of concerns of choking on the candy. so i asked a question to the principal framed specifically is this because of allergies. and the response i got back did not mention allergies at all. it was entirely that they were trying to eliminate sweets and adhere to the school district's wellness policy. >> so how do you feel about it? what is your reaction? >> i think it's a little over the top. i certainly applaud them for teaching healthy food choices. i get that it's a worthwhile pursuit. i think this was not a well sought out endeavor. i think the goal should be teaching moderation.
5:56 am
making high foot foods lighter and better for you. they could have had a policy whereby you want to bring it to the candy and attach it to the valentine, you also bring in something healthy. there was an opportunity to make a positive contribution here, and unfortunately it became kind of the food police. >> it does seem like it's a parent's job to determine what the kids eat. no? is not michelle obama's. >> i would tend to agree. and i do really believe that the teachers and skochool administrators had their hearts in the right place and were trying to do a good thing. i don't think this was well thought out and executed. >> stacey, thank you for being with us. happy valentine's day to your and your family. >> thank you. >> coming up, a gi military dog now a prisoner of war. the taliban holding the dog

owning a home, a steady paycheck, financial independence and retirement security not as important to the next generation seen in the green. so what is causing the shift, and what does it mean for america's future? irina is here to discuss with it with us and alison howard for concerned women for america. ladies, thank you for being with us. i'll start with you. are you a millennial. >> i was until november of last year. >> just shy of a few months. >> i do. >> what are they looking for? >> i think millennials, many graduated at the height of the recession. there were not jobs. and so you're looking for self employment. something with flexibility, that provides economic security but really to shape your own destiny. >> alison, what are you looking
6:16 am
for. are you a millennial? >> i am. i appreciate my peers valuing self employment. this age group of millennials is looking at a national unemployment rate more than double the national. so there's 25.5 million of us living at home. if you take a look at this study, it says millennials value things like travel and hanging with friends above homeowner ship and retirement savings. for me i think, what happened to work hard, play hard? you need funds to fund the fun you have. >> so what makes you different? why do you have that attitude? zblo i think i'm willing to sacrifice. honestly, i don't blame any millennial for trying to make the best of a bad economy. a bad financial outlook. but i refuse to believe that the american dream is too hard to reach right now. i think the american dream may be changing as we start renting
6:17 am
and leasing apartments instead of owning our cars. but the american dream is something we should tell our young people to go after and shoot for the stars and get government out of the way so we have a chance of this whole thing. >> why do you think the millennials are focusing more on finding a job that they're passionate about and really like? that they're holding off on the paycheck because they're trying to find something that makes them happy. our parents went to work. it didn't matter if you were happy. you need to pay the bills. you're talking about your generation wanting to travel and focus on luxury items. why is that? >> i think it's a misconception to say we are not working hard or working long hours. it's really about flexibility. i think that all millennials who choose the self employment route, it's out of necessity. the jobs are not available. so you're making your own destiny.
