275,000 jobs. since oil prices peaked at over $100 a barrel in mid 2014. why? for starters, demand for oil fell. in the past, opec has cut production in response. not this time. >> before the oil price collapse, the assumption is that opec would underpin the oil price by cutting production. but the key oil producers in the gulf, saudi arabia and the other gulf states, said we're not going to cut unless other people cut. >> reporter: daniel yergen is vice chairman of ihs, an international information company. and the pulitzer prize winning author of "the prize, a history of oil." >> saudi arabia's basic strategy is to maintain its market share in the global oil market, and that's been the starting point for them. >> reporter: at the expense of everybody else? >> yes. >> reporter: so began a huge

with saudi arabia and its opec partners pumping full blast. russia, too. and the united states. you've heard of fracking? pumping water into shale formations to free hard-to-get at oil and gas. well, fracking meant that the united states suddenly was producing a lot more oil. so much that for the first time in 40 years, we're exporting it. >> u.s. oil production went from 5 million barrels a day in 2008 to 9.7 million barrels a day in april of 2015. in other words, u.s. oil production almost doubled in a matter of just a few years. >> reporter: during the good years, midland and odessa, texas turned into boom towns. same story in williston, north dakota.

entrepreneurs borrowed billions of dollars to buy into the bonanza. workers flocked to the oil patch. >> i heard about all this big money. so i thought i could get a little piece of that pie, i suppose. >> reporter: so many they had to live in trailer camps. on cots in church halls. then the price crashed, thanks in large part to china's slowing economy. meanwhile, every day the world is producing something like a million and a half more barrels of oil than it needs. there's an ocean of it out there. in massive storage tanks. and right now, at least 100 million barrels are sitting in tankers, parked at sea. mike rasco just wants to hang on to his home. he never lived lavishly, even when he could have, so he could weather the bad times.

among the fastest growing cities in the south. >> sorry if i'm looking down on you, michelle, but denver is the mile high city. and talk about growth, about a thousand people a week are moving here. and it's the number one choice for millennials on the move. >> if you're planning to move in a new sofa for your big super bowl watch party, consider this -- 60% of all american furniture in homes originate in north carolina. >> yeah, that's nice, michelle. but not a whole lot of sitting here in denver, when it's sunny about 300 days a year, people are outdoors. that may be why denver is among america's fittest cities. >> john, have you even tried the barbecue here in north carolina? charlotte mayor jennifer roberts has. >> and we're here at spoon's barbecue, one of charlotte's finest.
2:50 am
burger, denver's mayor michael hancock tells me this american favorite was originally created right here in denver. i understand you have a bit of a wager going on with the mayor of charlotte. >> after the broncos win super bowl 50, mayor roberts will have to wear this peyton manning jersey in public. in fact, you might as well take it now. >> let's hope peyton manning doesn't throw like that. >> let's hope he does. i know we have a bet. i'm not going to wear a broncos jersey. you're going to be wearing a cam newton jersey and some lovely cam newton socks are going to look wonderful on you when the broncos lose. >> nice shins. but really, cheese burgers? want to burn off some of those calories on a golf course, no better place than the carolinas where north and south carolina are among the top ten places to play. and here at quail hollow club, it's hosting the 2017 pga championship. ahh!
2:51 am
michelle, but colorado is in the top ten, too. and because of the altitude, the air is thinner here, your ball will go 10% further. >> you want to talk altitude? let's talk about the wright brothers who launched the age of aviation from the carolina coast. >> well, there are plenty of historical places here in downtown denver, like union station, which has recently -- what's that noise? >> oh, i'm sorry, john. is this bothering you? it's so addictive, this bubble wrap. the company that makes it, right here in north carolina. >> bubble wrap? here in denver, you could pop into a marijuana dispensary. since pot was legalized here in 2012 for recreational use, it's become a billion dollar business. >> marijuana is not legal here in the carolinas, not even for medicinal use.

3:00 am
the state will buy 4,000 more. testing would focus on pregnant women who are especially vulnerable. the virus has been linked to a birth defect called microcephaly. babies are born with abnormally small heads and brains. there is no zika vaccine, and no antidote. dr. walter tabachnick, an expert on infectious diseases. >> i think we have to take this so seriously that we must do everything possible to reduce the chances of getting zika. >> reporter: floridians often live with standing water where mosquitoes breed, but residents are being urged to get rid of it, inside in flower vases and water tanks, and outdoors in empty pails, clogged gutters or wherever water pools. the cdc has advised pregnant women to postpone traveling to 30 countries and territories, including mexico. >> so, i'm 16 weeks pregnant. >> reporter: erica benstock declared her own state of emergency.

3:02 am
reporting misses most infections. in brazil, the virus is predominantly spread through mosquitoes, but in the united states, nearly all the reported cases are imported from travelers. that's why the major blood banks say people should not donate blood if they have traveled in the last 28 days to mexico, the america. dr. darrell triulzi, the director of transfusion medicine at upmc. >> if the deferral will take care of the great majority of the risk, so i think by far the benefits of transfusion would outweigh the very small risks of an infected unit. >> reporter: there is a test called pcr that can detect zika virus in the blood, but it's not government approved in brazil or in the united states, where about 21 million units are transfused each year. >> we keep the virus here frozen. >> reporter: researcher rafael franka has been studying zika closely for the past year at
3:03 am
>> we have the machines and the technology and people to do that. we need to make sure we have solid results. >> reporter: so there's nothing really stopping you from testing every blood transfusion for the presence of zika virus? >> yeah, true. we just don't have enough time actually. >> reporter: if mosquitoes in the u.s. get infected, travel history alone would not be an effective screening method. if that happens, scott, the chief medical officer for america's blood center says testing donor blood for the presence of zika virus would be considered. jon lapook in brazil for us tonight. john, thank you. today, in the water emergency in flint, michigan, the epa said lead levels are dropping and home filters appear to be working. but that isn't true everywhere, as our adriana diaz discovered. >> we have this information sheet from epa >> reporter: epa agents have fanned out in flint, targeting

3:05 am
health of the system. >> reporter: concern for lead levels in children's blood is still high. today state health officials released the latest data. they show 2.5% of children have elevated blood lead levels. last year at this time it was 2.1%. parents continue to bring their children in for blood testing, fearing developmental delays and behavioral issues. >> it's just a bad situation. we just worry. >> reporter: 34 members of the epa are on the ground conducting tests at homes with the highest lead levels. scott, today officials announced they want every child in flint under six years old tested for lead by april 1st. >> adriana diaz. adriana, thanks. well, there was quite a scene on capitol hill today. martin shkreli was there, the former drug company executive who became a poster boy for price gouging and was later arrested on unrelated fraud charges.

3:08 am
who makes progress. that's what i intend to do. >> senator sanders, you spent nearly two decades in congress and haven't gotten any of these things past. why do you think as president you can? >> i haven't run for president before. [ applause ] let's deal with some of the comments that secretary clinton made. and by the way, you know, sometimes there's a lot of drama here. i've known secretary clinton for 25 years and respect her very much. here is the issue. every major country on earth, whether it's the uk, whether it's france, whether it's canada, has managed to provide health care to all people as a right and they are spending significantly less per capita on health care than we are. so i do not accept the belief that the united states of
3:09 am
i cannot accept the belief that the united states of america and our government can't stand up to the rip-offs of the pharmaceutical industry, which charge us by far the highest prices in the world for prescription drugs. number two, in the economy today, everybody understands that we need a well-educated workforce. this is 2016. when we talk about public education, it can no longer be k through 12th grade. i do believe that public colleges and universities should be tuition free. well, how do we pay for that? it's an expensive proposition. i do believe we should substantially lower student debt in this country. we pay for it by a tax on wall street speculation, the middle class bailed out wall street in their time of need. now it is wall street's time to help the middle class.
3:10 am
donald trump leading marco rubio by 11 points. that's a seven-point improvement for rubio, putting him ahead of ted cruz. trump is looking for a comeback and major garrett is there. >> reporter: donald trump is learning retail politics means more than selling hats and t-shirts. >> okay, let's go. >> we love you. >> reporter: it means mingling with voters, something trump rarely did in iowa. >> got to do it. it's called crunchtime. >> reporter: runchtime is right and trump's ad hoc ground game is playing catchup. he's led every poll here since july, but today would not predict victory. >> i don't think in terms of losing. i think we're going to do well. >> donald trump is very rattled right now. he told the entire world he was going to win iowa. and then he can't win. >> reporter: iowa caucus winner
3:11 am
momentum to catch trump and beat back a challenge by marco rubio. rubio picked up rick santorum's endorsement yesterday. >> list one accomplishment that marco rubio has achieved in four years in the united states senate. it doesn't even have to be a passed bill. >> the bottom line is, there isn't a lot of accomplishments and i don't think it's a fair question. >> reporter: rubio down played santorum's comments. >> i wouldn't expect him to be familiar with my record. >> we're electing a president of the united states. >> reporter: jeb bush has made an issue of rubio's lack of experience all week. today the super pac supporting bush released it a tv ad. >> i know jeb. i know his good heart and strong backbone. >> reporter: scott, top republicans here say trump can win without the organization
3:12 am
jeb bush have devoted to new hampshire. speaking of jeb bush, he finished sixth in iowa, and he's at 10% in new hampshire. well, today, norah o'donnell spoke to him and his mother, former first lady barbara bush. >> just a few years ago you said no more bushes in the white house. >> funny. i knew you were going to bring that up. and i said it because it is such a sacrifice for his family, but now i know he is so needed that he has to run. >> you can see more of norah's interview with jeb and barbara bush tomorrow on "cbs this morning." hillary clinton's campaign has been facing questions about her decision as secretary of state to use an unsecured computer server in her home for official e-mails. some of those e-mails turned out to contain top-secret information. well, today we learned that clinton is not alone, and we asked nancy cordes to look into this.
3:13 am
>> reporter: clinton suddenly finds herself in good company. according to an internal state department review, two of former secretary colin powell's personal e-mails also contained classified information, as did ten e-mails from the personal accounts of top aides to his successor, condoleezza rice. >> most of them i think are pretty benign. >> reporter: like clinton, powell exclusively used a personal account as secretary of state, though he e-mailed far less often. in a statement today he said the the two e-mails in question were -- the clinton campaign happily sided with him. press secretary brian fallon. >> this is an example of over- classification run amok. >> reporter: the state department announced last week that 22 of clinton's e-mails which sat on her private server for years are being reclassified as top secret, one of the
3:14 am
classification, higher than the secret and confidential designations given to the powell and rice e-mails. more than 1,500 clinton e-mails have already been put in those categories. isn't there a big difference between an e-mail or two being classified as confidential and 22 e-mails being classified as top secret? >> these e-mails that have been judged top secret are completely wrong. we want them released. let the public see them. >> reporter: the fbi is still looking into clinton's use of a private server, but, scott, the clinton campaign views this as a rare positive development in a year-long controversy. >> nancy cordes with the clinton campaign. let's get these dayquil liquid gels and go. but these liquid gels are new. mucinex fast max. it's the same difference. this one is max strength and fights mucus. mucinex fast max. the only cold and flu liquid gel that's max-strength and fights mucus.

3:21 am
>> and this evening j.b. is in super bowl city in san francisco. i wonder, cam newton gets a lot of flack for his celebrating after touchdowns. what does he make of that? >> you know, scott, he's quite puzzled by the extent of the reaction to his celebrations on the field. it is atypical for a quarterback to be quite so demonstrative, but he'll be first to tell you, enthusiasm is what has gotten him to this point. as a matter of fact, my high school coach says nothing great is every accomplished without enthusiasm. he's embracing it. they're at the doorstep of a super bowl championship. >> well, a lot of enthusiasm for the game this weekend. james brown, thank you very much. and you can see j.b.'s full interview with cam newton on "60 minutes sports." that's tuesday night on showtime. well, if you were anywhere near a dance floor in the '70s and '80s you know the music of maurice white. do you remember >> he was the founder and leader
