is demand dropping? as don just mentioned, i want to point out there continues to be a lot of fear around what the federal reserve will do, when it will do it. that has gotten investors unnerved. finally, just plain fear. it has been four years since the big correction. now we've got one. i think people are looking for the bottom. they are definitely nervous and a psychological factor at play here. >> what are the argument some are making the fed should have acted a long time ago? the only place people have to put their money is in the stock market and perhaps why it is overvalued. >> i think one of the biggest criticisms of this fed and bernanke's fed the policy fosters asset bubbles. it means when interest rates are so low what can you do? i can't keep my money in cash, so, okay, i'll buy high-risk bonds and stocks and it pushes the assets higher. part of the fed's is to do just that but this is the downside. frankly what the real question now is the fed is how with they normalize policy but not unnerve both markets and the economy.

>> i mean, the time of year we are in, it's the summer. a lot of people still away. they are not necessarily active in trading. could this be a head fake or is this a real read of sentiment and nervousness in the united states? >> i think is there a real nervousness and i think among the investment community, whether you are away or you home, there is a lot of anxiety, a lot of hedge fund traders and a lot of private equity people time and they are very concerned. the first time i've heard them this worried since the debt ceiling crisis four years ago. that said, for the rest of us mere mortals out there with our 401(k)s and our 403bs you have to relax and chill out. these are the days you could make a mistake and we don't want you to be that. >> 403b? >> if you work for a school. 401(k) for a teacher. >> got it, jill. >> take a deep breath. good advice, jill. the stock market worries are spilling into the republican presidential race.

costs. frank bruni is here, an op-ed columnist for "the new york times" and the paper's former restaurant critic. this is a tough decision for any restaurant owner. is this really a gamble on what kind of staff is going to work for you and what they are willing to do? >> it's a gamble on staff and it's also a big gamble when it comes to customers. we are so accustomed to the tradition of tipping in this country. i think a lot of customers are deeply unsettled when they get into a restaurant and find out they are not going to tip. they feel sometimes wrongly that it gives them less control over the experience and i think that is the real x-factor here is how a customer will feel about tip prices being rolled into the overall price or added automatically. >> what is the intent for restaurants to do it this year? in the past the whole idea means the tips can pay their waiting staff less because they get

tips. >> a couple of things going on. there has been a revolt over recent years what is called the backup of a restaurant. dishwashers and especially cooks and restaurants are experiencing a shortage in getting talented kitchen staff. kitchen staff ends up being paid less than waiting staff because they don't pay for tipping. if you take the tip prices and put them into the rest of the menu you as management have control over how the money is sdu disbursed and rising minimum wage laws means that restaurants are having to pay people in the back of the house more and, again, they have to come up with a different way of distributing the revenue, different economic model. >> do you think there are any waiters or waitresses would want to work by this system? >> absolutely. there is studies showing there is discrimination in tipping. blond waiters get more brunette. >> wait recesses with lipstick. >> african-american waiters get less. some waiters and waitresses i think would like this a lot because it would take some of

the random behavior out of the e occasion. others wouldn't because they feel they can use their charm to up their income. so it depends on the serve every. >> the advantage of tips as wages has been that, of course, theoretically you don't have to report them on a tax return or won't report them on a tax return and waiters and waitresses like that. so much being done on credit cards they lose that. >> right. absolutely. one of the reasons a lot of servers like tipping culture 10, 20 years ago is because a great number of tips came in cash and that has diminished to a point i think it's almost negligible how much tipping happens in cash. >> have you seen many restaurants test this out? >> we are seeing more and more all the time. here in new york, in different ways in a different cost levels, dirk candy, a restaurant downtown, per se. sushi asuta are finding different ways to do away with tipping and sometimes they are rolling what would be the tipped money into the overall price and sometimes they are adding a 20% administrative charge line. restaurants on the west coast that have experimented with one

line for tips to the front of the house and then another line that says if you'd like to leave the kitchen staff a tip. >> at the end of the day, this means -- would mean higher prices, right? >> yes. >> in terms of how much entree and appetizer cost? >> it means a higher price. the argument is what you've actually spent by the time you walk out the door hasn't changed. you just didn't do a portion of that indiscretionary tipping. >> do you think this is happening at certain specific restaurants, any chance this will spread? >> i don't know. it will spread for a while but it's hard to change decades of diner behavior. like i said i think the average diner thinks the tip gives him or her a lot of power at that table and is reluctant to give that up even reasons to do so. it makes your experience better. >> it's standard in europe? >> absolutely. i was in italy a couple of years. a tip was extra little thing. >> do you still tip? >> i try tip well.

the puppeteer at my feet. he said, don't look at man down there! look at me! and carol who plays big bird, don't be nervous. only millions of people watching you. >> what do you think of "sesame street" transitioning to hbo? >> it's been on the air a long time and "sesame street" has always reflected the times it existed. it came out of the '60s and civil rights movement and very idealistic show. i think its move to hbo it's still mirroring the society we are living in. if i criticize anything, and i'm not, i would criticize the times we live in and not the show. >> now that you're retiring, what are you going to do next? write more? >> i think i'll write more. i love to put mice sensibility in books. i have another children's book, picture book that is also going to be released in september, in addition to becoming maria.

and certainly i will continue to try to help kids in whatever arena is afforded to me. >> we will miss you. thank you so much for being here this morning. it was a thrill for all of us. her book goes on sale today. together, they celebrated 285 birthdays! three identical sisters make history. that's next on "cbs this morning"! ,,,,,,,,,,
