a happening in our country i'm shooting the road to have some fun. meet everyday americans who know. what's america. suffered and see how things got so crazy i was making between me going to keep it right thing to hopefully start to bridge the gap this is the great american pill which. it's a number three in massachusetts and the locals say all roads lead to boston are heroes still to get the find their way into this. morning even though here. this is our we're a mobile pilgrimage. in that we can make this turn of. mobile right

person to get right this is our producer jared him and stephen don't always see eye to eye on the next well sure. some are not thank you thank god. that max is getting an education about what the state way from the city stephen heads over to the local coffee shop meet a traveling nurse and learn what it means to be boston strong. and just yes stephen even if you know nicer in terms of there you go for thank you thanks for coming no problem you've heard the word of journey to join us even here so i have you know before i get into all of that we're you from you were born where i was born in manhattan new york and then we moved here to massachusetts i graduated two thousand six hundred school and became a travel nurse. i've traveled all over the country for the past eight nine years or

so your health care. that's like a hot topic in these states yet what would you say is the biggest issue your profession for nursing health insurance period you know we get people that don't have insurance and they get the best care throughout you know the border you get someone who is hardworking and has insurance and they get kicked out after the fifth day because their insurance doesn't approve for you know whatever it is that they need or what not so sure in your opinion as you travel is a nurse a lot of folks who are uninsured are seeing more the benefits the middle to lower middle class the one hundred percent yes. and back to mexico keep it one hundred thousand came. right on the front yes but that. broken system out how much compared with europe. or france i would compare you don't have heat.

but i don't. think that you want to give me the street and you'll be the. one. with rising health care costs and education what that would mean you. might. like four thousand you're going to see average salary in france last night in france and still to be french you feed it will be less going to. be more accidents but at the end i don't know which between me yes i'm lonely it's been to . the printer for him so let's go get something. from where you were before him and before we went he was how to finish line so if they were the first that's where the second bomb went off i believe the bigger the bigger one yeah so if it. wasn't four

hungry baby we could have been still standing there when it went off thinking back like before we went to eat we were trying to hook up with another friend who was there. but it's we couldn't figure out where she was so i actually took a picture of like where we were in so she can reference it to like where to go and i didn't even notice it was her that notice when she later on that night after everything happened. when i took the picture of the two the two brothers were in the picture and. what i had to. bet. i still have a want to see it. and yeah. i've

been saying the numbers mean something they matter to us is over one trillion dollars and. more than ten white collar crimes happen each day. eighty five percent of global wealth you longs to be rich eight point six percent market saw thirty percent rise last year some with four hundred to five hundred three per circuit for sure and bitcoin rose to twenty thousand dollars. china is building a two point one billion dollar a i industrial park but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only numbers you need to remember is one one just shows you can't afford to miss the one and only. and your own pal dot com at that. time john paul enough. to know more i might. well.

in some plan there is a trade in young girls sold into an underground sex in the street sometimes by the people they trust the most. and. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confrontation let it be an arms race often spearing dramatic development only personally i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time time to sit down and talk.

at least. back at harvard square max's looking for someone he can vibe with there we're talking about america. like what it means you know i am better able to hard work with a masterpiece or marshal i'm not and you work for that i want to with the marginal i want to own my back on the fifty seven foot i should go and see how the world all screwed up and if the stuff you start produce seven years old it goes a long time and call my office. so your name a few more not answer me to tell you what your sign of. what you're trying to know while i'm a big i know a pretty rock for around. one project here too bob i'm here and i was great i give out free food to folks he wasn't. like but starbucks me issue hunger is one i'm going to draft rethink what more you cut the funding for. right you have all the

money you want housing and you have to get over and start your again it goes back to what is important for americans and we myself about zero point three americans make it if we get our values there's an old saying to live simply saw it as much to be written as how it might want to say here to show me a picture of you took randomly just to identify the spot you were. in. and it has the two individuals that were the terrorists. to speak on around to i know you're not tell me about it but massey yes. you can zoom in. and this is before all the floor everything happened yeah. i mean it's it's clear as day there they are yeah there they are right there yeah. you know right there for them. i mean that's just. crazy right and i mean even noticed until my friend was like you got to take

a look at your picture again and i was like why does the man and look at the people and that's when i was like oh. there they are tell me though. because you're talking about it and obviously it's an emotional. thing. i've met several people who on nine eleven and told to go home that day. you know you can chalk that up to. lock. higher power or anything. i didn't get any of that. not at all not until after the fact and. listening after the fact after everything happened. we just like me it was me and three my friends my pregnant friend and her husband and another friend and all three of us that we were like we need to get home that was our mean by. i'm focused i'm sorry i mean you know that.

tissue brother or american or something i'm sorry i'm going to say i thought i don't think i was going to get a little know how could you find. the. kind of car you trade up with just because i'm a little. so far from it so it's one to one city in america i mean it's all over america it's a big country right to say to completely empty you right and so you know foreign territory like wondering where i'm looking at what's so to top this place i see boston strong yeah i think that's not the first time what is amazing after the first time yes you know my partner and my father just came up after the bombing at the marathon bombing. but i didn't know that there was a whole boston strong it only came up a mile from us and one of them it was like what's going on and it means that we

like to look up for each other type of terror and things like that like we get one another where you feel it's all around i mean i guess that i'm puerto rican cold in terms of my what's going on here i don't feel like i'm ok like right now my grandfather been up for it and he just had like so much right talk about the american flag or american not like that's happening right now and very we need to not feel like when they need it that's their part that they're here because you know any other place you stand they got relief maybe it would take to get it i don't want to train up so much knowledge and box and you know on that day honestly yeah like a lot like him and. after. all this went down the trains were running they kept the trains running to let people get out of there yes. and there were like law enforcement with like huge guns in like. backpacks like all over the place like just people panic yeah and your

girlfriend was pretty pushy running to it while she couldn't write the time yourself yeah. yeah. scared and it was terrifying actually because we didn't know if there was going to be another one not to go off or away or you know when so it was it was. i can't even put it in words. how did mom and dad react. he were finally good happy to see me when i go home because they can you get ahold of me because you know all the phones were down you know you can make any phone calls you can fax you can do anything so they didn't know where i was or if i was still around or anything. so when i finally got home. it it was a voice you know i. think

i'm just. trying to stay away from patricia and myself here. just to jump to the next idea. so that happens. but you still live there. it's my home it's still home. already where the heart of it was i got you. know a body was i believe that because my mom and she went to the american me. to. ask you about. a great. great great. i feel a lot of love coming here and we're so confident i can't breathe.

yes i see the phrase boston strong what does that mean mean real surprised by. terrorists on the attack because they. are happy to hear it from our point beneath you we need to come here. so i'm sitting here with a young lady who hasn't just seen. or heard the idea boston strong. i lived it. cost them kicks because look how quickly they caught those you know. it's awesome. boston did a very good job catching those guys to be on yeah what are law enforcement deals with i know firsthand because my dad is a police officer so. i know what he goes through you know coming out of

it or you stronger. or you're getting there i'm getting their. picture one first but that's raised a pretty terrific daughter helped her friend. she was pregnant. chad the baby. yes my monkey boy sharable holds the boy in him i was not. so. heaven's here. you see there. really wasn't far. not enough somebody on the hill oh my god. yes yes we knew it was you know i saw a question about america as a country you recount. like our parents you know we're like

a sibling that's run off and started our own country i said i think we're doing mom mom i'm pretty sure these women don't speak for all of the england and max definitely doesn't speak for all of us if you get pretty good i'm going to be better to get rid of trouble well that was just too bad to say about the pope's accent you can speak up. yeah i mean you don't intend to make him a mistake right so that leaves her leadership you're not too keen on this now not a bit better yes he's. ok. other than that he's open scotland right i don't know cut off or no yes i was going to fund the east coast right in the summer and most of the gulf coast and along came and there's a transformation coming to your neighborhood and my god. what are you going to propose to now we would do wonders what we're going to call having fun and we'll article was. it a dream gallows we're going to work at it it's time to stop such
