we already knew that this was going to have some empact a impf approval ratings of congress could get worse. rs 70% of those asked blamed the republicans for what is going on here. 61% disapprove the way democrats are behaving. 51% not real loo happ happy pret obama's role in this, either. plenty to fo go around. and there's not going to be much of breakthrough, especially nowi that it appears like the debt te ceiling is going to get caught up in all of this too. washington is remaining inin shutdown. 25,000 full low workers have applied for unemployment benefits. last week, the house passed a bill to assure back pay, but so far the senate has not voted on that. not bills to open the national parks, and veterans affairs have not been taken up by the senate,

either. the impasse shows no signs of breaking and it's passing over to the debt line to raising the nation's borrowing limit. >> since the whole purpose of this argument to remove uncertainty, the uncertainty created by the threat of default. the longer you raise the debt ceiling for the better. we would support efforts underway in the senate by senate democrats to move a bill, a clean bill that would raise thee debt ceiling for a year. >> i know democrats don't like it, but the american people have given us divided government, two elections in a row. a they gave us a republican housee and pua democratic senate.c that means negotiation isn't a luxury, it's a necessity.y. and until senate democrats accept that reality, theseality crisis will only be harder to resolve. that does seem to be the way that things have been going.

today the house is going to be taking another one of those mine spending bills, this one to fund head start.start. the senate may take up the back pay bill later this week, but what is coming to the for fronr is the idea of the senate democrats taking a preemtive strike trying to take away the republicans bargaining power ofr raising the debt limit. it's more of a political stunt if you ask political observers. the sticking point is price tag. trying to raise it for a year, the price tag that senate democrats want is an additional $1 trillion in the nation'stion' borrowing limit. >> all right. all ri the plt thickens. >> plot thickens. >> thank you, melanie. there's a rally planned at noon atpl the manly mall evenlle though it's supposed to beo closed for the shutdown, thewn, mall, that is. that we are hearing a protest for the

doctor, always good to see you. here is the big question, wherer are we financially? we're in day eight of the financial government shutdown, but down the road we see the debt ceiling looming. >> we have seen this movie before in 2011. we didn't go over the edge then, but it seems to be more likelihood because of the nature of the impasse that we could see first to time the u.s. u.s. defaulting on its debt which will send tremors in a financial shock waves throughout therough financial system. >> what would that mean for us the consumer, the investor, though saving for college funds, you're trying to make your mortgage, you're trying to buy a home, what would it mean for us? the. >> first thing you would see iss much higher interest rates. first of all the u.s. treasury is the bedrock, and banks willns find it more difficult to lend to each other. you could potentially see

disruptions in money market funds and other areas of investments beyond the fact thao you will probably see a lot more volatility leading up to and if we go over in financial marketsc such as equities, fixed income and other types like that. from the consumer standpoint tho first this can that the thing t. the banks are going to be unwilling to lend.ng to we will not have this time around, my expense is as much cover from such places as the federal housingas administration because they have had to slow down someto of their areas. housing will suffer as well. any the consumer lending activities, if you you're you'r thinking about certainly homertn purchase and what not, could bed a tricky business during this time. >> and for small business, um, not to mention the corporations that make up america but perhaps, what about the smalle business person? >> certainly they're going to find that the availability ofof

capital will dry up dhur duringh time. this will be no different. it could potentially be much more testify stating tha devaste seen. from that standpoint, small business owners should have cash reserve to be able to weather the storm. it would be a very difficultlt time for the country and those of us consumers to weather the storm. >> as we sit in the middle of the government shutdown, we say, when it this is over, government workers will get paid. what are the lasting implications of not being able to pay our debt? >> one the biggest is just simply a lack of confidence by consumers, by investors, by businesses. usually wall street tends tos come back sooner than the general public or main street, if you will, from that standpoint that creates lingering effects on, you know, a nation recovery that we're

already under right now. and that could actually potentially create economic problems downstream. >> is there no, you know, sort of safety net or something for the united states in times like these? the safety net is what we have around the debt ceiling. the fact is that this is usually a very mundane type of activity. the congress comes in, they pass this legislation, once a year, and we move on, but this time, and in prior episodes we haveve struggled with this. and that safety net, i thinkk unravels a bit once we get downn the path if we go over this wels into later october. >> let me ask you this, before in 2008 or so, arguably the big bad monster was the housing market going bust. would this be the beginning of f another deep recession like wen were in several years ago or are

these two not connected? conn >> well, they're being caused by different things, first of all. and this isn't due to the fact that we can't pay our bills. it's just that we cannot get together to decide to pay the bills. >> right. >> that is a dirvet different outcome. what makes this more difficult is the fact that we have not had this default before. i think from that standpoint, it creates a lot of uncertainty, even more so than what we saw earlier because so much of the e global economy is tied to what happens to the u.s. treasuryeasy market, what happens to the -- everybody looks to the u.s., the after all the u.s. dollar is the reserves currency. if we fail to pay our bills or partially fail to pay our billsl what do other countries or investors abroad think about th what the u.s. is doing. it creates an enormous amount of uncertainty at this time. time >> we are saying the 17, is this the magic number october 17 we 7 will know if something happensmt or not.

we will know whether or not thet pass it or not. t. there will be some time before we would fail to pay interest on the debtor principal on thecipa debt. from that standpoint, firstandpo stains of that might not happen for a couple of weeks later.s >> will you come back and see us? >> absolutely. >> dr. clifford rossi of the university of maryland school of business. thank you so much.yo it's a big thing to talk about. hope you will come pack and see us. >> absolutely. thank you so much. thank you both. talkers, esquire magazine, the sexiest, it names the first two-time winner. we will tell you who it is. so, we can measure, plan and install it for you. yea, let's do that! ikea. professional kitchen services at a low price. when ouwe got a subaru.s born, it's where she said her first word.

allison?al >> gwen, thank you. in today's fox medical report, a link between eating breakfast and making babies. bi researchers found that eating a good brea breakfast can have a positive impact on women with problems with fertilities. what is the connection? for details we turn to dr. mike live in philadelphia. dr. mike. you are the love doctor this morning, tell us about it? >> not really. but allison, what this study showed is you are what you eat. we talked so many times about how important breakfast is. it allows you to have your brai work.br it allows you to keep yourep weight down, it also can improve your chances of having a child. why? well, they did a study looking at women with the conditionn wih known as poly cystic ovary ov syndrome. these are women who have problems with fertility, and

they fed half of these women a a big breakfast, and another half a big dinner. you know who got more fertile? the break of fast women, yes.ye >> isn't that fascinating. >> it really is. >> it had effects on insulin an glu koas anglucose and overall . this study looked at that particular group of women. but if you are out there, and you're trying to have a child, do it, go have a big, healthy breakfast. it can't hurt.hu. it's all food and positive. try it, it may actually just ac make it happen. >> that is the positive. what about the negative consequences if you skip breakfast, fertility and ferti everything else? >> allison, it's a nightmare. i mean you don't take your car out, and don't put gas in the tank, and then depo fo go for a,

especially a long trip. you're going to run out of gas.f the same thing with breakfast, you're a kid that is getting ready to go to school, you need to feed your brain. you need to eat a food breakfast, you will do better in school and testing, and for all of us, you will keep your weight down. have lean protein, a little bitb of fat, and carbs to get thingss going, you wont to b you want te full so you don't snack. we're all so pizz busy now,, there's a study that shows that stress on middle age may have an effect on developing alzheimer's later in life. can you tell us about it? >> this study looked at women who were quote unquote chronically stressed in middle age, and those women had a

higher incidents of alzheimer's 30 years down the road. if i were a woman with the amount of stress i have, i would check myself in right now. the bottom line is we're all stressed and a little bit of stress can be good. it gets you on the your fame an gives you an edge. the problem is overtime, lack of sleep, high stress, leads to to things like obesity, over eating, lack of sleep, all of these things affect cholesterol, high blood pressure that canurea lead to a increased risk of of alzheimer's down the road. you need to try goat some to ge control of your life. maybe we all need a life coach. >> maybe we to. >> for me the thought of facing alzheimer's or anything added t that risk of it. might be enough to say, it's no worth it. let me find a way to getet sometime stress off. it's wonderful having you on tho show today. dr. mike have a great day. >> allison, love you.yo

graduate. there's a move to start 15st minutes later moving from 7:25 to 8:15 a.m.7:25 this proposed change would cost taxpayers at least $12 million. >> i think this makes sense. >> does it?s it maybe not. here is why. as a parent of a high school yo had student in montgomery county starting day later may make sense but only in theory. the here to hey that kids will get more sleep, but my guess iss probably not. most teenagers if given the opportunity to sleep in will only stay up later. what happened to early to bed or early to rise or the early woman catches the worm.wo. these fickle back to my time, and maybe your time growing up. we did it. why can't today's kids rise to the occasion. montgomery county start time has been 7:15 a.m. for 20 years.yea. think about this? >> and a matter of a few years

your high schooler may get the job opportunity of a lifetime. what happens in your child decides work starts too early. l should their bosses adjust the schedule to accommodate that need? of course not.e there's more these later start times will create chaos at home. schedules will need to be adjusted. activities will be pushed back with even later, with less time to do homework forcing them to stay up evenev later. as for homework, in my view one of the main reasons for sleep deprived cases is the amount of homework. so much homework. why aren't we covering moreveri during the day instead of taking more at night. what is going on here? are we adding to the growing sentiment that kids get off these days, a strong worrying ethic and a drive to succeed no matter how hard things get should be taught now. this is as important a lesson as

the lesson that kids feet in the classroom -- get in the classroom, and an extra 15 minutes of sleep may provide. that is my comment. e-mail at my view comments at wttg.com.
