that said, kids are expensive. if someone has a child in my town, my poverty tax goes to pay for that kid. this is going to hit all these local school districts. unfortunately it's not a local problem. we have a problem with the populations not growing. that's why social security going broke. at the end of the day, if we can turn these kids, some of them into tax pair, won't that solve the other problem. there's got to be a way to make them tax positive with eliminating benefits and paying taxes when they get older. it's not like they're infants. maybe that's the way to go long term. >> what do you think about that idea? >> i think that is just one area of the problem that we have on the border. i agree with that. arnold schwarzenegger, they came here as immigrants legal and made pretty good names for themselves. dr. hossa came here illegal and is now one of the best brain surgeons in baltimore. this country has been built on that. but this is just one symptom. when you mix in 60,000 kids, that really isn't that mu

a worry about the kids later. 4,000 kids in west virginia, well, is that important or not? to me is kind of is. the companies might not be looking like that. it is worth noting that the tobacco control law was enacted following years and years of litigation that uncovered internal tobacco company documents showing that despite claims that they only promoted their products to adults the industry had targeted young people as a critical market. and, of course. that is where the money is, the buying is done by the cash in your pocket. your 12, eight, 14. how would you go? you can look like gloria swanson in april the fda proposed rules to regulate to floor, but finally these rules could take call long time meanwhile, the e-cigarette industry is booming. to record companies with a history of marketing cigarettes to use have been jumping into the market. i don't know how many per day, per week. i just don't know, but a lot as the e-cigarette industry continues to rapidly evolve, we need to hold companies something called accountable, accountable. that is an american tradition gm

in terms of what they teach the kids and what they encourage the kids to do.e end of the day, it allows kids when they eat healthy and get that fuel, it allows them to be successful in the classroom. it allows them to be successful on the football field or soccer field or basketball court, whatever it is, in the long run. >> you know, a lot of it, too, you said in the past, you got to move. you can eat a lot of different things if you just get out there and exercise. you're a pretty good example of that and what can happen to a guy when he sticks to that. but, you know, we have such a sedentary society, how do you get americans off the couch? >> well, the biggest thing, especially young kids in this generation, it's the video games. i'm the first one to root for xbox and do all that kind of stuff. but at the same time, you know, you have to get outside, too. i used to play video game, too. xbox and madden all the time and do that. but i also realized. and my parents helped me realize, the importance of getting outside, getting my education, first of all. getti

kids want money. if it is 10 years from now and you are so rich you cannot believe that how did i ever get to this place in life? how much would you be making? he said 80,000. if we cannot deliver that to that guy with plenty of talent then something is wrong with america but he is 20 years old nobody talked about him -- talk to him about money until he walked into the building. of is trying to tell john something today you may have found a solution. the kids that i talked to always wonder if they play for the nfl they talk about the big money contracts. will then if i can play i will be an agent. they have no idea there is more money in health care that is bigger than all sports added together but maybe we should talk with them right then to see if they cannot talk about the language of banking you can teach them math and reading and have their reading tom sawyer they're not going anywhere. but i will wrap this up. i read every word of your book and i thank you have a breakthrough he is very prolific

then it is kind of sexy he wants to be a kid. you know you believe it. >> i have to tell you, you get the babysitter there, just put the food on the table and they're having mac and cheese and chicken nuggets, chipping err fingers. doesn't it always taste great, even though going out to fancy restaurant? the kid foods looks even better. >> exactly. >> what about pasta? >> well it, means you're romantic according to this website, right? so if you order anything with garlic that might mean you are not sever aware, not @ wear of how you affect other people with your. >> the. >> i would think no no to order food with lots of garlic. >> well, if you both order it you're fine, though? the whole deal? >> still. >> you don't think snow. >> i think it means don't kiss me. >> that's true, jen. >> it means there is no dessert, if you know what i mean? ya, someone orders the thing with the red onions, the garlic, the really heavy pesto, what it means is it has been real, but not real exciting. >> maybe. i think that's a good way to look at i
