jonas max ferris along matt mccall. matt. when we see unemployment coming down you say this move is threatening to send it back up? >> it is, because this move is helping the big business, the big unions right now which really are not creating jobs. we're coming out of the recession and seeing the small private companies creating jobs and entrepreneurs coming out and that's when we see it coming out of recession, this move, in my mind, putting these three people into the positions are only going to go back to union, big labor. and what's happened to this mess, brenda? >> take a look at gm. gm he we got in the mess because the unions do not work in this day and age and in my mind going back to where we were. >> brenda: okay, jonas is smirking. >> i thought we got into this mess because after housing bubble that was caused by the most unlabor-- the most onion labor force, which is bankers, et cetera. and the unions. >> brenda: okay. >> getting back to this. first of all, we did talk pretty good jobs figure this week and the onl

jonas max ferris, along with ceo john tobacco and former dnc deputy finance director, david mercer, welcome to everybody. >> okay. john, a 15% flat tax for everyone, is that how to get everyone working again? >> i mean, i think that there's some sense in that. i think that americans should stand up and cheer for the presidential candidate who says i'm going to give you a big, fat flat tax. and give you the same tax rate basically, that mitt romney has. and people are villainizing mitt romney for paying 15% on the investment that he made in the past, but i think that americans should be looking for that and presidents from kennedy to reagan, to bill clinton, to george bush cut taxes and stimulation to employment and lowering of unemployment and one of these candidates should take hold of that. >> brenda: david, you say it doesn't necessarily bring jobs? >> well, it's a conceptual frame work and would be phil graham who ran for president or steve forbes and we know where they went and to refer to romney, which i'm glad was, he in fact, has said, should bring him on the show, said that the fla

is jonas max ferris, and christian, and amelia. toby, you say we need to do something right now to stave off the threat. what is it? >> read my lips, cut corporate taxes and every one of the republican candidates, agreed on one thing. cut corporate taxes and let's go to the history books. look at my old country. 15% went to a flat rate 15% versus the euro at 30, 35% and they grew their economy four times faster and their gdp kicked butt for 22, 23 years, we've seen it in every other country that's done this, astona, blah, blah, blah, it's time to do it now and get ahead of this thing. if we don't we will have job issues here because europe is going to be negative for the next six months. >> brenda: in fact, we have the second highest corporate tax rate in the world, second only to japan. christian, is that the way to go? >> look, if all you're interested in it increasing corporate profits, sure, cut the tax rates and if you're interested in creating jobs. >> brenda: let him talk. >> you need to do more. the reason that businesses a

. >> brenda: jonas, where do you stand on this? >> conceptually, yes, if it's right to the point where america went bankrupt and don't get enough 50% tax rate across the board. >> how about everybody paying it. >> not enough of a level. we're going to go to a system like that and it has to be at least 20%, including cap gains and mitt romney and buffet tax rates and that's how we spend money in this country and let the major across the board cuts far more than anybody is talking about, it's just not-- and people now, the benefits of it as far as jobs, once you have a situation where you have different tax rates, you have game playing going on and this income, this rate, this, that company change the way they do the balance sheets and we're going to pay dividends, not going to do this or this or this and all of this behavior goes away, once you have the income. and there are benefits to t and it's a fantasy land to sauk talk about everybody paying of the tax rate. it's impossible. >> i don't think it's i am pock, 50% of measured ame

on monday he heads to germany to do a six-week tour with the jonas brothers.ins us to talk about his upcoming album. mdot, good to see you up close and person. i've actually seen you before. my son is a big fan, we saw you in concert last year at the nissan pavilion. you put on a great show. >> i appreciate you being out there showing the support. >> you've been doing this for a long time since you were a little kid. >> i got to give a shoutout to the elementary school, going to be out there at 12:00, a shoutout to danielle and also extremele scenes going to be doing a show tonight at langely. >> excellent. very, very good. before we get into everything, your fans know, and i'm not sure how many other people know, last year, you had a very serious motorcycle accident, last june, was it? >> yes. >>> can you tell me about that and tell us how you're doing now. >> i was in an accident and broke my leg. it definitely devastated me. i was in a wheelchair for three months and crutches. >> did you have to go through the rehab? >> rehab and still in physical therapy,

jonas is manpower group's president of the americas.wer surveyed thousands of companies around the world and found that more than half of u.s. employers are having trouble finding people to fill open positions. let's talk about this. specifically, you found that the hardest jobs to fill last year were skilled trades, sales representatives, engineers, drivers and accounting staff. you have said many of these companies have cited a lack of skills as a reason for the talent shortage. now, what skills are individuals who are looking for jobs in america lacking that would allow them to fill some of those positions? >> the skills that employers are looking for are the kinds of skills that require a level of experience, training and also adoption to new technology. when we talk about manufacturing skills, for instance, the specific positions that employers in manufacturing are finding difficult to find are positions such as machinists, cnc operators, mechanics, specialized welders, so quite specific positions. they're impacted by two things, t

. >> brenda: you just don't like jonas. >> i love jonas, i just don't know what he said. >> brenda: cavuto on business next. >> the president wants companies to bring jobs home and now one of the ceo's of a big company tells the president to have a reality check. a jobs plan that has at least one major ceo scratching his head. the president wants to penalize companies for creating jobs overseas by taking away tax breaks, something a big boss talked about this week. >> think about it. caterpillar escorted 20 billion dollars of goods to 2011 all by american hands and american workers, all over the world and in order to to that, we have to create jobs in all the countries that we export to to be able to sell there. why is caterpillar bad if we create a new job in india or china, to receive u.s. exports? >> it makes no sense to me. >> we want to drag the exports we can from the united states and concentrate on the consumers outside, contractors, customers outside the u.s. that we possibly and we're going to need to create jobs over there to do that. >> and matt, was this plan actually cost us

second, as jonas has indicated, we have a concern that if there is only one evaluator, i've the evaluatoris overloaded or on vacation or we run into a problem where we incur substantial delay -- as you know, we tried diligently and the planning department staff does to work these three within 150 days as federally mandated. i want to think the planning department staff and thank you for considering this resolution and we support it. president miguel: is there an additional public comment on this item? if not, public comments is closed. commissioner antonini: much of our discussion centers often around whether the maps are accurate. if we have an evaluation, that's one less thing to be questioned and might make more -- but make for a more expeditious process. this is a process that is somewhat cumbersome and it is something that has got to be done anyway. it's like when we had television antennas, we put antennas on the roof to take -- to pick up the television and we did not have to go through permitting process for every antenna we put up. the same with how many telephone poles local uti

. >> brenda: jonas, what do you think of that. >> a natural gas glut form, do not go there. >> oil, it says oil. >> brenda: neil next. >> from the grand old party to the grand old state. hi, everybody, i'm neil cavuto and fox on top on the over the top bait and switch from republicans, not over the bain can't capital they think, but their views on this, i don't know, capitalism thing and i'm not just talking about the guys making their pitch in south carolina, i'm talk about the lawmakers already in d.c. it's about a party that rails against big spending, but won't cut it. demands steep cuts in entitlements and won't do it, call for bold leadership and won't provide it. so fixed in the moment selling themselves and won't have their party sold while they're at it. and charles, my issue with republicans is, you've got to get reading from the same choir book here and you're not and furthermore, you're not even bothering to sing the tune. but of course, some voices are more out of tune than others, i wouldn't even, at this point, and let's just, you know, the elephant in the room no pun in

. >> bill: we are going to fly you jona over to italy and you will defend this guy because you are aefense attorney how do you defend the captain from manslaughter charges which he is facing. >> the problem with manslaughter charges there doesn't need to be intent. if a prosecutor can show that he was reckless that manslaughter charge is going to stick. >> bill: reckless is a subjective word, is it not? >> no. it does have legal definition. stupidity doesn't normally lead to criminal negligence. recklessness does. the captain will have to show i wasn't reckless. >> bill: this is what i tried to do and this is why i was in the rocks. you could gefned this -- defend this guy. it's not a slam dunk. >> it's not a slam dunk. i'm liking this as a prosecutor. the ship had gone down this way before. they were given exact course instructions and he completely veered off. >> bill: he has to explain why he is off. >> he wanted to show off. >> bill: show off how? >> we don't know to whom but he wanted to get close to do bye i'm close here now. >> bill: that doesn't make any sense at all. >> of c

. >> when jonas walks in, what does he see?nzie estimates that if the united states had in recent years closed the gap between its educational achievement levels and those of better performing nations like finland and korea, gdp in 2008 could have been $1.3 trillion to $2.3 trillion higher. this represents a 9% to 16% jump in gdp. so how do we get there? some elements of the solution seem obvious. the writer malcolm gladwell says it takes 10,000 hours to get really good at anything. it's really just another way of making thomas edison's famous point that genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration. now, if our kids spent two years less in school than in many other countries, they will find themselves behind in many areas. we don't have to go to the lengths that south korea has gone to lengthen the school day and school year, but we can't do the least work and hope for the best results. whether you look at south korea or finland, getting great teachers is obviously at the heart of good education. we had great teachers until th
