what does it have to do with the middle-class?at the time that meant a new house, new car, healthcare, college for your kids, retirement and one more thing, the belief inside that your children were going to be better off than you were. that got absolutely crushed. how do they respond? first they put mom to work. by the 1970s, 43% of 1970s, 43% of women were working. that was way up. at the time only 10% had degrees. i 1960, over 60% were working in a third had degrees. today nearly 70%, a complete reversal, but relevant inflation kept climbing and real wages were flat. family after family kept asking the same question, what do we do? how can we make it? how can we possibly survive? then like the dawn of a new day, it occurred to them. borrow. in 1957 there were but a handful of credit cards. ten years later in 1967 ere were 100 million credit cards in the country. by 2007 there were 2 billion credit cards in the country. by in the country. by 2008, consumer debt stood at 12 and three-quarter trillion dollars. today we face an ent

we have new frontier and it's feeding the growing middle class of all these countries that have middle class life as a centerpiece of their strategy. there is not enough growth inside our borders to feed our middle class. anybody who tells you so has not done the most basic math. the solution is over there. at the same time, we have to look at what is going on here. wages have continued to stay flat and just to give you a sense front 1948 to 1973 productivity doubled and so did wages. from the oil embargo of 1973 to today, productivity has increased by twice again. it's doubled again. but real wages have increased 4%. where is all that money gone? i'm afraid to say it's been structural distribution. and we have not been told reliable information. every month, we get the jobs report, jobs data, but the most important piece of information is left out, the market value of a job. a job is not a job is a job. what we're creating is entry-level, low-wage jobs. and that is township big challenges. the face of our middle class has changed dramatically. i you look at the makeup of our country,

you cannot talk middle-class and then do things that hurt the middle class.not say you care about working people and then do things that hurt working people. i'll give you anyou have exampl. right now, republicans in washington have a chance to prove they really care about working families. congress has to pass a budget by the end of this month, or they risk shutting down the government for the second time in two years. everybody knows that the world economy is pretty volatile right now. our economy is a relative bright spot. we are doing better pretty much than anyone else, so a shutdown would be completely responsible. it would be an unforced error, a fumble on the goal line. it would be like a ground ball slipping through somebody's legs. [croud moans] president obama: you have had some since then. if you have not had so many wins, i would not make that joke. budget that pass a does away with the so-called that harms our military and our middle class. we can rebuild our ports and airports and put people back to work right now. i will sign that budget. but

. >> conner powell is live in the middle east bureau with the latest on that. conner? >> the afghanistan security forces have launched a counter offensive and did that yesterday. but in the first 24 hours it made little progress in rooting out the taliban. the taliban is not only holding the ground but appear to be expanding the grip and control all of the major strategic points in the northern city except for the airport which we understand is being held by afghan sources and propped up by american troops. that is the way the afghan government is going to get additional troops in so it is important. u.s. troops are on the ground at the airport helping to secure that spot. this is a big blow to the overall u.s. mission in afghanistan that placed emphasis on training and equipping the afghanistan forces and handed over all of the country just a few years ago. there are 10,000 or so americans there helping to train the afghan security forces. but on the ground it is afghan trfighting and battling the taliban. one of the key problems of battling in the northern part of th

one always in the middle east. and, again, not far away from the issue of migration, because we start to see palestinians in the flow of refugees. and we know very well that there's a huge palestinian issue in the region itself. all middle east, we had a long and substantial discussion with the ministers yesterday to prepare our next steps yesterday. i shared with you, those of you that were here already that we have words together with our partner. namely with the u.s., and i was speaking with john kerry yesterday about this, and with russia, to prepare a new start, somehow, of the quarters. we will have accorded principles for the minister's meeting together with ban ki-moon later this month. that - at which they will be invited - have been invited already. egypt. jordan, saudi arabia, and the arab league. this is not irrelevant. we have to build partnerships in the region, and our region is also in the mediterranean and the middle east. and making sure that the middle east process engine could be restarted after

so it is a part of the extremism that's been arising in the middle east. so i'd like to take this opportunity to go further than just discuss iran today. i think we need to discuss a need for a long-term strategy. bipartisan. republicans and democrats and our western world allies. the free world allies. and how we're going to deal with over a long period of time the problems of extremism in the middle east. it's clear that we are seeing a resurgence of militant islam. this strain of islam seeks to advance a theological and political approach to the world. it seeks to unify faith and politics and believers as such seek to advance and to advance what they think -- advance policies they think will honor allah. a religious command. this strain that's been in islam for years that advocates conversion by the sword, in fact, finds much support in the koran. i wish it weren't so, but it does. most muslims are truly people of peace, are faithful people in their daily activities. but there's a sizable minority that often times seeks dominance and achieves dominance,

there's not very men empty middle seats.the price point can vary wildly but we see discounts a lot, and if you're flying on a connecting flight, the discount can be even more. nonstops are less discounted then connecting flights. >> what is the next time? if right after labor day is the best time on this tuesday, there is a time, say issue around thanksgiving, a good time to buy? >> yes, sure. so, in general, what you want to do, if you can, is shop about two to trough -- two to three months in advance of your departure. i you're inside of 30 days before your didder, which two-thirds of all tickets are sold inside of 30 days, you're playing into the airlines hands they charge you more money for those tickets. so be sure to -- don't procrastinate and shop between tuesday and thursday. there's a couple other things. you've leave on a tuesday, wednesday, saturday, you'll save money as well, and if you fly hungry, of a.m., noon, and 6:00 p.m., nobody likes to the flights, even more downs. >> think everybody flies hungry, don't g

what happens in the middle east is not going to stay in the middle east. we see this in the global reach of the islamic state from the sanctuary status eased in the region. in the tsunami of refugees fleeing the complex of the middle east. in the danger of the nuclear cascades sport by iranian actions, and in the escalating tensions between the u.s. and russia over security. and it is in the middle east today where the rules-based international order, the foundation of american security and prosperity since the end of world war ii is most in danger of coming apart at the seams. international peace and security do not require the united states to solve every crisis or to intervene in every conflict. but if america is ineffective or absent in the face of the most egregious violations of the most basic principles of the international order that we have championed, our commitment to that order is inevitably questioned and further challenges to it are invited. i will focus here this morning on three countries at the height of the present geopolitical storm. ira

this is about control of the middle east, it's about pushing the west, the united states out of middle we like to think of win win scenarios for putin. if we just sit around the table we can work it out and everybody can win. but putin doesn't look at it that way. it's zero sum, i win, you lose. that's what he's trying to do. >> to get enough of an outcome to walk away from the table happy? >> anna expressed that very well, the goals of american policy is, the goals are what are causing us a problem. certainly a new regime in damascus would not be friendly to moscow. i don't know if it would be friendly to us either, or i.s.i.s. or el nusra. we overthrow libya we end up with chaos, the idea of pressing ahead with what we set out years ago as the only possible outcome is staring us in the face with failure. and i think in a way we would be much better off looking at the russian action not as a win-lose for us but as well a win for them and maybe if we rethought some of our priorities maybe not a bad thing for us either. >> anna when you put it that way, i'm wondering if at the state dep

the plight of minority communities in the middle east are in the spotlight. at least 12 turkish police officers killed in a bomb attack on a minibus in the eastern province is coming amid a surge warplanese, turkish launching a massive aerial campaign against the militant group. i am joined in the studio by stephen carroll. hello, stephen. talking about the man who is being described as the best loss in the world. i would like to meet him. stephen: it is a credit card processing firm based in seattle in washington state. the headlines earlier this year, he was going to raise the minimum salary for the 120 tople working at the company 70 that -- to $70,000 a year. it, he put profit back into salaries. we spoke to france 24 about why he decided to take this step. >> we are so passionate about helping this businesses that the staff is continuing to sacrifice, work extra hours, anything to help our clients. but they got way out of balance where they were not being paid. problem, which is the gap between what it costs to make the basic ends meet, like housing, and

when they talk about saving america's middle class. i'll challenge that idea next. >>> the federal reserve kept its key benchmark near zero. janet yellen and company say a rate hike is all but in order, hinting it may be in october. joining me it's arthur. he's the architect. he's considered the godfather of so-called supply side economics. that's the theory that lower taxes, especially on top earners generates prosperity because the benefits trickle down. it's an idea that has been on the left for years. it has the defectors on the right. they argue the middle class needs more than just tax cuts to keep i afloat. it is a great pleasure to see you. >> it's a pleasure, lovely to be with you. >> the feds didn't raise rights. the availability through interest rates, that's the way the federal reserve has done things, it leads to higher prices. there's more money up there, and people do things with it. it hasn't happened. inflation is below the target of 2% a year. why. you want to eat your words on this one? >> probably i'm wrong on this

real country, is becoming like a somalia right in the middle of the middle east. leaking poison as failed states always do into its neighboring countries. i mean, this will metastasize and spread. itkarjrnw'> all for droning ewes sis, obviously, everybody is. before we do too much more it might be settling on who we think ought to lead, syria. >> it's not that they haven't given this thought. there are no good options. this group or that group? no, you don't hear anybody chanting. >> the middle east, there never are good options. puck one, by the way, i'm not going to -- you know, to give a preference is to have to defend that preference. and they are cowards in that regard. rather than just standing up and saying, look, someone needs to run the country, the option is untenable. it will infect these other countries. >> add these two stories together. you have got russia with air power that's now going to be essentially over syria. they are defending bashar assad. you have got our drones trying to take out isis, but we are also trying to help

how much more suffering do we want to unleash in the middle east? to kind of like, you know, apply diplomacy, strong diplomacy behind the scenes. one question i do have for your guest was, i heard on the build harsh -- on the bill maher show that the economy does not want to take any refugees, but will spend all this money on helping refugees making it to europe, or investing money in mosques over there. why theyt wondering were not taking anything. is it because of the shia versus sunni? host: is it true that they have not taken any? guest: i cannot comment on that, i don't know the saudi policy. abruptly speaking, when you are -- but broadly speaking, when , the policymocratic toward refugees has been generally to do as little as possible and make them someone else's problem. i would not be surprised if that was the position of saudi arabia and other states in the region. i want to comment on her pointed out diplomacy, that we need some sort of diplomatic initiative. i completely agree. i hope i don't sound like a broken record in saying if you ha

and once stability has been established, build governance in the middle east region. ladies and gentlemen, iraq, syria and yemen are all examples of crises being stoked through terror. extremism. violence. bloodshed. invasion. and the indifference of the international community. they are similar examples displaying cases of displacement homelessness and fleeing from the hoors o horrors of bombardm. the international community has failed them and because of incorrect action of newcomers to the region and naive regional actors. consequently the wage of destruction has gone beyond the arab world and reached the gates of europe and the united states and has resulted in the destruction of the relics of civility and precious works of ancient civilizations and more broadly has resulted in the death of humanity itself. we should not are forget that the roots are in the military intervention of yesterday. if we did not have the u.s. military invasion of afghanistan and iraq and the united states's unwarranted support of the zionist regime against the nation of palestine today

what it means for america's credibility in the middle east. since 1979, republican and democratic administrations have sought to contain the islamic republic of iran and prevent it from acquiring a nuclear weapons capability. our allies and partners have been -- and trusted much of their security to the u.s. because they have leave that our .ommitment were credible in this way, america's role in the region has to been -- has been to suppress competition between states with long histories of mistrust and to prevent that competition from breaking into open war. i fear this agreement will further undermine our ability and willingness to play that vital stabilizing role, our allies and partners in the middle east have increasingly come to believe that america is withdrawing from the region, and isng so at a time when i ran aggressively seeking to advance its hegemonic ambitions. now we have reached an agreement that will not only legitimize the islamic republic as a fresh -- a threshold nuclear state with an industrial enrichment capability but wi

. >>> the town of middle town and surrounding communities now changed forever. block after block of scorched earth and tonight our first real estimate of the number of homes and businesses that have been obliterated. >> and the fire has claimed the life of this woman. we hiked in and found what's left of the home where she died when she was unable to evacuate on her own. we have an awful lot to tell you about tonight. good evening i'm heather holmes in tonight for julie haener. >> and i'm frank somerville. tonight's cooler temperatures have helped firefighters to build containment. it's now at 25%. and they've also been able to get a count of the lost homes. the fire has burned 62,000 acres but only a small amount of that in the past 24 hours. our live team coverage begins in middletown with deborah villalon and what she's learned now from a disabled woman from anderson springs who died after her home burned to the ground. >> reporter: when people talk about this fire they often say they're surprised. more people weren't hurt or killed. but a local family is mou

look at the map of the world of the middle east in 2009 and look at a map of the middle east today. and tell me how things are going. [applause] leon: this is no alternative. the argument that there was no alternative to this deal that gives respite of 10 and 15 years gives resspite of 7 and 12 or 3 and eight or one month and six months. this is some sort of a gain. if the deal is a bad deal. if it's a good deal. and does not furnish the solution to the problem it sets out to solve. i don't know how it can be defended. the only thing that matters to me is we get out of the strategic problem posed to develop a nuclear military exarkte and i see no evidence that this is what this agreement accomplishes. we get a band-aid and they get a bank et. i have a -- banquet. we are being played the fools. i believe this agreement, this negotiation was not conducted in the spirit of tough leadership that suzanne mentioned earlier. toughness is not the word i would describe. it was conducted in the spirit of reconciliation. and i have nothing against reconciliation. we should talk to our enemies

joining us tonight to talk about all of this, the middle east, eastern europe, former u.s. ambassador to the united nations, american enterprise institute senior fellow john bolton, also fox news contributor, former pentagon official, fox news national security analyst k.t. mcfarland. start with the middle east, john bolton, i don't know if there are words to describe what this administration is doing. it has just legitimized in my opinion russian military presence and influence and activities in the middle east from which it's been proscribed for some 40 years, and i don't think this administration gives one wit that it has done so. >> i think you're exactly right. this is a huge strategic setback for the united states in a region of vital national interests. we have no counterstrategy to what the russians are up to, and their aims go well beyond syria. they're selling arms again to egypt which they haven't done since the 1970s, they'll provide a sophisticated air defense to iran, prying and probing for american weaknesses all over the region. this is a fire bell in the ni

it's not confined to the middle east. we see vladimir putin continue to dismember ukraine.ow some phony separatist elections are going to be held in the area that he now controls. the chinese leader made some nice comments about how they would stop the hacking that is -- that they have been able to compromise our most important industrial military and other secrets. we'll see if that happens. but they're also continuing their expansion of the islands in the south china sea. throughout the world, an absence of american leadership is very visible and very understood by nations throughout the world. and today, we see vladimir putin attacking with his airplanes, not just isis, but others who are enemies of bashar assad. and i'd like to also add that these airstrikes are indiscriminate in nature, and there has been no attempt whatsoever to stop the horrible barrel bombing, as general david petraeus recommended before the armed services committee just a few days ago. so this is a bad day. and it's a time for american leadership. and it's a time that president obama woke up to the

bush went all the way into the middle east and the greater middle east and barack obama came in and wascted to do one thing. the reason he is president is to extract. but the michael corlioni rule plays out. when i thought he was out, he's back in. this argument takes place every day, if we had done more in 2011 and 2012 to stabilize the syrian situation to move assad out before isis developed the way it did, would that have worked? with that have worked? i asked the president that directly. this is where he gave the famous answer, you know, a bunch of dentists and carpenters and , so theand blacksmiths carpenters and blacksmiths, you know, obama had the view early on they'd never defeat the combined forces of hezbollah and the revolutionary guard corps. and he may have been right. but action and inaction has consequences. i think there is a fair critique to be made that we should have done, we and the rest of the world should have done more before we had the spillover effect. charlie: i don't think he ever saw the urgency of the deal and i think at every turn they would say we have rec
