earlier this afternoon, the philadelphia city philadelphia, they put out an alert to the entire city saying , hey, we're advising. we're suggesting that you go out and buy bottled water because we're checking out the water supply here in philadelphia out of an abundance of caution, and that's what we've seen. people go out and rush to buy bottled water. but i just want to say, jim, two year point to that main headline. yes, the philadelphia what department is saying now it is safe to drink up until tomorrow night. so monday night , but let me explain a little bit about how we got to this point, so this is actually started back on friday evening, there was word of a chemical contamination right up against the delaware river in bristol township. it's in bucks county. it's actually 20 miles north of here. but, of course, philadelphia gets a lot of its water from the delaware river. and then that barrel and barreled the coast guard was out here. state environmental protection officials were out here as well. and this morning, the city philadelphia said. hey, adam, an abundance of caution

she suggests in philadelphia is a very dramatic kind of female academy french academy in philadelphia, which would be run always by a woman with a board of equally men and women but governed by majority votes so women would in essence have the vote and the woman who ran it would always be capable of getting speeches to 300 people in public and so this idea about education that is designed to take the the central idea about why women couldn't participate in politics, which is that women were not capable. they didn't have the right capacity and so in this sense, her idea isn't just women should get educated. it's an idea about establishing female capacity and the idea is if you can show that female that women have capacity have sort of the same intellectual capacity. man, then of course they're going to get to vote because there aren't yet gender-based explicit barriers in most places. and so one thing that's really significant is to understand that education here the desire for education the claim for education the insistence on equal education is a political claim. it's it's not a sid

so his operation is in philadelphia on south third street. he eventually hires pr firm out of new york city in second half of the war to write his pr copy for him. but at the beginning, it's him and other guy and they're just kind of holed up in his office. he occasionally go down to washington, d.c., to kind consult with his brother and also the secretary of the treasury. these bonds are going to be sold in increments as low as $50. so that kind of the masses can afford them. that's still lot of money. in 1862, your average individual is only pulling in a little over $300 a year. so a $50 bond is still a lot of money. they finance these bonds for people. so you can for ten simple, easy payments. you two can buy a $50 bond. in 1862. right. so they're trying make it so that it's easy for folks to purchase these bonds. right. you make them in small denominations. you go to them. that's what these traveling salesman are for. they to the hard to reach locales. these are not traveling salesman based in cities because in the cities people can go to

i'm very proud of philadelphia. we are often on the cutting edge, on this issue we are not cutting edge if we are evaluating pfas. we been doing that voluntarily for over year, putting the information we find on all websites and also we have been transparent and that is a major part of being successful as a water utility in this country that we cannot go back to how we operated in the 1950s and 60s. there's a need to be transparent, we've done that as far as releasing information and keeping the public informed. we have to make sure we have the machinery we need and equip and we need to analyze it. understand what we are looking at and be transparent as far as releasing information and educating the public on what we have. >> do you have any idea how much it will cost to do that? >> i don't know and the law just changed mother requirements just changed yesterday. it is now four parts per trillion before it was in philadelphia it was 14 parts per trillion. we ppt. we have to evaluate it and make decisions as we go fo

so philadelphia water, saying it is okay to drink. but then, at the same time, it's encouraging people to get bottled water. yes, i think the key word here is abundance of caution. that's the phrase that we keep hearing from philadelphia city officials when it comes to this particular water situation, but again, as you said, despite those mixed messaging people here in philadelphia, they got that little their phones. we all got that alert who lived in philadelphia, and it is not stop people from coming to supermarkets like this acne behind me and rushing to get water. we just got here a little while ago and this actually, it's a big one in south philadelphia, and we went up there and they are already out there finished with water, the last few people were able to get a little bit of a couple of jugs earlier. but aside from that, all of the water is gone here, and people have been trying to figure out well, do i get vitamin water? do i get some of these other? water brands that have, you know other flavors in it, but the regular bottle

so we're sitting here in philadelphia here in 2021. in the philadelphia that he was living in in 1776 that he marched through on the way to yorktown if you will as well. actually he sailed through it in 1781 and the like but we're part of that imagine community. we're part of an imagined community right now is we're all finally getting to see each other, but then there are those of them who are over there over zoom. so i say hi to you you're part of this imagine community. we're all together to look at this particular history, but the other part that benedict anderson had mentioned in his is that when we form these communities he talked about journeys or pilgrimages between times and statuses and places. so again, we're part of that journey. but these are meaning creating experiences that create the experience of the imagine community. and so i'd like us to consider too that when we look at the continental army as it is marching through the united states the new united states they are creating this community and it's not all imagined.

as philadelphia savings fund society. --psfs, philadelphia savings fund society. they were able to survive when other savings banks did not. we actually used psfs as a partner to take care of and take over some deals we had with respect to other banks that were not surviving. they helped us out by taking over some of them. and they got paid by the fdic to do that. and i am forever grateful to psfs they are no longer with us unfortunately. but they did a group -- a good deed for the fdic and i appreciate it. host: a text from taxes saying will this not make risk more speculative to investment and that is bad, right? guest: if we keep on bailing out the largest depositors and making them whole, it will make things worse. i don't know why we don't learn that. it has been happening for a long time. for most of the fdic's history as a nation in the fdic -- the fdic as an agency has been bailing out largest -- large depositors. to some extent we have bailed out shareholders and we've got to stop it.and we got to stop pampering

cnn's danny freeman is in philadelphia for us live for us at this hour. denny, public health officials i suppose we're trying to walk folks through all of this. you know why they can have faith in the tap water that's coming out right now, but that they might need to take precautions as the hours go on. what did you learn? that's absolutely right, jim and i'll say it's been an interesting day because we had first. you know, the entire city of philadelphia got an alert on their phone saying, hey, we're recommending to drink bottled water, if at all possible out of abundance of caution, but just in the past 10 minutes, we actually got another public safety alert. that says exactly what you said. based on the latest sampling results slash data. philadelphia water department is now confident tap water from the main water treatment plant will remain safe to drink to use at least through 11. 59 pm monday nights, at least through two tomorrow night. so we got the first alert with the warning. and now, 10 minutes ago, we got the second alert, saying that exact me

so we're sitting here in philadelphia here in 2021. in the philadelphia that he was living in in 1776 that he marched through on the way to yorktown if you will as well. actually he sailed through it in 1781 and the like but we're part of that imagine community. we're part of an imagined community right now is we're all finally getting to see each other, but then there are those of them who are over there over zoom. so i say hi to you you're part of this imagine community. we're all together to look at this particular history, but the other part that benedict anderson had mentioned in his is that when we form these communities he talked about journeys or pilgrimages between times and statuses and places. so again, we're part of that journey. but these are meaning creating experiences that create the experience of the imagine community. and so i'd like us to consider too that when we look at the continental army as it is marching through the united states the new united states they are creating this community and it's not all imagined.

benjamin franklin publishes them down in in philadelphia, especially after the 1730 epidemic. more and more evidence is is is is coming inoculations are being more successful. the people who die from inoculation tend to be very young children, babies and the elderly. the soldier age people who are soldiers in the continental army, teenage ers survive it very well. there's tremendous demand from young adults for innocuous. and you can see by 1764, most bostonian boys are demanding and receiving inoculate. and there's a general inoculate. and in boston in 1764, the entire town shuts down. they shut down trade, shut down commerce. so the whole community can be innocuous. they sit together. the trouble with inoculation and the reason why you have to do it all at once is because after your inoculate, your infectious, you're infectious for 3 to 4 weeks and you can spread natural smallpox to others during that time. so if you wanted to get inoculated, you couldn't return home. you might spread it to your to your children, to your neighbors. so they would create, isolate in hospitals,
