>> that's the question john stossel will be forced to answer against his will.ed after him which airs on the fox business network. >> not against my will. it's just awful because this is the created destruction that helps make us prosperous. that includes firing some people sometimes. i mean, if the -- if the old telephone operators and the icemen were never fired or the typewriter makers, would that be bad for america? no. >> isn't this all part of the class warfare, though, because there are so many more people who are not bankers or people in private equity and stuff like that. when you're looking at people in a mansion or somebody who has got a big job who have created jobs, you know, it's easy to hate the guy who has got the rolls royce. >> yes, but plus one more thing. it's not intuitive to understand how firing people can help anybody. and the idea that most of those people and it's awful when the people get fired. and you feel for them. and the press makes it worse because you cover what's seen and we can see it on the last day when they get fired. but w

john stossel says he knows.makes jobs illegal. >> juliet: joining us now, john stossel. he's the host of "stossel" on "fox business" network. jobs that are illegal. you can elaborate on this. >> i talked to a bunch of ceo's that say i couldn't have started my company with today's rules 'cause the government adds 80,000 pages every year of new proposals and rules. think about it. 1,000 page has week. would you invest your money if you don't know what the rules are going to be? >> juliet: give me an example of a rule they add, have added recently. >> steve: there are so many. why do you start? >> the epa has declared fine particlate matter illegal. this terrifies anybody going to manufacture anything. i tried to open a lemonade stand outside the studio. >> juliet: how did that go? >> what that took. all the rules for that. lemonade for sale. i tried to open a simple lemonade stand but couldn't make it through the month of legal hoops required. so i did this without a permit. fox's lawyer gave me the okay if i didn

here is the host of "stossel" on the fox business network, john stossel joining us live. >> i think it's fair. is it fair in 22 states, workers are forced to join a union like i used to be at abc and is it fair that alisyn is good looking and you're not? life is unfair. >> you're right. it's not fair. when our president is talking about fair, some say he's talking about that to make it easier for wealth redistribution. let's -- you've got a lot of money. that person doesn't have so much. it's fair if he takes some of your money and gives it over to that person. >> and that seems fair to people. >> the problem is -- >> is that fair to you? >> to some extent. when government gets big, people get small and the worst isn't that government makes us poor which it does but it makes us less and it takes decision making power from people. >> is it fair that the politically connected investors get the money of the united states federal treasury? >> no, i would say it's not fair that some people who don't believe in birth control are forced to pay for other people's birth control. we can go on and

the host of "stossel" on the fox business network joins us right now. john stossel.the thing that gets you so angry is nobody ever takes away a law, they're adding laws. >> the politicians rate themselves how many laws i passed. so every week they added another 1,000 pages. and i like the graphic that you guys made up. all these rules kill jobs. >> right. >> what did you find when you went out there, you know, from the lemonade stand to interacting with people? >> well, just how -- you know, a few kids, they don't often enforce it very much, with a lemonade stand. to do it would have taken 65 days. you can do it if you give everybody their money back and don't let them drink the lemonade. how stupid is that for a lemonade stand? what is it like if you want to be a real entrepreneur? >> we have some laws that have been pulled out like, for example, in marion, indiana, no pedestrian should cross any street by the shortest route of the opposite curb except in a crosswalk. is this an example of what we see over and over again? >> on my show tonight, a stay-at-home mom in

magazine sage is my senior staj stossel but i worked closely with her, my senior and myself have been associated with the magazine for many years and my sister sage has a familiarity with the archives. we knew there were very few publications. in fact, you know, probably you can count on three fingers the number of magazines that exist today that were still -- that were published in 1857. for us to be able -- this is one of the things that feels special and important to us. going back to 1857 we're actually able to -- you know, "time" magazine, "new yorker," many great publications weren't there on the ground publishing real time reported stories. so, it was a real sort of labor of love. and great fun to go back and we had to be fairly rigorous and sometimes make painful decisions about what to excise and not include because you can only include so much in a magazine of this size. we went back and looked at the entire scope of things we published on the civil war and tried to pick, you know, what are the best and most interesting and a representative sampling that tells a narrative st

my first favorite from john stossel. if you're not paying attention i think it's your patriotic duty to not vote. that's the frame that we're seeing a lot of legislation being passed and using that sort of approach an mentality thinking about voting rights. so very quickly, you look at demographic shifts. from 2011 to 2031, 10,000 people per day will reach 65 years of age. for those 80 and over, the growth is twice that of those the age of 65. we talked already about growth population rates. and i think these are important to think about as we frame these comments going forward. as we look at new voting restrictions, we look at photo id restrictions, we've had so far seven laws passed. we have additionally constitutional amendment in mississippi, three documents new cases of citizen, 13 introduced. laws making voter registration harder. making it harder to restore voting rights. we talk about the photo id laws. in most cases we're talking about the no photo no vote requirements. we saw 34 states introducing laws to requi

man he is the man who are i would think most our people except this i marry stossel the paramedics are south korean there's a tribunal now that's only if it's evident i think it's a crying scar thirty years on and they're going to give their evidence and he's basically asking for her daughter who gives us and see what our clients are of course you know i mean. we the scholars are still in the actions of he was a member of congress and you have a problem there. i mean this is the moscow that was on. this call blank check who has proof of money certainly around you know where the money came from and he said that money came from placing bets talk horses so i mean the fish rots the arabs under the i think you are right there at the coroner's office and he is ultimately responsible and that's remember who we should look for what the people most of the honor on looks are so it's a poor child i would never be my persecutor has been recruited in the wealthy but that's i think that makes absolute sense you know and we need to learn the lessons of what's happened. so for this cause the. right to

john stossel, another senior fellow along with dan mitchell and myself at cato, got a great program he did last night, i didn't see it but he sent me a note it will be broadcast twice this weekend, about how we have all these felonies and i just taped a show with john at the beginning of the week on cayman and 4,000 felonies, federal, not talking about state and local, but federal felonies. now, how many of you can remember the ten commandments? if you can remember all ten put up your hand. there's a few of you out there. okay. the irs expects you to know 77,000 pages of regulations. how many can do that? you know, 4,000 felonies. i'm willing to bet that everyone of you out there has committed a felony at some time and you don't know it. because things which you would never consider felonies, you see these things that somebody puts a load of dirt in their backyard pond. my place in great falls, i actually put a pond in years ago, then i was informed that i can't get rid of the pond that i put in if i ever wanted to get rid of the pond. i mean, it just gets in this kind of endless ludic

she and him he is the man who i would think most are who accept this primary stossel repairer message ourselves then there's a tribunal now to some if it's ever finding softer shears and hand there that they're going to give their evidence and he's basically investigated for corruption and who gives us and see how often fines are up. you know i mean he so there's also some allegations of he was a member of congress and the other party. i mean this is the little song. he was called check earth has to do with money floating around you know where the money in common any sort of money came from placing bets on course so i mean the fish rots bears and. i think like a partner's eyes and ears open of ears also when i scream and we should not say what the people most of the owner are on looks good so it's a poor shop i'm going to ever be my personal going to her office you never heard of her in the courtly but that's. my stuff that says you know i'm going to learn lessons of i walk south and here are. some things cost. right i might have earned thanks so much for being on the kaiser par at a

now back to stossel.sel's illegal everything. >>> our government adds thousands of new laws ever year. the feds added 80,000 pages of laws. and state and local laws we're drowning in rules. >> this could lead to the police locking me up. given the police have the power to lock me up, or shoot me, it's important that we be able to keep an eye on them. >> fortunately that is easier today even our phones have cameras and camera is a powerful tool, watching the watcher. >> you are going away. >> the problem is that often the watchmen don't want to be watched. >> a highway patrol told pete stop your rv. pete is an activist to that likes to videotape encounters with authorities. >> turn that camera off, please. >> how come? >> turn it off for me. >> he had broken no traffic laws but he was suspicion of his big trailer with new hampshire plates. he filmed the encounter. i would like to keep everybody accountable and the police officer didn't like that. another arrived and said -- >> i'm not turning it off. >> yo

and now, john stossel. i tried to get the permits to open a legal lemonade stand outside the studio but it's almost impossible. when kids sell lem noid authorities usually ignore the laws and lets them do it. and here is an entrepreneur who made big bucks when he sold his car and started sprint and then your ten-year-old daughter asks for a turtle and what happened. >> she wanted a turtle. had too many pets, i said no. the next morning she gets a great idea to start a lemonade stand. >> she wanted money to buy her own stand? >> right. >> and this is how america works, when you want something, start a company, create it. >> it was the most unbelievable day we had together and it really got-- >> why? >> because i saw the light bulbs go off her head for the first time she really understood how free enterprise worked, how business works. and how money works. and it exposed her to what america is all about. >> and it occurred to me, what an incredible opportunity for us to do this all across the country, jump st

as fox's john stossel recently reported, these days america's youngest entrepreneurs are increasinglyt risk of being shut down for violating local ordinances such as on food safety. if your own grandchildren were enthusiastic about opening up their own lemonade stand would you council they first make sure it would be legal to do so or are you going to just take the risk, the risk of venture capital and provide them with the powder concentrate and the paper cups? >> governor we have about a minute to answer the lemonade question here? >> my question is kids be able to open up lemonade stands. you got to have freedom in this country. one of the problems we have right now is there are so many bureaucrats in washington and they lived there so long they try to think of new things they can do to somehow make america better. there are too many of them. get them out of there. let entrepreneurs, small -- i am thinking about kids. i mean entrepreneurs of all kind open their doors start businesses. we have regulators on regulators trying to direct our lives. that's not what america is. you think
