stuart: wait a second. taxing the rich is still a popular political mantra, and this is the proposal with these surtaxes, tax the rich. now, that remains popular, does it not? >> sometimes, it is popular as a sound bite on the campaign trail, but a lot of the american people are very suspicious, and rightfully so, that when politicians are aiming at the rich, is the middle class that gets hit in the crossfire. -- it is the middle-class. the one thing that your viewers should understand, there are not enough rich people to finance big government, so they use "tax the rich" as the rhetoric, but they go after regular people to fund their skiing. stuart: only half of the people who work in america pay income tax -- to fund their scheme. you have passed be tipping point. why should those who do not pay tax worry about those that do when they are in the majority? >> well, what happens if we, western europe, with 60% of the population mooching off the government and never having a reason to vote for more economic

stuart hoffman, what is the g.d.p. report telling us about economic activity now? start with the good news. >> well, the good news is the economy still declined in the second quarter by 1%, a little less than expected. but back in the winter quarter, late last year and the first quarter this year, that rate of decline was around 5.5 to 6.5%. that was sort of like a freefall, but feeling like you're skydiving. i think what happened in the second-quarter report is sort of like finally somebody pulled the rip chord and the chute opened and the economy is still coming down. but i think we're nearly on the ground and at the end, the tail end of this very long and painful recession. >> reporter: and what does that mean, stuart hoffman, in terms of business activity, that means had that they're not cutting back as much as they were? they're still cutting, perhaps, but not as much as before? >> that they will still be cutting jobs. i suspect we will hear over the summer months continued loss in jobs, a further rise in the unemployment rate that usually lags by a quarter or

and i would agree with stuart. a lot of these improvements in these earnings have been cost-cutting but really if you think back at this point in the cycle, you know, i can think back over the last three or four cycles, that's what a lot of people are arguing is that hey, most of these improvements have been due to cost cutting. it's pretty typical at this point of the cycle. and i think you can expect some very slow consumer spending growth and things like that coming out of this. i would agree this is going to be a slow comeback to, you know, what we had before, and i think we're going to be -- this is a multiyear period of recovery, i think. >> stuart, so how would you play that? >> well, i do think we're in an up phase for now. and if that's right and we've got some cyclical momentum in this economy, i think small cap stocks outperformed big caps. normally they do in a cyclical upswing. and we had a little bit of outperformance by small caps, though not nearly as much as i think we have the potential to go. the

." >>> outside the immediate family of stuart cink, was there a person not polling for tom watson? he was in position to become the oldest player to ever win a major. he needed this putt for the win. it never had a chance. he collapsed in a four-hole playoff. cink collected his first major. >> it would have been a hell of a story. it was not to be. >> tom has his name on this five times. i played well all enough to win this tournament and i did win it. >> watson says he will be back to challenge again next year. lance armstrong will probably not win the tour de france. armstrong moved up to exit from fourth overall. he did lose some time from the winner. they get today off. they will race again on tuesday. >>> a group of soldiers are heading home with their lives. they were in camp led all in afghanistan. their job was to disrupt al qaeda and the taliban. they survived more attacks than any other base, earning the name can help. >> its is a beautiful space. it is so deadly. >> after experiencing this, if i ever do a job interview again and ask if you have ever been in a stressful s

bill: stuart varney leads coverage from the fox business network. good morning to you. how does this affect everything? >> the language is being manipulated. a cadillac plan, those that not sound like lavish care for the rich? it is simply not true. the vast majority of plans that cost $25,000 per year or more cover people that are already sick or the elderly. what is going on here is a form of class war. we invented class warfare where i came from. this is a good example of it. sounds bad, does it not? cadillac coverage? it drives me nuts, bill. bill: you can recognize it when you see it. what does that look like? >> it looks like that it is not fair, look at how much of the rich are getting, look at what they can afford. tax them, bring them down to earth, make them like us. that is what is at work. believe me. it will not bring in the money that they think it will. they are talking about $25,000 per year or more in health care benefits. do that and they say they will bring in more in 10 years. really? 0.3% of all health-care plan's cost more than that every year. the

washington, the older states man with the white hair and rather all court chief and of the gilbert stuart paintings. george washington when he took command of the continental army in the summer of 1775 was 43-years-old. he was a young man, in the prime of life, 6-foot 2 inches, very strong physically and one of the outstanding horstman of his age. jefferson said he was the great wissman of his age, very impressive man to see who appeared at cambridge in a beautiful uniform impeccable retailer to and he wished to be what they saw him as which was the commander and he thought a leader of not only act like a leader but look like a leader. he cared about details and about appearances. he cared about the appearance of his house, his carriage, but equal bids for his horses. he cared about his gardens, about everything that reflected in who he was and what he represented. and this is very important to understand because the army he led had no uniforms. the army he led looked like farmers from the fields which is what most of them work. even in the beginning before they began to go through the te

let's get to stuart varney from the fox business network. guns are already out on this one? >> they do not just oppose it, they hate this proposal. you have got a full-scale revolt brewing right now. basically, small business hates it for three financial reasons. one, paying for it, the house proposes a surcharge on high income. lots of small income people face a big tax increase. no. 2, they face fines and increased costs if this goes through, because this bill says that everybody has got to be covered in a small business. if you do not, you pay 8% on your payroll. a huge increase in cost. 3, they can already not borrow money. small business cannot get access to the money that it wants. three financial problems with this bill and they are in revolt. jon: even the house and senate bill, all of them being discussed, every single measure saying that they need to be covered. the house bill stands apart because of the way that it will be paid for. this tax on the rich is different from what we expect to come out of these proposals. jon: thank you, stu. jane: this morning, the fi
