they stop tapering -- melissa: i guess. what is tragic about this, the markets, everything we've been through the since the financial crisis, some indices up 120%, 175%, depending where you're looking in the market. housing is up, 10 or 11%. for the average person that got scared of market during the downturn they missed this creation of wealth totally created by policies out of washington. veronica. >> they totally missed it and they're still very cautious and not taking advantage what is happening now. they have a lot of money on the sidelines still. they're very skeptical and afraid. melissa: that is true. >> but that is their problem, let's be honest. if you have money -- melissa: very heartless, charlie gasparino. >> if you don't put money -- listen, i hate the fact that the fed is printing money. it will come crashing down. but you don't play here you're an idiot. >> tapering less. so everybody was afraid of that. it is doing just fine. >> that's what i'm saying. i should point out, the taper means almost nothing because

if it attacks your blood vessels, what can happen those blood vessels get damaged. the blood vessels carry you oxygen, it is carrying you nutrients that all your organs need. if you think about it sort of like trying to drink something, from a bottle versus through a straw, if you have a bottle or open glass of water it is really open so you can get a lot of water but if you have a straw you get a lot less. that is exactly what is happening with your blood vessels. melissa: type-2 diabetes is most common but cause is unknown, right? >> it is unknown but seems linked to obesity. when numbers are going up then the numbers of people with diabetes are going up. there are a couple different things that are going on that might cause numb brothers to go up. in terms of things being promising though, one of the things that is good we are making a lot of advances. so medical care is improving for diabetes. a lot of medications are getting better. a lot of technology is getting better even glue cometters. people have a lot more knowledge

replace the people at the counter as the price becomes more expensive to have those folks there they automate. >> it is happening already but this is going to accelerate that. we are talking the fast-food industry. these are starter jobs. if you raise the wage to $10, $12 an hour you will destroy lot of those jobs and people won't have the first job that gets them to the second or third that teaches them to run a cash register all these things. melissa: they can't afford to pay this. we talked to other small business owners who say -- >> i have interviewed a lot of people in these burger kings and mcdonald's and potpies restaurants and you think of the mess huge conglomerate that these are not rich people. they are very low margins on their stores and you raise those prices, at burger king they have the dollar menu, they don't have the capacity to raise prices. melissa: people don't know 15% of mcdonald's are owned by the corporation, they think of the

support a family. melissa: i would love to address the point we through your way. what do you think of the idea of getting together and having a restaurant where if your goal is to pay folks $15 an hour not to make a profit or whatever the goal of another business might be why not do that and set the example? >> two points about that. is a nice idea that might be a model and actually the store would do well because they would have less labor turnover and would save money. on the other hand this is a societal issue, we have a shrinking disappearing middle class. it needs to be addressed systemically. like saying a handicapped workers are not treated right they should treat their own store. the economy has been bad -- melissa: paying $15 an hour, doesn't address the shrinking -- not enough money to get you to the middle class. >> the average wage in the united states is $20 an hour. the idea of minimum wage is not even -- only 5% of workers earn the minimum wage in the united states but i would say this.
