Once years ago, 4 00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:24,279 Speaker 2: Reggie Jackson was sitting next to me, the giant of 5 00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:27,520 Speaker 2: Yankees Baseball, and I'd done a little bit of my 6 00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:31,320 Speaker 2: time keen homework, and I said, did you ever talk 7 00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:36,400 Speaker 2: to your father about playing with Willie Mays? And he 8 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:42,520 Speaker 2: stopped cold out of Oakland, California, generations ago talking about 9 00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:47,280 Speaker 2: his father and the impact that Willie Mays had on him. Today, 10 00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:50,920 Speaker 2: we had that in Bloomberg Surveillance and single best idea. 11 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:55,480 Speaker 2: We had a football player who completely changed the game. 12 00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:58,600 Speaker 2: There's maybe two or three others across the span of 13 00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 2: one hundred years that have done it. Frank Tarketing came in. 14 00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:04,760 Speaker 2: I didn't say it on air, I said seventy nine 15 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:09,119 Speaker 2: in holding. He is the most vigorous eighty five year 16 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:13,200 Speaker 2: old I have ever met. It was just an extraordinary 17 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:16,400 Speaker 2: moment to speak to frand targetin about the state of 18 00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:21,840 Speaker 2: the game, about his really unique background in Georgia and 19 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:26,040 Speaker 2: in Washington, and of course about the future of technology, 20 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:29,759 Speaker 2: which he's working on as a business enterprise right now. 21 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 2: The business enterprise of America is about jobs. Nancy Lazarre 22 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:38,200 Speaker 2: was with US hyper Sandler Today. Here's Nancy Lazarre on 23 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:40,520 Speaker 2: our manufacturing renaissance. 24 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 1: We've called it the US manufacturing renaissance started back in 25 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 1: twenty ten. Middle America. It is our favorite emerging market. 26 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 1: You're seeing it certainly within on employment rates around individual 27 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 1: states that are more business are more business friendly. So 28 00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 1: and current policies certainly are going to reinforce bringing back 29 00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 1: blue collar jobs to the United States, and so we're 30 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 1: quite excited. At first. The private sector started back in 31 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 1: twenty ten, the corporate tax cut in seventeen reinforced it, 32 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:11,360 Speaker 1: and now full capex appreciation is going as another major 33 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:16,360 Speaker 1: booster shot for the kind of reindustrialization of the United States, 34 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,800 Speaker 1: which is a necessary backbone for every economy. I worry 35 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 1: about Germany, Europe in general, by allowing China to come 36 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 1: in and dump cars. You need a diverse source of 37 00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:28,840 Speaker 1: jobs because we have a diverse labor force. 38 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,800 Speaker 2: Nancy Lazarre back in July with one of the great 39 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 2: moments of the year for US where she just flat 40 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 2: outsaid the issue is job formation in America. Nancy Lazar 41 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 2: far more optimistic now here at the end of the year, 42 00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:48,399 Speaker 2: as she was in July and in this summer. Sometimes 43 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:51,240 Speaker 2: can be an impact as unmeasurable. Michael Green is a 44 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 2: Simplify asset management hugely popular on Bloomberg Surveillance. He wrote 45 00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:59,919 Speaker 2: a substack essay about the poverty line in a mayor. 46 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:04,799 Speaker 2: It truly went viral within the zeitgeist, to the point 47 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 2: it made the front page of the Washington Post. Michael 48 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:11,560 Speaker 2: Green on the poverty line. 49 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 3: First, there are multiple poverty lines right across the country. 50 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 3: If you live in a high cost region, you're going 51 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 3: to have a very different experience than if you live 52 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,360 Speaker 3: in a low cost region. But the overall point was 53 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 3: when you start thinking about what we define as the 54 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 3: poverty line currently at about thirty one two hundred dollars 55 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:28,520 Speaker 3: for a family of four, two earners, two children, that 56 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:31,360 Speaker 3: doesn't come anywhere close to meeting the needs of a 57 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 3: family that is living in a place like Caldwell, New Jersey, 58 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 3: where the calculation works out to about one hundred and 59 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 3: thirty six thousand, five hundred dollars and needs to be 60 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 3: made before you can even start saving a dime. Wow, 61 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 3: that's an extraordinary feeling of Percarty when we talk about 62 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 3: the dynamic that most American households can't afford something to break, 63 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 3: can't afford an emergency expense, et cetera. 64 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 2: That's why Michael Green of Simplify off of his substack 65 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 2: can't say enough about subscribing to many of our guests 66 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 2: at their substack size. Michael Green, Mohammad al Arian, and 67 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 2: Paul Krugman out there, Adam Too's professor. Too's writing on 68 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 2: a very often basis as well. We're on podcasts on Apple, 69 00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:19,040 Speaker 2: on Spotify, on YouTube podcasts.
