Summary

The job market in the U.S. is looking more promising as weekly jobless claims hit their lowest level since September 1969, though the December numbers were lower than projected. Mike Rowe, host of ‘Dirty Jobs’ on the Discovery Channel, and narrator of ‘How America Works’ on The FOX Business Network, explains what the labor shortage in the U.S. means for the direction work culture is heading, the importance of building bridges between blue-collar and white-collar workers, and why he wants his show to give a spotlight to Americans doing difficult, essential work. Crime is a growing concern for many Americans and political leaders, who are being pressured by their constituents to do something about it. With three weeks left in the year, annual murder records are already broken in at least a dozen big cities. On top of that, a rash of 'smash-and-grab' robberies nationwide has retailers worried. Bill Daly, a former FBI investigator, and international security consultant discusses what's driving the uptick in violent crimes. Plus, commentary from FOX News Contributor Joe Concha.
