So on \u2018How America Works,\u2019 for instance, tonight we look at salt production. We meet the men, a guy named Raoul Flores, down in Carslbad, New Mexico, to get a better understanding of how reliant we are on salt and what it takes to get it out of the ground and on to the roads so interstate commerce can exist. It\u2019s a real simple look at that job. It\u2019s also a very clever recruiting mechanism, because when you look at a show like this, you see people who love their jobs; you see them prospering; you see them moving the needle and contributing in a meaningful way to society.\u201d\u201cSo my thing is to try and get to 300 million other people who are daily unimpressed with the fact that the lights come on when we flick the switch or the poop goes away when we flush the toilet.
