Fox News Today: Jordan Belfort Explains How He Is Solving The Unemployment Crisis

“Gridlock is kind of regular business for Washington,” Belfort said about the government’s inaction. But he added that, “there are lots of jobs out there for people” and his new company, Straight Line Hiring, specializes in matching those people with open roles in sales.
