happening with china and the chinese filled production and -- around the world and the impact it has had on everybody else that would be a no-brainer. i do not understand. i am not close enough to it but i do not understand why that has not come together. in the past, i've been told the eu has its own state enterprises which is part of a challenge here. but yeah. if we look at what the common elements are even as we move towards more industrial policy in response to china or worker centric, whatever we are doing. how much of it is -- is there a way of containing the trade distorting and on the other side -- >> we have one more online here.

-- fighting over -- policies and european trade workers. should we be recognizing that current air of great power competition and be sure that we are jointly supporting -- democratic values. is the answer yes? [laughter] >> yes but i am not sure where that leads you. europeans should drop their objects and -- objections then. >> think we are about out of time. -- there was one about trump and it disappeared i do not know what we will do about that.

you spoke earlier about a worker centric -- approach. and in economics they always teach us about the economic cost of trade area i am wondering if there is a hidden inside reality that certain aspects of the manufacturing sectors cannot be compensated for it and that workers cannot be effectively retrained into the service sector or hired technology industries. we seen the evidence you mentioned -- mixed reviews -- do you think that is the case or that we have not had the right policies to target specific manufacturing sector? >> that's a really good question. i think -- answered that more honestly. and i think we need to make that

omission that there are some industries that will come back. -- we have a surface safe economy that is where the center of our jobs are but we still have the u.s. presidential elections coming down to the industrial -- michigan pennsylvania and all of that. so everybody thinks we will bring back jobs and we say that and we did not want to dishonestly say. we've got to move people into a different way of thinking of education training. that is what i think was told about us for a mobile policy not just in training but terms of education -- and that is the challenge we have how do we prepare for various different workforces. because one thing that frustrates all of our administration, there are

millions of jobs out here that are open that americans are equipped for. so we have to more honestly -- in that conversation think about how we prepare for those opportunities. and i think that is broader than just the trade. >> i could not agree more. -- if we were negotiating together and i am urgently for free trade and you say no it's really going to hurt -- by electric. and i say what are you looking for? and you say i'm looking for more education and then we could try to get a program and we could put that together and make it a more attractive package. that is what the benefit in my view is of when we every tuesday -- had five cabinet officers who

had different approaches and priorities. but you could try to make your priorities -- by listening. and thinking about how to make their priorities more realistic. >> i would like to defend my honor against ron's comment. i am not prepared to give up on american manufacturing. i think american manufacturing is changing. 49% of workers in the manufacturing vector are performing service jobs and increasing service jobs are digital services related jobs and we need to be better positioned as a company. because your question, i think my answer is we have not figured out or pursued the policies we need to pursue.

-- we looked at the training programs there are done sins of worker training programs -- in terms of having demand for the worker training programs where people know where the jobs are needed and what they need to do to get those jobs. we look the on just four year university education and unnecessary criteria. we look at skills and hiring that the private sector is going into now read there's a lot better we can do here that would link to the demand of the market with worker retraining and create the kind of confidence -- as we are buffeted by economic ups and downs and while we are competing in a global economy, that the worker cannot only survive, but thrive. that is the worker central

policy. >> and that is the change in manufacturing i talked about with the washington post this morning. we did a article about exactly that in ohio and how the nature -- the nature of things is very different now than it was 20 years ago. >> what is your thought on agricultural production -- out of the united states. in 1790, 90% of the u.s. workforce was on a farm. today it is less than 2%. and no one would argue about having -- in agriculture. -- we are also highly productive in agriculture. >> we are over time so i will ask you each one sentence -- your meeting with president biden and the states a traditional question. you have one minute to tell him something. what would you say? i will go that way.

will start there and go this way. what is one thing you would tell us. >> if he could accomplish everything he wants to do with lifting up workers and rebuilding our economy and -- finding a way to reengage the departments. but i will take his new approach. >> i would certainly encourage joining the transpacific partnership. but also, having small working groups on specific issues to try to find a position of compromise would be a good thing. we do not have a good rhetoric -- for those deemed to be adversaries or those that are partners. it took us five years to bring back the high level that we have with mexico. i do that we did not need to

talk about some of the things that we could move forward on. >> the longest single sentence in a century. >> very little good goes on in the world of trade without u.s. leadership. and u.s. leadership requires engaging in the national economic system as well. >> last word. >> if we are back in the era of -- power tech there is no more cost effective means of u.s. rejecting soft power making friends and influencing people then -- trade policy. >> a lot of words of wisdom. i would like to remain hopeful for you. these think our guests.
