rather cut tax force rich people than they would invest in bowling green and university of toledo and akron u and ohio state and o.u. and miami. that's the first problem. second is we -- congress hasn't nearly kept up on pell grants with what we should being doing. not even close. third, we're working on a match for the federal, but you this will take money and president trump and mitch mcconnell and paul ryan have decided that a tax cut of $1.5 trillion, 70% going to the richest people in the country is more important than investing in the next generation. you know all that. you are here. we have got to figure out how to assist in funding of state universities at a minimum. not that that takes care of all the problems. last, we need -- i work with senator kennedy my first year in the senate, first or second year, on allowing forgiveness of loans for people who did public service. that could be anything from americorps, to nursing, to police officers, to teaching at community college. or public school teaching or being a superintendent, or whatever. accelerate after 10 years, debt is cancel

and we have a lot to offer them between cleveland and pittsburgh and akron and youngstown, four airportsrce. we just lost a general motors factory, chuck, that was almost 2,000 of the best paying jobs in our community, so i'm going to aggressively pursue getting them in our xunt. i think it would be a signal for them to say, look, we need a more conscious capitalism. we need a more fair capitalism that actually cuts workers in on the deal, cuts communities in on the deal. like companies like patagonia and unilever and southwest where it's not just about shareholders. it's about stakeholders. and we need more of that, and this could be an opportunity for amazon to take the lead. i will tell you, i will be at event this weekend in my community, and i will guarantee you i will have 50 to 100 people come up to me and say do you think we really have a shot at getting amazon? because we need the work. >> i notice you used the world capitalism a few time there's. there's this rising democratic socialism movement inside the democratic party. where do you stand on it? and obviously, you are a cap

this is a serious problem why is akron, ohio one of the major dropoff points coming from mexico?, some in have led the state in meth labs traditionally that's how people were producing meth in those two counties and they e ceased upon that demand problem in two counties and realized they could produce are it cheaper and ship it into our establish network and logistic network to make a higher profit selling it cheaper in those counties. >> how do they get in? >> across -- >> across the border and legal points of entry. it is placed in legitimate loads that are coming across, meth is generally from mexico diluted in some type of hydrocarbon diesel fuel. you can place it in the tank of a truck that is bringing tomatoes over across the border. drop off the legitimate load of tomatoes, and then make a pit stop to have that meth and diesel fuel pumped out and then shipped to a point north near the source city usually akron, ohio for us where it is reconstituted and sold. it is not just border security from ours aspect we have an addiction problem. it is not just meth it is not just opi

economy has continued to them perform, even as are actually were actual energy use estate flat, and akron has -- greenhouse gas missions have gone down, but one of the most important things is we have create state- based incentives to encourage our businesses to head into this direction and we have about 100,000 jobs now in massachusetts that are related to the green economy getting back to the point that gov. cooper made previous the, which is even in massachusetts, the solar industry has been very successful at finding a path forward and we are now paring solar investments with storage and that's another area where the federal government can play a big role. storage has tremendous potential, and has tremendous potential in both price, and environmental issues. the time we typically burn the most environmentally dangerous fuels at the highest price is when it is really cold out, or really hot out, and, you know, we are paying a ton for what we get and most of the time it is our most environmentally dangerous sources, and i think storage is a big opportunity to do something about that. >>

you this, that i will do everything in my power to locate 25,000 jobs in the middle of cleveland, akronrports and everything they want to build their company. do i agree with the tools and economics that have to be given away to these companies? absolutely not. do i think the rich should pay more taxes? yes, i think they should. we need private investment in these communities to bring them back in. globalization generates a lot of wealth. yes, it does. it just doesn't go to every community. 80% goes to california, new york and massachusetts. and 90% go to women and less than 2% go to african-americans. we've got a big and just in northeast, ohio. i'm not going to ask for any subsidies. eem going to ememploy people -- i'm going to show american corporations how they need to do business in the future, how to be a conscious business that cares about their workers, not just about shareholders but stake holder, the workers, the community and everything else that goes along with it, the supply chain. he could be a transformative corporate figure. we want to give him the opportunity to do that
