louis because they wanted to make their efforts more targeted and efficient is the work of big brothersbig sisters in eastern missouri working with cape gerardo public schools. i want to do a shout out to big brothers, big sisters and particularly to becky james in that community. [ applause ] in 2005 we heard in the context of listening sessions with dropouts they literally told us that they signed out of school on their 16th birthday. because in part the state gave them permission to do so. good research from the current chair of the president's council on economic advisers shows that increasing the age reduces dropout and boosts earning. so in the last decade alone 12 states have updated their laws from 16 to -- from 16 to 17 or

nine eleven but civil liberty acts or has sworn that the law is just a small step away from having big brother brother full access to private communication it requires. to install these black boxes which gives the government the ability to track all text messages e-mails phone calls where they're going who they're going to and where they were sent from and well it basically meant there is no content restrictions or they're not allowed to actually take content. thought all of this information is all they need to then get warrants and go after the contents of the e-mails anyway so there's a good parallel to us here they say that they can actually keyword search and search for phrases and search for people's names in the contents of e-mails with computer systems they answer the key words in and then they search all the e-mails and then once they find something then the e-mail get sent to the human to human beings who think it's a war and so there are ways around kind of word games and associations where the government can actually access some of the contents of the e-mails right now in great brit

states where people are watched teen and can be held that's become easier than ever do you think big brother hundred special he showed his face in this country at this point but let's look at it this way if you look back at the cointelpro era what is clear is that the f.b.i. . and their leaders and their agents knew that everything they did was illegal and f.b.i. agents were taught and trained how to break into places how to do what they called black bag jobs and that kind of stuff how to commit crimes but this is what they were also to do you better do it and you bet i could cause because if you get caught you're going to jail it will act like we've already. happened in the last twenty thirty years well not just be in d.c. but the so-called patriot act has made everything that was a clue equal back in the one nine hundred fifty s. and nineteen fifties and nineteen seventies. they legalized big legalized they legalized the very things that the f.b.i. agents and administrators knew was criminal back then that means they can look at your mail pay certainly can read your e-mail they kept your p

may have plenty of big brothers big sisters but no boys and girls clubs. so you have to look and see what your situation is, where your problems are, what your resources are and put together a comprehensive package. in the funding mechanism is actually the first award would be a funding, a planning grant. because getting all this information and getting an evidence plan together, evidence based plan together and we put evidence based in the legislation. you wonder as opposed to what? as opposed to the slogans and sound bites people would have in a plan if you didn't put evidence based in there. so you have a comprehensive evidence-based plan of action and putting that together is a significant job and you have funding to get the plan put together and then if it's successful, you'll have an award to get the plan implemented. after it's implemented, as people are saving money, it will kick back in to keep the program running, so what you would do in your locality help put together the plan, help figure out what the problems are. what your resources are to de
