. >> lehrer: police in france bulldozed a makeshift immigrant camp today near the city of calais. they cleared out hundreds of illegal immigrants, many from afghanistan, waiting to cross the english channel to britain. officers detained nearly 300 people. the site had become a thorn in french-british relations. human traffickers promised passage across the channel for huge fees, and then deserted the immigrants. in economic news, there was word the u.s. government might borrow heavily from large, healthy banks to help insure deposits. "the new york times" reported the federal deposit insurance corporation needs billions of dollars. it's financially strapped after a series of bank failures. other options include imposing an emergency fee on banks or tapping a line of credit with the u.s. treasury. on wall street today, the dow jones industrial average gained 51 points to close near 9,830. the nasdaq rose eight points to close at 2146. >> lehrer: and still to come on the newshour tonight: storing solar power; shifting the afghan strategy; and poet heather mchugh. that follows the la

depending on how you can calais, some research shows a quarter of legal immigrants haven't graduated high school and some research shows third haven't graduated from high school. so a very large faction of the illegal flow can be described as unskilled. at present most legal immigrants are allowed in the country because they have a relative year. this means that most legal immigrants are selected without regard to eir education, whether their impact on taxpayers or the health care system. if we want to avoid large cost for taxpayers in the health care system, we would need to significantly reduce the number of legal immigrants who are allowed in in the future who have very little education. i think there is still one final point that bears mentioning. a large share of legal immigrants on medicaid under large share of illegal immigrants without health insurance should not be seen as some kind of moral defect on the part of immigrants. the vast majority of immigrants, legal or iegal, you come to the united states to get free health care, or to sign up for welfare programs. though that

we have been at this now for a couple of years, and i would say looking at calais looking in the audiences a wide open and receptive area that we've been running into as we have talked to people. they are actually not try to understand more. they are asking for ways to do it. they are asking the right questions. what do you mean by value, what are the outcomes. i assess safety and service to. to many other groups are saying we can't measure outcomes. too many people are saying we can't measure quality. i completely reject that it is measurable. they are asking, okay, they're saying how do we do it. and we are getting in examples and their many other groups giving examples. the dartmouth group and others. they are all talking about these kinds of concepts with folks, so i think we have come from where we were one year ago, a significant way down the road that people are actually open to the idea. we are seeing it in legislation that they don't all know exactly what that means. it's not clear just yet, but the institute of medicine have been having meetings about what is tight and how to de
