thank you for having us. you have done a hell of a job. i think everybody respects everything you have done and we look forward to the next great improvement in our lives. ed, i have watched you as a protem mayor and you said you weren't going to run and we got over that one. you have done a great job in this city and i think if there is another city in the united states that i would consider living in, which i'm not doing, but if i did, it would be san francisco. there is a culture here and an excitement and diversity that is everything that america stands for and you've done a great job. i did hear, jack, that you were thinking about running for mayor? >> that could be interesting if you think about it, 148 campaign speeches, 6 second campaign videos and your big pledge that everyone can pay their taxes using square. [ applause ] [ laughter ] >> i think i speak for the mayor, both of us are happy we don't have to run again. truthfully we are thrilled that twitter and square are growing in new york city as well as in san francisco and cit

so we have to have a workable system. i think we've pretty much reesmed a consensus on how to get there technically. >> i would just add that the technology factor is not just one answer. d you've got people stanford university had their graduation two weekend ago. half of the people getting their phd in computer science were foreign students. they're going to go out and create companies and create tremendous -- you look at those and say how much wealth is going to be created by that group. we want that wealth to be created here. so we -- for that group and others like them, you want to give them startup visas, make sure that they have an easy way path forward to become americans if they want to do that. we also have i think the answer is more to legal permanent residents than these temporary visas, which is what the h 1 b program is. but it needs reform. and i'll give you an example. sometimes we hear from engineers that the h 1 b program allows for engineers to undercut the wages of american workers. it's important to l

well, they have to be found due and owing. they have to have been assessed by the i.r.s. you don't have taxes assessed by the i.r.s. if, as is often the case for someone who has been working here illegally, you're working off the books. this is what we call an illusory promise. they offered us the sleeves off of their vest. they offered us something that didn't exist in the first place. we were also told a number of other things about this bill. we were told that there would be a lot of people who would be excluded, and yet we discovered that there are a lot of people who even after having committed crimes in this country, even after having illegally re-entered the country following a previous deportation, which by the way is a felony, many of those people will still be able to get legalized and not just remain in this country and continue working, but also continue on the pathway to citizenship and eventually become voting citizens of this country. we were told that those people who were illegal aliens currently, who would be eligible for legalization and eventual citize

you don't want to have them stuck there and have no way of getting out.unication before the disaster that really is critical.hi taking another course on cpr, is that good idea for everybody? >> of course you wanted to be cpr and first aid certified. i talk to people who have said they watched somebody go through heart attack or they've been injured. that is the time when they thought, i so regret not knowing what to do. what am i supposed to do. do i breathe in their mouth, i don't know what to do. that is horrible feeling. do something good. go out and get first aid certified. >> this is not expensive. getting certified is not that expensive. >> i'm sure you have toilet paper at home. >> most people do. >> and certain indication, in some cases it is free -- certification, call the red cross and talk to your employer and maybe you can get program. we actually give these things out. in september, these are given away for free, thousands of them >> cheryl: safety kits? >> we have them at capitol and bay area with the red cross. in september preparedness mon

you have done a hell of a job. thank you for everything what you have done. you have made this country what it is. [ applause ] i think we'll take some on topic questions for the mayors. >> how do the summit expand engineers about the summit? >> people will go where they think there is a challenge and if companies want to be where the people they can employ, where they want to live. both of us have the responsibility of making it exciting cities but then you have companies that will come. once you get the momentum behind you, it's easy to do it. any meeting like we are having gets the best and brightest and when they come, they get publicity and ideas that they want to use. >> i think the exciting part is to identify the role of technology that everybody is not familiar with. we know that technology in businesses is valuable, but we are talking about the other jobs that technology sustains and that means how does it affect our tourism, health care, education, those areas. i think every city is going to have their ears open very widely and even send reps to ga

we have all the music going, the generally have a good time. whether it is awkward camp or junior guard. >> from more information, visit >> hello. and welcome to "need your district supervisor -- meet your district supervisor." supervisors campos is our supervisor for this week. welcome. thank you for joining us today. tell us about your background. where you grew up, went to school? >> sure. i was born in guatemala. i was brought here by my parents. i grew up in l.a., and then moved up to the bay area, and i went to stanford. i came back after law school. my background for the first few years was as a practicing attorney. i worked in the private sector for a number of years. and then i worked for the city as a deputy city attorney and then became general counsel of the school district of san francisco and through that became involved in politics and at some point decided to run for office. >> you have lived in san francisco for awhile. why did you decide to live here? supervisor campos: i have always felt that san francisco is unique. i have a

have you paid yours? >> i have paid my fair share. most of the reason my taxes alone, just the mortgage deduction. as a way in which my rate goes down. in fact, mr. gomez says that he put the mortgage interest deduction on the table to be cut i think that is just a huge mistake. millions of americans, over 1 million in massachusetts alone benefit from the mortgage interest deduction. that is the way that most americans are able to afford a home, able to protect their family coming able to move up along in our society, and i disagree. consider appealing or reducing the mortgage interest deduction for home owners are state. >> this is about as hot. yellow or red in your system but you love people that make more money than you to pay irate the new. if you really do believe in the rule that he should be willing to pay a higher rate in your assistance. this sounds like you believe he paid a fair rate. i think we should have a fair tax system. the more you make the more you should have to pay off. melson think we need to have a comprehensiv

many reasons to have cameras. if a business wants to install their cameras and use them, they should bear that cost. if footage exist that law enforcement wants access to, there is a process that allows the law enforcement access to that. so, if a business wants to install cameras, absolutely they should bear the cost, but having law enforcement require cameras, that cost should not be passed onto the business. >> i have very mixed feelings about cameras but i tend to lean to what berry is talking about. we seem to be karening willie and nilly to this camera side. we are crossing the line now between reasonable, video surveillance in public being a reasonable part of the policing or police action and you get into the unreasonable police infringement of the 4th amendment. let me read you one of these conditions so you can see what i'm talking about. i have probably seen 20 of these in the last few years. if you have a conditional license and pretty much everybody does in san francisco, you can petition the abc to g

and we have issues, we have had a few problems, but in recent years we have resolved a lot of 'em and we have had a good collaboration with [inaudible] community center and they helped us in a lot of incidents. i could see for myself, since barbara have come aboard -- she's doing a wonderful job and i appreciate what she's doing because she's putting forth effort that the residents can see. she can't do everything overnight, but she is doing things and i can see us moving ahead, things moved forward in a positive respect. so if the residents would give her the opportunity, i'm sure she will succeed and be a good director. that's what i have to say. thank you. >> thank you. let me read a couple more names. jazzy collins, leon, karen. next speaker. >> i'm amber and i work at the [inaudible] neighborhood center and one of the things i do every month is work with public housing working group and we work with two developments in our neighborhood. i think having that platform to be as a liaison between the residents and the resources that should be available to them through the housing auth

fresh food and you have to preserve that and i know that we have an ice chest. >> having an ice chestn hand is really important because your refrigerator will not be working right away. it is important to have somebody else that can store cold foods so something that you might be able to take with you if you have to leave your home. >> and here, this is my very own personal emergency supply box for my house. >> i hope that you have an alternative one at home. >> oh, i forgot. >> and in this is really important, you should have flashlights that have batteries, fresh batteries or hand crank flashlight. >> i have them right here. >> good. excellent. that is great. additionally, you are going to want to have candles a whistle, possibly a compass as well. markers if you want to label things if you need to, to people that you are safe in your home or that you have left your home. >> i am okay and i will meet you at... >> exactly. exactly. water proof matches are a great thing to have as well. >> we have matches here. and my spare glasses. >> and your spare glasses. >> if you have medication

all of the chances i have had have been incredible chance is to serve and i'm incredibly honored to have this one. i'm incredibly honored and thankfully i have my family support. [inaudible] >> it's usually like 3000 bills introduced in every session. this is one of them that will be on the sheet as well. secondly again let me be really clear. i understand i was confronted with a set of imperfect choices but i don't believe that deciding on the leading people select the senator is in as possible and get them to washington as soon as possible is something that should be discounted. what we are talking about is maybe, maybe an additional $12 million in costs because as i said on monday some of this is being misinterpreted. i was going to insist on a primary no matter what. that was nonnegotiable with me. i was not going to have state party insiders of either party selecting the candidate to go on the ballot for the united states senate so we were going to have to have a primary no matter what and given the fact senator lautenberg's death came within one day of our primary there is no way t

, we may have been. >> you have folks to help you out -- i would agree. >> but not have the aclj. silenced but there is a fist and a hand over our mouths. to educational opportunities everything from creating brochures and pamphlets on the constitution to buying such things as bookmarks that educate people about the constitution, the has been limited to post cards and getting information. that has been constricted because we simply don't have the funds. >> thank you. >> my nature is not to be silenced by any thing but the main comment i get is thank you for standing up for us. you must be very brave. i don't think it is great, i- citizenship duties that we stand up every chance we get. >> i feel if we don't speak up now, that time may be lost. i am doing my best to speak up. without the aclj and the knowledge of the other groups, i don't know what would have happened. a time when i was ready to say forget this whole thing. it is very chilling >> time is running out. your first amendment rights are being violated here. not it is or chilling, there is even evidence today. on of the

we have to do around construction and we have to test where the leaks are and we have to find out where the neighbors where the low and high end is. we have been doing test in the neighbors houses. >> have you got paperwork of these sound test. single family >> i have it in my brief. >> was the work applied to do the work? >> there was no permit required for soundboard. >> looking at the different petitions which i gather that you are satisfied with paying the citations. what is the issue with the other ones? >> i was paying for citations that i didn't even know that we had. >> you have no particular objection to the position laid on you? >> the overall objection i have already safe -- satisfied that we have not addressed the sound issue. we always had a phone line. i have no idea where that came from. >> okay. thank you. >> i have to say that we aren encouraged that this is going in such a positive direction and it sounds like the strides that mr. perkins has made in the last month is what the entertainment commission was hoping for in the last two years. we did get a check along with

they have families too. i am not here to plead against the deploying of muni service particularly on adex 30 and 45 bus lins, director ruskin here has commented about the situation of the muni's budget and the examiner, and i think we have taken a careful look at how we're spending money on our infrastructure and for public transportation as the city grows. is difficult to sit here and ask, there are a lot of great ideas, desperate, draconian cuts our school system is suffering, we have a huge budget deficit out there, we add to that, the deficit, 470 million, does not include deficit of the central subway, the projected deficit of 400 million dollars of the time the construction is done. somewhere we have to give something up. one of the things we are proposing is to eliminate the extension to north beach for the time being. it is not necessary. you have no plans to put something in there. you'll save 70 million dollars and have heard a lot of pleas appear about how that money could be better used. somethin

having said that, we have a huge bureaucracy. we have 26,000 employees and they need training. we have systems in place that have been very protective between departments and so they built barriers, so what they got their funding to investment in their systems, they didn't necessarily share in that. because other departments were on different budgeting and so forth. so we created over a long period of history of government evolvement in san francisco very thick walls that need to be broken down. board president david chiu and i are working very hard to instill in our department of technology an information service a collaboration amongst all the different it sections whether it's the airport or muni or dpw or 311, and we have got to make the connections. we have one email system and we're going to perfect that. we just hired a new director of the department of technology. he is coming from the private sector. and i stress that very importantly, because the private sector has got a lot of this down and government is catching up. so we have got the elements and the commitment wit

i have watched you over the years. i have watched the fbi do their job. in many ways, people don't even know about it. it is a thankless job in many ways. you have given almost 12 years of your life to this type of work. i want to personally tell you how much i personally appreciate you and the fbi and those who have served over the years. i wish you the very best when you do hang it up here. i think all of us -- i just think that you are truthful. and i won't take any more time. but i just wanted to make sure that i let you know just how deeply i feel towards you and those in the fbi who have been doing such a great job. >> thank you very much, senator. i have been very lucky and fortunate to have the opportunity to do this job. i have loved and enjoyed it. i thank you for the comment. >> you have done a great job. >> thank you very much, senator hatch. senator klobuchar is next. i do not see her. senator franken, he is not here. senator sessions? .. i want to join in my comments in that regard. there are so many things that are happening now, i think th

we will have you guys line up; we will have you guys go to the questions, will have the discussion and get to the next question and get to as many of those as we can't with the goal of at least getting to 15-20 questions. after that, we will hear about the budget hearing process from supervisor farrell; and then we'll have closing remarks. let's hear from our budget director. >> hi everybody i am kate howard, the mayor's budget director. want to give you a brief overview but before i do that i want to make sure you know who is up here listening to you. i'm going to start from the back, representative from san francisco unified school district. i am now going to say the departments. aging and adult services, the fire department, police department, mayor's of as a disability, public works, mta, recreation and park, human services, department of health support services, building inspection, the office of small business, the office of economic and workforce development. the health department. the housing authority. the san francisco pub. library. starting at the far end, juvenile probation

that you have. and, so, that's going to continue to be a problem. and it's always about the decisions, what you can do and what you can't. and while it's understandable, as long as they're abating the graffiti, and i understand it doesn't look nice to have a sidewalk painted, but my reference would be tell them about the other products that are out there. and i'm not -- not all of the tags require a power washer to take it off. >> i'm going to speak as a property owner. >> go for it. >> i live in alameda. this was not graffiti, this was trees, replanting trees, they want to put a tree, who is responsible for that, sidewalks and everything. one thing they did do is they offered referrals for contractors, not just materials, but, you know, people who could do the trees or who could do the sidewalk repairs or what have you. so, that might be another option for different municipalities that help theirs. but that helped get her done. >> [speaker not understood]. >> go ahead. >> [speaker not understood].

it would have an impact over quality-of-life issues that vulnerable populations have to contend with. -- we have a formula for treatment and capacity issues. we want to advise the city representatives to preserve the existing resources and not move forward with the proposed five percent cut as they would in fact the most vulnerable communities.thank you. apl (applause)>> moderator: jesus just bought us a minute. i want to point out christina, director of neighborhood services; she is collecting question cards. look out for the pink blaser. next up is rachel ibarra - executive director of -- community center. apl (applause)>> my name is rachel ibarra, good morning everyone, supervisors, department heads. i am the executive director of bernal heights neighborhood center; for the surrounding areas and bernal heights. i want to focus on leveraging and successful transitions. as an organization that provides multiple programs and services, and one whose members reflect the communities that we serve, providing linguistically and culturally responsible programs and services i applaud our sta

have been doing and we have been talking to them and the union about that. because it's really critical, especially if you are in the rush hour, especially when you have trains so close together, train two minutes behind or even closer and the trunk of the subway, that if you have to wait for a mechanic, and we have got a limited number. so it's really about us working as a team, and leveraging the people and the resources that we have out there. and in some cases, it's stretching people out of what they have historically done or out of their comfort zone, but it's not something that is beyond their capabilities and we're confident we can work through issues with that. >> i strongly urge that and i'm not sure if that requires cba changes and levels of that, but really, the operator is the front line for muni there and if there is anything that we can do to make the operator not only an operator, but a problem-solver, the way a pilot or a bus driver or somebody else would be, i think that will really speed it up. the time thing, there was some mention of mayb

we have to have a global settlement. we have to have an opportunity for governments to discuss this as far as china and europe. my administrations is that the administration is gauged now with the party, with china, with europe to the goal of forging an agreement that would end the retaliatory chinese cases and level the playing field for america's producers. my understanding is that you support those efforts, and you are one of the leaders in those discussions. can you just share your vies on this? >> thank you, senator. thank you for your leadership on this important issue. it is a critically important issue. it brings together both the importance of enforcing our trade laws effectively, the importance of seeing the further development of clean energy, and the importance of leveling the playingfield so so we can participate in the growing market. it's one of the reasons we have been active over the last few years in bringing cases related to clean energy. we brought out a case of the wto against india's localization po

we have master resource catalogs designed just like fire scope and cal fire in which we have built strike teams from our utilities, strike teams from water companies. they simply make a call and tell us we need 10, 12, 15, it's our obligation to put that together and get it to them. they are worried about the incident in their jurisdiction which they have to correct. it's our responsibility to reach bond those borders as their extension to bring in the reserves that they need to maintain that kaupblt newt of operation and then where we function through the state utility operations center and the state operations center to make sure that we have that kind of access and that kind of assistance. we need caltrans, we're going to need chp, we're going to need cal fire, we need dwr, they are invested in restoring their critical infrastructure and it's our responsibility to reach across those lines to get that kind of access to keep that kind of restoration underway. >> thank you. mr. brig. >> in terms of establishing standards for resill yepbs, absolutely, we have done that. again as i mentione

we have to have sufficient numbers of correctional officers to ensure that we have adequate numbers of people who can be deployed, not only to maintain order, but to protect their fellow officers. i'm confident at this level that we have a sufficient amount of money to bring on that additional capacity and the additional officers. >> that is heartening to hear because we have legal and ethical standards in the care of prisoners. of the population of 224,000 prisoners, how many of those are repeat offenders and the recidivism rate? >> the recidivism rates runs at about between 25% and 40%, slightly lower in the federal system than in the state system. one of the things we need to do is focus resources on reentry programs and rehabilitation programs while we have people in prisons so we make more effective our efforts at reducing that recidivism rate. >> you have a lot on your plate, and now we are going to have the immigration bill, and we will have to implement. i want to come back to this because i want to keep america's streets safe. at the same time, the administration of justice is

in terms of preparedness, we have emergency pipe yards, we have emergency stand by facilities, we have vendors who are on emergency stand by so those facilities, the material we might need, we have plenty of it and it's stored throughout the entire service territory. we have 3 major services, supply service chains, that are open and available to us 24/7 if we need them. we also have contractor arrangements, maybe it's pipeline welding or electrical service work, line man work, and we also have mutual service agreements and pg&e participates in those. we have sent folks to hawaii and we have sent folks back east and we have certainly sent folks to oregon and washington and idaho on a regular basis as we all in the west suffered through storms. so we have those activities in place and then of course we do just our normal emergency response activations on an on-going basis just to make sure everyone is trained and veilable and ready to go. in terms of the big 1 that we always talk about, we have an earthquake play book. the gas side and electric side has very specific actions to take, we

we can have a huge impact. i am in paris by what you are doing and what else the wood-i am encouraged by what you are -- i am encouraged by what you are doing. >> i should have looked into that history before i agreed to come. .> senator mccaskill >> bear with me as i get into the weeds in one of my favorite subjects. maybe my focus on this will give you the ability to move mountains with regards to gsa. no fewer thanwas nine agencies containing information relevant to government contracting. the subcommittee that i worked on at the time did some work around this issue. the federal databases and how worthless they were at getting act the idea that there should the single portal -- at idea that there should be a single portal where someone can get the information necessary about problem contractors, about cost, price, scope, all of the things we duplicate over and over again many different ways, many different times. at the time, i expressed great concerns about how well this would go, that it was a massive unde

we have been doing that, so have a number of our allies. we can say with certainty that we are aware of where every chemical munitions is in the country, this is something we did lot of attention and resources to end we feel like we have a sense of both the fact that the regime controlling these chemical weapons in some sense of where they are generally. in terms of securing them, this is something that would be a priority for the united states particularly in opposed assad scenario. in the current environment they wouldn't remain under regime control and there's a very active conflict in syria but when we look at the issues that were the results that we want the international community to be focused on syria if we can reach a resolution or get to a post assad sea area you can see intense focus from the u.s. on making sure steps are being taken to secure these chemical weapons stockpiles and this is something the international community can do. one example of that was in libya. there were chemical weapons stockpiles, not merely of the scale

your promoter should have a contract. you should have references. they should have insurance naming you as an additional insured >> canned think of minimal that's my motion. >> if i could i'd like to second that and add a friendly amendment. >> go for it. >> that they do have a binder at the - in the venue. there we go. that they have is a binder and they continue to work with the officers exactly to what they want to see in the binder. with your desires as well >> accepted. >> what about vices how about the sound level other than they're doing it themselves. i mean do you feel comfortable letting them do it themselves >> i believe i do. at this point but i believe it now. i can turn it over to inspector who did the sound like reading. they've come a long way. though i'm comfortable letting you - i agree with lieutenant night we'll continue to monitor them. we'll continue to spot check and surprise inspect them >> i want to say that their permit should be readily available at all times. part of your prirt permit is your conditions they have to be to

i have shown you the work that i have done that i have been screened for. >> go ahead and put it on the overhead. >> i worked with feathers my entire life. i actually went out yesterday to take a tape measure and mark off a space. my stand is 6 feet. i was in an 8 foot space. but there is this -- daniel assaulted me and i wasn't able to complete my task. i was out there and did my work. the few times he was constantly calling the police. he called them down and he told the police he had a restraining order and asked him to produce it and he didn't have it. they said to document everything which i have done. you have seen police reports in the file. these are events that did not take place. what can i say? this is how i make a living. i did not do the things i'm charged with and i don't see any evidence against me. what i see is selective prosecution. people vouching for each other. >> thank you mr. lazar? >> well, commissioners she mentioned that she's now identified in the photos those pictures. that is her, that is the back of her. john can testify that that was her. he saw her. secon

for each listing we have contact info, we have photos and we have more information. this is a brand-new program. we're really excited about it. we have gotten a lot of positive feedback from brokers, from small business owners and entrepreneurs who are looking for space. and so again, that is part of baseline services. we're trying to is deploy that in all 25 invest in neighborhoods corridors. we have a mini grant program, making small grants to neighborhood-based groups to implement neighborhood improvement projects. we have new loan products and we have community capacity-building projects. with training and workshops for neighborhood advocates, a merchant association leader who really wants to make a change in their neighborhood. i could give you an hour just on this one slide, but i'm not going to. i'm going to keep moving. that is "baseline services." so we're trying to get those is deployed to all of these 25 neighborhoods. the next element is "commercial district assessment." so the planning department and our office partnered and conducted a great deal of res

we have to have a plan. in terms of voting for democratic party, once again i am not asking for loyalty. if there should be interested, public education is extremely important to african americans. it has been the republican parting that has wanted to cut public education. with all respect the republican party suggested that the department of education be disbanded. you mentioned ronald reagan several times. ronald reagan would not be the party candidate in this republican party. ronald reagan wanted tax reform when he was president of the united states. i have seen him ask -- he had asked that the wealthiest in our society should pay their fair share in taxes. if he had given that same speech at the republican convention he would have been round-booed. you have to be careful when bringing up ronald reagan in this at pastor today. you are 100% right, the congressional black caucus is constantly on the president of the united states. the president of the net states understands that, from what i know. he hears

is required to have a black box device. most cars have them now. the current use is what triggers the airbag system. it senses when you have a crush. the problem is, under current rules, there is no limitations of information that goes into the device. if you have an accident, the police, the insurance company, anyone can pull this device out ,ho knows what they are doing they could pull the device and know how fast you were going, with your ciba was on. whether you apply the brakes. it does not bother me because is a safety feature. most people do not know these device are in their cars. you do not have a choice of turning them off. there is no limitation of who has the information. there is nothing in the law that developedt could be here. right now, it is a few seconds before a potential accident. it is nothing that said they cannot decide to maintain every ounce of information from every minute you are driving. all this does is notify consumers and allow them an option out. and identifies who owes the information. when you buy a car, it is your

have those cases come to you? >> some of them have. of course reading, having the interaction with tom as a legislator, we're good friends and he has spearheaded taking the personal from the families' perspective and his own experiences and targeted it toward legislation. there's far too much of it. part of the training, the law that was passed talks about school personnel reporting but doesn't cover volunteers. how do we reach out to make sure the campus volunteers are also trained? how do we have the victims find a way to be brave enough to report it, that they are being bullied and to talk to some trusted adult about that. >> and see those things don't cost money. one gets very artful, as the former senator knows, when you good out before appropriations, the committee where everything dies. because there's a price tag, i feel like minnie pearl that i have a little price tag on the bill. we did informal surveys and found a lot of schools had programs. these things are mostly codifying something or alerting the principal and in that w

don't have a (inaudible) and i have friends that do and they have been following this discussion. i also serve on the city commission and i hate to be in your position because you are asked to look at completing interest and how to balance that interest. i just want to (inaudible) because i see myself in your shoes and the way that you need to balance all of the interests. but it is not... black and white issue and you look at economic impact. i run a very, very small microlaw business and (inaudible) and so i understand that we need to come and be (inaudible) by the impact and i don't want to be impacted either. however, in this instance, i really want to encourage you to look at all of the bases you can because it is not a black and white case, you mean that you balance and everything has an impact and every project has an impact but it is your job to look at what the impact is. you have the experience and you can look at economic data. i wish that you would like at the data that can be gathered to show you whether it is really detrimental and how has the pet supply business in

so, we have 100 years of data. 30 or 40 years we have equalization. we have had 30 years that we've had the opposite. so we can look at the impact of the two period on the economic performance. and the evidence is is the latter model capitalism that has been less successful on every major indicator of economic performance compared with a post war era so we have had slower growth since the 1980's and lower productivity and lower levels of business investment and we have had high levels of unemployment than the relative stability that we had in the 1950's and 60's. so come on a cost-benefit analysis, you know, the period of the unequal capitalism has basically coming you know, is the need a failure. so the experiment has not worked. >> host: who pushed the experiment in the two countries? >> guest: the experiment -- the idea that you should have free markets and less state regulation and as a part of that you should allow the rewards of the top and a bigger concentration of wealth that the top that really came out of a small group of new right thinkers

we have to, as adults, you have to let go. you have to listen. you have to empower. i'm a big believer in having students have peer juries. empower kids to figure those things out, hold each other accountable and build that kind of culture. and when students are invested there, students are helping to shape their schools, they're going take care of their schools in a very different way. >> you mentioned chicago. the mayor is trying to get his arms around it, but there's a huge parent and teacher uproar over closing schools that the district has decided are not needed, that are underutilized. union now going to court. how do you deal with that evolution in a place like chicago? >> it's been very, very tough. obviously that's where my entire upbringing was there, and it's been from a distance, hard to watch. i have friends on all sides of the debate. what i will say, andrea, there's no educator i know that wakes up in the morning and wants to close schools. when you close schools, there's no upside. kids lose. communities lose. teachers lose. what's the counterexample?
