interesting article by christina hoff summers. i think she was at harvard one time, she asked this question, piers. i want to get your response. she says, why killers like columbine and newtown shooters do what they do is as mysterious as the problem with evil in general. she said there are hard questions that hasn't been answered. why now? that's what she asks. why us? americans have always had easy access to guns, piers, but until fairly recently, no one thought to go to a school to slaughter first graders. why is it we seem to have created a society where those evil people feel empowered to act? what's going on? >> i think it's -- i think it's an accumulation of things. i think the fact that you can buy these very high-powered assault weapons now as easy as you can buy a packet of crisps in a supermarket and find it startling that america bands me from buying six packets of sudafed, but i can buy a weapon and load it with magazines to kill 100 people in a minute. i find that staggering. that is what has escalated. the power and

on december 7, 1941, something terrible happened in hawaiile three weeks later the government hoff the united states declared that all japanese americans, citizens born in the united states or of japanese ancestry were to be considered enemy aliens, at a result, like these undocumented people, they could not put on the uniform of this lan. senator inouye went on to say, i was 17 at the time and naturally i resented this because i loved my country and wanted to put on the uniform to show where my heart stood. but we were denied. so we petitioned the government. the a year later they said, okay. i if you wish to volunteer, go ahead. senator inouye said, well to make a long story short, the rem meant i serve in, made up of 0 japanese americans had the highest casualsed in europe and the most tech crated in the history of the ute. then he turned and said i think the beneficiaries of the senator from illinois and the dream act will do the same. it was the type of short statement which captured in a few words his life, his sacrifice, what he had proven, by risking his life for this country.

>> joining us now from wash washing, "new york times" reporter in her recent titled "with a parent hoff at war," elizabeth looked at how the war in afghanistan is hitting families in ft. campbell, kentucky, especially hard. she wrote, in part, "as president obama considers how quickly to withdraw the remaining 66,000 american troops from afghanistan, the parents of fort campbell students are still going off to war. fort campbell high school, which has about 700 students and is open to any 9th to 12th grader who lives on the 100,000-acre post along the kentucky-tennessee border, is, by definition, physically and psychologically cut off from the world outside the gates. the students readily call their school a bubble, both comforting and claustrophobic because of the dangers their parents face. if you went to off-post schools, you couldn't exactly talk to a teenager because they wouldn't understand what you're going through, said larissa massie, a 17-year-old senior whose father is home but has had two deployments to iraq." elizabeth, one other paragraph -- the whole piece jumped off the

so i think there is a lot hoff interest in general. but what the private sector has seen multiple times before are project that is are still very much in the conceptual stage and are concerned about spending significant dollars today until there is more clarity on the projects because they cost a lot of money to have consultants and others to analyze it. and that's why i mentioned political will in my testimony, not that on both sides of the house there is clearly support for projects like this, but there is a lot of details that need to be dealt with in terms of what the actual economics may be. then once those are determined then i think there will be a lot of interest from the private sector. >> i'm looking at page six of your testimony, you say that contribution equity contribution from private investors tend to be approximately 10 to 15% of the total project cost given its cost of capital. does that sound like it would be sufficient for who wanted to be the private partner in the northeast corridor? >> i think that's a question fo
