we have a unique situation in san francisco because we are water locked or landlocked. it is a lot more difficult than counties that have land or the county needs could be reached by construction, even in the unincorporated areas. one other interesting thing i came across, which is not part of your report, but from another source the shows a correlation between the percentage of single-family homes in a particular city and the percentage of households with children. in san francisco, we have 32 to 33% single-family homes. we have about 18% of households with children. in the city of san jose, they have 58% single-family homes. 43% of the households are households with children. you cannot compare apples and oranges, but it would appear that for every is possible, there seems to be a desire that they would prefer to have a single family situation rather than being in a multiple situation. that may not be possible in san francisco. anything we can do to move towards that direction i can to promote the retention or the attraction of more families. it is an interesting thin

i described afghanistan as a country that's landlocked, had a civil war, was occupied, was poor, illiterate, tribal. and what have they done? since 2001. they've placed in power karzai. not because he was strong but because he didn't have his own militia, largely. the other warlords said, gee, at the loya jirga, the meeting to decide this, let's make him the temporary one. it's easier than making one of the more powerful warlords the temporary leader of the country. so then they fashioned a constitution. and then they vote on the constitution. and then people who'd left afghanistan a decade, two decades earlier start coming back. over a million refugees returned to that country. problem was you look around where there's a piece of construction going on and what's happening is most of the people working there aren't afghans because they're not literate. they don't know how. they don't have people who are trained electricians and trained pipe fiters and trained to do these things. so they've got a difficult situation. they've got a whole generation of women who weren't allowed to go to school
