this links directly to a program through the aspen institute, the microtrack or. just one example, one example is the city of seattle is partnering with state borders and community-based organizations to offer microenterprise training. specifically to immigrant micro enterprises in the community. they've had a lot of success through their six-week business development program and trainings, and what they are finding is that these programs actually are having success. they are making an impact. the survival rate of the businesses that go through this program are much higher than the national average. the only way they're able to justify that and understand that is through the use of the specific program that their parting with the aspen institute to implement. that allows them to click the data on the performance and have a contact with the micro enterprises to be able to assess the impact of the program and funding itself is making in the committee spent part of that is understanding the clear guideline, one of the ways they get measured. >> absolutely. that progr

-- by the aspen institute and washington -- atlantic magazine. i am always thrilled to hear from anybody in congress who is getting anything done. we just got off of a conference call with the white house where they were announcing the enrollment numbers for the affordable care act. 26,000 people signed up through the federal exchanges. as someone who has been putting forward alternatives, i wonder what your reaction is today. there are people totally opposed and want to repeal it. i was not here when it was passed. ofthat time, i was chairman the national governor's association. john and i worked together. i am a democrat from west virginia. i think we can do better as a nation than half people facing -- they are one illness away from being bankrupt. defectn was born with a or they have a serious illness and now because of a pre- existing condition, a are uninsurable. there are so many good things we can agree on, but then people who want to repeal say, we cannot even agree on what time of day it is anymore. you think we can fix a few things. wh

he is a member of the aspen strategy group. i will ask a few questions and open it up to the audience. we are in a transitional period for american defense strategy. are there questions? a building down we talked about of the pentagon. are there lessons in earlier periods in american history that could guide us now? i guess i should -- why don't you both answer that question. >> good afternoon. it is wonderful to see so many familiar faces around the table. i do think there are some lessons to be learned from our history in terms of periods like this where we are coming out of a period of war a decade more than a decade of war and we are facing very severe budget pressures on this type of budget. there are two lessons that come to mind. the first is a strategic lesson and when america comes out of the period of war we typically are very tempted to turn inward, allow the isolationist impulse collapse that have come and gone throughout our history to assert themselves quite powerful. when on lookout at the world with fundamental c

he is the president and ceo of the aspen institute. ned he's the author of the best-selling book steve jobs. and walter, we are dying to hear your thoughts on obama care. we've been talking about this a lot this morning. trying to figure out where we are in the situation. you're a big thinker. where do you think things stand at this point? >> well, i love the conversation between joe and governor markell. because in some ways both are right. this is an absolute disaster when it comes to showing can government do something big? we watch airlines merge and private industries and they're trying to get reservation systems right and takes three or four months of a bad flying summer. this one was difficult. but i do think and i know you'll push back on me that it is a problem the way things were before. two things, the fee for service which y'all talked about but also kids in their 20s. kids my daughter's age, they want to join start-ups, they want to be independent. employee, you know, health care is really something we have to get away from

the washington ideas forum is hosted pi the museum, the aspen institute and the atlantic. up next, the discussion on the future of museums. >>> thanks very much. i'm here with a man whose work i deeply admire, a man who's taken some brave and difficult and controversial stances on some of the most difficult issues that face art museums in the country today. so, let's launch into the first question. and the first big story that's out there, everybody's talking about it. it's the case of a trove of art that's been found in an apartment in munich. apparently it's been sitting there for decades, likely acquired during the nazi era, maybe under some very unfortunate conditions in which people may have been required to sell art under duress or simply had it for fitted. given your position, do you have any knowledge, privy in this fascinating story? >> no, i only know what i've read and probably everybody's read in the newspaper. it's a little confusing because we don't know very much. there's interesting questions about it, i think. one of the -- as you all know, this is the son

relations have flaws but what does the say joining us now a scroll free golf program officer at the aspen institute for policy studies. this year and they spend it on. so karl what do you or recent opinion polls show on the current state of korea japan relations of course a briskly across the border chose the korea japan relations are very bad. so when we look to favor ability reading which we tracked fairly often right now korea is almost or japan or other is almost as popular as north korea and the fever ability reasons that really says something about just how alone japan some can but that's not to say that that the south koreans do not want to see an improvement in relations. in fact a wide majority supports an improvement in relations and a clear majority supports a summit between aachen and prime minister ahmed said the supports a site that impact in our bed then what's stopping them. why think it's really risk both domestic and international if you look them up and industries in the proven so far to the very risk averse and when you separate out for approval ratings which are now i

peninsula the brain doctors to temple and director of the sun knew their policy and technology center at the aspen institute for policy studies of them to proper thing to do so having so dr shin how do you think the north korean leadership responded to the latest iran nuclear deal why should an austrian leave this might not be affected by the us and eu because they make the very nature of the nuclear crisis from your friend in north korea are quite different with each other. so north korea always considered nuclear weapons test the safety device. for its pristine survivors. so he will not might mean give up nuclear weapons programs in the moma. it seems that the us is in a position to focus more on that north korea issue. could this move things along the long stalled the diplomatic procedures but that number. for the time being i don't think so because split at the moment as you already know the agreement between the five minus one in your brown. just last frost just six points to this camp every decision. so in order to get to the comprehensive solutions. i mean lowering the communique will be mo

and the work that the aspen institute has done and the field has done at the aspen institute is so importantecause it is hoping to show that there are mechanisms that we can support micro enterprises as they grow and ask connie says to me all the time -- you will hear from her in a little bit of -- one and three is the tagline that she talks about. so if one of three -- and i'm going to mangle this, but if one out of every 3 microamps reprises in the country are employed, one additional person would be in full employment. it's important for us as a nation come in particularly those of us that work on policy to think about ways that we can support growth of micro- enterprises, because that will help us get to a place where we as a country are more competitive and we can get the communities more stable and growing. as you all know, the president has spent a lot of time focusing on ways to support small businesses. he has passed a lot of legislation with the help of congress. he's implemented new programs and it's because we recognize that micro-business is basically account for 26 million u.s.
