the city that's why the 14 residents is so important to be include on this site but being in an urban city and connecting that to housing. we've got some great advise being given to us on fourth and folsom and again city is leading the way and that's what chinatown is seeing that's what we're doing south of market with supervisor kim and we're doing that with the brt having conversations about the stops and in the different communities. well, i like those conversations bogging base we're all trying to get intoefsh the success of this city. we shouldn't have winners and losers in this city. that's why this site is important because it's complicated and we like the complicates. bay 26 percent of the contractor on this are local people already being hired 60 percent minorities so the contractors as subcontractors are also incriminating the city while their building this wonderful project. we're going to have businesses on the waterfront they're going to be welcomed with retail space and they'll have some needed open space for everybody to ask enjoy. we had this vision to get the site under ou

it is not happenstance that urban cities, where poor black and brown people live, and are segregated by zoning laws, and housing patternerns, transportation infrastructure. this is not all happenstance. this happened on purpose, so when we look at -- >> so it's acceptable. is that what you're saying? >> i'm not saying that it's acceptable. i'm saying that we need to pay attention to why it's there, hyacinth. and quit trying to pretend that we live somewhere else. >> elizabeth, are you saying that this is intentional marginalization, as if it's intentional segregation? >> if i could say something, yes, it is intentional segregation. for example, through most of the 20th century, the federal housing administration funded suburban development with the explicit condition that no homes be sold to african-americans. >> bingo. >> public housing authorities in the federal and the state governments, purposely placed hawsing for low-income people to be concentrated in one place. this was it certainly purposeful. the whole history of how the federal and the state governments created racial segr

we gravitate to urban cities and dream about traveling the world not necessarily about buying that firsts in our 20s. sorry, mom and dad. imagine this. this is crazy. by 2060 there will be as many people over the age of 85 as there are under the age of 5. that's an enormous swing from where we are today. all of this shows the unsustainability of our current entitlement programs. this is infuriating because none of our elected officials seem to care. take president obama's latest budget. no mention of entitlement reform, none, and it's not as if the facts are a secret. i will break this down simply. social security and medicare represent about half of all the money the government spends each year. half. as we all live longer paying for these programs becomes more unsustainable. when social security was originally created back in 1935 the average life expectancy was 62 years for women and 58 years for men. today the average life is more than 80 for women and 76 for men. while we're living almost two decades longer we haven't made any real changes. the same goes for medicare. this is basic

there was a big push for urbanization, making cities like beijing even bigger. the gridlock is going to get worse. >> now mongolia is one of the world's fastest-growing economies, and that brought a wave of cars to the streets. we look at what that means and the problems it brings. built forinitially half a million people. it is now home to more than a million people, many of whom have little choice but to drive. the extreme winter weather and long distances make walking and unattractive option. the city has no subway, so public transport is limited to buses. the number of cars in the city has doubled over the past three years to 320 thousand. that growth far outpaces the expansion of the road network, which has increased by just one percent on average per year over the past four. authorities recognize traffic is a problem and have taken efforts to tackle the issue. initiated a license plate policy to restrict cars on the road. cars are banned from the road on specific days of the week depending on the last numbers of the license plate. the nine means they canno

it doesn't necessarily mean cities, but urbanized areas where they can walk to stores, easy access to transit. sometimes it means citieser and sometimes it's the suburban areas that feel like the city. but it changes property values and the way we're going to living and working. >> what else is on the run down? >> we're going to talk about general motors more, and i have a water witch on my show. >> see, i said in the last show if this woman that was featured in this piece, if she finds water she's going to be a reality television star in no time, and already you've got her booked. >> listen to you. you're a trend setter. >> all right, man, good friday, good weekend to you. bp can once again do work for the federal government. the company said it reached a deal with the environmental protection agency. bp was suspended from performing government work in 2012 after pleading guilty and paying a huge crim fine. >>> cry means are about to decide whether to become independent or join russia. and the vot vote has other peopn parts of ukraine worried that they may be next. >> tomorrow is the

>> certainly urban areas, inner cities, you can get heroin cheap pretty much anywhere. that's the case in urban america, as well. >> 2010 according to c.d.c., we lost over 16,000 people to prescription drugs. we lost over 3,000 to heroin. that's almost 20 for us people and that was four years ago. i hate to see what the numbers are, there's usually a lag time. i hate to see what those numbers are for 2012, 2013, 2014. these aren't just numbers to hang on a story line. >> they are people and real lives. >> absolutely. >> all right, thank you very much for being with us here. >> our special series, addicted in vermont continues next time on this program when correspondent adam may investigates a state in relaps and desperate people looking to get clean. >> in vermont now, you'll see insurance only paying for two weeks at a rehab facility. i think that's bizarre. in my first two weeks, i wasn't ready. >> what's working and what's not, as vermont fights the rampant spread of heroin in its quiet communities, thursday on america tonight. ahead after the break, with this crisis

third way, and maybe the simplest, and maybe the difficult as well is to take care of the urban basics. a city where it's jobs, public safety - they are the main concerns of the middle class and concerns of everyone else. >> if those things were in place in a better way in philadelphia, you have a larger chance of maintaining the middle class. if you have education and it's a safe city, you have a better chance of attracting a middle class residence. >> that's right, and the good news is the population has been growing. we've had an influx of young adults giving the city a lot of energy and giving it an opportunity to change the dynamics. >> good to talk to you. larry ickle is the project director at the pew charitable trust. a promise for this show is to understand what is happening to the middle class. it's shrinking. more disturbing, people are slipping out of the middle class quickly. a third of americans raised in the middle class dropped down the economic ladder as adults. the number one cause, unemployment. ali got into a cab with a new york city kab driver, but not by choice. jay had a

these are almost ideal troops for occupying cities and urban areas. there are certainly pro-russian elements in some of the cities in the eastern ukraine. so at almost any time you could have a russian thrust into the eastern ukraine, and one that could at least take some cities, probably in a matter of days, if not hours. >> we've been focused on crimea. are there other regions we need to be concerned about? last week we mentioned the area between moldova and ukraine. >> russia has a limited presence in the area already. it is not a marriage combat presence, but there is no major combat presence in that area, in the ukraine to the east or to the west. it's certainly an area russia could suddenly put pressure on the ukraine. there is an airborne guard division, basically, which could be moved in, at least in part, fairly quickly. because the ukraine, frankly, is not capable of effective air defense. so russia certainly has the ability to put pressure on the ukraine in two different directions. and i think what's of great concern to the ukraine is when

city? >> clearly we think urban agriculture has great potential. we're able to produce even a small percentage of the food which is consumed in detroit and circulate the revenues from that food within our community, then we're able to create a more vibrant, healthy, economically strong community. so we think it has tremendous potential. ♪ >> who will live in the detroit of the future? there's no question, is there, that detroit will come back? in one form or another, a city this magnificent, this storied, this american -- cannot, will not ever disappear into the weeds. there are too few places this beautiful for it to be allowed to crumble like angkor or rome. someone will live in a smaller, tighter, no doubt hipper, much contracted, new detroit. but who will that be? will it be the people who stuck it out here? who fought block by block to keep their city from burning? who struggle to defend their homes, keep up appearances, as all around them their neighborhoods emptied? what will detroit look like in 20 years? or 50? that's not just a detroit qu

i want to share the word from our company the national real estate company that builds urban homes around the city we've build one hundred and 68 housing in rough areas around the united states. we went to cleveland decades ago when everyone was leaving and after hurricane katrina we've built 15 hundred units there. (clapping.) the city of detroit declares bankrupts and we were there the next day we go where not only wants to do we built one hundred and 68 developments in those communities and built them for people that need descendent affordable housing. that's what we choose to do and those are the kind of developments we want to do. this is the only development i've done that has chosen me (clapping) and that's the gospel truth. 6 years ago i got a phone call from michael by an a mutual friend of george davis who calls me and says i have a friend looking for a developer i think you're the guy that can get along with him and meet his dandy live in la i flew up and met we talked about and he introduced me to his lovely wife and we had lunch and through three done some dominos and played cards ii

and citi has formed a partnership with our company so that we can take all the lessons from the revitalization of urban america to other cities so we are now working in chicago and in washington dc and newark. its amazing how important safe affordable housing is to the future of our society. >>> we're certainly keeping our eyes on the latest news coming in from the search for flight 370. in washington state there is deep concern about new landslides as searchers and emergency officials try to locate 108 people reported missing after a deadly landslide this weekend. we know eight people are confirmed dead but some of those missing might be alive. let's go to george howell on the scene with the latest. >> reporter: we know that earlier this morning they announced a very robust plan to go in there with search dogs and people on the ground to search the land for survivors but pulled the plan back because geologists say the land is just too unstable. for many of the families here it is another day of waiting, wondering. we know the number of unaccounted for has risen significantly. it's unclear exactly how

and with a big push for urbanization making big cities like beijing even bigger, oh, they gridlock is just going to get worse. driving through the pretty intense beijing traffic problem. various measures have been introduced to try to curb this. that is the plan at least. they have not taken effect. >> the problem is that they are temporary. they will ease the problem but will not solve the problem of the number of cars on the road. last year, 22 million sold gold literally can carmakers -- sold globally. carmakers are planning to put out 120 million vehicles out in 2016. that is a big jump. toto sell them as opposed take them off the rose. >> yes. is also predict in that there will be something called peak car. the number of cars will topple at 100 million per year because of the gridlock on the roads. so it is quickly becoming chicken-and-eight. people cannot get around. people will find alternatives to travel around. the yuan is predicting that there will be 22 megacities next is predictingn. that there will be 22 megacities next year. that will be people in close park city wanting

and of course there's more and more urbanization. so cities are getting bigger. what do they need?y need trains to move people in cities. we're the world's biggest company in this field. so it's high-speed train, trams, metros, so on. >> i have to ask you about this because on my plane last night, all people were talking about, they asked the pilots, all the attendants, do you have a theory on the malaysian plane? and everyone had a theory. but you would know more than most. >> well, it's a mystery. >> it is, right? >> it's something i hope gets solved fairly rapidly. we're an airplane manufacturer, we want to understand what happened. >> excellent. well, you know, i know that the planes are -- there was a problem here, looks like you're at a trough point. you're not an american company so i can't say how i feel but it does seem like it's about to go like this. okay, that was pierre beaudoin, president and ceo of bombardier. demand for trade, demand for planes remains very strong. stay with cramer. bomb ba deer. ♪ [ male announcer ] how could switchgrass in argentina, change engine

important for this council we are in 4,000 all urban inner city low-wealth schools. like chairman rogers, john, this is personal to me. my mom and dad divorced when i was about 5. i remember them arguing over money. numb one cause of divorce -- number one cause of divorce in america is money. no one calls it domestic abuse. it's money. that put a searing effect in my brain. when i was 9 i remember a banker came to my classroom to teach me financial literacy. i was in california. i remember asking the banker, what did you do for a living? and how did you get rich legally? and i was dead serious. i never saw anybody with a suit on before in my classroom. and he talked, he told me he financed entrepreneurs. i don't know what a entrepreneur is, but i want to be one. and that kept me focused. it got my aspirations high. got me engaged. i was homeless when i was six months of my life when i was 18, but none of that got me off track because i was focused on my dreams. why is that relevant to today? i think the real challenge for our dropout crisis we have in america, which
