we understand how important it is for us as americans to see ourselves and who we are and where we are traveling through as we travel. that is crucial. i went to east berlin in the mid-1980's. and i saw what happened in that communist dystopia. you have realism everywhere. had blank walls everywhere and one of the most deck resting places -- depressing places i have ever been. it is part of what transit can do. quickly be on the art, when steve asked about what they can do, they have a grant program for small community advocacy communities, i think that can be built upon to unleash the entrepreneurialism of american advocates everywhere. there are 70 people in each one of the community soon knows what needs to be done, who had the vision who needs help to figure out what to do so you do not ache the mistakes i first did. have someone go to the communities. bring expertise. how can you get people organized and get them for transit initiatives? changing this country the way we need to change -- change it to thrive in the century. that would be huge. >> i agree with everything said and ha

there is nothing in it for us as americans and, of course, there's absolutely nothing in it for the cuban people. >> let me go back on this a little bit. the argument people make that say the embargo outlived uselessness, china a not a free society, censorship of the meats and we do business, incredible amounts of business with the government of china and other regimes that would be considered not exactly bastions of freedom. why cuba and not the other countries? >> i think that you hit the nail on the head. when you look at the relations we have with vietnam, with china, we see that while there might be some economic infractions from government to government, at the end of day people of china ask vietnam con to suffer that exact same oppression. how can we in the united states bass mcthe freedom? how can we not allow but then sanction -- be okay with the horrors that are happening in cu cuba? it is a regime that routinely jails people for simply having an opinion. routinely jails members of the press. right now will is an american citizen named ali grove that's in cuba for the crime of g

it is important to all of us as americans that we identify who our enemy is. withve to be very careful protecting the privacy of individual americans. that has never been surrendered, from the beginning of the nation. general, when you said we are facing a decentralized enemy in an era where the internet -- you cannot take the battery out of this thing and turn it off. it is ubiquitous. i am delighted to hear that the fbi director does not use one. it gives you an idea how dangerous these are. i hope that you will keep that at the forefront of your mind. efforts of the fbi to gather it intelligence -- talk to us if you could during this time, help to guide us as policymakers. keep it in your mind -- how do we, in this whole new era of incredible access to information, we know -- fbi has told us that the chinese can turn on cameras remotely and watch and hear everything you're doing. how do we protect individual privacy rights of americans? americans.w-abiding dr. hoffman, you say you follow this guy on twitter to see what he's up to. does the fbi have the righ

>> it is. >> the afghans don't see us as occupiers because -- how many people are in afghanistan? >> 30 million. >> how many of there are us? >> 33,000 americans. >> how long can they survive if 30 million saw us as an occupier? >> it would be a difficult circumstance. >> it would be. i would not want to be there. the point is you have green on blue. if they didn't want us, we wouldn't be there. it offends me when people suggest that we are the british empire a long time ago or the russians. you have two choices. one choices to go back to the pre-9/11, nobody there, no money there. how much would it cost the american taxpayer to maintain a 350,000 plus afghan army, how much would it cost to maintain 12,000 troops, compare the benefit we would achieve from that investment versus leaving, nobody left behind, and see where the smart play is. >> the cost of afghan security forces at about 352,000 in 2015 would be $5 billion. our coalition partners have committed to pay $1.3 billion of that. afghanistan will play $500 million. the cost to the u.s., it would be in the order of $300 million. we are still working the figures for our actual presence ov

and what effect will it have on us as americans? we get. i can't even answer the question of what problem it intends to solve. no one has presented any evidence that the american tenure over this kind of a service -- or supervision over this type of service has created problems. quite to the contrary, tremendous prosperity and growth all around the world. and it's one of the sort of last -- last areas of freedom when you have people struggling to against tyranny to have free access to information over the internet. this idea that we turn it over to an ill-defined international community is completely misguided to me. >> is it my understanding, is it correct that russia and china have been pushing for some say as to the use and control of the international internet? and if that's true, a couple of the most oppressive regimes in the world, what right do they have to touch our internet in this country? >> this is the risk. if it goes in the direction of the international community, what would that mean? usually it means it's gravitatin

i know it's a source of concern for you enough for all of us as americans the importance of identifying who our enemy is, we have to be careful we are protecting the privacy of the individual americans. and so when you said we are facing a decentralized enemy in an area like this, we can take the battery out of this thing and turn it off. and it's ubiquitous. i'm delighted and i hope he will keep that in the forefront of your mind. the efforts to gather intelligence on who the enemy is. but at the same time, you have to work with us and guide us as policymakers and keep in the forefront of your mind. when we have this whole new era of incredible access to information. and we know that the fbi has told us that the chinese are able to actually turn on cameras remotely so in some cases we have to see what he is up to, does the fbi have the right to come in and invade your privacy? does he have the right to come in -- they broke into your computer. the communist chinese government broke into this man's official computer and sucked it dry as he was helping chinese dissidents. and i think he

easy to miss this milestone but it's a milestone that i think should have some significance to us as americans. americans should be proud of the role that we have played in bringing the afghan people to this point, given the significant sacrifice that members of our country have made. there have been nearly 2,300 service members who have given their lives in afghanistan, 2,299. the united states has spent $600 billion in afghanistan since september of 2011. while we can't gloss over the challenges that remain in afghanistan, today and tomorrow we should remember the progress that has been achieved in 13 years since the taliban fell in october of 2001. progress that has been made possible because of the sacrifices of american service men and women, our diplomats, the american people, and the grit and determination of the afghan people. on april 5, afghans will defy those who seek who intimidate them through violence and terrorism because it's a fundamental choice. does afghanistan want to move forward or go backward to horrific days. the ink-stained finger of an afghan voter will send a far mor

american history. while important a singular focus on symbolic achievement as embodied by president obama has involved us losing sight of african american history. progress was halting, it was painful, progress often meant taking one step forward and two steps back. progress was marked by both profound joy and deep sorrow as the great james baldwin once wrote, american history a longer, larger, more variant, more beautiful and more terrible than anything anyone has ever said about it. in thinking about these powerful words and thinking about the history of black history month and the theme of it this year, civil rights in america, is incredibly important. what is the need to talk about civil rights in /pherblg. america. it's understandable that we would think about what this means in the context, since the remarkable achievements of the civil rights movement. we also have to recognize we're talking about a history a tradition, one rooted in the long history of people of african decent in this country. the civil rights movement did not start with brown verse board of education or the montgomery busboy cot

time on their job search, not willing to lower the wage they'll accept and not moving as much as americans used reses sue mays once you've been out of work six months it's hard to get back in. employers really discount those resumes. a better strategy is to lower your wage early, lower the amount you're willing to accept and say i can work up to it later. that's what i did ten years ago when i was laid off after a business school, i basically took a job that paid a third of what i was expecting and worked back towards, you know, i'll probably never make big management consulting money but back to where something i was living pretty comfortably. people are reluctant to do that. humans are what economists call -- once we've had something it's hard to admit it didn't work. that's why you see gamblers going back trying to double down at the casino and win their money even though they of all people should know the house always wins in the end. >> what's the most important failure you've learned from? >> there's so many. i would say the biggest one was being unemployed for two years. in the first pla
