within the rural development segment within the usda. one of the problems is that we start talking about assistance, assistance for the residents, rural residents typically don't take take advantage of the section eight program. there is a whole separate program that is there for the rural resident. just like hud, the usda has a lot of programs that are funded under the agriculture department and agriculture appropriations. the rural development is constantly fighting for money from even within their own agency. that is one of the things that when we go into the conversation on capitol hill and we talk to folks, we have to say forget to say don't forget, it's two different programs. they don't mesh all the time and what you give to one does not necessarily go to the other. >> do you think that needs to be changed? i'm not joking when i say i do read urban institute programs. i try to be somewhat literate in the topics i discussed, but i did not know what you just shared about the department of agriculture and these rural community grants

apps and usda and honestly, their traditional broadband program and their loan program as well as the reconnect ransom month program and they have gone through the rulemaking process and are in action in infusing those two programs that are already coordinating to some degree is honestly the most efficient and most effective way of using resources. anything that people want to come up with their neural program but i think we've got to be honest about what works and we note those programs and we can see the networks as they are going into the ground and again to that end i would just say we also have to continue to remember it's not just them building it but also that sustaining what we've already got on the ground in that network or we can split and with the government and it's an investment grade we got to sustain those as well. i think all of that is important but it does lead to the question of, you know, all right now we got to improve mapping so use those programs and that is the next step we need to be taking. >> what are the programs that the fcc has started to put in place bef

and we feed to also more answers from the usda about what is going to go on. there is almost no enforcement on some of these things. so i also just add on country of origin labelling, even under the usda guidelines, meet could come from overseas and if it comes into a factory by a u.s. meat backer it could be labelled as product of usa. it is totally inconsistent with every country of origin stand and ard it feels like a give away to me. >> you're correct and it is a giveaway. and guess who suffers. the people in production suffer because you're bringing in crappy meat with brazil and argentina and the consumer doesn't know the difference. so we agree. the question i have for you, mr. chopra, before i go to commissioner wilson, is there anything that the ftc could do about it or congress has to get off their butt and do it. >> i would push congress but legally and i'm happy to share more with you and your staff later, our authorities are much different when it comes to poultry products and margarine versus other types of meat. the justice department does a lot
