and i do believe that washington, d.c. is not asking itself the question, are our citizens ready to fight for europe? and if you ask this question i think you know the answer is not so obvious. it was the case during the cold war because fighting for europe was really fighting ussr, fighting a threat which was not only a threat to us but to all of our international community. today, what would happen the question is really raising in real, real terms. and if you think that president obama and president trump, i i remember, i remind you that the two presidents really in a very different manner of course because they are very different, but the two questions are raising more or less were raising and are raising more or less this question because i think they were sensitive to the mood of this country terms of involvement, terms of fatigue, really after what happened especially under george w. bush. i think it's one of the worries that expressing about relationship is about that i have about the commitment of common one side

like washington d.c. they don't use money bail and eighty eight percent of us us somewhere around there are the people who actually you know get released come back to their arrests free you know so this idea of bail being effective you know to me seems a bit of a fallacy and what's really effective i think is sort of helping communities what their needs are you know helping communities putting the effort energy and money that we might jail to community to think. i would make on that would be that you can't blame the bill industry for the problems in illinois because we don't operate in the state of illinois so it's not our fault of what's going on in chicago that's that's what we have nothing to do with out but what i would say is that washington d.c. is a potential alternative and really it's a cause for policymakers you're looking at sixty five to seventy million dollars and bus probably would be inflated if we were to apply to other jurisdictions but there's a taxpayer cost implement that system when y
