Get really nervous and thats much the same way donald trump, as you say a new yorker to the bone is a suddenly plain that you may not have guessed we first heard him talk. You can watch this and other programs on my netbook tv. Org. Good morning and welcome to the Cato Institute. Im an analyst here and also editor of Human Progress, which is an educational website that tries to put together as many statistics about human world being as possible in order to present to our users and the general public a more real action of the world than the headlines would suggest. Speaking about headlines, it is perhaps an understatement to say that we live in an era of great pessimism. This pessimism is not distributed easily evenly across the world. But, it is felt very acutely in many western democracies including ours, here in the us. Some three quarters of americans believe that the us is going in the wrong direction.

These are some scenes from a brilliant french movie in 1959 about a man who goes back in time to a better era, the goldold days, where everything was wonderful. But then hes there and he thinks its pretty good but then he meets an old man who tells him, oh, you should have been there when i was yo

Back downtown to you guys. Thanks so much. And the jobs report is helping the jobs report today. 287,000 jobs added last month. All major indices on that news now made up their losses from before the brexit vote and only took two weeks to make a round trip. Lets bring in barry jam
Mutually protocol, so im interested in not going through it today but in reviewing that we do in terms of the protocol, what it is and how it is communicated to our workforce, number one. And number two, im wondering if the department has ideas on how the physical layout of the plan, the campus, might be adjusted to enhance safety and also to enhance the capacity of your members to do their job . Certainly the physical security is one of our main issues. We have a very robust physical Security Services bureau, and they had all the physical security aspects working very closely with the architect and the capital. The measures that were put in place post9 11, we are at the lifecycle in a a lot of the life. We are looking at doing lifecycle replacement. Of course, always a very expensive issue but its certainly something that is very necessary. Let me interrupt because i dont think i was clear on my question. For example, where is the perimeter . You cant really, i mean, we respect the fo
