You know what would help in this regard is this whole broad concept of enterprise zones. And what it says is to give breaks to businesses to move to areas where you really are adversely impacted by unemployment. I think that concept makes sense. I'm glad that approach to letting the control of education be closer to the ground is making sense. We have a national program called America 2000. Congress--I hope you don't sound, I'm down on the Democratic- controlled Congress that I am--but I am. We need to change it. We need to clean House. And we need to, but we can get a lot done without it on this program called America 2000, because it bypasses a lot of the bureaucracy and goes right to the communities. Where are we for the next one?
