Education is an investment in the future.

(Applause)

What we saw was a natural experiment.

Do you have a job yet?

Sure, we invest plenty in innovation.

It's not easy.

With the major part of the expenditure, going towards by medicines regularly.

Surely, just as we invest in R and D, two, three, four percent, of our GDP, of our economy, what if we put, let's say, one percent of public spending into social innovation, into elder care, new kinds of education, new ways of helping the disabled?

But a demographic dividend is only as good as the investment in your human capital.

(Applause)

But everything that I said here tonight, or the commandments, are means, are ways, for us to govern cities invest in infrastructure, invest in the green, open parks, open spaces, integrate socially, use technology.

It was the government that made law function finally.

Globalization is increasing the demand for ideas, the incentive to create new ideas.

The amount of money you get.

Take all the real investment that went on in the world in 2010.

So basically Republicans who make more than 250,000 dollars a year don't want to be taxed.

How much pressure are you feeling from your investors right now?

And, of course, when you have consumption touching up against you're fully utilized, that makes it even more an incentive to invest.

And this woman is very happy now, bringing her products to the market.

So you can see two countries spent their money very differently, and actually how they spent their money matters a lot more than how much they invest in education.

But we have a neat website.

We need a bigger conversation, an international dialogue.

And that's actually crucial because if we're going to get increased investment in early childhood programs, we need to interest state governments in this.

You can order your condoms with your with your cappuccino.

I want it go to the needy.

Investment

Now, who are they accountable to?

Malibu Equity and Investments.

Well their intention was to take these home equity loans and put that money to work, invest it in some way.

Investment has to be, in the new economy, protecting and nurturing the ecological assets on which our future depends.

It is education that is key to the success.

We need to educate the kids.

Help me fight for environmental and economic justice.

Peter Bradford says

In this talk today, I want to present a different idea for why investing in early childhood education makes sense as a public investment.

He valued what we already had at 5 million dollars.

These programs can promote more and better jobs by, you build it, you invest in high quality preschool, it develops the skills of your local workforce if enough of them stick around, and, in turn, that higher quality local workforce will be a key driver of creating jobs and creating higher earnings per capita in the local community.

But we really have to educate.

They're valuing these assets at 1 million.

Investing in professional development is not a cost.
