Im ceo and founder of shapeways. Im honored to be here today to discuss how 3d printing is fueling Small Business growth enabling anyone to create a business with fiscal products at low capital cost. As a kid in the netherlands, i loved playing with computers resulting in a passion for open Source Software. Driven by this and my entrepreneurial spirit, i spent much of my career at Startup Software companies. One was blender, the First Company to publish a free 3d software. This turned out to be important. In 2006 i learned about the technology called 3d printing which prints physical objects based on 3d computer designs. I immediately thought of the blender community. A large group of enthusiasts. They were using 3d software but never imagined it would be possible to hold their own designs in their hands. I a
And control your personal life that are then you can. The republican will be a little different. He will tell you he knows how to raise your children and spend your money. I am a libertarian and have to tell you, i believe these are things only you can do. I do not agree that we have to continue funding an excessively bloated education program. We are not getting our moneys worth and more money is not the answer. Otherwise washington would not be a willing us out of last place in the state. I think you will see all whole lot of differences that mindful always be focused on the rights of the individual and protecting you. That is why i want to be your governor. Lets get the discussion started. How are you going to balance the budget you dont court say you have to pay for them. How will you pay for them . The Supreme Court has ruled and said the voters were quite clear that we needed to pray pay back the money. The first place to start is the Rainy Day Fund. So we need to use the Rainy D

According to the official results of the referendum it was what . 98 support for seceding and becoming part of russia and that was during a time when the russian army occupied crimea. And so it was not a free and Fair Election. But im prepared to believe that had it been a free and Fair Election in crimea at that time over half would have said the same thing. I would agree. There is clearly discontent in that part of ukraine. I would just like to add that this is spoken of a fan of usia in the past. I think it shows the effect particularly among the russian speakers who depend on Russian Television in those areas as a source of information in their view of the world is a constant 24 hour of russian information policies. The effect of television particularly monopoly television and the fact that as the crisis started there was almost nothing comparable to the organized innovation information transmission that was going on in that part which was voluntarily chosen.

All of these costs have to come out of somewhere. And its going to be the consumers wallet. And that is one of the reaso
