can. we can't find tech people just like the rest of these people. i have people here on visas. it cost me a lot of time and money to acquire these people and to get them in. we're happy to pay the money because they are valuable. but i would rather give the jobs to homegrown people. we know have you a bill going through that will increase the h1bc tech companies. what would make it easier tore tech companies to swallow is to know that some of the money is used to solve their long-term problem. if you could say, chafr side, hey, not even a new tax or new money, take that hbd1c money, put some aside to solve problems so down the road we don't have to do it this way, and i suggest if you could take some of that money and make it available to the schools so that they can internally leverage all of the things you just heard about. the comment of time and money it would take to internally build a robotics program to bring in world class scientists and engineers in the classroom, you can't do it, you don't need to do it. they are there. they are free. let schools leverage the programs by giving them the stippen or the coach. ability to pay the fee to get to the event. figure out how to focus money on schools that need it most. that way you solve multiple problems. i hope you get consensus. indust industry would be more supportive if they thought it would solve their problems. >> thank you. with the minute and a half i have left, let me focus on two. mr. partovi, you talked about failure of adequate representative of women and minority in the stem field. again, how do you think the federal government is doing in terms of o some of its programs to broaden diversity in the stem fields and can you give direction whether it be through nsf programs or others to what we ought to do to raise our game? >> sure. first of all, what i showed was not about stem, just about computer science. that's my focus. the two issues are slightly different. the female is the cultural one. girls being just, the culture all around making them think this is not for me. the african-american and his spannic american is just more availability. equal or greater interest level among african-americans or hispanic-americans with science but schools don't teach it. and that's the bigger problem that i would suggest that you focus on.
