Life sciences and clean energy it helped us to weather this economic downturn and like. A couple of other sectors like that health care education sectors all of these areas of our focus that has helped and will help the accelerator countries on. You know we're not have -- yet by any need a lot of work to view and still some tremendous stresses on the state disk. But the private economy is coming around and as long as. Where on that right track and and until frankly every worker and every family every business deals that. Brighter future it is continue to be again."

[1:29]" Well we gotta keep that it you know for one thing you know those numbers are. Are higher then normal in part because there aren't more people coming back into the work force people who stayed people who had given up. Looking origin -- looking can't edit its own. It is quiet indicator of optimism and what we -- do courses sure. That they -- good jobs livable wages for every one of those individuals looking to got a lot of work to it is private sector is still. Still recovering we're not there yet but we're on the right path and I think that means a lot of the investments in the focus that we have had for the last few years --"
[2:10]" So what are we doing right to a lot of people in the past moved out of Massachusetts they've moved the sun belt and our -- reverse of that. Why Massachusetts. Success what are we -- right."
[2:22]" Well you know what I have believe for a long time and it's not a very glamorous thing but it certainly something we have been working on it that we have to invest in ourselves you know -- got to. Incest and strengthening our education we have to invest in. Roads and bridges in and public infrastructure in the expansion of broadband. In many parts of the commonwealth but don't have it or don't have adequate service all of these things you've been working. And then those sectors that we know will lift us up like life sciences and clean tech. And IP which here and health care education which are driving. This recovery the areas we've been focusing -- I think this is -- in the right. You know -- wanna acknowledge he got a lot of distance to go yet but we're on the right right -- I'm optimist. Again I hope the rest of the yes and the residents council which means."
