It's curious. You're talking about, according to CBO, a board whose operation would be triggered in 2022. You come here and scare people. It doesn't work. You talk about rationing. You're talking about an operation 10 years from now. Right now, health care is being rationed. You have 50-plus million people who have no insurance, 50-plus million people who have no insurance at all, and you haven't come up with a bill that would address that. I am proud to yield 4 minutes to the gentleman from New Jersey (Mr. Andrews), who has been so key in the health care debates. (Mr. ANDREWS asked and was given permission to revise and extend his remarks.)
