“No. And, more importantly, maybe I do not believe it has been, but neither has GAO or the Congressional Budget Office. I talked about that when we first started. In their hearings before us, they had made more than a few comments about the fact that they were not sure we had this together enough yet, and what we are doing is we are making sure now, because we have rushed into this and perhaps did not take the best contract. We have got our military retirees, our active duty dependents that do not have access to care. Their care is going up. I cannot speak to the quality, but one has got to question it when you start reducing the dollars in it. We have got these, and then we have got other citizens, small business people who have a small office. They are being attacked by this giant insurance company saying, You better come to work for me because I put out a $1.7 billion bid and I can't fix teeth. I've got to have dentists to do that. You guys come to work for me, or we're going to spread your name around town as being unselfish or unwilling to cooperate. That is hard to take for a small business, and that is what a little dental office is. They are being picked on by this giant conglomerate of insurance companies, where they are trying to force them to come to work and not be able to make a living. Then they have done worse than that. We will get into that in just a minute, too.”
