And all of those dollars take hardworking Americans waking up every single day, making certain that they have cared for themselves and their family, and getting to work and being generous enough to entrust to us their hard-earned money, and it is incumbent upon us to spend that money wisely. And the challenge that I see with every government program, but especially this State Children's Health Insurance Program; it is a noble cause. It is a noble cause without a doubt.
