Well, I would just say that, sometimes when we are working on trying to solve this fiscal problem, the recognition that a long-term fix is what is needed puts many people in the position that they do not know how you do that and do it now.

If it is adopted, or something close to it, you will have fixed, in our opinion, a major problem with Medicare.

If indeed you intend to have a bipartisan solution, then obviously you have to do some of the things we are talking about, some give-and-take.
