The gentleman is not opposed to advisory opinions, but the legislative debate here today dealt with offshore investment of pension plan money, dealt with infrastructure; and the legislative history can be construed in many, many different ways. I think ETI's applied to housing at times can be a little bit partisan here. Housing may not necessarily be an economically targeted investment in this country. I believe that it should be not in the report language but it should be part and parcel to the bill itself that treats such investment with such return on its merit.
