Over 10 years. I wonder why they would not go to the oil companies and ask them to give back their billions and billions and billions in subsidies. I wonder why they would not go and ask the pharmaceutical companies. But what really strikes me as odd as you talked about the premium going up and the copay going up. I wonder if the health care we have given to Iraqis, I wonder if they are asking them for a copay. I wonder if they are asking the Iraqi citizens who are getting free universal health care in Iraq for a copay. Does anyone know? Because I do not know.
