"You just don't want to have too much so that it loses the whole advantage of being able to get more people to participate."

"I don't want to lose ground on the major functions."

"Because you have a situation where you have to deal with retiree health care at the expense of readiness to fight the war of today and tomorrow, and that is a choice we don't want to make."
