I just want to make the quick point that every commodity, sugar, corn, soybeans, are reduced on the AGI from $2.5 million down to 1, except sugar.

Sugar is not only protected, it's helped through this bill instead of reformed like the other commodities.

BRAC, as a model, if we do it right and make sure it is efficient and accountable, is a good process for an objective look at how to reform a host of other programs.
