Well, I thank Mr. Ross. I think it is important to talk about the fact that you ought to have a plan. You know, you have a family business you own back in Arkansas, a pharmacy; and when you borrow money to help take out a business loan, the bank asks you for a plan, how are you going to pay that back. Right now, the Federal Government is borrowing money, and I do not know that there is a plan out there that has been articulated for how we are going to pay that back.

Broadband is so important to day to day life, we want to make sure we all have access, but it has got to be at the right speed, it has got to be scalable to the future it has got to be affordable.
