I think that the profitability is probably going to be much less because I would think that, in my particular case, in my practice--and I am not speaking for the AOA--I can't buy a lens in the same volume that 1-800 can.

we had to cut a number of our critical IT projects, right?

I've got people on the ground handling that discussion back and forth with a live patient in the room.

I get that. But is there a free rider problem and are profit margins diminishing?

She wields the gavel very effectively.

Have you found that the profit margin for eyecare professionals in the context of selling contact lenses is diminishing?

Thank you very much, Madam Chair, and thanks to all of you for joining us today.

Many medical experts and health providers have strong moral and ethical concerns, as they have every right to have, with providing abortions.

I believe in the innate dignity of every human life, and I believe every human society is rightly judged by how it treats its most vulnerable members.

Allowing powerful ISPs or giant Internet companies to control what we see and share on the Internet is inimical to the health of our Nation.

Free expression and democratic engagement suffer in a gated Internet.

These combinations are a major reason why your country and mine has gone from broadband leader 15 years ago to broadband laggard today.
