That means there will be an extended cost of doing business associated with this particular plan. Even though when we say anyone making over $250,000 will not be taxed, it will be taxed. Once again, if that was simply a salaried employee--a salaried employee--that sounds pretty good. But that covers almost all the businesses we have who are small in this country, and large as well. Once again, it does go to the point we tried to make a little bit earlier. The Shadegg bill, the Price bill, the other Republicans' bills that should have been allowed to be debated, they don't have any of those provisions. So that negative anti-job aspect that is definitely a part of this bill if it's pushed through does not necessarily have to be there if you simply allowed the other ideas to be debated, discussed openly here on the floor.
