I think all we talked about in that last amendment applies to this amendment, with one additional thing that people should find offensive, because here we are dealing with project-based rental assistance. Not only are we encouraging some people not to work very hard, not only are we encouraging people not to raise children in an old- fashioned nuclear family, we are also kind of having a strong element of corporate welfare here, too, which is something I don't care for. Over time, we have this kind of industry growing up in which you operate low-income housing. In some ways, I assume people are entering into it because it is more profitable than a pure, free market sort of thing; and I would think that people who are opposed to corporate welfare ought to be opposed to it for that reason as well. I reserve the balance of my time.
