The Armstrong and 6 00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:23,400 Speaker 1: Getty Show and this a point at the meet. The 7 00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:27,560 Speaker 1: reason the President and Leader McConnell are moving forward so 8 00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:31,680 Speaker 1: quickly is because they want to overturn the Affordable Care Act. 9 00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:35,720 Speaker 1: And when people understand and they do what this means 10 00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:40,360 Speaker 1: in their lives. No more benefit of the pre existing condition, 11 00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:44,760 Speaker 1: no more having your children doing your policy until twenty 12 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:49,000 Speaker 1: six years old, no more having Medicaid expanded to cover 13 00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:52,280 Speaker 1: long term healthcare in the needs of our children with 14 00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:55,680 Speaker 1: pre existing conditions, and returning to a time where being 15 00:00:55,680 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 1: a woman is a pre existing medical condition. The people 16 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:04,200 Speaker 1: know that, and that's why the Republicans are rushing. They 17 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:06,360 Speaker 1: want to get it done so they can overturn the 18 00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 1: Affordable Care Act. So the very sad one Jerry Nadler 19 00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:14,600 Speaker 1: pooped himself right then, the very smart and crafty Nancy 20 00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:17,959 Speaker 1: Pelosi clearly decided on the Sunday Shows and sense that 21 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:20,440 Speaker 1: the way to handle this Supreme Court thing is we 22 00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:23,040 Speaker 1: can't we can't stop them, but we just got to 23 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:28,639 Speaker 1: make people scared of Republicans not having the Senate because 24 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 1: with the with the Supreme Court in the Senate, they 25 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 1: are going to destroy Obamacare. That's what the Supreme Court 26 00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:36,000 Speaker 1: is going to do. And then so then I was 27 00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: listening to one of my favorite right leaning but fair 28 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:43,200 Speaker 1: podcasts and they said, no, that's way, way overstated. And 29 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 1: I thought, I have no idea what's up for discussion, 30 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 1: But I know somebody who does know. Indeed, that would 31 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:52,680 Speaker 1: be Craig got Wall's Craig the healthcare Guru, formerly known 32 00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 1: as Craig the Obamacare Lawyer, attorney, law benefit consultant, and 33 00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 1: the the keeper of the Benefit Revolution webs etcetera. Greig, 34 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 1: how are you, sir? I am well, how are you? Gentlemen? Oh? 35 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:09,799 Speaker 1: Just just terrific, really awesome, dude. It's really twenty man, 36 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 1: really enjoying the news cycle, feeling close to our fellow Americans. 37 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:17,799 Speaker 1: It's just smooth sailing is going great anyway. Um, so, 38 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 1: what what is your take on this upcoming decision? How's 39 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:28,640 Speaker 1: it being misreported? What? What's the reality here? Well, this 40 00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 1: thing has been potentially the most misreported story on on 41 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 1: the Affordable Care Act or or Obamacare, whatever you want 42 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,919 Speaker 1: to call it, because, um, we we really have not 43 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:44,240 Speaker 1: had an individual mandate ever. Uh, going way back to 44 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,840 Speaker 1: the beginning of Obamacare, they put an individual mandate in. 45 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 1: The logic was you need to have an individual mandate 46 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:51,520 Speaker 1: because you've got to have the healthy people buying in 47 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:53,640 Speaker 1: as well as the sick people so that you balance 48 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 1: out premium and insurance works as it's intended and we 49 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:59,640 Speaker 1: don't end up with what they labeled a death spiral. Right, 50 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 1: So that's how insurance works. But if you'll remember all 51 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:08,640 Speaker 1: the way back into the into the early teens, immediately 52 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:12,640 Speaker 1: once Democrats passed this law, they realized, what will It 53 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,640 Speaker 1: is not politically popular for us to be finding our 54 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 1: constituents who cannot afford healthcare. So at peak lunacy, at 55 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:26,239 Speaker 1: peak insanity, and Obamacare they had administratively, not through legislature, 56 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 1: but through bureaucrats in d C. They had created thirty 57 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:33,800 Speaker 1: two different exemptions to the individual mandate, and it was 58 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 1: wonderful things like things that said, if you've received the 59 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 1: p g n E shut off notice in the last 60 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:41,400 Speaker 1: six months, you don't have to buy obamacare. If you 61 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 1: had a death in your family last year, you don't 62 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 1: have to buy obamacare. And our very favorite one, are 63 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 1: very favorite one was if you feel, yeah, that's right, 64 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 1: feel that the exchange plans are more expensive than what 65 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 1: you have available to you otherwise, then you don't have 66 00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 1: to buy Obamacare. I don't think. I don't think the 67 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 1: word feel should be in any government statute of any kind. 68 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 1: And so eventually, to skip ahead a little bit, the 69 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 1: individual mandate only applied to two percent of people, right, 70 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 1: that's right of Americans were able to pass the very 71 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 1: very low i Q test that said, oh my gosh, 72 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:20,919 Speaker 1: all I gotta do. All I gotta do is pretend 73 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 1: I tried to buy Obamacare and the website was down 74 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 1: and boom, I'm exempted. So yeah, okay, two of Americans 75 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:28,800 Speaker 1: ever paid this fine. So the reason this is significant 76 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:33,159 Speaker 1: is because Judge Roberts cast the deciding votes saying Obamacare 77 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 1: in the original review was legal because the penalties for 78 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 1: not buying it in the individual mandate were attacks and 79 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: not a penalty. So it's okay that it came up 80 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:49,480 Speaker 1: in the House. Was it that has to start all taxes. Uh, 81 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 1: and it's it's a little legally complicated, but it's all 82 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:57,160 Speaker 1: about the individual mandate being attacks. Yes, So in Supreme 83 00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:01,040 Speaker 1: Court looked at it and Judge Roberts sp Court. Justice 84 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 1: Roberts decided that, yeah, Obamacare can stand. So take one 85 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 1: step beyond that. The administration and the people that supported 86 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 1: the law made the argument that, oh, we have to 87 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 1: have an individual mandate because without the individual mandate, the 88 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:18,479 Speaker 1: whole law crumbles. That was the Obama administration's argument. So 89 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:20,840 Speaker 1: it goes to the Supreme Court five cour decision with 90 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 1: Judge Roberts saying, yet, the individual mandate is integral to 91 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 1: the law, and we can save the individual mandate as 92 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:31,839 Speaker 1: a tax, all right. So then immediately after that, Democrats 93 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:33,720 Speaker 1: started looking at it did what I said, They put 94 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 1: all these exemptions in the individual mandate never actually compelled 95 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 1: anybody to buy anything. So fast forward all the way 96 00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 1: to where we passed a law Congress, President Trump signed it, 97 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 1: Congress pasted it. It was the tax cuts law that said, 98 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:53,720 Speaker 1: you know what, the individual mandates really a joke. We're 99 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 1: going to reduce the tax of the individu. We're gonna 100 00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:58,600 Speaker 1: keep the individual mandate in there. That's fine for for 101 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:00,960 Speaker 1: legal reasons. But we're gonna reduced the penalty of the 102 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 1: individual mandate to zero dollars. And everybody agreed to it, 103 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 1: Democrats and Republicans. It was a bipartisan passage. All right. 104 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:11,920 Speaker 1: We send some very very creative, very creative conservatives who 105 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: really hate Obamacare and want it gone started bringing cases. 106 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 1: In fact, there's a dozen or more states that brought 107 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 1: this case. The most popular one is Texas versus A 108 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 1: s R. A s R. Being the secretary of HHS. 109 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 1: We've spoken to. He's a close, dear friend of ours. 110 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 1: Go on, he's he's a good friend of the show. 111 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:32,799 Speaker 1: Eighteen states in total, actually, with Texas saying, okay, look, 112 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:36,799 Speaker 1: you you you argued in twelve that the individual mandate 113 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 1: was necessary. Otherwise the law crumbles, and we've all agreed 114 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 1: now that the individual mandate is zero. So therefore it 115 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 1: is no longer attacks by law. There is no authority 116 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 1: for this thing, and the law must fail. Federal court agreed, 117 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 1: Appellate Court agreed. On November tenth, our new Supreme Court 118 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 1: with eight or nine people on it, whoever knows, we'll 119 00:06:56,720 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 1: hear this case. So you can have a tax of 120 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 1: zero and still call it a tax. Therefore the entire 121 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 1: act is no longer coherent or whatever, and it goes away. 122 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 1: Then yes, according to this is the legal argument. Right, 123 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 1: So this is these are these are professorial types in 124 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:24,280 Speaker 1: in law in law classes saying and it's it's creative. 125 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 1: I have to hand it. The legal argument is strong, 126 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 1: and it says you you saved this law on the 127 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 1: individual mandate. The individual mandate is no more, therefore this 128 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 1: law must crumble. It's a very creative argument. Well, now, 129 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 1: the other side of your sume, as we mentioned in 130 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 1: the introduction, is your benefits consultant. You're an expert on 131 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 1: health insurance and company plans and the rest of it. 132 00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 1: If indeed the Supreme Court agrees with that legal reasoning, Uh, 133 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 1: the next day are the exchanges closed and nobody has 134 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 1: health insurance? And Nancy Pelosi's right on their own right 135 00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 1: exactly what what are you suppose would have no way, 136 00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:04,760 Speaker 1: no way under the sun that happens. Let me jump 137 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 1: ahead to the punchline, which I think will surprise you guys, 138 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 1: and then we can work backwards. Obamacare is here to stay, 139 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 1: at least that which is left of Obamacare. Obamacare is 140 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 1: so dramatically changed from what they were talking about passing 141 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 1: in two thousand nine. These the these, this thing is 142 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 1: completely different. It's it's way more insurer and public friendly 143 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 1: at this point that it's gonna stay. You're going to 144 00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 1: have kids on the plan until they're twenty six, you're 145 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 1: going to have exchanges. You're probably never going to have 146 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 1: an individual mandate again, which is great because that's what 147 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:40,720 Speaker 1: most conservatives and libertarians objected to, was the government compelling 148 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 1: them to buy something they didn't want. That was the 149 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 1: whole thing. Oh Jack, that's cute. You're so annequated. Do 150 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 1: you worry about our friend Boomer for things? Okay, Um, 151 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:58,079 Speaker 1: so Jack, let's let's just play with some numbers here 152 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,720 Speaker 1: and again. People are gonna be like Craig has changed 153 00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 1: his tune. Well, I've changed my tune because a few 154 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 1: things have happened in right. Um, Obamacare was originally scheduled 155 00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 1: to cost under a trillion dollars. It's now going to 156 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 1: cost two trillion because because of all these changes, because 157 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 1: they're not going to pay for the individual mandate, it's 158 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:18,200 Speaker 1: gonna be two trillion soon, it'll be three trillion. Right, 159 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:22,679 Speaker 1: It's gonna grow However, the alternative that five I just 160 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 1: sent you guys the poll last night of the Democratic 161 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:31,040 Speaker 1: Party of people that identify as Democrats support Medicare for 162 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 1: all that costs thirty two trillion dollars over ten years. 163 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 1: So at this point in the new world order of 164 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: we don't pay for anything, we're running our our debt 165 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 1: up to thirty trillion rapidly. I think the best thing 166 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:48,120 Speaker 1: that fiscal conservatives can do is hold on for dear 167 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:51,720 Speaker 1: life and embrace Obamacare, because what's coming after Obamacare is 168 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,880 Speaker 1: going to be devastating to our economy. While that is 169 00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:59,240 Speaker 1: some some that's some real politic right there, bless my suspenders, 170 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:04,600 Speaker 1: that is something because you told us, well you told 171 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 1: us years ago that we were ten years out from 172 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 1: single pair of healthcare. It was just gonna happen. I 173 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:13,199 Speaker 1: don't know how close you think we are now. I 174 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 1: think it happens by that wow wow and again. But 175 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 1: this is this is not rooting interest. This is just 176 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:23,800 Speaker 1: me watching guyst of our country, watching how we print money, 177 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 1: watching how we spend watching how neither of our bilateral choice, 178 00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 1: as you say, Jack, give a rip about fiscal fiscal 179 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:36,080 Speaker 1: that that's dead as a concept. And you know, I 180 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:39,199 Speaker 1: want the truth. The core, the core of conservativism is 181 00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:41,840 Speaker 1: recognizing what is. If this is what is, that's what is. 182 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:44,760 Speaker 1: I mean, whether you like it or not. Um, what 183 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:51,680 Speaker 1: are the chances anybody loses protection for pre existing conditions? 184 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:56,880 Speaker 1: Less than a five chance? So you fishing? Yeah, we've 185 00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 1: we've handed out those goodies. We've handed out protections on 186 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:03,120 Speaker 1: existing kids on the plan until they're twenty six, exchanges 187 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:06,600 Speaker 1: with taxpayer dollars available to assist you in buying those plans. 188 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,239 Speaker 1: We've handed out those good We've handed out the expansion 189 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 1: of Medicaid right. Um, those are never coming back. That is, 190 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 1: that is take back, that is the democratic platform. You 191 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 1: will lose protection for pre existing conditions. Oh yeah, yeah, 192 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 1: that's the threat right now. And you will be attacked 193 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 1: by rabid unicorns. If a CBS on the court, you're 194 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:31,680 Speaker 1: going to lose your protection. Women will become second class citizens, etcetera. 195 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:34,360 Speaker 1: And there is practically zero chance of that happening under 196 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 1: any circumstance. This is why you tune in, my friends 197 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:40,079 Speaker 1: to hear the truth. Politically, you know, that's the thing. Politically, 198 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:41,840 Speaker 1: I don't know how you combat that because Trump has 199 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:47,000 Speaker 1: said many times over. He is for protecting UH exists. 200 00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:49,680 Speaker 1: And I don't know how you combat that. Right. So 201 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:52,439 Speaker 1: what you're saying is, and this is really something. The 202 00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 1: conservative choice, the fiscally conservative choice, is to embrace Obamacare 203 00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 1: right now and to try to hold onto it. That's believable. 204 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,439 Speaker 1: I really do. I really do think that's our best 205 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:07,079 Speaker 1: bet at this point, because we can. We can patch 206 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 1: up Obamacare and limp along here. Now. The one piece 207 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:13,720 Speaker 1: of Obamacare that that if Trump is reelected and we 208 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:17,240 Speaker 1: get a conservative Congress, the one piece of Obamacare that 209 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:19,800 Speaker 1: still needs to change that would be great for liberty 210 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:23,440 Speaker 1: is eliminate the employer mandate, because right now we have 211 00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:25,360 Speaker 1: we still have an employer mandate where you know, all 212 00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 1: employers with more than fifty employees have to buy insurance. 213 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:29,839 Speaker 1: It's yotta gayoa. Get rid of that, and then this 214 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:32,840 Speaker 1: thing is no more than a high risk pool for 215 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:34,640 Speaker 1: ten million people. That's the other thing I want to 216 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 1: I want to throw it out there, guys. When we 217 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 1: passed Obamacare, we had thirty to forty million uninsured in America. Okay, 218 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 1: today we have twenty eight million uninsured in America. All this, 219 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 1: all this a lot, all this for hardly moving the 220 00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:52,280 Speaker 1: needle at all. The cost, the political capital, the rallies, 221 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 1: the fights, the rhetoric, all of this for really not 222 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:58,080 Speaker 1: moving the needle at all on the supposed goal of 223 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 1: the damn for the love of heavens.

This was a 234 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,560 Speaker 1: way to get there, and every dependent on the government 235 00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:39,960 Speaker 1: for every and it's been successful, correct, successful?
