Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, once again, I cannot say whether or not there have been studies done, because once again, it is a very subjective exercise. You have to make projections of what you think you will be saving in the future by spending dollars now. Although we agree with the general thrust that preventative dollars spent now will save you more than likely future dollars in some of your treatment and rehabilitative costs, Mr. Speaker.
