Mr. Chairman, while it is possible for companies to duck around some of the taxes and move some around, where they pay their corporate taxes is basically dependent on where the revenue is generated and where their salaries are paid. They could not operate a mine here and have employees here and pay all their taxes somewhere else. They would have to apportion some of it, a reasonable piece of it, back to here no matter what our rates were. Thank you.
