I won’t keep this going much longer. Getting back to who has the authority to put positions into place that are unfunded and to put programs into place that are unfunded, I think maybe we don’t want to go there. I’m not sure. What other forum is there for me to ask questions about who has the authority to fund programs? We approve the budget every year. I’d like to have some say in who has the authority. I think that’s part of the problem, why we’re at the $17.3 million. There are unfunded positions, there are unfunded programs, and somebody approved them along the way. It wasn’t us, so who was it? I think that’s a question that needs to be answered, Mr. Chairman.
