Well, you know, like a lot of folks, I've been at home with my family watching what's been going on our state and in our country. And I just felt like everything was backwards and folks are working harder and harder for less. There were a lot of promises made to Texans in the last election about there's going to be some focus on lowering their costs, making it easier for them to get ahead. I think those promises have certainly not been fulfilled. In fact, it's been the opposite. They've made it harder on folks. They've raised folks costs. (00:28–00:39)
