I mean, if you're talking about like the gas tax or something is a dollar amount per gallon. Now, that dollar amount stays flat even as inflation eats away at it. So, for instance, at the federal level, We haven't increased the gas tax since 1997. That buys 75% less today than it did back then. So I think you can make that argument on something like the gas tax, on a sales tax that's already perfectly hedged to inflation. (15:11–15:15)
