Robert we had a hearing on a subcommittee which I've been fortunate enough to chair a couple weeks ago. And in that hearing, Robert Rector, who works for the Heritage Foundation, found approximately 90 programs in which eligibility depended upon having a small income. In other words, you would lose eligibility for these programs if you either worked and depending on the program, made more than $12,000, made more than $25,000, made more than $50,000, or had somebody else in the household make more than this money.
