And a lot of that was needed. We have 168,000 new people, rapid growth, we're getting younger. Communities that were dying are growing. That's fantastic. But the other answer to that is we can't just continue to buy down the local share of property taxes and not actually deliver that relief directly to the taxpayer. (08:54–09:01)
