Every day, excessive delays and denials from big insurers keep patients from accessing
the care they need.
And when care is urgent, these delays can be disastrous.
These practices cost billions in wasteful spending, driving up costs for American families.
But while big insurers put up barriers, America's hospitals and health systems are in your corner.
Navigating endless reviews and appeals to get you the care you need when you need it
most.
It's time to curb these harmful practices and put the focus back on patients.
Brought to you by the Coalition to Strength in America's Health Care.

Be advised the content of this program has been documented to prevent and even cure liberalism
and listening may cause you to lean to the right.
And now, coming to you from the full suite Wealth Studios, here is your conservative,
but not bitter host Todd Huff.
Yes my friends, we are on day.
It's hard to believe.
This is day 6 now of our special series that's just giving folks a framework for how to
discuss politics and again, not to repeat myself, but we have people tuning in at different
times.
Everyone is not able to get every program, which we'll let it slide on here my friends.
But if you miss something, you can always go to the website.
I'd say the best thing to do is to sign up for the inner circle.
It's totally free.
You'll get all the information emailed to you, including some deeper dives, some additional
content that we don't have time to get to on the program.
All you have to do is text the word truth to 317-785-1030-317-785-1030.
So we're just going through this, my friends, to give folks a framework, to give people
the opportunity when you have conversations or not even that.
It's just to think about things clearly.
We've laid a lot of the foundation for how we've gotten to this point.
We've talked about truth, the nature of truth, what truth is.
We've talked about human nature, we've talked about power, we've talked about incentives.
And all this is building to give us, again, a framework of prism through which we can
view the politics, the political issues of the day.
And that's what we're doing, and I appreciate you joining us, my friends, as we take this
very important journey together.
More folks need to know these principles.
You know, we used to teach these things or versions of these things in this country,
and now we don't.
Now we teach that America is a terrible place that capitalism is evil, and that sort
of stuff, my friends, we don't want to let that continue to fester and grow.
That will metastasize, and that will be dangerous and even deadly to the host nation here,
the United States of America, or anywhere that adopts that way of thinking.
So that's where we're headed today.
I guess I should say we're going to talk about the purpose of government.
And I'm going to, again, lay the foundation here, get us caught up and full speed ahead.
We go today, my friends.
Let's talk about something really quickly here that's also important.
That's your money.
You worked hard for it, but friends isn't working hard for what you believe in at 48 financial.
They specialize in biblically responsible investing.
That means they screen out companies that do not align with your faith and your values.
They'll help create a plan that fits your goals and your purpose.
The best part is that they'll show you how your current investments stack up against
your values.
Maybe they stack up really well.
Maybe they stack up okay, maybe they stack up terribly, but this assessment will let
you know that my friends, all you have to do is head on over to four eight financial.com
slash Todd, again, that's four eight financial.com slash Todd, take the quick and easy assessment,
and you'll find out to what degree your investments align with your values.
Four eight financial helping you align your money with your mission.
Okay, so the purpose of government, so we've gone through some of these things.
We've talked about truth.
We've talked about human nature.
We've talked about incentives.
We've talked about power.
And as you begin to think about these things, and as you begin to think, okay, I understand
the objective nature of truth, truth is what is.
And we need to recognize that.
And part of recognizing that means that we understand and accept our human nature.
Our human nature is one that has incredible potential.
We're made in the very image of God himself, and God is absolutely amazing.
And we have just a little bit of that in us, our creative natures, our ability to work
and focus on tasks to love and raise families.
I mean, there's a lot of that that's out there, a lot of good, but we're also fallen.
This is where I would encourage you, if you haven't already, to study the scriptures,
because that gives you a glimpse into the true depravity of humanity.
And once you understand and accept that, you also begin to understand that humanity responds
to incentives, since we're not idiots, although a lot of people have seemed to have given
away their ability to think, their responsibility to think.
The truth is, is that humanity is smart enough when there are rules that are designed
a certain way.
We find a way to minimize the impact of those rules on us.
That's not even all bad.
That's just smart, right?
That's intelligent.
It's the reason why people have accountants to lower their tax obligations and liabilities
and so forth.
And it's the reason why people just respond.
We talked about some of these things differently.
So now, once we kind of understand those things, and again, if you want more information on
those things, we've covered those the past five days now, the past five days, this is
day six.
You can just go back and look or listen.
So now the next question is, what is government actually supposed to do?
I may even want to take this a half a step further backwards, my friends.
I might want to start by saying, what, why is government even required?
Now that may seem like a radical question, but some people have it.
And listen, there, there's nothing wrong with asking questions, right?
The side that doesn't want debate are the ones who want to silence questions.
They're the ones that penalized you in 2020, or shortly thereafter in 2021.
If you had questions about the 2020 election results, these are the same folks who came
screaming at you in 2020, also, when you simply asked questions about COVID policies.
When you ask questions like I did on this program, why, if a virus is smaller than the
holes in the cloth masks, why are we, or any, really, any material?
Why do we think that's going to prevent us?
I understand, spittle and that sort of stuff.
But a lot of people thought that they were immune to getting the virus and so forth.
It just doesn't, it doesn't make sense.
It doesn't add up, but they don't want questions.
See, questions are a good thing, especially if you're pursuing truth.
If you're pursuing truth, sometimes we have to ask questions that may even sound offensive
to the, to certain people, but it's how we get to truth.
That's why no question offends me and it won't.
Of course, there are people who ask questions to try to make a point through the asking
of questions.
That's a little bit of a different scenario.
If you're truly pursuing the truth, you're going to ask difficult questions.
So you can ask, why do we need government?
Well, my friends, we've talked about human nature.
We've talked about the condition of the human heart.
We've got history to basically support what we've talked about or more importantly, what
the Bible says about human nature.
It's not good.
There's been a lot of bad things that have happened on planet Earth at the hands of people.
And so, the truth is, is that people need to have some degree of law and order.
You don't want there to be complete and utter chaos and anarchy.
You don't want the rules of the game to be, what do they say, might makes right, right?
Just to get the biggest, strongest, meanest, baddest people around to go, to go around and
basically take whatever they want, pillage towns and abuse people and take property and
all that sort of stuff.
You have to have some semblance of law and order.
That is a good thing.
And when God envisioned, if that's even how God behaves, but when God had a vision for
Earth, of course, He knew what was going to happen, He wants there to be order.
He doesn't want there to be complete chaos and tumult and so forth.
And so law and order is a good thing.
But we also know by talking about the nature of humanity and the history of government.
We also know that power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
And so we know that at the other end of that spectrum, that continuum, you've got a
heavy handed government that controls everything that we do.
And that's not good either because that's abused.
That's used to beat people down.
That's used to oppress.
That's used to do a lot of bad things.
And we've seen that happen a lot over the course of history, including a lot in the 20th
century when, well, communism was rampant.
Big government was rampant.
You had the Soviet Union and so forth.
Anyway, so the founders understood that we want law and order, but we want, we want to
have the, how do I frame this correctly?
You want to have the biggest government, excuse me, the smallest government that can
create the correct balance of law and order and liberty.
And that's what they sought to do.
In fact, if you know the history of this country, you know that there were a couple.
There were two attempts.
The first attempt came when the founders framed the articles of confederation and they realized
that they did not give the federal government enough centralized power to really handle
some of the problems that they had to deal with.
And so along came the constitutional convention and they gave the government a little bit more
federal power so that people, the government could handle problems that arose in the nation.
So that's how we got, I guess you could say version 2.0, the constitution, but again,
the smallest government possible to give you the law and the order and the safety and
the protection that you need.
Now, the government can't protect us from everything, but it certainly has a responsibility
to protect us against foreign enemies to say the least and to provide some structure,
law and order to make sure that people are not simply having the rights trampled upon
having their property taken, those sorts of things.
And so along comes the government and so that's the space the government is supposed to
fill.
Now I would say modern politics rarely even asks that question, what is the government
actually supposed to do?
They don't even ask the question.
They just again, as we've talked about over the past several days, they give a bunch of feelings
and emotions and say, wouldn't it be nice if we could eliminate this problem from the
earth and let's have the government do it?
And the government obliges because that of course gets people's votes, that gets politicians
more power, more notoriety, more opportunity to be able to stand up there and pontificate
about all the great things that they could do.
If only you would just elect them.
If only you would give them a little bit more of your tax dollars.
If only you would allow them to take a little bit more from the wealthiest Americans.
If only you get up a little bit more of your freedom and you trade it for their protection,
you will finally be safe and utopia will be reached.
That my friend is a lie straight from the pits of hell.
It is unattainable and unachievable yet because, you know, a lot of this may stem, may
stem from the fact that we were created to live in that state of perfect harmony, not
because of a government that exists, but because of our initial relationship in the garden
with God.
And we yearn for that.
I think we yearn for a retina, we yearn for a return to that.
And that's what God has said in motion to eventually restore that.
He will make all things new.
This takes some time, especially from our perspective, our earthly perspective.
And I think that that's maybe a reason why there's a natural longing for this, but yet
the only one who can achieve that is God, not a bunch of people who say, hey, I'm from
the government and I'm here to help.
That is not the way to get there.
And so instead of debate that talks about the role of government, what it's actually
even supposed to be doing, what it actually can achieve and attain and so forth, we debate
about who gets what?
That's a big thing, right?
You're going to vote for Democrats and you're basically voting for Robinhood.
You're voting for someone to take from the rich and give to the poor and that's considered
a noble thing to do.
If you don't talk about the fundamental purpose of government and some of these deeper
ideas, you end up arguing about who pays for what?
What benefits we're getting and who pays for it is usually somebody else, right?
If it wasn't that someone else should pay for it, we wouldn't even have a need to think
that we should use government like this because we would pay for ourselves, but we come
up with these ideas that someone else owes us something for reasons no one can actually
explain.
They try to, they try to blame people and say the reason that the wealthy owes you this
is because they've built their empires upon you and so forth and all these stories, all
these narratives, they get attention and leftist circles, but for the responsible, for the
people who want to take control of their own lives, they don't fall prey to this sort
of nonsense.
They also debate which group deserves help.
This is where the power of identity politics gets really increases its power, I guess, because
you start dividing people based upon superficialities or socioeconomic status and you can quickly
begin to see how this becomes a very energized debate.
You've got a poor race of this group of people and a wealthy group of that race of people
and it's just you can harp against the one and blame them for the difficulties and challenges
of the other group and the other group likes to believe that because whatever the group
is, you notice I'm not even using, I'm not using race here because it doesn't matter
what the race is.
This is how politicians manipulate us.
This is how they control the narrative and actually keep us from even asking some of these,
some of these more poignant and important questions.
Politics becomes more of a competition over resources and they convince us a lot of times
that the pie, the amount of goodies that exist in the world is a fixed amount.
They don't take into account that capitalism actually grows the pie and of course if
they do take it into account, they tell you how disproportionate it is but what they
don't tell you is how much bigger of a chunk we all get living in this prosperous nation
than the vast, vast, vast amount of humanity, numbers of people who've lived before us.
This is what it becomes and government was not created.
Hear me say this.
If you didn't hear me say any of those other words which you missed out, if you didn't,
but hear me say this, government was not created to manage everyone's outcomes.
That was not created to get back at some mythical boogie man that people erect as the individual
or the group who is responsible for their particular difficulties.
That doesn't mean that there's not times when people directly and fringe upon your rights
and property and those sorts of things, that's why we actually have a government to have
that law in order to create a system of justice so that people are not taken advantage of
and not abused and so forth.
But beyond that, just living our lives, the government is not created, was not created,
is never intended to have a role in managing outcomes for people.
That's what it's become today and it is a dangerous thing.
My friends are truly, truly dangerous thing.
So a little pause here, I'm a little hot in the studio today.
You know, it was cold yesterday, it was cold.
I turned up the heat.
I don't like to do that, especially when it's been in the 70s.
Turned up the heat.
Now I got it too hot in here.
I'm just not feeling it today.
I am as far as what I'm talking about, but just it's stuffy and I don't like it.
So I got to take a pause though.
Quick pause here, friends, if you're living with discomfort, if you're tired of living
off prescriptions and managing the side effects, you're not alone.
A lot of folks are looking for something natural they can trust.
That's why I want you to check out Christopher's organic botanicals.
It's a family run, cradum company and it's rooted in truth, tradition and transparency.
A partner directly with farmers in Indonesia, a lab test, everything before it ever reaches
your hands, no hikes, no hype, I should say no synthetics, no funny business, just
the real thing done right.
The horror stories that you've heard about, cradum, that I've alluded to on this program
because it's out there and I want to address this head on because it is.
And if you research, you might see, yeah, there's some bad consequences of this.
Friends look into what that is, it's a combination phrase I'm trying to use here, a combination
of shady sellers that are selling synthetic garbage that isn't real cradum at all.
They've made it into something that it's not and they've created a really bad reputation
for cradum.
And so do your research, if you're convinced that this is something that's worth trying,
you can start with Christopher's cradum starter pack, use coupon code Todd Huff, you'll
save 10% on your first purchase.
Again, the website is Christopher's organic botanicals.com as Christopher's organic botanicals.com
truth, tradition, transparency, my friends, all right, so let's queue this up so that we
can take a break here.
So I before that last segment, I ended by saying government was not created to manage outcomes.
Government was made to do the things that we've talked about, to protect us from enemies,
to protect our rights, to give us a system of justice, of law and order, to create a
scenario, a series of circumstances whereby people are able to live freely.
Their rights are protected and they can pursue their dreams and ambitions, lead their lives
as they want to, as they decide to do that, worship, whomever they wish, whatever they
wish, and to not have any interference from the government in doing these sorts of things.
That's what the government is supposed to do.
So I need to take a time out, last to say today, my friends, as you well know, I've loved
this series.
And again, we're probably going to pause it with everything going on and talk specifics
on some issues, but we're sticking with it.
This is day number six of our series to help give a prism, a framework to view politics
through, which I think is greatly needed.
Time out is needed here in the studio.
You're listening to get served.
I've not been to talk about host Todd Huff back in just a minute.
Every day, excessive delays and denials from big insurers keep patients from accessing
the care they need.
And when care is urgent, these delays can be disastrous.
These practices cost billions in wasteful spending, driving up costs for American families.

Okay.
Now, what is the government supposed to do?
We've hit on this a little bit.
I want to spend a little bit more time digging here, hitting some of the high points.
They are supposed to protect citizens from, or it is, I should say, supposed to protect
citizens from foreign threats, establish law and order, protect individual rights.
Notice what I didn't say there.
I didn't say establish them.
I didn't say create them.
I said protect them.
Enforce contracts.
Right?
That's another thing that I think we all know we don't think about it that way, but if
two people reach an agreement, this is what the court system is for, and one side doesn't
fulfill the contract, or there's the dispute about what it actually means when it comes
to some particular set of circumstances.
The government is tasked with fixing that or resolving that difference of opinion.
And then just provide a stable framework for society.
Now, if you look, a lot of these, well, a lot of these things, our government is not
doing.
Most of the fundamentals, by the way, is the government, when we had open borders, was
the government protecting its citizens from foreign threats.
When we had cities burning to the ground, was our government establishing law and order.
When we had the government colluding with social media companies and big tech to get information
or to try to silence the speech of certain individuals on some of these social media
sites, is that the government protecting your right to free speech and your individual
rights, that they provided a stable framework for society.
I mean, yes, in a large part, in large part, we have historically done these things.
But if you look at how some of these states have been run, or how the federal government
has been run by the extreme lunatic radicals over the course of the past, I don't know,
we'll say 50 years, 50 to 100 years, even, that's not always been the case.
It's not always been evident.
But government creates the conditions, or helps create the conditions for freedom to
actually thrive and grow.
And when it doesn't do it, when it doesn't do that basic task, your freedoms begin to
suffer.
And sometimes, sometimes we don't connect the two, or people don't connect the two.
That government is, it's abdicating its responsibilities, its abdication of its responsibilities.
We don't necessarily, or some people don't necessarily see that as a direct infringement
upon their liberty.
But that's what effectively happens.
That's what government's supposed to be doing instead.
The left wants it to be used to interfere or manipulate the outcomes of people's lives.
But even if they aren't capable of doing those things, and they're not, to be able to
tell a constituency or a base that you can do that, I mean, it's appealing to some people.
It really is.
It sounds so good.
It sounds like, you know, to people who don't want to take responsibility, or who don't
know any better, who've been lied to, who've been told that someone else is the cause
of their problems and so forth.
And listen, sometimes people can contribute to our problems.
Sometimes our problems just happen, right?
There are things that just happen.
Sometimes it's our fault.
We need to go look in the mirror and say, this is the role I played in this.
That's not the case every time.
Certainly, that's not the case.
I mean, it wasn't the case for the, if you're familiar with the book, A Job in the Bible,
which is the oldest book, it's believed, well, when you look at the, well, it's very old.
How would, what does say that?
I don't want to get into that whole discussion.
But when you look at, when you look at life, it's easy to blame other people.
You don't like accountability.
Again, that goes through our human nature.
It's easier to blame someone else.
Government's job is to protect the playing field, not decide the score.
You know, I have, I've been around sports my whole life.
I started playing football in second grade.
In fact, my brother for Christmas had gotten my dad.
This is pretty cool.
I can't tell you the name of the company because I don't know because he got it.
I did not.
But whoever it is, you can send them old VHS tapes and they can digitize it and they
create an app or whatever.
I've created an app where you log in and you can watch on your phone, digitize, I'm trying
to say this the right way, digitize the VHS tapes.
And when I was a kid, my grandpa, my mom's dad, he was, he was like a dad.
My dad was like a dad too.
I had a wonderful, I had wonderful people that had been involved in raising me.
But my grandpa was a young grandfather.
I don't know.
He was in his, around 40, early 40s maybe, grandfather.
And so he was highly involved, going to all of our games, recording a lot of our sporting
events and played football since second grade.
I think you could play basketball when I was a kid in third grade and I played all the
way as long as I could.
I did basketball through high school, I played football through college, I always just love
sports.
I did.
Some people don't like it.
That's fine.
But I did.
Ran track a little bit.
I played baseball when I was younger, baseball, got a good friend who's a huge baseball
fan.
Baseball to me as a kid, I've actually grown to like it more, I think, as an adult.
I'm still not like a hardcore fan, but I enjoy watching good baseball, especially
in person.
I've heard on TV sometimes, but man, you go to the ballpark, it's really nice.
The weather's great.
It's just a nice experience.
But baseball was not enough action for me back in the day anyway.
What matters here is to say after I graduated and got older, I coached, I've coached football
a little bit, I've coached basketball, fair amount, I've coached soccer, a fair amount
which I never thought I'd say.
When I've left, I haven't left football, but I have left and basketball.
When I say that line, government's job is to protect the playing field, not decide
the score.
That's kind of the role of an official, right?
You're supposed to make sure that kids follow the rules out there on the basketball court.
I had to interject myself in a couple of near fights in the league I officiated a couple
of times.
I know that it would have gone to blows, but it got really intense and a couple of guys
went after the other person and shoving and I separated them and that sort of stuff.
So you're to protect the playing field, the court, whatever, not decide the score.
That's the job of the government.
My friends is not supposed to manage everyone's life.
It's not supposed to somehow engineer a quality of outcomes.
I don't even know what that means.
I remember, I do remember talking about this on the show.
May, first of all, how in the world do you do this?
What do people think government can do?
The amount of magic that people think the federal government has is mind-boggling to
me, but nonetheless, people still believe this.
I remember during the presidential debate, this must have been in 2020.
Yeah, it was 2020 because they didn't know, yeah, it was 2020, 2016.
It was four-old white guys in a Clinton, including sexy, sexy, sexy Martin O'Malley, that was
2016.
2020 was a big field and the power brokers in the Democrat party after the South Carolina
primary all got together and tried to force everyone out and basically coalesce around
president bribery.
They thought he had the best chance of winning, but I remember when they were debating
and I remember looking at some of the numbers because it was a big field.
I remember seeing this guy had seven minutes of talking.
This guy had 17 and I remember coming on this program even and saying, how does a
Democrat party who can't even guarantee equal amounts of time on a debate stage for whatever
10 or 15, whatever many candidates they had, how can they possibly guarantee a quality
of outcomes for people?
How can they ensure that everyone gets paid what they're worth and all this kind of stuff?
It's just crazy talk.
My friends, it's not the purpose of government.
They can't even manage the Democrat party or any political party.
They can't even guarantee equal talking time during a debate.
Time out here for me, my friends.

Welcome back, my friends.
I hope you've enjoyed.
I love this.
I love talking about the things that are happening every day too.
Don't misunderstand me.
But I really have a huge interest in talking about these bigger principles.
It is such something that's just lacking in our society and our culture today.
By the way, just anything that requires any degree of depth is overshadowed a lot of
times.
We're so used to sound bites, we're so used to one liners, we're so used to watching
people who are an inch deep and a mile wide, they tell us they know everything about
everything as they run for office, but yet they can't even go beneath the surface.
I had a friend tell me he was at an event and there were there was people there speaking
or a part of a panel and some people that you might know, they're in the conservative
space.
And I'm not going to name names.
I'm just going to share a story.
People who are just say relatively well known or at least somewhat known.
And they were asked a softball question about something in pilot.
I don't remember the specific answer or the specific question, but he said that they
just totally whipped on the question.
And it's just interesting because it's people who you would see or hear talking a lot.
And yet you ask a question that has any amount of thinking required or depth and some
people swing and miss because that's just not what's out there.
And I know that's not what a lot of people want, but I think if you talk about it in
a way to put it into modern terms and just have an interest in these things, I think people
want to hear it.
Maybe I'm wrong.
I don't know.
Anyway, we should be able to give an answer and explanation, a thoughtful response to
some of the things that are out there today.
I'm telling you that we have reasons to believe the things that we do.
What's the, I heard Norman Geiss on.
I want to confuse Christianity with politics.
So I'm going to be careful here, but just Norman Geiss or Christian Apologist, I read,
used to read his books a lot.
And he had written somewhere, maybe multiple times, he had written, they have good questions
talking about the skeptics and the doubters.
We have good answers.
I don't have all the answers, but we have good answers to some of the questions.
Why aren't we sharing it?
And that's the same way I feel about some of these important concepts.
So why aren't we explaining this and shouting this from the rooftop, talking about the
role of government here today, friends, let me ask you a question.
Would you rather take two salty, soft gels a day or spend hours in your doctor's office
talking about your high cholesterol?
I know what I choose and I like my doctor, it's a good friend of mine, actually.
But salty is an all natural, clinically proven dietary supplement that lowers cholesterol.
There's no prescriptions, no doctor's visits, not a drug, none of that.
All you have to do is take two salty, soft gels a day.
That's all it takes to take care of your heart's health.
So salty.com, S-O-L-T-E-A, use promo code Tide, you're going to save 50% my friends, 50%
off your first purchase, if you got to get a three month supply, but it's not, I'm telling
you, it's probably less than you think it is.
That's my guess.
But you're going to say 50% on your first three month supply and get free shipping to
boot, salty.com, S-O-L-T-E-A, promo code Tide.
All right, so we talked about what government's supposed to do, we touched on what government's
not supposed to do, is not supposed to manage lives, is not supposed to engineer some sort
of way that we're all getting any quality of outcomes, how is that even measured?
How is that even remotely possible?
How do we know when we get there, even if we can, do those sorts of things?
That's not designed to redistribute wealth between certain groups of people.
How would they determine that?
Why would they determine that?
Why do they think that they should insert themselves?
I remember Walter Williams who used to fill in for the late great Rush Limbaugh Walter
Williams also, well, he would, he would talk about economics, he was an economics professor,
somewhere in the, I want to say in Virginia, somewhere at a college.
And just a brilliant man, and he used to ask the question, why do we think, he said,
you wouldn't think of walking up to some guy on the street, putting your hand in his
back pocket and taking money out of his wallet.
But why do we think that we can elect politicians who do that very thing?
Why do we think by having an instant one degree of separation?
I'm not going to go do it, take it out of your pocket, but what I'm going to do is I'm
going to elect somebody who's going to take the money out of your pocket and put it
in mind.
Why do we think that that's a moral thing to do?
And at some point, as he pointed out taxation is, is theft.
Government does not exist to solve every problem.
It never can do that.
If we give government the authority to do that, if we assume government has the power
in the ability, we're giving them way too much power to do that.
And that's a frightening place to be as a country.
Government should not be in the business of doing things like guaranteeing income or
housing, educational outcomes, healthcare outcomes.
It's not possible to do these things.
They certainly should be working to create a society where people have options where
there's competition in the marketplace so that these things are as affordable as possible.
But without trying to guarantee them, the minute government tries to guarantee something,
that's when it becomes an entitlement.
It becomes less available to the public.
It becomes harder to get.
It becomes regulated.
It becomes more expensive, whatever.
It never works the way.
It never works the way that they tell us.
The more government tries to control the less freedom that we have, that's the trade
off, my friends.
We talked about trade off yesterday, but that's the trade off.
I've got to run out of time here.
Thanks for listening SDG.
