The purpose of the conversation that we have had in this meeting is to know what we are doing to bring down the bill for the person who is sitting down tonight with a renewal notice and sees a spike in the price. Let us get back to brass tacks. We can talk about the consultative forum and engagement with stakeholders and driving down costs, but the bottom line for the person looking at the renewal notice is where they get the money. What are we doing to bring down that cost, no matter what plan the person has?
