I believe Professor Mauser's arguments regarding the efficacy of this program. I recognize that you, as elected officials, have a substantial budget deficit to struggle with--some $48 billion this year alone, give or take. We'd like to see you working more actively on getting that number down. And any dollars that go toward a program for which the efficacy doesn't exist seems to be money that's ill spent.
