That's exactly right. I didn't make this up. All politics is local. It's wrong for people to assume that there is an office in the nation's capital that will look after a situation in some far-off part of the country. There has to be a local presence.
Then, as you say, you hit a ceiling. There is only so much you can do, so then you get into the system of programs that you talked about.
What would you say about that system as it stands right now? Are there any big gaps still to be worked on, or is it all moving in the right direction?
