And so when you're talking- State budget?
State budget.

But at the end of the day, if you're going to say this estate's sponsored and we're only going to give out two or three licenses and we're going to give them out to our friends,
that have given tons of campaign money, right?
Then it's corrupt.
It's crony capitalism to the max, right?
It doesn't improve people's lives.
