From the transcript
It's about $300 to $350 million each year are dispersed through regional corporate dividends, elder benefits, or other direct benefits. So it's a sizable amount of money circulating in our economy. I'm told to wrap it up, which is really lucky because I'm at the end and then none of you can rebut any of these statements. So, but you can find me after to argue. Thanks.
