From the transcript
To Senator Steadman's point, they've got a whole plethora of taxes that probably make this 9.4% look pretty damn attractive. You know, so I'm sitting here a little frustrated too, maybe for different reasons than my colleagues here, because, you know, there's a sense of being flat-footed here, right? You know, and being caught in between countervailing forces that we just don't have the time to really sort of dig into it. So a little bit of a rant there, Mr. Chairman, and I guess I'll circle back for a third time to either Mr. Prestidge or Mr. Mahoney. Is this about opposition to the tax itself or is this about the need to fix it?
