Part of that was the discussion over the last 4 years. This is something which didnt just come up yesterday. There were 4 years of negotiation between the employer and the employees as to how to get an H2A wage right. We had the adverse wage for a lot of reasons. such as because of where agriculture was located and because housing wasnt available. There were a lot of things that were brought into that discussion. We know our country has changed since the creation of the first H2A law. And while there are still other benefits tied to the wage. that is why we could effectively negotiate rolling that wage back and allowing American agriculture and the employers in American agriculture to effectively look at what we were doing and strike the kind of balanced margin that is necessary. What happens?
