It certainly does affect a very small number of people and a lot of people in this chamber. Do you think this is what the Australian public expect from us? Do you think they expect us to come in here and spend time debating amendments that, in your words, affect a very small number of people and provide a benefit to a very small number of people, most of whom earn very generous incomes? Do you think they expect you to just tick that off without looking at the impact of the cost on the budget or without thinking through the kind of benefit that's going to be offered to the people sitting around you?
