Sport—thank you, Senator Scarr—and kids going to school without breakfast. That is becoming an increasing problem in our country. Think about that when you talk about $130 to $160 a week. That's not a small amount of money. Then, what are we doing? We're driving mum-and-dad investors out of the private rental market. What is that going to do? That's going to mean that we are going to have fewer investment properties, and, when we have fewer investment properties—fewer rental properties—we have higher rents. The rents go up. It's not rocket science.
