Two of the biggest problems that upstate New York faced in this bill were LIHEAP and the MILC program, and now both are in the bill with almost everything we wanted. |
We are beginning to sniff the possibility of real results. But the Chinese Government has convinced us that moving to a free floating currency has been a complicated matter. |
