about $1 billion of nrm. we will also carry minor construction money. >> i will do some quick math. if you don't know this already you divide 60 by 5 and it is $12 billion a year. if that need is out there and we cannot execute the amount of money we've got so far, how do we not privatize the va? >> well, we don't privatize the va because we still have the largest healthcare system in the country. 170 hospitals. and our veterans are voting with their feet. let me just say, this is not a libertarian v.a. if it were, i would be giving myself a card that says veteran and i go out to the private sector and get anything i want. >> i hear you. >> that is not happening. again i fall back not on anecdote, but on the stats. veterans are happy. they are going where people speak their language and their culture. i support that. this committee supports that. >> mr. secretary i agree with , you but i go back to the example of history. if we are short on manpower, if our facilities are short and substandard and we are not making the hvac additions that we need to do, eventually the veterans are g
