and, congressman, we have a letter to you today from jasper t. he writes, dear congressman heck, i've seen a lot about the section 179 deduction for what do you say to jasper? >> yeah, jasper, that's a great question because we just worked on that very provision. the section 179 deduction allows a business to expense or write off 100% of a certain amount of equipment or real estate or something that they need to help run their business. so it's a tax write-off for businesses. for many years, that was set at a certain level. and it was recently increased as part of the stimulus package. but it was only increased for a one-year period. so every year businesses wld buy something in july, whether or not they'd be able to write it off because the decision wasn't being made by the federal government until december. and so what we recently did was we made that increased part 179 deduction permanent at the higher level. so now businesses have predictability, they have stability. and the thing is every time a business goes out and buys a big-ticket item,
