what's been a real learning for me is that 95% of the nets are given away through the global fund. and there are cases when it makes sense to give away these nets. and, in fact, i was visiting this man four years in a row and i've watched him go from skin and bones, $6 a month, endemic and perennial malaria to malaria-free where he's growing this maize. the last time i visited him for the first time he had a mattress. "how old are you?" sleeping forever on a mud floor. and he said, "i'm 66 years old." first time in your life. that's where -- that's where these issues are complex, because he was given a net, he knew how to use it, his life was changed. there's room for innovation, experimentation with what it would take to sell the nets to a certain percentage of the population while recognizing giving away is also -- can work. the issue for me is can you move those aid flows to invest in africa entrepreneurs but then build the solutions themselves? >> that's not a private sector solution. that's using a lot of government money. the big picture here what we're saying, is there a role

the net change we estimate close to zero. that is the combination of a number of significant flows of people as was the case for the first estimate we did for this committee several weeks ago when we explain the net change in that proposal represented a combination of a number of different flows and i think phil will have some numbers to offer about the breakdown. i will speak to why a low penalty has the effect it does. the last thing i will tackle is the question of the public plan. as you noted, we wrote in our report that the provisions for the plan did not have the substantial effect on the number of enrolled exemptions. we think that there would be an effect from the introduction of an additional competitor in some insurance markets that are highly concentrated. that is a little effect. to have a more substantial effect to a public plan on costs, one would need to empower the plan in some way that makes a more distinct from the plan -- insurance plans that are currently operating. a significant share of current insurance
