“We're talking big numbers. With just a 10 percent reduction, we can save more than $50 billion a year.”
Daniel Perry
“What we're looking at is about a 30 percent reduction in both programs per year. There isn't a lot of new money there to consider new projects, unless some of the other ones drop out.”
Kevin Blanshan
“This year we have not done a thorough enough job going through the budget to look for reductions. A 7 percent increase is too much for the increasingly stressed taxpayers in this town to handle. With less money, I believe that we would still be able to sustain the high quality schools that we have.”
Tom Fiorentino
“We've had a reduction of more than 35 percent of overall deaths from non-intentional injuries in the last couple of decades, ... On the other hand, unintentional injuries remains the leading cause of death in childhood.”
Johns Hopkins
“That's a 40 percent reduction in what we used to sell, ... We lost two of our good customers.”
Mike Marshall
“A reduction in that consistent revenue stream could imperil our expansion plans for next year and beyond.”
Ken Stern
“We are surprised by the magnitude of the earnings reduction for the full year given recent stabilization of Outback trends and very strong results at the secondary growth brands. We believe management is signaling that a full turnaround in terms of both sales and profits at the core Outback brand will take time and will perhaps be a 2007 event.”
