I totally agree it is VERY important to speak your mind – either be it good or bad. You, and for that matter everyone knows I am more than willing to speak my mind. I have no qualms with regards to telling the story like it is or the way I see it anyway. 
The problem is most wont say anything in fear of the repercussions and yes I have felt them like no other! I have spoken my mind on more than one occasion, three of which come to mind in the last three years cost me over a grand a month “EACH” in profits.
Do I care? Yes and no!
I am upset that I have lost the income, but happy that crooks have been revealed for what they were / are! I feel if I had kept my mouth shut and remained content I would have continued to receive the “acceptable to most,” but not to me handouts.
If you’re a betting person you can bet your last dollar that if “arkyt” feels something isn’t right he WILL speak up and say something! You can also bet that I will speak with passion and foremost integrity.
I wish more people would take the time to speak up when the need arises – when enough people with say so (if you will) speak their minds others will begin to take notice! If you remain content you can count on nothing but Steves sig line …
