Integrity,
I don’t think the PPA is large enough to wield any power, let alone noise, even though they do pay for press clippings once in a while. Just not a powerful enough organization, IMO.
I don’t quite understand why the big public online boys didn’t lobby harder and throw more money at this problem months back. I really think they were the only ones who could have stopped this from happening. They had the resources (i.e., money). Did they really think this day would never happen OR do they think this will somehow blow over, and they know something that we don’t ??? It amazes me that some of these companies have lost over 50 % market cap, and all they seem to be doing is bending over.
It’s all still rather incomprehensible, but unless you are in the Michael Corfman (Casino City) camp, it appears that we will all be out of business shortly, courtesy our Federal government.
