Yes, Jason, Carol has created a very one-sided relationship here, and to ask us to buy directly from her is laughable. WE are not the reason the company has failed to keep the money they have raised from billions in dilution. WE are not the reason the Audit hasn't come out yet; thus, giving us no idea whatsoever where the money is, what is was used for, how much is left.
If anyone buys shares directly from the company, they are in my opinion, only adding to the pile they already hold that Carol is not being a good steward over!
