I dont' know if you know this but, every time they hire a private paid pump crew, it accumulates in SEC's documentation, on top of that a SEC auditors actually have a standard to look for "management
's illusion of control" which states that when the CEO or mgmt. make up false beliefs of driving the PPS to a certain amount like "How Kane has been telling people the target of 10 cents" for instance, this all adds up.
In simpler terms this means they get punished for fooling themselves, because when they fool themselves they fool the public, and then they get shut down.
