I can say that things are a lot different today than they were during the great multi-year U.S./World recession regarding availability of non-toxic monies. If the company has a viable business plan, they should be able to borrow some decent money. But, wouldn't we luv a white knight veteran or someone to settle all the debt and pour some funds into the company. I figure that if the company has an awesome business plan, then those with money will provide the capital for the business. USMJ will not necessarily have to sell off stock to move forward. I suspect there are some wealthy hemp lovers out there that may want this company to succeed. Obviously Hippee Butter and the CityBlends operation may want USMJ to be a success in order to sell USMJ's product.
