It's only money. The government will be there -- including both prez candidates! -- to give them more for their next retreat. This is why you don't write a $700bn check to cash and hand it over to corporations. But there's no way that politicians could have foreseen such abuse, right!
Oy.
440k is nothing compared to the 99 billion shelled out today.
