I agree with what you're seeing, it's a lot of waffling and impotence - the only argument that I've heard is that there's someone basically holding a gun to all our heads and he has to act this way to stop them from pulling the trigger.

There's always redemption that can happen, but I think he's getting pretty old and it can be anybody else to come through to fix this shit and reveal the truth.

What I have to go by as a non-vip is assume he's just profiting and making the most out of getting fucked over. It's just reality.
