Sorry Waterblunt, I respect this is a genuine question but this is not a private conversation.
Imo not shady at all. People choose to form that opinion. Like I've said before, my background is evidence based (as a Science teacher) so I made the phone calls, spoke to many people, did my research and I formed the best conclusions I could.
My opinion only If you can believe the context that debt causes problems; that this situation started prior to gold stream; if you are careful drawing conclusions from a biased view point; if you understand that these situations etc are complex and you will very likely be drawing the wrong conclusions with your bias and limited information, take a step back and see the situation for what it is; ask more questions, etc etc well you might see it for what it is.
Anyway W I've wasted enough time on here with this and it's clearly not changed anyone's opinion so sayonara.
