  1. Actually seems kind of cheap. Of course if they were running a legit biz you would need to double that amount to account for lost revenue on what they should have been accomplishing. I guess it’s a good thing they never accomplish shit after all.

  2. That’s like saying I only spent $3.06 million on explosives to undermine the foundation of my house. The total cost of damage is much, much higher.

    100 guys (with a couple of shysters?) would have stolen MUCH more than a measly $3 Million over 4 months.
