    Suing a company makes no sense: it’s like suing the car after an accident instead of the driver

      That is the entire idea of the corporation, the people that own it are blameless, only the corporation is liable, and they can just dip out like this. They should have to put up a bond or something if we’re going to keep it like this. But we are going to keep it like this and then make it worse so that’s where we are.
