AZ- it’s obvious that history in general depends on who is doing the telling. Perhaps that is how you perceive things, and as an insider you are able to know if that is the truth or not. But from the outside, that is not how things went. NASI shocked the velt with their outlandish proposal and then met with an outcry over a number of things. One was the complete lack of accountability- down to having no names associated- and thank goodness people did not let themselves get steamrolled by NASI on that aspect.
You’re misrepresenting the facts. NASI never took money before accountability was transparent, and they said they would do it this way before there was any “outcry”.
