This letter is a riot. My favorite line: “One would expect such deportment from scalawags, but not you noble nabobs of

He complains about the lack of profits but buys more. Clealrly, he has an agenda and isn't just fulminating for the grandstand.

You have a company that is clearly mismanaging return that should be going to the shareholder, and keeping it for themselves. Just like the Floyd song.. it's called "ride the gravy train."
