It is totally open ended with respect to where the money will be spent. In other words it is loose cash that we the users will be coerced into giving you with no strings attached. $20 million dollars of loose cash. It has the appearance of being a money grab for inflating paychecks and for misdirecting funds to purposes not agreed to by the users.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Nothing about the internet operations and oversight is supposed to be a cash cow. It is supposed to be operated in a public and non-profit manner. It does not take million dollar fat-cat paychecks to run the domain name registry system.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>If you persist in this action expect to be brought before an international tribunal suing to audit the books and if any misuse of monies is detected, criminal charges to be brought against those involved.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>If you want to save yourselves that headache, then post a proposed expense document with an enumeration of all the projects and paychecks involved in this plan.
