RE:RE:buyout

RE:RE:buyoutThis company would not exist if the founder were not still in possesion of 15.7 million shares with 5 to 1 voting rights.  It should be bought out as all the other holders of the subordiante voting shares are getting the short end of the stick to finance his legacy.  All this is fine if the current CEO (his son) was delivering, but he isn't.  What he is doing is driving it into the ground so in the best interest of the share holders it should be sold or liquidated.  Thoughts?
