Is a Takeover a Foregone Conclusion?

Hi Everyone:

It seems like there is much talk, even from Paul himself anticipating in due time that a company will take GDNP over.  Is it not a possibility, or desireable that we just continue to grow and acquire in a space where we don't have any competition, and build an economic moat, grow the business to best in breed and spurn all takeover offers?  I am just curious why it seems like the prospect of a takeover seems almost like a foregone conclusion.  Are we not able to get big fast enough?  Or will there always be an offer tendered that we won't be able to refuse?

It would have to be
