So you're not hoping for everything to be resolved and for Simcox to be found clean. You want to see him go down. At least you're honest and not parroting this fake concern crap that a lot of your buddies are.

Given the egregiously false or erroneous reporting—as well as some outright malicious lies about the status of MCDC finances that this organization has endured—the Board has decided that this year and this year only MCDC will emulate publicly-traded company standards and release MCDC’s first year audited financial statements, in addition to the normal 990 documentation.

We note that we are releasing our organizational IRS Form 990 and the additional audited financial statements on deadline, as promised, when promised. The independent auditors’ report from Salmon Beach and Associates is a clean finding, and attached to the audited financial statements.
Our total income was $418,493.00.
$112,500.00 of income was in unrestricted grants from Declaration Alliance.
Our Total Expenditures were $449,667.00
Our Program Services were $280,920.00 which was 62.47% of our total expenditures.
Our Management and General Expenses were $23,348.00 which was 5.19% of our total expenditures.

All these expenses paid were for both goods and services—including product hard costs, consulting fees, and expenditures for professional materials and services rendered.
