No, they sell the product for less than market value. That loss must be recouped. But I am surprised that they are filing for bankruptcy as well. The model appears sound.
Why is there so much hate for this company? So you don't agree with their business model and you label all the users as dupes. Maybe people like to gamble and really did find this shopping model entertaining? Either way, talk of making this illegal turns my stomach. If Swoopo wants to sell this service and there are customers willing to participate, who are you to interfere?
Hats off to this fellow for promoting freedom and liberty. I am glad that people are slowly starting to realize we don't have a right to tell others what they can do with their bodies. If 19 passes it will be one tiny prick in the side of the petty tyrants who believe they have a right to force others to follow their views.
I enlisted a year before 9/11 so I am just speculating here but I chose to enlist because I was done with HS and had very few prospects for a job and I knew I would just flunk out of college. So I chose the military as something to do to see the world and learn some skills that would help me in the future. The patriotism/ protecting my family/ country was a distant second.
So my theory is that kids that enlist are in the same boat as I was. They have just completed 12 years of statist indoctrination, watched all the movies celebrating war, are praised by friends and family for the idea of enlisting, and have few job prospects (especially with today's economy).
As a vet I ask that if you want to thank a vet you do so by fulfilling your duties as a citizen and demanding our leaders get the troops out of these meaningless wars at once. Thank yous and letters of appreciation and "Veterans Day" are a slap in the face to people who choose to risk their lives with the belief that it will only be done in the most dire and extraordinary of circumstances.
