Absolutism again.

Nobody is saying that decisions, positions or actions need to be approved by 100% of the people. That would lead to inertia. Wait, maybe this is what you are saying? nm then.

You have a good outlook on the whole thing. It kind of reminds me of when I was in my early teens and for a little while I thought "You know this communism doesn’t sound so bad after all…. Wouldn’t it be nice if we could all?......"

Lets hope that the pressures of the IPO and its aftermath allow them to take a long term view.

agreed. I don't think there will be that much pressure on them actually. If the stock tanks, I would expect them to take it private again.
