Good point, but to sell a dividend reduction to the street you have have to convince people that the extra funds freed up can accelerate growth. I think current management has proven they've got no growth ideas.

Yeah, gonna have to call bs on this one. Dividends pay the stockholders and allow us to do business. Everyone would be out of a job rather than just who was offloaded. Doesn’t make it hurt less, i know, I’ve been there.
