I doubt their goal was to make money.

If I owe the bank $1000 that's my problem, if I owe the bank $73,000,000 that's the banks problem.

It's yet another hole in his wallet... assuming it's even him paying for it. I'll say one thing, these troglodytes are good at just not paying for things they owe for. Whether it be fines for putting up an illegal sign, or lawyers and other service-people.

Exactly. Socialize the losses via a big faceless corporation, while consolidating the profits via donations. It should honestly be considered embezzlement.

Add it to his list of crimes. Though, fairly likely embezzlement is already on there.
