That’s absurd! Assuming 4 billion in actual startup costs, at the purchase price they could only afford to do that for…

four hundred million people. LOL.

Jesus this was a dumb transaction.

Just for perspective, the U.S. population is 300 million. Add on the 67 million population of the UK and you still have plenty of change left over.

Jesus, this was a stupid decision.
