When you capitulate they always come back looking for more.

You give them your lunch money once, you'll be giving it to them forever.

Then when they reach the adult age, it's "Nice looking university you got there, it would be a shame if something were to happen to it . . ."

Spend 250M on legal and PR matters. If it works, much better outcome at half the price.

The bright side is that this is a decent formula for dealing with oil companies or pharma.

Would also go after the evangelical churches on tax compliance.
