They claim that they've made around $9M in fees this year, so in theory they can probably swallow a $5M loss.

As long as some portion of that $5M eventually goes towards licensure and bonding, or is returned, I'm counting it as forward progress to have that money seized.

I don't know the likelihood of that honestly but I would certainly be more ashamed of my own government than already this month if it was simply "appropriated" and not returned or counted.
