In a just world the board wouldn't have approved.
In a less just world the public would be able to burn down the whole fucking site and the police turn a blind eye.
But we live in an unjust world where money is literally the only thing that matters.
The people could always go have a polite chat with the regulators. I'm sure they are reasonable chaps and willing to consider alternative outcomes.
