Actually this is what makes the scam more perfect. You're covering it up by 'using' money for this, while you're actually taking more for yourself.

Oh I am? That's quite a surprise, but I'll take it. Where do I pick up my share of the scam money?
So let's break down your statement and associated premises.

1. There is a grand scam. But you can't explain it because it is so....?
2. There is a coverup. The proof of the coverup is the denial of the grand scam.
3. I'm involved and taking the money for myself. What money, I have no clue?

Sorry, not you Cheesy

(badly written sentence).
Let's say the CEO of TBF is covering it up...

I'm not blindly defending the foundation here. The crap with Charlie was ridiculous and criminal. But that was a shock to BF members also. Not having a foundation or foundations (the more the better IMO) means surrendering your rights to the ignorant whims of policy makers.
Instead of tearing down an organization that fights for bitcoin, why not start your own? The BF does not officially represent bitcoin. That means anyone can start their own.
It also means you can argue for different positions on issues.
For example, some here believe that bitcoin should be totally anonymous and/or nontaxable. A new group could be formed to push for that agenda. I would love it if this happened! To argue this you will need to hire a lawyer/lobbyist and set up some meeting in Washington. It is going to be expensive, so your going to need money from your members. These members will be backing an idea with a zero sum. The lawyers are either going to convince lawmakers that bitcoin should be exempt from U.S. law, or they are going to get nothing and like it. That is why I support the BF. They are in the best position to get something done because they take smarter positions. If someone else has a better idea, I'm all ears.
