Bro. Michael......
The GLoT has always had fund raiser doo-dads and ditties as far as I can remember.....but where the big problem started was ....and someone can correct me if I am wrong ....was a while back when it was determined that the GL building needed a complete new A/C system and the leaks in the roof fixed. Avenues to secure this were even to share the building with the Waco symphony....which the arts council decided to balk at. Somewhere in this timeline scenario was the Global Financial Crisis of 2008 that saw 401Ks and securities take a nosedive. The GL suffered as bad as everyone else when their junk bonds got buried in the rubbish heap. At GL conventions resolutions called upon the carpet all the Powers That Be for responsibility for all this financial confusion in and about the temple. The whos on first committees were examined as to why some high potentate were automatically placed on said boards and to those term limits. When all was said and done.....it was implied that all the sub-ordinate lodges and members were the life preserver Insurance Provider for the less than All Seeing Higher Echelon. Basically, GL petty cash has always been insured by what is in the bank....and Free handed dipping is not in any sort of a mis-conduct.....we got hit by the 2008 Crisis just like everyone else. We as in members of GL.
So, the issue here is accountability....finger pointing and Who was or was Not On First. Doubletalk. The constituency is still grumbling to have the players called out. I dont know.....(is on third.)
