the problem with such an idea is that it would cost you about 7 million dollars to buy those shares. that is a huge investment. and if you had 7 million in ownership of this company, wouldn't you want to be involved in all the inner workings and decisions management is making? you might. after all, you'd feel some sort of ownership.

does that 7 million in investment give you a controlling share? no. will you have the right to vote and over-ride jerry's vote to not issue more shares? no. would you be able to add or remove personnel as you saw fit? no.

apparently you are worried about having a return on your investment (we all are, right?). you want to see your share value increase and not decrease, right? dilution is part of the problem but its not the main problem. revenues that outpace debt is what will raise the share price. that is called profit. when the company becomes profitable the share price will rise. so, we sit and wait for the company and management to create profits. there has been much anticipation of increased summer sales and perhaps this upcoming quarterly report will show a big profit.
