I will agree with him that the entertainment industry itself is rife with "creative accounting" and various things that fuck people out of money. Also, Chris Doddis for sale and is corrupt. However, he is free to finance his own project, distribute how he sees fit and make his own money outside the system. Just like if you are a construction worker who works for a union and you are sick of the union you are free to leave, start your own construction company and do your own thing.
