Because you haven't shared ANY financial data, or the on-going process of
spending it? Meanwhile you talk as if you have, and 'can't understand'
people who say you have not.
Your comments are restricted to other's personalities or social standing [or
your own], and why you need not share information with the 'Dirt Farmer' or
in fact, with USCF members, or anyone else.

'A variety of' is a new euphemism for 'not actually' sharing the budet? lol

Its not really about you, Randy. Its about your double-talk in respect of
presenting financials. You avoid posting the Crossville budget, including
the moving financials, or any other specifics that people have requested.
Its your right to do so. But its not very credible for you to say that you
have done otherwise.
Its clear by now that no one will produce this financial material - and
these posts are reflective of the fact. Because there is no credible reason
to suppress financial information [what could it possibly be?] then we
remark upon the fact that not even would-be board members know what sort of
soup they are getting into. This is a matter of public concern in the
spending of other people's money - which goes to support chess in America.
Your slate has declared that no one has a right to know what is being done
with it!

I wrote a grant that was fully-funded for $20million a few years ago. But,
of course, this would change the basis of the point, from sharing financial
information to who is entitled to receive or withold information.
So its not just moving away from the epicentre of chess in the USA [no
matter how well utilised are the environs of NY City], its a whole new form
of pentagon-like secrecy in chess governance, wrapped and re-wrapped in
double talk.
This is of note.
