Default Re: My take on the \'dump the skins fiasco\'

I can see a similarity between this situation and the Athenian Empire and the Delian League. After decades of paying Athens to provide defense the members of the Delian League fond themselves basically clients since they had could no longer defend themselves versus Athens or others. Similiarly, after years of having Party Poker provide advertising and building a player base the other Party skins don't have independent platforms and the "fish" to go it alone.
