Let me get this straight: So the administrator had no problem refusing my pro se appeal/amateur brief, and stuck with reducing my award by 90% on SoL. But the same administrator was supposed to reduce perhaps tens of thousands of claims by 90% and failed to do so?? And that is how we are ending up with only a small percentage of the award being able to be paid? I have read the Liberty Mutual response and it sure looks like the trust ignored a huge calculation, based on claims where the abuser hadonly one claim of abuse against him. And only the 25% of claims that have not been settled/paid can still be reduced? This cannot be on solid legal grounds. Someone please explain this to me. -
This is the sort of stuff that causes scouts to quit as soon as they find something more satisfying and less stressful to spend their time on. With leadership maneuvering to set this scout up for failure this hard it is without a doubt a guarantee that this scout drops before this time next year. -
That might be your area, or you're defensive. I am telling you hard fact from my district. Units that don't meet year round, that don't meet as many weeks as possible, they are failing. I can also tell you that national believes the same thing because all of the leader guides and training tell us to meet year round and meet as many weeks in a month as possible to have a healthy unit. Everyone on this site likes to complain about meeting, everyone on this site likes to complain about Scouting America being at less than 25% of it's peak size in 1970. Leadership 101: You can't maintain engagement without meeting regularly and on a schedule.

The text book answer is: CORs, the District Key 3, Members-at-Large, People registered in function roles (advancement committee members, training committee members, etc ... ). I've never seen it done by-the-text-book though. My personal opinion is evolving into the opinion that DE's never even try to run it by the text book because they don't want a committee complicating their unilateral approaches to everything.

Why the second 90% reduction? I understand the first, but I don't see where the second one is coming from.
