There is constant talk about individuals actions and communications
being paid for and by certain groups. There has never been any proof
presented here. In an effort to clear one's name, I am wondering how
many individuals would be willing to have their financial records
audited just to clear the air? For the many times people have been
accused of being paid shills for the industry, etc., one would think
being audited would clear their good names and settle the issues once
and for all.

And who, pray tell, would do the auditing?

Even if it were done, once the results came out to show that the
people in question weren't being paid off, the accusers would simply
announce that the auditors were part of the conspiracy. You can't win
with conspiracy theorists.
