Gawsh! how come my EF! friends have trouble making rent? are they just
out of the loop or what?

[that was SARCASM. these idiots haven't a CLUE as to what EF! is about,
how earth first!ers operate, etc. He says that EF!'s 'leader' is 
Uta Bellinson! THERE IS NO ORGANIZATION; THAT MEANS THAT THERE IS NOT A
'LEADER'. Now maybe Bellison took money -- maybe she even did some bad
things with it, I have no way of knowing. But holding EF! as a whole
responsible would be like blaming every resident of London for the
crimes of Jack the Ripper.]

Stig, go buy a clue, they're cheap!
