    And I agree she has changed a little bit, when at Dunbar she had a big portion of people 'escape' and run away (how much more efficient and productive could they have been if those people had stayed?). It doesn't sound like they have had too many people bail on the Colony except Burt and Riley, and maybe if you count those who have left the Colony to be based out of Dunbar too but that is sort of a gray area.

    Th thing that hasn't changed and again is the very reason I don't like her as a person/character is that she is still only looking out for herself. She does talk to Pegs, but mentions to Pegs that it might be better if some of the Colony members left so that the food and water would go longer (i.e. more for her and less for them). Look at this vs the contrasting method of Michael and Burt when they were still in the tower. They were running out of food and water, so they started rationing it out, to the point that everyone was complaining about how little they were getting, but everyone was still getting some and everyone got the same; each person was equally important.

    There may be some benefits to CJ's methodology, but I think the cons far outweigh the benefits, and those cons become most evident when the crap hits the fan... and I think we are getting there soon.
    I think you may be take a private conversation out of context. She sound more frustrate then want people to leave. To me its seem she was laid out all the option that were available, ever ought they wouldn't be taken, out to Pegs.
