That is a serious misquotation. He actually wrote "Dissolve the
profit-driven scholastic chess movement". Possibly you are assuming
that all scholastic chess is driven by volunteers interested in chess
and the players. He said nothing about them. His comment only spoke
about those whose motivation is to make a profit from the scholastics.
Or alternatively are you confessing to us that the "profit-driven" are
exactly and only what scholastic chess is? That doesn't seem true to
me.
