Having seen a few congregation mergers/closures in the past few years I believe the wt has a master plan in place to screw/rob members of their money. They shift boundaries around and move people in and out of areas so that congregations are set up to fail. Then the Kingdom Hall is sold and money sent to headquarters.
Shortly there is a need for a new building and the locals are guilted into giving once again. Ive seen this happen more than once.
