| h/t Instapundit A few years ago, Mark Steyn sagely observed, "In America today, few activities are as profitable as a ’nonprofit.’" Nothing warrants changing that assessment now. President-elect Trump has a lot on his plate if he plans to turn around the ship of state. But if it’s not too presumptuous, I’d like to add one more item to his agenda: a substantial rewrite of the laws respecting our tax-exempt sector, reining in private foundations. |

| #5 And take down the NFL for Gods sake. No need for government involvement -- the fans are handling it by walking away. |

| #4 Many of these so-called humanitarian organizations exist to further a left-wing political agenda or to line the pockets of out-of-office politicos. So yeah, reform would be good. |

| #2 Sadly, we live in times when the first thing someone thinks of for "work" is to get to a place where they can use the power of the state to force other people to give them money - instead of doing something valuable that they will purchase voluntarily. Rent-seeker nation. |

| #1 Excellent article. Please also have a look at 'non-for-profit' gov't contracting firms at DoE and DoD as well. |
