    this happens in hospice organizations also. the non profits pay themselves far more, and are fare more lax on wasting resources than for-profit companies who actually have to account for their behavior.

    but you still get people who think non-profit == good peoples. no, just no.

      Non-profit still means they can make a profit, they have the freedom to move the bar and give their executives extra pay while still technically not making extra money

      Well regulated non-profits would be better than well regulated for profit, but in the current capitalist economies where both are undertegulated they end up being the same thing. Especially when all the big companies get tax breaks so they end up the same as a non-profit as far as taxes collected are concerned.
