IRS laws are supposed to prevent non-profits
from being formed that provide the same services
as the for-profit sector. Why is the U.S. Government
encouraging the creation of organizations that do
not appear to conform to IRS regulations ?
non-profit does not mean low cost, free of corruption, etc.
in some cases it is now used to harbor closed door activities
while society is given the impression it is a "do good" group...
it is a shame that these new-age-non-profits are placing the
traditional non-profits in a bad light...
