It makes sense... Just look at large non-profits like March of dimes, Saint Judes, UNICEF, and let's never forget United Way. Ah, to be CEO of a non-profit. There is rampant abuse out there. Non-profit status means little to me.

There is good and bad in almost everything, and money is power. If you don't like something, don't support it with your money, be that a non-profit, a store, a breeder...whatever.
Pretty generalized statement. Our rescue has none of those things...no vehicle, no barn, and no CEO or other such paid employees.

You seem to lump all non profits into one evil group. I suggested 990s because, no matter how much you dislike things, it IS a way to measure.
