Just because it's non-profit doesn't mean it's not about money.
Non-profit doesn't mean the board/CEO/etc aren't getting paid HUGE salaries..
Plenty of non-profits give a lot of money to employees. There is nothing stopping non-profits from paying exorbitant sums to their employees, and executives often do get paid exorbitant. Non-profits mean they don't pay out to investors, but they are usually used as a grift to get people to work for less so the top people make more money and do fundraising on their pet projects.
non profit does not mean low salaries. They pay themselves enough to just run a little red ink so they can cry to the state.
PSA:Non profits can be as greedy as any other organization.Typically the money goes to wages for the leadership rather than profits to the owners.
Although they are technically a non-profit, the people that run it are probably getting nice salaries off of the hard work of others.
Even non-profits provide a 'profit' to employees in the form of a salary. It's not like they all work for free.
Non profits don't give extra leftover revenue to employees, so it's still a bullshit statement.
You're thinking about the wrong thing. It's not about salaries for staff. The fact that it's a non-profit means no corporate taxes. That's where the profits go into the pockets of management, practically.
What's wrong with being a tax-paying non-profit?
