Why should a major portion of the cost of my office visit to my GP go toward paying for his insurances? Why, if the hospital I go to screws up, are they protected legally more than I? And the list of real problems goes on and on.

Oh, I forgot. Laws are there to protect people, and since laws are written for the most part by lawyers (locally, regionally and nationally), and lawyers are people, too, then they are naturally written to protect their own most important member group. How silly of me to forget.

Until they get to the point of actually addressing the problems, I will be against any “fix” anyone comes up with ’cause it ain’t gonna “fix” anything and it will continue to steal more of my hard-earned money.

The way “non-profits” work is that the person who started it gives themselves an extremely high paying salary and benefits, pays their workers crap and treats them the same, and they constantly beg, borrow, and steal money to stay in operation.

A few years ago in San Francisco, the President of a non-profit lost her job for remodeling her kitchen with non-profit funds. The next one took a trip to Hawaii using non-profit funds while they were under investigation for the last one.

For a moment, I thought the Bush Administration would turn its sights on non-profit fraud, but they let it pass. Non-profits are as big a problem as Enron. ACORN is all the evidence you need for that.
