Allowing startups to begin as non-profits for tax benefits, only to 'flip' into profit-seeking ventures is a moral hazard, IMO. It risks damaging public trust in the non-profit sector as a whole. This lawsuit is important

The public has no idea what non-profits are and a lot of things that people call 'profit seeking ventures' (ie. selling products) are done by many non-profits.

why do people in our industry always make the assumption that everyone else are morons?

The populace understands what a non-profit is.

our industry? I know the public doesnt because I grew up among people working in non profit sphere and the things people say on here and elsewhere about what non profits do and don't is just flat out wrong.

e: i mean it is obvious, most people even on here do not seem to know what profit even is, for instance >>39563492
