Look, I agree that every dollar not spent on feral bureaucrats is a blow for personal freedom.

This growth of nonprofits, however, I see as another indicator of the enormous concentration of wealth in the hands of folks who really have no clue how to spend their money wisely.

How many more Frank Ghehry designed Ithegreatbazillionaire foundation art galleries to house third rate modern art does this country need? The world long ago ran out of good art to put in these things, and the gazillionaires who build them as graven images to their own egos have no idea how to usefully deploy capital in there interests of greater productivity (many of them never having been in that business before).

It is a legitimate beef. The more taxes dodged through these means the more you and I have to pay.

State can do far more damage when it has more money than necessary. It would be stupid to waste money on junks masquerading as arts, but it is less damaging than bankrolling the whole global warming scam or paying for perks of D.C. parasites, who are always busy cooking up new outrageous idea for do-gooding.

Nobody or nothing is more detrimental than over-educated uptopia-chaser on state payroll.
