I think the “self-dealing” argument against the Trump foundation is morally bogus.
There is a ton of the non-profit charity INDUSTRY that is bogus, in that much of it exists just to keep employed the highly paid professionals that work it, mostly to their benefit - their jobs - and less than ought to be in actual charitable benefits.
It should be called the non-profit charity industrial complex.
But Al Sharpton’s foundation bought his own book rights for 1/2 Million....
that’s just fine....
And that is why I always check at Google for a list of charities and their management to charitable payments ratio.
