I don't look at non-profits any differently than for-profits.

I’m sorry.. but that’s asinine. There are huge differences in them.

The CEOs make bank for both.

You are not going to get a qualified person to run a non profit hospital system for 50k a year. Not 100k. Yes you are still going to have to pay the top people.

Just look at the United Way’s 990. Susan B Coleman breast cancer researchers, Red Cross, Goodwill, Feeding America, Habitat for Humanity, YMCA… they are paying their high ups large salaries too.

The term "nonprofit" is a grift in many situations. I have no additional emotional attachment to any hospital who files as a non-profit.

If you see a non profit organized or operated for the benefit of private interests, report them to the IRS. They do watch non profits like a hawk in their TE/GE section. You wanna see a hell of a penalty? Look at the failure to file penalties for late filing of a 990.

For a large 501(c)3, it’s $120 per day, up to a maximum of $60,000, for an organization whose gross receipts exceed $1,208,500. That’s an attention getter if they are lazy with their filing.
