That's why it has to be a nonprofit, because a nonprofit is required to take monies it receives and use them for the purposes for which it's chartered by the government. It can't be pocketed.

I am in the process of starting a nonprofit organization that gives rescued animals a home in a simulated wild environment and, for those who have been tested on, who are disabled, aggressive, etc., their own space to live out their days.

Under current law volunteers who are not working with an official nonprofit organization are not covered by the Volunteer Protection Act. Therefore, there are absolutely no legal protections for the average American who wishes to volunteer.

I basically believe the medical insurance industry should be nonprofit, not profit-making. There is no way a health reform plan will work when it is implemented by an industry that seeks to return money to shareholders instead of using that money to provide health care.

Now the proposal is yet again another $150 billion before we start to think about a freeze. But $150 billion spent on more government programs; monies being created to direct and what kind of jobs that Washington thinks ought to be created. Come on. I mean there is a government that can help, and the government can also hurt.

Shmazi Anthem
Shmazi, Shmazi Shmoozization,
Human race unification,
No nonprofit hesitation,
No bourgeois alienation.
We just want a Shmoozization,
Our lovely integration,
No more class gentrification,
No more one’s discrimination. Get together all the nations,
Make a Shmazi Shmoozization!
No more people’s fragmentation,
No more public urination.
Shmazi, Shmazi Shmoozization
Human race unification,
Overthrow the domination
And declare fraternization. Please, help our generation
TO become a graceful nation
No more arms proliferation
No more ugly segregation.
We will have a Shmoozization,
Making love between nations,
Bring us joy and liberation,
Shmazi, Shmazi, Shmoozization!

Enriched With Thoughts
Butt strutters...
Pushing up to the curb,
With babies in tow!
And giving up nothing,
But bad parenting skills...
For those on the weekend
Crack Head Tour.
Implanted to enhance sightseeing.
Insuring methods of suppression,
Are in full force!
Before endorsing campaigns,
To secure more 'nonprofit' funding...
Dropped into the pockets,
Of their daughters and sons!
As jobs...
Benefitting recycled poor mentalities!
To administer the continuance,
Of the blight sighted and the needs surveyed!
Someone has to make sure,
Employment is created!
Implementing the 'boosting' of good deeds,
Done for those impoverished and feeding on 'dreams'.
Mandating 'hope' as just a dope 'hit' away!
And sustained by those of goodwill!
Pimp sensations never overkill,
A diverse and growing economy of riches.
For those enriched with thoughts of maintaining greed!
And a subservience that services self destruction!
These fruits seem to be everlasting.
And there free to squeeze and juice.

For you, the state is an entity with purposes of its own that the people can be required to serve. For us the word is only a label for the arrangements by which we the people delegate to some among us responsibility for things that concern us in common.

Doo wop bop
Oh but its so tempting so delicious
When I kiss your lips
When I feel your fingertips
Cause ooh, you my love toy

Wind me up and I start to move

Whispering those little secrets

I believe in an America with a government of men devoted solely to the public interests — men of ability and dedication, free from conflict or corruption or other commitment — a responsible government that is efficient and economical, with a balanced budget over the years of the cycle, reducing its debt in prosperous times — a government willing to entrust the people with the facts that they have — not a businessman's government, with business in the saddle … not a labor government, not a farmer's government, not a government of one section of the country or another, but a government of, for and by the people.

Worth Bleeding and Fighting For
Taught to register their dreams,
With the government for safe keeping.
Now has them questioning their decisions made.
Since that life envisioned in retirement...
Has been pocketed by crooks,
Discovered cooking the books...
Just for looks and no substance to leave.
And the grieving that has begun,
Will not return a dime to anyone stunned.
Besides their livelihood and way of life taken...
Those that have done this,
Continue to lavish themselves with trips and gifts!
And 'that' is the democracy,
Worth bleeding and fighting for.
For some it is bliss...
To be that patriotic.
