Charities: Solvers Or Exploiters Of Problems?

 The exploitation of animal cruelty and dog fighting have been easy money makers for a number of animal organizations and animal advocates. They have done everything they can to milk animal suffering and pain to legally line their own pockets. Their selfish world of greed, selfishness and exploitation is only one window into the massive fraud and exploitation that goes on in the nonprofit universe. This is known from first hand experience, and it is what opened my eyes to the massive fraud that exists in far too much of the nonprofit world.

The nonprofits that profess to direct people to responsible charities are essentially worthless because they do nothing to examine the efficacy of what charities actually do. Without critical examination of the actual work and programs of nonprofit organizations and of what they profess to do, there is no way to know whether or not they are worthwhile and effective. Far too many charities are nothing more than deceptive arms of for profit entities. Far too many charities are about little more than feeding doses of feel goodness b.s. in exchange for money. Far too many charities lull the public into thinking serious problems are  addressed, whereas the reality is that serious problems are exploited by them.  

There are nonprofits that are above board. But the predators, the exploiters, the vultures are common and operate often as legal entities, even as respected entities.

Name the issue. Plastic pollution. Sustainable fisheries. Dog fighting. Animal cruelty. Rain forest protection. Wildlife. Child poverty and exploitation, especially in developing countries. Wildlife protection. Specific species of animals that elicit responses from people selective in their concern about what animals should not suffer and what animals they could care less about. Ocean protection and conservation. Marine life protection. The list is endless of issues and problems that are not  properly and effectively addressed, and instead are exploited and manipulated to serve the interests of individuals and organizations and not the populations in need.

Because nonprofits act in the name of goodness, and because the doses of feel goodness they serve are massive, few care, stick their necks out or do anything to change things for the better, no matter the harm, no matter the suffering.
