According to a 2012 report by the Center for Civil Society Studies at Johns Hopkins University, nonprofit employment represents 10.1 percent of total employment in the United States in 2010, with total employees numbering 10.7 million. The nonprofit workforce is the third largest of all U.S. industries behind retail trade and manufacturing.
Number of people employed in the nonprofit sector

10.7 million people depending on being paid by organizations that depend on either TAXES or donations.

Think about that the next time you hear our president exhort people to "public service".
Take a look at the below list of ALL the projects Obama has pushed ... NONE of which designed to encourage business TAX PAYING growth... but
increasing the above nonprofit employees!
Where does the money come to pay for these projects? For these nonprofit employees' salaries?

Most college economics faculty don't believe in profits..
 
Once in the middle of an AMWAY presentation, when the presenter was talking about all the layers of poor suckers who were going to be flooding money to me, I said to the guy, "You know, regardless of all these layers, SOMEBODY, SOMEWHERE has to be actually selling some soap for this whole pyramid scheme to work."

What Democrat politicians (and "Community Organizers," like Our Beloved President) either do not understand or choose to ignore, is that SOMEBODY, SOMEWHERE has to produce SOMETHING in order for the economy to survive. While it may be true that in some cloistered environments like New York, Washington, and Los Angeles, they can SUCK off the rest of the world with impunity and be outrageously wealthy without producing anything, for the "real world," production of something, or performance of a valuable service, is necessary to survive.

Everybody can't work in healthcare, insurance, law, banking, non-profits, and Gub'Mint. SOMEBODY has to produce SOMETHING.

Like, open ended, all aspects of life?
Well let's get very very basic.
Without the first person who killed more then he could eat that exchanged his meat for sexual gratification with a starving female who
exchanged her body to stay alive... she profited.. he profited!
That is the basic premise.
She get's pregnant. HE feeds her and has a son that grows and hunts adding to the profit!
That's how it's been since the beginning!
 
So the man profited a women or a penis profited a vagina?

Both!
He received gratification and a future hunter!
She lived another day with the meat and future days as the man exchanged pleasure simple as that..
 
Unless we live in fantasy world of Star Trek where no one gets a salary and everyone lives on the grace of government.. profits help nonprofits exist.

Instincts and attraction aren't why men and women have sex?

It's a bribe?

What naive world do you live in?
Early man had sex for gratification.
Realized that if he just screwed and didn't sustain the woman.. no more sex!
So he feeds his (profits).. female. She exists another day. She profits with her body. Why do you think prostitution is called the OLDEST Profession???

Naïve? :lol:

You're the one claiming women had sex in caveman days as a result of a bribe.

No, they were either willing or raped.

Ah... so you believe a woman willy nilly screwed anyone around KNOWING that she won't have the ability to take care of her self for 3 months with the pregnancy. And then when the baby comes she does what with the baby? How does she feed herself during those 3 months when she can't do anything to sustain herself?

And then of course you believe women screwed all the time regardless of how pregnancy limited her food gathering especially in winter.
Why is it easier to believe a woman screwed indiscriminately then to believe the reality the man exchanged food (profit) for gratification and the woman (oldest profession) exchanged sex?

You need to look up i.n.s.t.i.n.c.t.

wow.
 
an innate, typically fixed pattern of behavior in animals in response to certain stimuli.

OK?
So intercourse is the response of a response to the cave woman doing what do stimulate the cave man?
What's that got to do with anything?
Over time the cavemen behavior was modified when they realized they could get more sex by paying for it rather then raping then killing off the cave woman.
I mean logically if raping the woman was the ONLY way then evolution would not have occurred.
 
For many years during the 1980s and most of the 2000s many products and services made profits for their stock holders and owners.
Then came high speed Internet, eBay and Amazon Feedback and many companies that had lost the incentive to innovate got it back REAL FAST.
So no, the profit motive, in MANY cases, does not motivate product improvements, the LOSS of profit does.

Good thing she had a boy. If she would have had a girl, I guess our "man" in this bizarre idiotic scenario would have to be a duck dynasty pedophile and double down (forgive the pun) on trying to get one of these women to give him a hunter err I mean male.

:cuckoo:
 
See there are those motivated by money and will work hard for it.

There are those that believe they are entitled to that money and refuse to work for it.

Can you guess which voted for the current far left president?

You missed the point.
Without profit from other ventures, investors wouldn't start a company without the opportunity to make a profit on their investment.

After the company no longer makes a profit, they don't have the money to make product improvements!

All that maybe true but doesn't alter the premise of the title..that progress doesn't come without profit.
