Five years ago I sat down with the CEO of a charity, an old friend. He made a valuable point about working for the benefit of others.
He said that there's no shame in getting paid for helping others. Indeed the charities that do best are the ones who hire talent instead of limping along with volunteers.
Then my brain kicks in to say, "every charity is a failure of government."
I find the need to act overwhelming, and the lack of political action depressing.
