The non-profits I know do things like raise money for the poor or indigent. The principals get paid a very basic rate. How many programmers could that $2m employ? How many folks could be hired to bridge the digital divide? I can think of many, many ways to spend that $2m besides making some exec richer.

It seems like Mozilla is getting a huge check from Google, paying fancy salaries to some insiders, and then not paying taxes. In my mind, the word "non-profit" means an organization run with more than profit in mind. But maybe you just think it's a clever word for "lucky folks who don't pay taxes."

salary and profit are different things

Only in name. To the exec bringing home $2m, it doesn't really matter whether it's called "salary" or "profit sharing." There might be a tax distinction, but the champagne will taste the same either way for the rich exec.

Except exec does pay taxes on salary ...

You originally accused me of thinking “it's a clever word for "lucky folks who don't pay taxes."”

I don’t understand either of your responses.
