I want to run an independent non-profit business. Any suggestions on how to do that? :-)
(And by that I mean, an entity that is legally prohibited from making a profit (and isn't taxed), but is recognized as being a benefit to the world and legally allowed to ask for and accept donations, while also being independent from a board of directors or membership votes.
Basically I want to be allowed the freedom of having an independent business, while making it clear that we're putting more into the world than taking out of it, and that no one is getting any extra money beyond a set salary based on a healthy living wage (or less if they choose).
I'm not sure I'm explaining it well, but it's something I feel strongly about. Though at this point I've started to just ignore most laws and mainstream approaches to things, and I'm kind of just doing my own thing, and not giving it a name. :-)

Buffy B, but I don't want to have a non-profit. That's the wh*** point. I don't want something that is either a Business or a Non-Profit, I want a third option that has some elements of one or the other, and doesn't have some elements from one or the other. Know what I mean?

Fourth of July on the Lake

The food actually tasted fresher than in the past and was easy to keep fueled.Dad was very proud of the solar hybrid…See More

Food was bought up xawayx at once. There were no more food supplies in any shops. The economy was all crushed down. All the…See More

The exchange works directly for state and public workers and servants. It gives them credit in exchange for the amount of public work they contribute to the community. The more constructive they are based off a base rate the more credit they recieve.
