Nothing Better to Do?

What? Two postings in two days? Has the man nothing better to do? Fear not; just a brief note to point out an interesting (to UK philanthropoids anyway) article - the top story, in fact - in yesterday's New York Times, exploring the apparently growing challenges to the tax-exempt status of US charities, on a variety of grounds - for example, when is a nonprofit a business? does a nonprofit hospital give enough to charity care to earn its exemption? (cf the 'public benefit' test as now applied to fee-paying schools here in the UK) . You can read it here.
