Chér Baudouin, democracy without transparency is not democracy at all.
If you have questions and doubts, you should voice them and these should be
answered. If these do not have an answer, then something is wrong.
I have considered all the arguments in these threads and for me it is not
clear that NOT-FOR-PROFIT is a subgroup of NON-COMMERCIAL.
Many not-for-profit organizations have a commercial nature, although they do
not seek profit that can be distributed to their shareholders.
Red Cross, for one. How can one distinguish Red Cross from, let us say,
Vodafone? Probably the single point of distinction is that Red Cross does
accept volunteer work (and Vodafone does not). And of course, the types of
services they render (but this distinguishes all other organizations,
right?). Yet, they only render services to the communities that are their
target if and when someone funds these services.
Not to take it too far, for me, right now, it probably makes sense to have a
NOT-FOR-PROFIT constituency, but not in the scope of the NCUC.
Best regards,
Nuno Garcia
