And when you try to grasp them it becomes meaningless in the context of what he is trying to say.
Take your quote for example.
the nonprofit sector has been steadily growing. Between 2001 and 2011, the number of nonprofits increased 25 percent.
Non profit is a huge sector much of which has nothing to do with charity, much of the growth in non political "charitable" non profits is of course accommodated by the huge number of scam "charities" which bloom after any well publiciced tragedy, Katrina being a good example in that timeframe.
Someone recently made a topic concerning a selection of charities which do very little or even nothing but simply gain money for their own "administrative fees" by having a name that is almost identical to legitimate charities.
