The Non-Profit Industrial Complex ft. Jonathan Ireland

Why do big cities in the US outsource so much of their local government to non-profits? Jonathan Ireland joins the podcast to discuss the non-profit industrial complex. We talk about why governments have outsourced so many of their key functions, how non-profits are often not as altruistic as their name implies, how relying on non-profits degrades the quality of local government, and why this problem is especially bad in some of America's most progressive cities.
