>Particularly in the developing world, people would benefit from for-profit organizations that are responsive to their needs as opposed to non-profits who work for rich donors and mindless governments. If there was profit to be made there would an business filling that need. A foodbank in Detroit or non profit school in Ethiopia for girls are there because business and the like aren't. |

People an an "undeveloped" area are going to have a bad year now and then when Oxfam will come and tell everyone what an important thing they are doing.
If an area becomes "developed" then for-profit businesses have been created to fulfill people's needs and they don't need Oxfam.
If the rich tip the scales so that all the money ends up in their pockets, they give a little bit to Oxfam. In a fair system, people would create the institutions that they need and we wouldn't need Oxfam.
