<p>[QUOTE="krispy, post: 1459680, member: 19065"]You can try to shuffle the term around with technical categorization but moving the profit from one activity into the accounts and holdings of a sister institution is still a profit earned. Let them sell at cost to the consumer if they are truly non-profit. Wasn't TARP said to be a $24 billion profit heralded by the government... The government institutions are run by business people keenly aware and interested in making a profit, as well as using it to justify the success of what they do in office. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie11" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> I will for go any further reference to politics as we can't talk about it on CT, but you cannot convince me the Mint is not aware nor impressed with the fact that they can turn a profit, even if the money goes elsewhere in government afterwards.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
