Fast to begin Monday to protest proposed GOP budget cuts - The Hill's On The Money

Operative quote:

"Former Rep. Tony Hall (D-Ohio), the head of the Alliance to End Hunger, told The Hill Friday that Democrats are not doing enough to ensure the cuts do not become law, and he is fasting to give a “voice to the voiceless.”"

What is wrong with this quote? Not sure? That's OK you have to know things about non-profit organizations and being "head." The "head" is another name for the CEO, the executive officer, the top honcho. This means if the federal government cuts the funding for Allince to End Hunger it means "former Rep. Tony Hall (D-Ohio)" will not be living off the public dole and be forced to find private funds to pay his wages. So much for "...fasting to give a "voice to the voiceless"" Now if  the head of the Alliance to End Hunger - "former Rep. Tony Hall (D-Ohio)" had been doing his job he would have found private funding to continue operations without the need for government funding. But alas most non-profits relying on Federal funding never meet the requirement to get off the public dole as their funding regulations require; they always come back to the government because they can never sell private individuals on investing (Donating) into their mismanaged non-profit. My personal experience is the top 4 or 5 individuals (Executive, vice president, CFO and HR director) usually consume 25% of the funding stream for their over inflated salaries.
