In most jurisdictions in the western world, there are two types of legally recognized corporations – for-profit and not-for-profit (NFP); delineated by the pursuit of economic gain for shareholders versus creating benefits in the broader community. Accordingly, we have adopted common attitudes that have supported these traditional constructs. Governments provide tax breaks to NFPs and provide further incentives to those NFPs we deem to be pursuing charitable ends. Many for-profit entities provide discounted rates for products or services to NFPs. Employees seem to generally accept that salaries will be lower if they are working for a NFP rather than for a for-profit or public sector
