The overall economy has been expanding slowly, but at least one sector is vibrant: nonprofits, which have been growing at a breakneck pace.
This thesis uses input-output modeling to measure the economic impact of non-profit sectors.The model is calibrated using data that describes the inter-industry relationships within each local economy, and then simulated using input-output analysis with social accounting matrix extensions.
Output multipliers are generated for the Arts, Education, Environment, Health, Human Services, and Other non-profit sectors using software, which calculates the ripple effects throughout each local economy.
If the global nonprofit sector were a country, it would have the sixteenth largest economy in the world.
There are still considerably more businesses than nonprofits, of course, about four times as many.But over that period, nonprofits also outpaced businesses in their percentage growth in hiring, wages and contribution to the gross domestic product, according to the Urban Institute.
The number of nonprofits in the United States grew 25 percent while the number of for-profit businesses rose by half of 1 percent, according to the most recent figures compiled by the Urban Institute.
All told, roughly 1.6 million nonprofits employed 10 percent of the domestic work force in 2010 and accounted for 5 percent of G.D.P. Nonprofits are all exempt from corporate taxes according to the Urban Institute.
Nonprofit Employment as a Percentage of Private Employment
In addition to the economic activity encouraged by nonprofits and the countless dollars that nonprofits save governments through their efficient service delivery, nonprofits are also one of the greatest sources of employment across the country.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the nonprofit sector employs 11.4 million people – that’s 10.2 percent of the American workforce!
Check out the map below to find out what percent of the workforce in your state is employed by a nonprofit. But over that period, nonprofits also outpaced businesses in their percentage growth in hiring, wages and contribution to the gross domestic product, according to the Urban Institute to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
For Nonprofits, a Bigger Share of the Economy
All told, roughly 1.6 million nonprofits employed 10 percent of the domestic work force in 2010 and accounted for 5 percent of G.D.P. Nonprofits are all exempt from corporate taxes.But aside from that, they are an extremely varied group. Most are charities, for which donations are tax-deductible.

Our economy is based on spending billions to persuade people that happiness is buying things, and then insisting that the only way to have a viable economy is to make things for people to buy so they’ll have jobs and get enough money to buy things. Philip Slater – Actor, Playwright, and Sociologist
Story highlights
- Large companies contribute disproportionately more to a country’s economic performance than smaller ones. Bigger corporations are more productive, they pay higher wages, enjoy higher profits, and are more successful in international markets.Therefore, a country’s economic performance can be linked to its number of big corporations.
- Analysts say large companies are more innovative, and the exporting firms are also found to be larger and do more research and development. This suggests that barriers to R&D and trade are the main culprits that slow down firm growth.Countries that face higher trade costs provide fewer opportunities for businesses to become large.
- To identify the barriers to firm growth, the authors behind the report say a model is needed to analyse different factors such as trade costs, innovation costs and tax distortions.
THE WORLD’S BIGGEST ECONOMIES IN 2017
When it comes to the top 10 national economies around the globe, the order may shift a bit, but the key players usually remain the same, and so does the name at the head of the list. The United States has been the world’s biggest economy since 1871. But that top ranking is now under threat from China.
By 2050, the World is likely to have changed drastically from what we know now, and the Planet’s economic and financial landscape will be no exception.

Six of the seven largest economies in the world are projected to be emerging economies in 2050
The emerging markets can be difficult places in which to do business.
The ability to understand and adapt to local rules and customs will be essential, as will the right entry strategy and, where appropriate, the right partners. Good relations with local government and regulatory bodies will also be crucial.
And, in some cases, the best production centres may not be the largest consumer markets.

Listen to the sand eels, mosquitoes, birds, butterflies on climate change. They are on the move already. The environmental effects of sea-level rise will dramatically alter the Severn estuary, and all its inhabitants, if we do little to deploy alternatives to fossil fuels now. Can the seriousness of the crisis justify the sacrifice of some present wetlands in order to avoid them being found far inland by our great grandchildren?

A few days before the mammoth US election, David Lev met with an outstanding war veteran and champion of Israel rights. William Langfan has long been a thorn in the side of both the PA and those which advocate placating their political agenda, regardless of what the truth might be.

William is challenging high ranking advocates of peace with the PA, to seriously consider the full implications of entering negotiations without first putting the record straight on their ultimate intention of total denial of a Jewish State of Israel.

A wonderful serenity has taken possession of my entire soul, like these sweet mornings of spring which I enjoy with my whole heart. I am alone, and feel the charm of existence in this spot, which was created for the bliss of souls like mine. I am so happy, my dear friend, so absorbed in the exquisite sense of mere tranquil existence, that I neglect my talents. I should be incapable of drawing a single stroke at the present moment; and yet I feel that I never was a greater artist than now.
When, while the lovely valley teems with vapour around me, and the meridian sun strikes the upper surface of the impenetrable foliage of my trees, and but a few stray gleams steal into the inner sanctuary, I throw myself down among the tall grass by the trickling stream; and, as I lie close to the earth, a thousand unknown plants are noticed by me.

To take a trivial example, which of us ever undertakes laborious physical exercise, except to obtain some advantage from it?

Everyone realizes why a new common language would be desirable: one could refuse to pay expensive translators. To achieve this, it would be necessary to have uniform grammar, pronunciation and more common words. If several languages coalesce, the grammar of the resulting language is more simple and regular than that of the individual languages. The new common language will be more simple and regular than the existing European languages. It will be as simple as Occidental; in fact, it will be Occidental.
The European languages are members of the same family. Their separate existence is a myth. For science, music, sport, etc, Europe uses the same vocabulary. The languages only differ in their grammar, their pronunciation and their most common words.
