Обозреватель Future решил разобраться, что происходит, когда отработавшие своё спутники падают на Землю
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.
Si le secteur mondial à but non lucratif était un pays, il aurait la seizième économie du monde
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.
L’emploi à but non lucratif en pourcentage de l’emploi privé
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.
Pour les organismes sans but lucratif, une plus grande part de l’économie
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.

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.

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.
