Not fun, but the need to stay relevant. If they aren't crusading, then who in the media would bother to talk to them?
Once a vaccine was found, and the threat of polio faded into a distance memory, I was disappointed to discover that the MARCH OF DIMES just morphed into another charity.
It was then that I realized that even when a cure for cancer or heart disease was discovered that the charities would continue with a new cause. For those that ran the charities the end product is not the cure, but the raising of money.
It is the same with the Civil Rights and feminist groups today. Even when the battle is won, they continue to fight the war, it is the only way they can continue their paycheck.
Bump!!
