This report is VERY questionable.

The source obviously has an axe to grind. (And no, I am not an NRA fanboy).

No one is quoted. No names are mentioned. No reason is given (other than - public/private corporations are subject to less scrutiny and are more prone to graft - which is debatable.)

I would put as much faith in the validity of this report as something posted on Reddit.

The taxes are probably going to be outrageous and membership will probably double. Are they maybe considering this so those at the top can get bonuses and such?

"fify"...we know nobody who's not a crook possesses the managerial personality traits to double the membership

Sooo, someone thinks more corporate involvement in D.C. is a good idea? How exactly does this corporation turn a profit? Tens of millions spent every year on behalf of protecting rights requires tens of millions earned, I'd bet a month's pay I've never donated money to a corporation nor will I. So what's left? Those fancy jackets and hats bringin in the big bucks?

Maybe it would be best if they went the Scientology route? The church of the NRA?

Then Soros can own the NRA.
