actually, if they, the ama, wishes to retain it's curent 501***status, we, the members do have the right to demand answers to where the funds are going.
Yep, we the members and every taxpayer that subsidizes AMA for the amount of taxes they are exempted from paying. Of course if they were not 501***, they wouldn't be forced to force a magazine on us. Wonder what would be the cost of dues if AMA paid taxes and we didn't have to subsidize the magazine or pay other costs associated with maintaining the tax exemption. Ostensibly they don't make a profit, so what would they pay taxes on, anyway? I don't pay income tax on investment property until income exceeds expenses - is it different for a company like AMA? Maybe Hoss knows this stuff...........
