You know what isn't an easy task? Trying to cure cancer! This is ridiculous when the people doing the groundbreaking research earn a fraction of pay that non-profits rake in. When I did cancer research, after earning my PhD, I made a whopping $35k/yr. This was cutting edge research as well. A lot of these non-profits need serious restructuring in my opinion.
