I love to see you with your own blog these days! As I wrote on your blog, I agree that most nonprofits will not have the opportunity for a government backed "exit strategy". But I don't agree that it only viable in one-off, "unique" situations.

It is really intriguing to consider a rational system of philanthropic investment which tests innovation and is followed by government backing.

I wrote a blog post outlining my rationale in more detail – I would love to hear your thoughts on it. http://blog.redf.org/2009/04/24/government-vis-a-vis-philanthropic-%E2%80%98take-out%E2%80%99-strategies/ Thoughtful post, Sean.
