The way we think about charity is dead wrong (ted.com)

Well expressed idea and worth watching. Key point is that we think of 'overhead' and 'cause' as separate things in a charity, like overhead does not count towards the cause and hence has to be minimized. This kind of thinking has led to a world where smart, talented and willing people need to make a choice between 'doing good' an having a career.
