Here's a really inconvenient truth. In 2008, the Humane Society of the United States had an operating budget of $99,664,400. (See line 18 on page 1 of this document.)

Really, really inconvenient. I'm going to try to document what I'm saying very carefully. Please let me know if it's unclear, or if my math is off.
