John McClaughry: A Capitalist Success Story - NewsBreak

Here's a tale of two enterprising young men from Vermont who hit the jackpot by selling their startup company to a larger one for $40 million. Let's turn the clock back to 2009.

VPIRG was then, and is still, a nonprofit action organization, promoting a wide range of liberal causes and coalitions. Its budget in 2020 was $1.954 million.
