God, I love these kind of questions. It's distraction and procrastination in one convenient package.  It's hard to imagine that a huge global organization like the KND can manage all their resources efficiently without blowing a hole in their pockets. My hats off to the KND's human resource management and accounting department! One theory I have is a mandatory monthly fee for all KND members. Maybe $5 a month, and it varies according to countries - depending on foreign exchange rates. Imagine that the KND has one million members - that's a cool 5 million a month! Another one is extortion. "Dad, can I have a dollar?" They have got to get their money from somewhere, and I suspect those cookies that the conniving girl scouts are selling. And that dang kid next door that sells lemonade and those snow shovelers. Oh yeah, don't be deceived, all those hard earned money will end up with the KND. Or hey, the obvious one: The Dexter effect. It just came from out of nowhere. Then again, he owes NASA for that... |

I like the Girl Scout theory, though in the KND-verse, they have Skunky Scouts. Ditto with the Lemonade stand, and the extortion ("Dad, can I have a dollar?"). They probably have a whole department for that. XD
Maybe they get a little kickback from their teen operatives, too.
Of course, we also know they don't have much cash, seeing as their weapons, armor, and technology are made from junk and spare parts. They probably dig through the garbage and salvage anything usable for free.

Oh its simple.
See, early on, the KND realized they would need funding. Luckily, they were talking near a "good" adult who happened to be named... oh, I forget, Mr. War-something...
Anyway, he overheard and told them "You know, I think that would make a good cartoon," he and the KND worked out a deal, and now they get a huge chunk of royalties thanks to a certain TV show on Cartoon Network.

Well... just to add to the zany theories...
You know how we can lose a lotta stuff in the couch? Things that are lost in the couch may be considered gone forever right?
What if couches were inconspicuously actually all in a worldwide network set up by the KND? That would mean an awful lot of lost change, toys and TV remotes for the KND operatives. Change for the funding of the organization and other lost items could also be a great help for the 2x4 developers of the bunch. ^__^

i love counter-arguments. they just change the subject.
anyways, i think they just get the stuff from the junkyard, and old stuff that's broke.
if they need to buy stuff, it's jet fuel(op. dogfight)
they also have the knd bill at candy shops(op. teeth)

and now they get a huge chunk of royalties thanks to a certain TV show on Cartoon Network. But with the impending end of said 'recruitment propaganda' on that network, how are they going to survive now that their main source of income is cut off? Reruns will only give oh so much. Will somebody please think of the children! |

i agree that they just salvage/steal all the materials they use.
But maybe when you join the KND you have to give them your parents credit card number and they just take out the money from your parents bank accounts in the form of 'gas, electric and oil' bills

Or maybe they get sponsorship from kid-friendly corporations, and others who believe in protecting kids' rights.

Thanks for pointing that out. The TND (if there is such thing) may not be enough for funding either. Ah cartoon space, what would organizations created to fight adult tyranny do without you? ^__^ |
