RE: It’s Time to Build a Society that Benefits Everyone - Not Just the Privileged Few!

in #life7 years ago

We Can't Make the Greedy bastards have a Heart, BUT we CAN boycott their Businesses and Services as much as Possible! That is the ONLY voice we really Have! I already don't shop at Wal Mart, don't eat McDonald's( or any Fast Food!), won't go to Starbucks, etc..Not that my decisions impact them much financially, but it is my Personal crusade! IF I am Ever wealthy enough to take care of myself without worry every day, I will give away nearly every dollar to someone who needs it more than I!!

Sort:  

Great suggestion. I try to avoid the conglomerates also, it's a work in progress weeding them out of my life. I'm with you. I'm going to give practically everything that i have away. With a bit more hard work, time and a bit of luck I'm hoping to be well cashed up in a few years. Then I'll go to 3rd world countries and start using it to help others.

Instead of just giving wealth away, I think one idea that would be great is if someone can right a Steemit application that lets us "bank" our money with a cryptocurrency bank (maybe with Bitcoins) that loans out funds to start co-ops in poorer countries. Small businesses, co-ops, credit unions, etc... It could promise a fair return to help the least fortunate build their own futures. Also, it would begin to build a banking alternative to current banking system which is built on keeping most the population in chains.

Great concept - a lot of work is required to pul it off but I love your thinking and direction. I will add it to my solutions post and credit you for drawing my attention to it.

Awesome - thank you!

Its Just a Dream for Me..I doubt I ever have enough to not worry..
