Let's End Poverty & Global Warming for Good 'Sideline' Income!

    How do we motivate potential investors to create mega co-op corporate groups from scratch?  Fundamentally, what investors and lenders look for in a potential investment-grade enterprise is the character of its leaders and the track record of the company in terms of long-term dividend and interest-issuing capabilities.  Another determinant is the past and probable future market value of the target company's stock shares.  Since our mega co-ops shall start from zero, their proponents have to ride aboard the 'names' of highly respected individuals, companies, Funds, governments and institutions local and foreign which already possess confidence-building investment attractors.     How?  For the Philippines, investment trust may build up out of  the following: a) management level retirees of top local companies as organization and management teams for the co-ops.  Most large Philippine companies are joint ventures with 1st World compa...

    There may be several million 1st World companies with CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) programs. Such companies' CSR budgets vary depending on their managements' appreciation of what constitutes corporate social responsibility.  Most are satisfied with caring for customers, conducting ethical business, saving energy and other local endeavors.  Environmental and climate change issues are much talked about but action is scarce, for solving such issues requires global scale cooperation which is rare.  Only climate change Funds usually managed by governments conduct global action in terms of reforestation and maintenance of the carbon credit market in which relatively few corporations participate.     Such lack of global action is what our mega co-op schemes aim to address.  If we popularize the idea among the corporate world that green 'intrapreneurship' can create much profits, both CSR and non-CSR companies worldwide will likely adopt...

    The world's Central Banks and all elite banks  has since 1971 been creating money out of thin air, in the process maintaining economic and social pyramids of various sizes and tapers throughout all humanity.  The lesson must not be lost: Our dreamed Employees' banks (EB) can just as well create such fiat moneys as needed by businesses, but this time to narrow down wealth gaps.  In the Philippines, how may mega co-ops set up an EB?      Capital for a nascent Philippine EB and its nationwide branches  should come from: a) all mega co-ops at 10% of capital; b) the government at 10% of all local and foreign loan proceeds for all time, all converted to non-voting EB capital stock; c) all State agencies, corporations and local governments at 10% of yearly operations budget, also converted to non-voting EB capital stock. Said provision should prevent old-style politicians' meddling with monetary volumes while enabling State to earn interest ...

    Since the USA ended dollar convertibility to gold in 1971,  the world's central banks and private banks had been creating money out of thin air by simply printing currencies or making electronic entries in their ledgers.  Unfortunately, quadrillions of such created cash and bank deposits have not been and still are not  proportionately allocated to the entire population but end up mainly among businesses owned or controlled by relatively few entrepreneurs.  Together with key managers, said entrepreneurs use their borrowed money (from banks and other entities) to pay employees who thence create goods and render services which when sold lead to enormous profits.  As corporate loans get paid, the company's assets, credit worthiness,  and stock shares' values proportionately rise.  Since very few entrepreneurs own stock shares, trillions of dollars in wealth largely created by masses of employees and managers become the properties of a relati...

    Since global warming is planet scale, we have to target global scale funds from both State and private sectors to initiate and pursue climate change financing action.  Fundamentally, the world's investment and lending funds are so huge and 'expandable' that, given an attractive and practical profit-based strategy, a mere 10% of the amounts will prove more than enough to suck up most of the 700+ billion tons of Earth's atmospheric CO2 while creating jobs for five billion 3rd World poor within mere decades.  Here are recent US dollar estimates from which we can source potential 'air cleaner' financial tools, based on internet data: a) total value, world banks' and peoples' coins and banknotes: $81 trillion; b) stock shares in world stock markets: $70 trillion; c) global bonds: $100 trillion; d) global currency trades: $5 trillion per day ; e) global stock market buy/sell deals: $700 trillion during economic crises, $1.2 quadrillion and up during good t...

    Filipino expatriates and migrants worldwide remit over $25 billion yearly to relatives back home, a sum that forms a minor percentage of their total dollar incomes.  Filipino BPO (business process outsourcing) employees' salaries are expected to top the sum in the near future. Combined with incomes of corporate employees and small entrepreneurs, middle class Filipino incomes come up to  trillions of pesos yearly.  The major percentage of the country's P10 trillion or so bank deposits comprise savings and time deposits (loans to banks) mostly owned by employee masses and expatriate dependents.  Yet only a tiny percentage of said earning masses hold certificates of stock in large corporations, compared to some 60% of US employee masses.  Additionally, there are only 250 or so companies in the local stock market that are open for public investments.  Furthermore, only a handful of investment houses actively promote corporate investments that t...

    Fast-track climate change action thru mega co-ops is possible only if 1st and 3rd World employee masses exchange ideas thru blogs and websites about principles and action items presented in this blog as well as improvements and expansions on said issues.  When 1st World business experts get involved in planning clean and green joint venture projects, normally timid 3rd World masses will develop the business confidence to set up mega co-ops. This is absolutely critical, for history has shown that poor masses lack the business confidence to engage in large-scale entrepreneurship thru  pooling of small sums.  In the Philippines, low employee salaries will require 1,000+ employees and small investors to organize one mega co-op that targets a P100 million ($2 million) 'mother co-op' that will partner with 20 or so foreign joint venture companies.  Investments by scores of local and foreign corporations and State agencies with CSR programs thereby becomes c...
