Expanding Business Capital Ownership to Many

Everyone should be able to pay for the goods and services they need without dependence on Charitable handouts! This will only happen when many more people share in the profits of a growing Economy - when many more people would own the businesses that generate the incomes and profits in the Economy.

Everyone has been fighting against diseases, illiteracy, hunger, crime ..., all facets of poverty. But who is seriously fighting against "Capital-lessness" or poor access to Capital Credit, a key impediment to economic empowerment facing the majority of humanity? Empowered people are Free from the ills associated with poverty, including crime and war! Empowered people are more confident and contribute to a more peaceful and disciplined community or society. The majority of people don't have access to Productive Capital to start businesses because they're either living paycheck-to-paycheck and can't save or none at all. It's the reason why the Capital Sharing group has decided to launch the "Common Collateral Fund" to give more people the means to easily start a business without having to face the constraints of Collateral that impedes most people from owning a business and achieving empowerment.

CAPITAL SHARING
Common Collateral Fund
Transforming the World One Small Business at a time through Expanded Capital Ownership and Credit
Capital Sharing, Inc. is a non-profit organization promoting employee ownership in new or expanding businesses using financing techniques and strategies that facilitate Shares or stock acquisition by workers on credit, without reducing their take-home pay. The program addresses the disparity in business capital ownership that has been identified as one of the principal root causes of growing income inequalities in the world between the "Haves" and "Havenots" and current economic turbulences, without any real solutions in sight, requiring that alternative solutions be implemented to provide real hope for the nearly 98% of humanity that is suffering under the pressures of continued economic uncertainty, rising unemployment and the dangers of global poverty. Influenced by Norman Kurlands Capital Homestead strategy, and Louis Kelso's binary economic theory on expanded capital ownership, Capital Sharing examines the reasons why such good ideas that would alleviate economic disparities have taken so long to influence global economic policy. It was concluded that wanting to convince policy makers from the top may delay the results we expect. This group therefore decided to create this forum to raise widespread awareness to the concept of Expanded Capital Ownership, and motivate a grassroots movement of powerless and capital-less workers so that effective action can begin to influence national and international policy from the bottom-up. The group also aims at promoting increased discussions and debates on this subject which up till now have only been modestly addressed in academia and mostly even ignored in the media and policy arena. The Truth is often too bitter to handle though it could be the basis of real solutions to humanity's problems. Nonetheless sharedownership strategies would bear more desirable results if all stakeholders (the Rich, the have-nots, policy makers, community organizers and educators) could honestly work together to build an alternative system geared toward progressively transforming the current system of concentrated capital ownership with its detrimental incomehoarding effects, to a more broad-based income distribution and market-sustaining system, where everyone would be able to pay for the goods and services they NEED and not just depend on Charitable handouts!.
