The Simple Goal
Our goal is not that unique nor original since it is simply equivalent to many other amazing initiatives. Just like others we want to create a collaborative instead of a competitive unequal society that we have today. We live in a system that promises opportunity, yet in practice amplifies inequality. Starting points are unequal, and because wealth generates more wealth, advantages compound over time. Access to capital, knowledge, and networks determines who gets ahead—and who gets left behind. The issue is not merely wealthy individuals, but a global system of capital and institutions designed to concentrate ownership over time. If you want to have a little 101 economics explanation of how this came about then please check our Status Quo chapter, but for now we recognize that the problem exists.
So how do we solve such a problem ? To put it quite bluntly, we believe that each for profit industry/organization or infrastructure should eventually allbecome becomea non profits.profit. This is obviously easier said then done, because well how are you going to survive if you spend your time volunteering for non profit organizations. On top of that not all sectors of the working life are as enjoyable to volunteer for as others.others, and not everyone has the time to volunteer even if they wanted to. We recognize these problems and therefore it won't be a switch over night. It will be a gradual process with lots of hick ups and obstacles on it's way but well that willis requirealso what makes it worth fighting for.

Sure, we call this a simple goal, but is it simple ? Well in theory with the current technologies
However, what's funny is that these technologies also amplify the problem we try to solve.
Now, we believe that this can be collectively achieved by slowly transforming each for profit organization into a non profit.

Human beings will never change, we always want power over others and we are selfish.
