Consumer Action Bank

[mooaah]

As anyone looked into the possibility of starting up a bank.

A bank that is owned equally by each and everyone of its users,

A bank that is ethical. A bank that informs people about money from its creation to its destruction? I think sometimes the path of least resistance is the best. You have to want to find that path. All others will have to follow.

 

Money should be a tool to make things simpler, not a token of power.

 

If we look at the total effort of mankind, more than half is wasted administering and manipulating money. Think of all the huge office blocks, all the computers, desks, filling cabinets, manufacture of these items, people traveling to and from the centres of commerce, all the vehicles made purely for this purpose. All the food expended in this effort, all the medical problems brought about by stress, lorries moving the equipment, manufacture of these lorries, etc etc etc. when people understand that there is no tangible basis for money apart from our consensus, we realise that we can do everything we actually need to do for a good life, in a two day working week.

 

Can you imagine how successful the bank would be if it was actually honest??? If it actually had a tangible plan for setting people free from this "Law of the Jungle" mentality. A bank that would become the cornerstone of a true civilisation.

 

Or shall we give up on that idea?

 

What do you think? is it possible?

I think this might be one of the reasons credit unions where set up.

CHEERS Wino,

 

You are absolutlely correct, I work voluntarily for a Credit Union and most if not all of Mooaah's concerns are addressed by them. Let's keep our deposits away from the clearing banks and give them some real competition, to think about.
