Bucking The Horse

Sometimes it is much easier and better to go along with the acceptable standards, than to buck the horse an d be branded as off the wire by those who may disagree with your style of thinking and operation. However to sometimes solve some types of problems it may require of us to get off the bandwagon of the common options and come up with something either completely new or even unorthodox. This of course will set you up for an onslaught of cruel attacks, on you as a person and not the issue on hand.

For example one area, if you may be wondering what I am writing about, would be the question on how to solve the Palestinian and Israeli conflicts. The usual solution suggested is two state solution, or as some Arabs want the destruction of the Israelis by driving them into the sea. And even though the latter is not an option, the former is not totally irrelevant. However I don't think even after a two state solution is reached, the demands by the Arabs or Palestinians will cease.

Now the unusual solution for the Palestinians and Israelis conflicts I would like to suggest is the removal of the Palestinians completely from the Gaza Strip and the West Bank and resettle them in the other Arab countries such as Saudi Arabia, Egypt, etc. and grant them citizenship of these countries they are settled in. And if this idea seems ludicrous at first, think of all the millions that have settled in the USA the greatest country on earth.

So post your comments for a healthy discussion.

A New Corporate System

This is an idea that I want to explore but which I have not given extensive thought process to. It might be viewed as a radical shift from the old profit system which usually ties up large amount capital by few shareholders, and limits genuine all round progress that can benefit the wider society as a whole at a lower cost. Therefore this idea would need a lot of fine tuning as I go along to explore this whole new concept.

First the real purpose of corporations is not to so much perform services or provide products for the benefit of societies but rather to provide returns on investment by shareholders so as to benefit these risk takers. This point I suppose is arguable as some may want to construe that the real purposes of corporations is to provide services and products for the benefit of societies. However since managers or owners are more concerned with profit making and may possibly in an effort to make profit, do so at any cost!

Now the idea I want to explore is that only an agreed percentage such as about ten percent should be paid to shareholders or owners of the business and the balance of the so called profits should be invested into the societies such as in cheaper housing and other necessary infrastructures. This idea may seem ludicrous at first but if given serious thoughts, one would realize that if business are run on the principle that its returns should benefit the people as a whole with a better quality and standard of living. Then countries can begin to see a genuine eradication of poverty, crimes, deceases that has plagued this earth we are living on, and genuine progress in every continent.
