Synopsis

Our Choice: Democracy or Corporate Rule A handful of corporations and financial institutions command an ever-greater concentration of economic and political power in an assault against markets, democracy, and life. It's a “suicide economy,” says David Korten, that destroys the very foundations of its own existence. The bestselling 1995 edition of When Corporations Rule the World helped launch a global resistance against corporate domination. In this twentieth-anniversary edition, Korten shares insights from his personal experience as a participant in the growing movement for a New Economy.  A new introduction documents the further concentration of wealth and corporate power since 1995 and explores why our institutions resolutely resist even modest reform. A new conclusion chapter outlines high-leverage opportunities for breakthrough change.

    How can you Keep Taxes Away from your wealth? 
    There are only two fundamental guarantees in life, death and taxes. Your proverbial 
    nest egg is not a guarantee. But, what if you could have greater control over your 
    money? What if you could protect more of what you earn from being taxed away from 
    you? Would you want to know how? For most, taxes are seen as part of life and 
    accepted as another governmental control to live with. We are here to tell you it doesn’t 
    have to be this way! 
    By picking up this book, you will learn the challenges most Canadians face when saving 
    for their future. We will explore the current tax system, the inherent overspending by the 
    government, and how conventional wisdom toward financial growth is failing Canadians. 
    But more importantly, we will share the proven methods for growing and preserving your 
    wealth by shielding your hard-earned money from excessive taxation. The knowledge 
    we share will benefit you and future generations in experiencing a healthier, more 
    robust financial life!

    We’re on the cusp of a paradigm shift, a radical change in worldview that will thrust art and culture onto center stage. What does that mean? How will the world be different? What is the rising spirit of the times and how is it being expressed in art? Arlene Goldbard says, “I have this overwhelming image of energy gathering force and taking shape.” She likens this force to a wave and says, “No one masterminds a wave, ordering all the drops of water into line. Many independent forces operate simultaneously – wind, gravity, disturbances of all kinds – and somehow, the wave mounts.” In this dialogue we explore this mounting force and what’s opposing this rolling tide.

    The cognitive business skills for starting, running, and succeeding at a business venture can be gleaned from books and learned from business schools. But there is no entity that can equip an entrepreneurial candidate with what economist Joseph Alois Schumpeter rather romantically described, back in 1912, as "the will to conquer, the dream and the will to found a private kingdom, and the joy of creating, of getting things done." 
    Most successful entrepreneurs do discover and master the science behind: "the will to conquer, the dream and the will to found a private kingdom, and the joy of creating, of getting things done." But only after going through the school of hard knocks, failing many times, suffering excruciating pain, and paying an enormous price. 
    If you are 
    yet to experience this joy of creating and getting things done. 
    yet to live the dream and exercise the will to build a private kingdom, 
    holding back from fear of failure, possible pain, or an unwanted price then this book is guaranteed to get you off that lukewarm zone of indecisiveness filled with fear and anxiety. 
    It will stir up your will and incite you to blaze a trail of action and success. 
    It will, assuredly, ignite the fire in your belly such that people from far and wide will come watch you burn!
