Exxon Mobil is the second largest (second most profitable) U.S. corporation.   In 2007, while over half of the U.S. population was struggling to find enough money to buy groceries and gasoline, this company made forty-billion, six-hundred-and ten-million dollars in profits.  ($40,610,000,000)   That's the equivalent of collecting about one hundred and sixty four dollars  ($164)  from every man, woman and child in the entire country.   In that same year, Exxon Mobil paid _______  in taxes to the U.S. government and to state and local governments.   

Three of the five largest (most profitable) U.S. corporations in 2007  were oil companies.  When you add up the combined profits of  Exxon Mobil, Chevron,  ConocoPhillips and  the other oil companies (such as Valero, Marathon Oil, etc)  the numbers in the Exxon Mobil example is more than double.   We'll get back to Exxon Mobil in a moment.   Let me shift, briefly, to an analogy

Investments - Endowment Funds:   What do the financially wise people do with a portion of their income?   They use the money as an investment with the intention of preserving their assets for future use and for the purpose of making a profit on their investments.  

What do the major universities (such as Harvard or Yale) do when they receive major donations?   Do they spend the money?   NO!   They add the money to their endowment funds.   They invest it and use the profits to fund the university.   (In the ten year prior to the financial meltdown, the Yale University Endowment Fund earned 14%  to 18% interest each year on its investments.)   

How do wealthy individual handle their money?   They, too,  invest it and live off the profits of their investments.   Why should governments not do likewise?   It's doable.   It's feasible.   It would simply take some time for the shift to be completed.   Here's how to do it.  

What if the governments took a small percent of its tax  income and transferred that money to a network of investment foundations.   Or what if the government took ten to twenty percent of all moneys taken in by the federal government for leases on government lands and other government-owned natural resources and transferred that money to these investment foundations.   

What if the network of non-profit foundations belonged to and were managed by agents hired independently by the people and not under the control of government bureaucrats?   A network of foundations similar to those proposed for solving the home foreclosure crisis could be also used for government savings and investment programs. **ncw3  

What if the bureaucrats put in only a small percent of the tax  money into those independently controlled foundations?   What if the funds were never spent, but rather used for investment purposes only?   Obviously, it would take several years to completely revamp the entire taxation structure, but the results would transform the world.

See the section titled:   Six Simple Steps that will Change the World.  Readers are also invited to see what Social Security would have been   if the government bureaucrats had not stolen the money and destroyed the Social Security system.

Now getting back to Exxon Mobile.   What if, in the future, a portion of the money that this company pays to the various government agencies (we're suggesting ten to twenty percent) was put into the foundations and used to  purchased stock in Exxon Mobil?   How long would it take for these foundations to create a controlling interest in the nation's second largest corporation?   We can't answer the timing question, but we can unequivocally say that, the end result would be inevitable.   At some point, controlling interest would  shift out of the hands of the money lenders and into the control of the foundations.   At that point, the corporation would no longer be able to arrogantly take  forty-billion dollars a year out of everybody's pockets while the average person struggled for survival.  

We're talking about the nation's second most profitable corporation and, in this scenario,  David easily outfoxes Goliath, non-violently with six simple steps.   These six simple steps  can be used by any corporation.   They can and will change the world, unless we kill ourselves first with Global Climate Change.    Imagine what this will do with smaller corporations  --- with corporations that set up their own foundations   --  with corporations where the employees set up asset-protected retirement trusts  that support the corporate revamping process.   

The money interests that control the federal government keep putting whipped cream on garbage.   Instead of more of the same and the same thing harder, it's time for a real change!   It's time to create The New Corporate World

Social Security:   

Examine what Social Security would have become if the bureaucrats had not stolen and spent the money that was supposed to be used to create and investment portfolio. 

What Social Security Was Supposed to Be ²  

Start a new and separate program designed to be what Social Security was supposed to be.   To initially fund the program, invite wealthy individuals to donate or loan money (at zero percent interest) to the investment portfolio.   

Government Contracts:   

Require local, state, and federal governments to contract only with corporations that use the The New Corporate World Foundation's Win-Win Business Structure described at:  http://www.New-Corporate-World.info#39. ²   This would revolutionize the entire corporate world, it would end the exploitation of the public treasury by corporations, and it would definitely put a harness on the military-industrial complex.
