Thanks. The ideas are very serious for me however. I believe that the democratization of capital is the great task of our generation. For me it is an important idea to get out into the world and your talents could be the very way to do so in a humorous, entertaining way. How much would I need to raise to contract with you for a Captain Capitalism cartoon like the ones you have done already? Say, were Captain Capitalism has an epiphany, maybe with the help of a little yoda like Gandi who tells him "Change the be you want the world to see" then he falls asleep and Thomas Paine's Common Sense falls off the bookshelf and clobbers him on the head.

Then he wakes up realizing that his beloved capitalism is in danger and he must save it, but he can't do it alone. He needs all the boys and girls to help. To gather all their dimes an quarters and energize new corporations of the people, by the people, and for the people. Corporations with out kings. Corporations there to serve the governed.

One of the largest shifts in human society has occurred in the last 20 years - up there with the wheel, the hunter/gatherer band, and the rise of the nation state. The majority of the 100 largest economies in the world are now corporate states, not nation states. The corporate state is the ascendant form of governance in our world and we must begin the work of making them self-regulating, accountable structures if we have any hope of a free and prosperous future for our children.

Peace.

Basically, the premise is this. A seismic shift has occurred in human society. The majority of the largest economies in the world are corporations, not governments. These top companies control 40% of the world economy but only employ 1% of the population. The question is not whether this is true, but what are we going to do about it, to insure our access to prosperity, liberty and the pursuit of happiness? I think the answer is simple. Millions and millions of brilliant human minds have dedicated themselves, since the rise of the nation state over 1,000 years ago, to the problem of creating accountable governments that are of the people, for the people, and by the people. Now is the time to apply all of that thought to the ascendant form of government, the corporate state. We are building a Democratic Economic Nation (DEN) at Shinneyboo where no one can ever become King (myself especially). We will do this by creating governing constitution that applies the concepts of Checks and Balances, Branches of Governance, Elected Accountable Leadership, etc. We will build a strong, profitable, corporation that is created to serve the people who work for it and invest in it.
