Thank you for bringing up our History as a nation, Because it took a few good Men To draft a idea which became our Constitution. And It took a Nation of People to sort out and fight for the freedoms that we still have in our Nations Constitution. Still avaliable to exercise, to put the power back into it’s citizens hands as it was formed, out of years of prior oppression from peoples of many Countries. And What concerns me is that Our people do not understand the History of what it took for those few Brave Men to forge those ideas, and fight to preserve them in History. I agree that It is the Entrepreneurs that will be the ones to initiate and save the world, and not just the Nation of the United states. Because their is a whole World looking to us for Leadership. And if we do not exercise our right to Sovereignty and take the responsibility that was granted to us by our fore fathers we may not have the opportunity to provide the provision that the Constitution has afforded us up to this point for our children to experience what happened in the second epoch. I hope that opportunity will come as you have projected. All eyes are on us to make the right Decisions. Can we today live up to what it truly meant to be a Sovereign Nation? To finally create a just economic order.
In Gratitude,
Tom

Obama now promises change and change will come.

And mostly from the entrepreneurs and people that create new thoughts. Obama now tries to awake the entrepreneurial spirit in the American people. I certainly hope they will listen to one of the worlds most powerful and wise leaders.

But, If you agree with the President when he said

“Dark Ages of Entrepreneurship. Specifically, this is the age I refer to as the era of “Entrepreneurial Dependence” which is marred by corporate scandals and corruption.”

Just wait and see what happens to Entrepreneurship when we follow the Socialist model we seem to be headed for.

I knew then what is now becoming mainstream, that the days of the big corporations taking care of you for thirty years and then giving you a golden retirement are gone.

Up until 1945, about 80% of the working population was made up of entrepreneurs, mostly farm related occupations, but entrepreneurs just as well. And work at home entrepreneurs at that, after all, a farmer works in his backyard.

One might say that the second half of the 20th century was an aberration. Humans are at heart entrepreneurs. And those who lack the imagination, guts and willpower to be entrepreneurs are all too happy to help them achieve their goals. We can’t all be entrepreneurs. In fact, entrepreneurs need a little help (hence the 80%)

Fuller’s books Critical Path (c1981) and GRUNCH – Gross Universal Cash Heist (c1983) are a must read for all entrepreneurs serious about creating a world the works for everyone.

Here’s a paragraph from the back covers of CP and Grunch:

CP – “Today we find ourselves in the midst of the greatest crisisin the history of the human race. Technology has placed in our hands almost unlimited power at the very moment when we have run up against the limits of our resources aboard Spaceship Earth, as the crisis of the late twentieth century — political, economic, environmental and ethical determines whether or not humanity survives. In this masterful summing up of an entire lifetime’s thought and concern, R. Buckminster Fuller addresses these critical issues in his most significant, accessible and urgent work.”

GRUNCH – “An army of abstract legal entities (called corporation) now controls the economic and political future of mankind. In his urgent sequel to Critical Path, R. Buckminster Fuller traces the evolution of these multinational giants from the post-World War II “military-industrial complex” to the current world economic crisis-an evolution, he argues, that threatens the imminent bankruptcy of the U.S. and the collapse of the world economic system.”

Bucky proposed that a comprehensive design revolution was required, if human beings are to survive on planet earth.

Entrepreneurs will be very much responsible for this revolution and it will require us, as individuals, taking responsibility (being cause in the matter of our own future).

It especially requires us stepping into a NEW paradigm — the existing paradigm of SCARCITY, or not enough ceased to exist in the early 1970’s. Unless we step into a new paradigm of ABUNDANCE then we can only continue recreating another version of scarcity and lack.

I feel R. Buckminster Fuller was also clear that it will take a DESIGN Revolution, and not an administrative revolution or an education revolution, even though these two areas are important. He knew, as have scientists for many decades now that education is not effective to bring in change, in fact it is only 5 to 10% effective. Administrative measures are a little more effective at 10 to 20% effective.

Design changes are almost 100% effective, and when we change the environment (or the context) we have seen that behavior and outcomes change quickly.

The future that R Buckminster Fuller saw as possible was ten billion billionaires living aboard our tiny planet, and of achieving that within a period as short as ten years, once we realise that we can effectively work together (interdependence) and are focused on creating a future that works for everyone. It is an incredibly exciting future.
