]Part 2
As always, many thanks for your thoughtful comments that you left in the
earlier parts.
I can promise you that each and every comment, each and every word that you
leave is being carefully, read and digested by empowr's team and management,
the founders and myself. Thank you!
I'll try and post a new part every day when there's not another announcement.
Part 3: What this book is all about
Two of the most important things that contributed to the success of First World
countries (democracy and education) have eroded over the years, with dire
consequences. My team and I have a few ideas about how to fix these broken
systemsusing technology. I write about it on the following pages.
Even if you disagree with us and believe the system is working as it should and
that our world is heading in the right direction, I hope to convince you that
improving and expanding these pillars of civilization is still a worthy
endeavor.
This book is about why and how my team and I are creating a business that we
hope will do its part to help foster a new online culture, one that uses some
of the most powerful wealth-creating forces in our world (democracy, education,
and network technology) to help fight the biggest global problems we face
(poverty and inequality; extremism and terrorism; and instability of every kind
through the unraveling of democracy in numerous countries).
So that you know where I'm coming from, I will begin by telling you briefly why
I think democracy, western education, and network technology have "saved the
world"; and how each of them is now in big trouble, resulting in serious,
undesirable consequences for all of humanity.
I pepper these analyses with a few of my own experiences. While I know these
additions challenge my objective to keep this book short, I hope that the
inclusion of these stories will answer some of the questions many people have
when they learn about us:
● Who are we?
● What are we passionate about?
● Why do we believe what we do?
● Are we all nuts?
(Spoiler: we're mostly not, but, admittedly, we are motivated and optimistic to
a perhaps nutty degree.)
After that, the rest of the book is dedicated to explaining how the empowr
platform will leverage each wealth-creating force to create a new web-based
Democratic Social Economyor DSEthat will improve the lives of millions of
people around our world. Or so we hope.
And finally, we'll wrap up with a discussion on how you can join the effort via
a number of avenues, including by easily becoming an empowr citizen and
participating in any number of earning roles in the empowr economy, as well as
helping some of the world's leading thinkers (in the areas of political science
and economics) draft our genuinely democraticinclusive and
participatorycrowdsourced constitution. When we're finished, together we will
have created democracy 3.0.
With that laundry list of goals in mind, let's dive into the heart of my
message.
How democracy saved the world
Democracy improved the world by ensuring that leaders aren't left in power so
long that they and their cohort become too comfortable or complacent.
By periodically refreshing governments with new people and new ideas, democracy
has facilitated many peaceful revolutions that have helped countries worldwide
become more prosperous.
Democracy has also created a culture of nonviolent conflict resolution, making
international cooperation much easier, and has improved relationships between
countries along with the global economy.
On a mild summery morning, a small group of seemingly ordinary men woke up and
jumped out of bed. To the casual observer, it appeared to be a morning like any
other, as people all over town woke for breakfast and a morning cup of coffee
or tea then went about their usual business. But this morning was different;
different in a way that would make headlines across the globe. Rather than pack
a lunch or grab a drink for the road, these unremarkable men awoke and then
loaded their backpacks with volatile explosives. They then proceeded to
carefully selected destinations and boarded vehicles according to plan,
brushing past women, children, and other commuters.
Once in position among the many human beings they had planned for months to
murder, each man detonated his explosives. As the bombs' powerful blasts ripped
through inanimate objects and innocent people alike, they took a bloody,
devastating toll. When the smoke cleared and the shrapnel settled, the lives of
many dozens of people had ended violently. One thousand others lay injured.
Bombing aftermath in London
People around the world looked on in shock as their television screens filled
once again with acrid smoke, agonized faces, broken bodies, and myriad victims
of yet another terror attack. Just a few years before, our world had seen the
monstrous new face of modern barbarism. Still, none of us had been truly
prepared for the next round of atrocities.
These July 2005 London bombings (often referred to as the 7/7 bombings) were
tragic almost beyond words, but they could have been even worse (more people
dead and injured) had it not been for the fast action and cooperation between
the United States' Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and empowr's phase
1code-named "SMS.ac."
Looking forward to your thoughts and comments.
I'll post the next part tomorrow...
