(1,250 posts)Oh I know they ain't gonna play fair & that's where the ruthlessness comes in.
I EXPECT them to do the dirtiest of tricks but I know that we outnumber them in the end.
I can poach their staff. I can poach their suppliers.
I can orchestrate a media campaign that makes people not want to buy anything from their companies.
It's gonna take master strategy but it can be done.
One thing I know about systems is that we made them so we can alter them.
Any system can be altered & manipulated.
They're just virtual machines. You just gotta know what cogs to move.
Hiring is easy & if you go to unemployment offices & start picking up people off the bat no resumes needed, they will work hard for your company.
They will be dedicated to you because you helped them in their moment of need.
Hang out at the temp agencies & even go on the street corners & hire homeless folks.
Go back to teaching people on the job.
Word will get out so fast that this company is helping people, they will be FLYING through the recruitment centers.
Cross-train the people & advance them to other fields.
It allows you to open more businesses.
It DOESN'T have to be about just the bottom line.
It's all in your mentality on how business should be done that governs this.
You invest in your people & they will return the benefits to you.
Ask Nintendo that game company.
Smallest staff of the big game console manufacturers & yet it is one of the biggest companies in all of Japan.
The CEO of the company preferred to cut his salary by 50% instead of fire his workers when the company struggles.
Microsoft made $21 billion IN PROFIT last year & fired 18,000 workers.
Nintendo has staff that goes back to the early 1970s back when they were just more of a card/toy company.
One of those old staff members was one of the braintrust behind the Wii console & its design philosophy.
Wii was that megahit as you know.
I'm brainstorming as I write these posts.
It's gonna take me awhile to come up with surefire strategies that account for every angle.
But I know I must outthink them & outplan them.
What I really want to happen is that the staff working in any startup I create get enough to start their own.
I don't really WANT them working for me all their life.
I would use this business game as a chance to create more businesses in the model I set.
And the sheer numbers of people working in this capacity eventually will overwhelm these oligarchs.
The oppressed always outnumber the oppressors.
I will ALWAYS consider physics in my plans.
These sheer numbers will be overwhelming.
Right now I work in a 9 to 5 trying to make ends meet like everybody else.
I plan on one day starting something that sparks the wholesale changing of how this country operates.
Once I build enough savings to get started I will begin my plans.
And it might not be overnight but one day what I start is going to change this miserable ass country.
I don't care about mansions & fancy cars & fancy clothes.
I'll probably STILL drive this 24 year old car I'm driving now.
Can't live in that much house & wouldn't want to (who's gonna clean it?).
I can only drive one car at a time.
And what am I gonna do with all those clothes?
I'm FORCED to care about money because of necessity but I don't need much more to live on comfortably.
With that out of the way every single dime goes to this mission.
I'm gonna put Ujamaa into practice & dominate with it.
Cooperative Economics is the Revolution that will transform America.
Play the money game just like a videogame & beat 'em at that game.
