Building up known interests is nothing new - the problem is having leverage against companies that were nice all along, and then suddenly do something bad out of the blue. I'm sure that Ford's management from 50 years ago never could have dreamed the way today's executives operate.

I see now. I don't think that an investment group is the answer. I suppose that we should first look at what's causing the problem if we hope to provide an effective remedy. The problem is rooted in the fact that liberals have worked to gain influence with large companies and their effort has gone largely unchallenged.

The good news is that we're larger in number and resources and most of America shares our view in these matters. This is a subject that merits a thread of its own as we'd need to discuss and discover how they've managed to gain so much influence. Then it's simply a matter of using those same methods.

The challenge would be discussing it on a micro level rather than simply writing it off to large things that can't be readily fixed (they control the media, the universities, and so on). For example, I know that they made an organized effort to become members of corporate boards and have gained influence in that way.

I'm all for you starting a thread on it's own and building a PING list for such topics if there isn't one.

I'm skeptical we can do more than some very serious and crucial stop-gap things in the short term but that those are very important to do.

I believe that the major international corp's evolved into such powerful conglomerates through the elite old boy network. Some secret society stuff, no doubt helped but their networks are pretty entrenched and not all that permeable. Some assert that they've been at the globalist goals we are seeing so increasingly evident currently at least 400 years.

Be that as it may, I think it would be very powerful to identify folks of great humility, wisdom, integrity, great business sense, creativity, innovativeness and kindness in leadership of companies of whatever size. I believe those folks will overwhelmingly be conservative and overwhelmingly be authentic Evangelical Christian. I believe a significant percentage of them will be Charismatic/Pentecostal.

I think we could start with FREEPERS. And all of our personal networks. Do we know anyone in the highest ranks of corporations/partnerships who fit such criteria. Few people would score high on all such criteria but high on 3-4 would be sufficient. In some respects, humility and wisdom would be sufficient.

I'm not just blowing smoke. I've thought about this for decades. It is clear from 59 years of watching that God blesses those who play by His rules and major in His majors and minor in His minors. It seems silly not to take advantage of that in at least ferreting out such organizations and helping conservatives and believers to profit from such identifications.

I think the political fall-out could be significant and crucial for our Republic, too.

WHO KNOWS ANYONE who owns or runs a company with such qualities? Let's start a list.
