the sorts of broken system list I have is below- but I dont know where is the safe space to connect and inter-action these sorts of system change; I dont see how we are going to get american youth back to believing and spending their time (and leveraging their career potential) on yes we can communally collaborate in changing these deep system cancers unless our brand integrity times where and when to make this sort of investigative journalism and conversations unstoppable
There is nothing wrong with people, it’s the systems
What did governments do wrong
They stopped representing the people and became trapped in favours to big lobbyists – see what even obama hasn’t begu to reform @ wall street and how healthcare’s big interests are trapping him
They took away the commons and community spaces by licensing each new media to the highest bidder – ie from mass tv to mobile technology, government licensing of media became a stealth tax- looked like a windfall so that in short-term government didn’t need to tax but in long-term communications were used to addict, stop asking humanity’s big questions, turn us all into big brothered sub-beings celebrating trivial pursuits , unable to see the internet’s greatest possibility is to unite the human race in ending poverty
They took away change and learning in educating our children – all they cared about (rewarded for) was the image that exam results were going up – the last thing we needed in a world where bottom-up diversity and networking collaboration needed to be what kids explored and questioned rather than believing that one set of man-made rules is superior to nature's micro system interactions (As a maths person it amazes me how global mesurement professions are shredding all the advances made by von neumann and einstein - the former explains the higher order value multipliers of collaboration networking, the latter gave mathematical encouragement to Gandhi's map of system transformation beyond empiredom)
They took away economics – sponsoring economists who modeled their false systems as correct paid for by the big get bigger, the short-term get shorter. As my father wrote back in 1984, mass media and government have combined to turn macroeconomics into disgraceful political chicanery in which all adam smith's free market transparency assumptions have long since been revoked– in effect macroeconomics is the mastering of how to make systems every more expensive, ever less purposeful in terms of serving/compouding solutions to vital needs, unsustainable and corrosive of trust. They continue to license global professional monopolies to rule over peoples in ways that make everything less economical. Conversely this is why if you study any productive and demanding value exchamge system (eg social business) that has taken out ownership by the biggest and the short-term you can now start compounding 10 times more economical and healthy societies. You can support people's lifetimes in maximizing their own creative flows and time spent at the experiential edge of their own deepest competences and communal goals.
Poverty is the artificial government system of place and other hidden interest agendas that is system designed to deny that the earth has enough resources for 7 billion childer-to-adults to work productively and innovate vital services and knowhow collaboratively. Such a broken system cannot be expected to compound sustainable consequences for any being in our ever more interconnecting world.
any clues on where to connect up this investigation would be great

America is most unlikely to succeed in sustaining 5 million green jobs in ways that unite people across states and communities unless it maps 10-win across these coordinates spinning no conflicts of the kind that become another wall street where one coordinate becomes a big power and takes from all the others. Below we list how places that are succeeding in communalising green jobs connect 10-wins

Societal demands of credit for the poor, internet knowhow for the poor and green energy triangularise around the same map. Some may find it paradoxical but economic value is also systemised around these foundations. This is partly because nature is very contextual in the way she treates biomass mapping. She expects one waste output to become another system's local input. People who globalise a standard cannot expect to biomimic nature's microscopic interactions. Their giant processes compound ever more waste both in its own boxed in way and where it tries to interface with other global boxed-in designs. It is for reasons like these that the carbon energy world's largest organisations seldom find serving edgy innovations of solar -or other clean energy maps- fit their modus operandi. This is neither a social nor an economic reason for letting them block rapid deployment of clean energy- which is as abunadant as we choose to work it.

*productivity entrepreneurship & 5 collaboration games
Bangladesh -with its microentrepreneur 1 2 networks - is a world leader in creating green jobs, installing more solar units than USA. Lesson #1 appears to be - connect every rural community to the opportunity of green jobs through internet centres - it would be a disaster to have unequal access to green job creation (just like it would have been a disaster if USA had only connecetd some of its states with highways)

Energy is ultimately about liberating productivity of people. While linking green energy across the USA may not be a case of giving poor people electricity for the first time as it is in bangladesh , the principle of how can green energy liberate the poorest is the most sustainable starting place we can imagine mapping for developing 5 million green usa jobs in the most sustainable way. The economics of solar are such that returning value produced by the energy to the community should be the primary gravitational focus of yes we can’s first wave of connecting green knowledge for and by the people.

- Topic: NOV08 -linking your place to the greatest collaboration month the www ever interacted
- n invitation to your state's networks to get collaborating as if there will be no day after tomorrow, or a state that you believe could do more in connecting digital divides if its people united win-win-win
Here's a go at wake up California - not a state I have found even 1% as collaborative as it could be, but one where i will spend 72 hours anmating as many http://collaborationcafe.tv as I can
Hi Thimmaka
I thought you might be interested to know that on night of Nov 16 to end Nov 18 Melanie hosts The Global Summit http://www.theglobalsummit.org/ is taking place in san francisco. This is one of several events aimed at mapping how to raise collaboration potentials of people.
California's tech museum is celebrating Muhammad Yunus as internetworker for the poor Nov 10 - his ending of digital divides started in 1996 when he introduced mobiles into Bangladesh's microcredit networks - Grameen's 7 million female end poverty entrepreneurs. Grameen's microcredit dna was never just the safest worldwide banking system! It lent money so that the world's poorest women could create jobs and sustain their chidren and community; every 60 women had their own village space, and weekly sustainability review. These were separated until mobile telephone ladies came along. It was rather like introducing a telegram office in places that previously had no conatct with the outside world. The system inspired Obam'a mother to do likewise across Indonesia and womensworldbanking; it inspirred the clintons to set up microcredit banking in arkansaw; it beacme the number 1 action mission of Queen Sofia of spain . Not for nothing is Bangladesh proud to publish the handbook : The Great Advocacy of which leaders over the last 2 decades, where, have praised what aspects of MICROentrepreneur networking
Today http://www.grameensolutions.com is leading partnerships with mobile innovations - eg aimimg to bank a billon through mobiles with an Indian partner, and all of bangladeshi's microcredit networks (over 100000 facilitators) have helped since 1997 in the most human network process known to me http://microcreditsummit.org . This people's network has achieved more for progressing millennial goals than the rest of change worlds because it has both an open and a replicable franchise planted amontb the poorest of the poor. Soon LA pop group http://thegreenchildren.org will bring out the empower album with the theme song of ending digital divides - you can hear me now
My friends and i are trying to connect 10000 youth in a good news dilaogue. We have 10000 free dvds for folks to host parties with. Each has 25 good news video conversation starters- many of them scoops that Bangladesh social business entrepreneurs have kindly made specially for this http://yunus10000.com - love to hear from anyone who like to host an event - this is just one project of a forum citizens around the world asked whether they could identify Dr Yunus name http://yunusforum.net http://muhammadyunus.org with when he became a nobel laureate in 2006. california was one of the first connectors of this intercity collaboration movement
When I met Dr Yunus in Dhaka in new year's week, I almost fell off my seet when he said : isnt it tim eto co-create 7 newtorking wonders - not just microcreditsummit, but // people's summit on health, energy and water, media, education, government, collaboration professions including making SMBAs more popular in every city than MBAs. There's a lot of open networking to do if we are to cross-culturally live up to this 68 year old's collaboration wish. we offer $500 to micropublish world citizen guides if any community has a proven goodwill practice they want to share worldwide
Soon californian educational revolutionary -and a star of www.ted.com -sir ken robinson brings out his new book on how we systemised schools the wrong way round since the start of empire; wrong way round that is if you believe in flow's measure of productive , free and happy economies from drucker's claremont team: what % of your life time is spent on experiential edge of your unique capability to make a difference
At individual level, my main networking cities after work in 30 countries are east coast USA, London and some european cities including paris and badcelona, and dhaka and delhi, and I hope Johannesburg. I will be in san francisco for the first time in a decade Nov16-18 ; love to eet anyone interested in collaboration particularly if you like some good news dvds! We try to collate news of where the opposite movement to wall street's global down crashes happens at our avowedly microeconomics and collabration (sustainability above zero sum) space http://futurecapitalism.ning.com/
I recall T group has some great practical idea to bring ecology to food and cross-cultural markets. Great to meet anyone. With new american leadership this could be the perfect time to show that superpower can be used to facitate human collaboration between each and all of us

- Topic: 7 summits to save the world
- y to unite peoples around yes we can focal gravities of sustainability
there are at least 7 peoples summits to urge into being and we have a model that has worked for community banking http://microcreditsummit.org to be the most successful networking and meeting process ever humanised
its lessons- set a huge goal; get the famous -and elite development bodies eg world bank, UN - to celebrate practitioner news; insist every action group collaboratively publishes its progress and plan to share at each summit - could be applied to microsummits on
energy
health
education
media including mobile and internet for the poor
professions including what all redundant bankers and MBAs could do- right now we cold eg be hosting large pen spaces in new york and omndon and other old capitalism cities
egov and microgov
If you are up for trying to develop one or more of these summits please say which and what networks we can map as being interested in connecting this
what's the first thing we could ask someone like muhammad yunus to do to help your choisen summit move on from concept to reality? who else ould you approach to unite his collaboration influence for community sustainability everywhere

- Comment on: Topic 'please define collaboration particularly if you wish to add to our first attempt'
- licable franchise and competence fit to do that - which I know you all are a world leading attractor of
media in the widest sense of meetings, maps linking networks that reward collaboration, open sourcing , put people who are exponentialing end poverty on the same maps whichever local context they want to help first - we try to help a bit at http://yunus1000.com to enable 10000 youth to be this "yes we can " wave
funders (advised by community accounting professionals) including community owned banks who wish to engage the poor in develping the world and franchise social buisness governed models or others that ensure that health and wealth is invested back into communities not just accidentally siphoned off to wll street
in 10 years of searching collaboration networks I have found clubs of people good at networking at one level but who haven't had a clue they need the other levels too
so far its only true microcredit bankers that seem to invite networks to connect these levels - or of course the most savvy of billionaire philanthropists if anyone is lucky enough to be trusted to be in-network of such a collaboration world changemaker

- ommunity and then defaulted on its loans
But I am not sure we the people needed Creative Capitalism breeding alongside Future Capitalism. Its probably not Bill's fault that economics has sunk so low into macro junk that the mass media no longer bothers to demand defintions that have mathematical consistency. Future Capitalism is mathematically consistent. what Creative Capitalism is looks like endless noise to me but I'll eat my James Wilson hat if Bill proves me wrong
