The Center For Balance

- Mission Statement -

The Center For Balance is dedicated to achieving and preserving a "factor balance" between labor and capital, employers and employees, and wage-earning majorities and corporate powers. Wherever a balance of such societal and economic "factor" power is lost then all manner of costly distortions and exploitations occur within "free markets" and democracies. History is one long saga of the costly ruin created by the rise of factor imbalance, leading to either a debilitating fascism or socialism.
There is no question the factor imbalance scales greatly favor capital today at the expense of wage-earning citizens. Capital now controls our central bank, media, campaign finance and election processes.
In effect, the vast majority lack control over their own society, economy, and republic. Unfortunately, and unlike other more effective democracies, the citizens of the United States do not yet have a National Initiative process by which they might regain control over their fate and fortunes and right the scales of factor imbalance. Other serious reforms beckon and, were the factor imbalance in the opposite direction, then many reforms herein would be reversed.
Given today's reality, however, recapturing the laboring majority's parity and influence over the nature of free market economics, trade policy, and globalization is the task of the day. To this end The Center For Balance advances reforms outlined in the Executive Director's book - Cap-Com, The Economics Of Balance - and noted in Issue Briefs below.
