New proposal

Economic Equality working group. Proposal:

*put proposal here*

any purchase or rental or space should not be done with the capitalists

cc: are we saying in this proposal that OB is against capitalism?

ansr: no

cc: what is the actual list?

ansr: it is a non-profit.

cc: non-profit orgs are sometimes doing "good things" and sometimes "bad things", so should that be the best requirement?

ansr: then we pick non-profits that are doing good things.

cc: how about buying from individuals or the government?

ansr: that is also a good idea, and we use the same criteria of them performing "good deeds"

Breakout Groups.

23 people.

posing to the GA if we have quorum. No votes yea that we have quorum.

point that facilitation should help out with the proposal writing.

POP that this is not the right time to suggest that.

moving forward with the process.

concern: defining a non-profit. we have experience that some non-profits are very submersed into the capital process

c: there are many for-profits that are doing very good things: Southwest Airlines. Co-ops.

c: there are many people at OB that are "capitalists"

c: this is part of a larger conversation and there are other working groups that should be contacted

c: we don't have consensus as to what we want in terms of location, so this is jumping the gun.

support

s: support that we raise the value of talking about this now.

s:

amendments

a: instead of language of non-profits or for-profits, make a list of appropriate business practices we tolerate in the organization that we will do business with.

a: that it would be month-to-month not a long term lease if we do lease just in case this is a problem, and that the person goes to GA

a: do not put in language that we are buying or leasing at this point/

a: need to have detailed information about the history of the space.

a: language that incluces that whatever deal we go into should follow all of our previous prinicples.

since there is no quorum, then we are done with the process for this proposal.
