Common Good Democracy™ - Overview


Innovative direct democratic control is at the heart of the Common Good Bank design. In each Community Division, depositors direct the bank's investment priorities, contributions of the bank's profits, and local grants and loans of created money for the greater good of all. Economic democracy is crucial to economic justice and sustainability.

true democratic control

The Common Good Bank's Common Good Democracy™ is a hands-on 100% democracy (every voice counts) suitable even for large diverse groups -- a blend of liquid democracy, Condorcet, instant runoff, approval voting, internet voting, town meeting style discussions and a spirit of consensus. Common Good Democracy has distinct advantages over each of those components alone.
