The FCP Community Building Initiative

The mission of the FreeCapitalist Project is accomplished through three unique initiatives; the FCP Community Building Initiative, the FCP Political Initiative, and the FCP Personal Development and Leadership Initiative.  A quick preview of the Project’s approach at Community Building Initiative, is as follows:

Study Groups – locally organized groups of citizens committed to helping each other remain educated and informed while studying a preplanned curriculum of some of the greatest books ever written.  Pledges, I° members, members of the Producer Revolution and invited guests participate in engaging weekly association, study and discussion on topics most relevant to their lives and affecting their local communities.  The Study Group structure corresponds to what Jefferson identified in the ancient Anglo-Saxon communities as a “tithe” or “tithing.”

Round Tables – local leadership assemblies, where at least five active Study Groups are functioning in a community, with leaders selected among the most successful Study Group organizers.  Round Tables provide an opportunity for leadership and peer comment, criticism, feedback and assistance for all participants.  These structures correspond to Jefferson’s description of the ancient Anglo-Saxon “villages.”

Forums-FreeCapitalist Forums are governing bodies that work to improve communities, through organized and proactive civic service, with all members of a given region participating.  At least two Round Tables must first be organized.  Forums compete with local city and town governments-in a very friendly and appropriate way.  The best way to reform overgrown government is to demonstrate in local communities how volunteer citizens with no taxation and no coercion can better accomplish the tasks where government is currently overstepping its bounds.  These groups correspond to what Jefferson called mini-republics, townships or “wards.”  According to the Founders, these structures are the individual citizen’s method of combating regional, statewide and federal tyranny.

Councils – are County, State, Regional, National and organization wide bodies that administer the Project, oversee its initiatives, and are responsible for events such as the national and international FreeCapitalist Conferences.

This description is just the tip, of the tip, of the iceberg of our movement.  There is really no way to fully or adequately describe what has taken generations to make possible and years of our efforts to implement.  The best way to learn is to take and finish the FreeCapitalist Pledge, thereby becoming a basic member who can get started at the most basic level with Study Groups.  This plan, according to Jefferson, forms—

…a gradation of authorities, standing each on the basis of law, holding every one its delegates share of powers, and constituting truly a system of fundamental balances and checks for the government.  Here every man is a sharer in the direction of his ward-republic or of some of the higher ones, and feels that he is a participator in the government of affairs, not merely at an election one day in the year, but every day; when there shall not be a man in the State who will not be a member of some of its councils, great or small, he will let the heart be torn out of his body sooner than his power be wrested from him by a Caesar or a Bonaparte.

By completing the FreeCapitalist Pledge, individuals are enabled to start, immediately, making a difference in the world  thereby separating themselves from those addicted to the perpetual talk of “do-gooders.”  The Project’s basic membership opens up a world of personal improvement and community involvement.

The Project’s Community Building Initiative does not just apply to any one area, any one State or even to the United States alone.  The Founders revealed to the world a way to structure government that, for the first time in man’s modern history,  ensured individual liberty, peace, and prosperity. We have members throughout Europe, North America and spread across the globe in several countries such as Japan, Indonesia, India, Ghana, Germany, Netherlands, Ireland, England, Mexico, Chile, Brazil, etc.

Many people today are wondering if Barack Obama can make the world a better place.  But, it is not up to one man, one executive, or to any group of politicians.  It is up to a statistically significant, organized group of citizens who are willing and able to make a commitment to principles, to work together, to unite with each other despite their flaws and faults – and implement this plan.

Our invitation to lovers of freedom everywhere is to get on board.  Becoming a member of the Project, by taking the PLEDGE, is free.  This Project is not about money or business or vacations or cars or houses.  Its about life and liberty and happiness. We are actively recruiting men and women across the globe to usher forth a moral revolution to sanction and complete the political achievement of the American Revolution.  Are you willing to stand up, take the pledge, and give something of yourself to this cause?

The Project’s basic membership program can bring about life changing experiences, introduce new ideas, new people, new relationships, new opportunities and most importantly— a new way of living for all those involved.  There are lots of excuses and reasons to hold back – but there is one undeniable reason to look past all of them.  If not you, who?  If not now, when?  If not this movement, what will you be doing tomorrow? – Project Founder, C. Rick Koerber
