If they give back, why not.

I ain't down for the negativity in here man. Do y'all.

Give back to the cause and we all good. :yeshrug:

i think it has to be step by step, tho

first lets do business in our neighborhoods, lets own our neughborhhods, from the 7-11 to the real estate

the same tools and knowledge that you use to get a dunkin donuts are the same tools and knowledge you need to go international

I get you but...

Step by step in that sense is cookie cutter process.What I'm saying is, everyone is starting from a different point, if you have the opportunity to do business elsewhere, WHY NOT take it, and bring that paper back. Expand your influence.

1. We cannot OWN government housing which a ton of us live in
2. You never really own your neighborhood. It's the U.S land. You can RUN it and make sure the money circulates among your race, yes.
3. 7-11 isn't ran by only arabs or something? The "7-11" is some kind of religious thing, do they ever franchises out to other races? I don't know honestly.

1. exactly, that is why black people should be against public housing, the money being put into public housing should be put into home ownership, we should be celebrating the destruction of public housing and be focused on home ownership

2. yes you can own your neighborhood, if you have a title, the land and/or the house is yours, its not the government's, owning private property is the foundational principle of capitalism and the united states

3. anybody can own a 7-11 or any other franchise, you just need enough capital or credit, but the point is if we dont have the capital, credit and knowledge to own the 7-11 in our neighborhood, chances are we dont have the knowledge and capital to do international deals

that being said, im just making general comments, there are a lot of exceptions, and if somebody has a chance to make international deals then they should do it

Nice to chop it up with you holmes.

In regards to "owning any franchise," though I believe that to be inaccurate. You can have the capital and still be turned down, a lot of these corporations want certain standards that have zero to do with running a business. Chik-Filet is one example. I'd prefer we start our own things rather than making these people richer.

there are all kinds of franchises with all kinds of rules, and it is correct that you can have the capital and still be turned down and it is correct that there are other rules.....so what, its the same thing in international business, its even worse, at least in franchises the rules are spelled out

franchises are good because they are easy to start, in fact franchising is the easiest way to start a business, that is why you see so many immigrant groups owning franchises, i dont think you can get rich off franchises unless you own a few but owning one is a baby step toward bigger business deals and it will definitely pay your rent (or mortgage hopefully)

like i said, lets just talk baby steps, owning a franchise is just a baby step, if we cant do simple business deals like opening up franchises....lets just say that's not a good sign

LOL

i give it a :obama:

it looks like he is into some type of metaphysical stuff but besides that he's very right, thats what ive been telling people about ferguson, this protest shyt dont matter, if black people want to see changes black people need to focus on business and ownership, we need to double down on capitalism not run away from it
Right the metaphysical mumbo jumbo through me off a bit, but everything else seemed on point....

Gosh. The negativity.
He clearly says, someone may not like you, but will do business with you. You can use the pull of your cash to persuade them into helping your cause as well. It's a dirty game.

And who says you only have to do business with white people? I didn't know outside of the U.S that's all there were. :heh:
exactly a lot of people will put cultural differences aside if they see an opportunity to make more money. :manny:
