Atypical Collectivism - the gifting economy

Not theft or slavery
Not obligation
Not guiltiness

Gifting economies ride on two
compelling heart strings

need and worth

It’s faith
in reciprocity
in sheer mass of kindly
similarities

It’s hope for possibility
knowing how
80 percent can be

It’s love
knowing that
delaying gratification
giving forward
on gratitude

is symbiotic with prosperity
upright honest capitalism

a far cry apart
from short sighted
greedy
dishonest

...corporatism
