No longer a movement, no longer an ideal?
"We sold out the magic of financial cooperatives - [link Chip Filson blog] - not for the sake of
being understood for our contribution and confidence in people acting
together. Rather the goal became putting a number on who we are... "
The "new/new" leadership... "strive to be evaluated and on par with ideals that are not the drivers of our member-owners’ success."
"These market driven criteria have a hard time with the ideals
of community ownership ... where acting and living the purpose is
far different from cashing in. "
"This is not a good look for cooperatives. Their “worth” was never meant as one ready to be traded, abandoned ..."
😎 Every credit union member should stop and take a "look at what's going down"...
Irrelevant? Worth less? ... Worthless?
