Hi Lovecats:

Please check out our "for profit" company that, for 70 + years, has worked (successfully!) out of a "fraternity-based" system of economics in contrast to a conventional "liberty-based" economic system.

Our brand/company is inspired by the contributions of Rudolf Steiner, a German philosopher, who predicted that the global economic pain we are currently experiencing would be unavoidable if we did not realign our cultural, legal and economic sphere to the appropriate principles of liberty, equality and fraternity. He offered the opinion that our current and perpetuating system-- where notions of "liberty" governed economics – was incorrect and damaging because "liberty", by definition, is concerned with self/self-centeredness while "fraternity" is concerned with others/service. More on the subject can be read at www.threefolding.org

Our company is lovely, fyi. Feel free to explore….
