   It  would  be  an  organization formed by small fair
trade  companies  that  would  provide greed-free basic
goods  and  services and infrastructures. It would help
to  redistrube  humanitarian  help (money) among needed
(unempowered)  people  and  not  among corporations and
their  agents.  It  would  be  necessary  to develop an
organization to manage such infrastructures. A powerful
UN  would  also  help  to corporations and their agents
don't get involved.

   Best wishes,

   Beni
