God's Green Earth, by Mr. William Taylor

Scarcity vs Unlimited Wealth.  If you believe God gave us a world with limited
resources then you will believe in scarcity, which will lead you to the conclusion
that God cannot want us to be wealthy because that would use up the resources.  If,
on the other hand, you believe in a loving God who wants us to be happy and
successful, then it doesn’t fit that God would set up a world where the only way we
could achieve happiness and success is to take from others.  There are many
references in the bible that God has given us a “Land of Plenty”.  That he rewards
those who work hard and have Faith.  This thinking leads you to believe there is
actually unlimited wealth available to us, and God has given us the means to create
unlimited ways to expand our riches.

Nomads vs Farmers.  Abraham was the first man we know of to recognize property
rights.  He bought land, and a cave to bury Sarah, his wife.   Nomads hunted and
gathered what the land had to offer.  When it was spent, they moved on.  This
changed with farming.  The land was found to be bountiful and with specialization,
and hard work, the land produced more.  God’s covenant is that if you have Faith and
work what is yours, you will be rewarded which you in turn then share  with others.
Specialization allows continued growth of wealth as people become better at what
they do and are rewarded with technological breakthroughs  (e.g. we now have more
oil via “fracking” than the rest of the world).  When people are allowed to improve
their lot and keep the rewards, total prosperity has no limit.

This process means the more economic interactions we have, the greater the bounty
“Givers Gain”.  This is the opposite thinking of those who see the world as a big
pie with the only way you can get more is for you to take away from others.   The
exhaustion of resources has been predicted by this thinking for 100's of years.
Innovations come with the hard work of entrepreneurs.  The naysayers then have to
go back and recalculate new “dooms day” predictions.  In a sense they have faith
that nothing will develop or be created which changes everything.   Example:  The
oil crisis / gas shortage in the US was ended in the 70's by introduction of fuel
injection (25% increase in gas mileage).  The technology was resisted by America’s
Big 3 car manufacturers via tons of money invested in mfg of carburetors.   A few
imports with fuel injection changed the mind set of the public, and foreign cars
gained a permanent place in our car industry.    

Market America is a business plan that offers the opportunity for an entrepreneur to
actualize the above principles.  Market America’s plan allows you to share your
achievements with others by placing BV’s (commissions) below others who can then
convert them (BV’s) into cash.   The amount of people you can help is unlimited.
For example, if you buy $130 of wholesale products, you get 100 BV’s which you can
place under a person you sponsored.  The 100 pts are worth $15.  That means you just
shared $15 of your benefits.   The pts go up the ladder and every person above the
person you just helped, also gets the opportunity to convert the 100 pts into $15.
It could be a thousand people. 

Then you get the 100 pts and you convert them to $15
to your own benefit.  If there is a Not Profit Organization (NPO)* in the system,
the NPO (Church for example) also gets the $15.  You also get the retail profits
from selling the products which should be about 30 or 40 dollars.   God says: “you
move towards me, I’ll move towards you.”   In MA all the people who receive the 100
pts must do the business first in order to be able to convert points.  They must
have found 2 partners first before they can convert pts into dollars.   Think about
it, everyone in MA can do this.  Every distributor can multiply his bounty for
others and even NPO’s.  Everyone can share the bounty of their business with an
unlimited number of partners and an unlimited number of NPO’s.  You can also have
numerous businesses in the system which get to participate in the bounty as well. 
For example, if you have a second business in the line where you sent the 100 bv’s,
that business also gets the opportunity to convert the pts in- to $15.  That would
mean you would actually receive $30 from your $130 purchase of products. 
This process creates an atmosphere of mutual respect and positive feelings of
support by those who have chosen to do the business  (developed 2 partners).  The
fact that you receive BV commissions from others doing the business, naturally
causes you to want them to be successful and grow their business.   The bottom line
is that by  sending commissions below to others (sharing in your bounty) and still
getting  them back, you actually can “have your cake and eat it too.”
It is “givers gain” at its best.

* Market America has opened the system to NPO’s.  They get the same rewards as
distributors but with no cost and no requirements.   They passively reap the rewards
of other people’s work.  If people decide to buy products directly from the NPO’s
website, the NPO also gets retail profits in addition to BV commissions.

Introduction to Karl Williams

Karl Williams is a retired businessman.   Karl and his wife, Carole, started Karl Williams, Inc. in 1978, selling printing equipment and supplies.  They were the oldest Ryobi printing equipment dealership in North America, having won multiple sales awards during their time in the business.

Karl and Carole sold the company January 1, 2011.  Carole retired, but Karl has picked up the pace on one of his side businesses he has been involved with for 48 years:  antique racing boats.   To be more specific, 1929-1951 Johnson and Evinrude outboard racing boats.   Karl is involved in all aspects, from the manufacture of parts to repairing and building the engines.

For 15 years Karl has also been involved in the health care supplement business.   Becoming familiar with a variety of companies, he noticed that most have one “flagship” product that carries the business.   Then he was introduced to Market America by the same person who introduced Bill Taylor to the company.   He realized the Isotonix line of products makes Market America light years ahead of any other company  in this field. Karl's main objective matching people who want to be helped with products that help.

Karl is proud of the new owners of Karl Williams, Inc. who have taken the company to a new level of success.  He likes to think he helped in that both of the new owners now use the Market America products which they have found  addressed the health issues they were experiencing. He is also one of the founders of Economic Opps.
