All over the world, poverty is gradually giving way to cooperative economic activity. At the same time, there are signs that standard competitive free markets are failing.
Empirical evidence shows that cooperation works better than competition and that cooperatives succeed more often than standard corporations. Assumptions underlying the competitive system are that competition results in equity for all and that poverty can be eliminated through the market. These assumptions simply are not true. On the contrary, the rich get richer; the poor, poorer.
