Preservation or Abandonment?


As a Senior Business Analyst, having reviewed numerous Business Models, I can offer this statement with confidence to the widest audience, “Eco-Socioeconomics is the only measure that dictates an operation success or failure”. Hence, Preservation or Abandonment.

Economic Problems, resulting from Mismanagement, inclusive of swings in Global Pricing, Technological Inefficiencies, and Operational Costings, are the fault of executives, hired and fired by the Majority Owners, failing the maintain the operation’s Competitive Advantage.


Financial Feasibility, based on economic factors, is popularly seen as the key measure, for without financial earnings, organizations which Distributed or Reinvested profits, will be closed.

Social Support, designed to maintain peaceful conditions, is very important to stabilize that needed economy growth, no strikes, unrest or insurrection, to bring operations to a standstill.

Ecology Earnings, set aside, are profits retained from preserving and protecting the operating environment, from natural disasters or climate change, can cause damages, fines or penalty fees to be levied upon the operation.

Therefore, any and all Investments made or to be made with Taxpayers’ Funds, must be independently analyzed and approved by the Parliament. Using timely apolitical Auditor General reports and the, free of bias, National Statistics Agency data, An Independent Office Of Budgets would have given Political protection to past failures and can guide as to future successes.

An Independent Office Of Budgets will report publicly and protect owners interest. OOB, acting as Corporate Sole, with access to prudent management reports; cash flow, income and expenditure statements along with changes in equity, with access to all Board Of Directors’ minutes and with all regulators reports, will adjust future projections as needed.

But to truly eliminate problems of Human Greed and Ego, the education system must deliver Civics Lessons to the wider population. An ongoing Campaign on and about the Nation’s Constitution. Changing the Electorate’s mindset. For Example, there are four branches of (what is publicly referred to as) Government; 1) The Parliament or Law-Makers, 2) The Judiciary or Law-Custodians, 3) The Executive or Policy-Makers, and 4) The Administration or Policy-Custodians.

Custodians of Laws and Policies, with Institutional Memory, rules and procedures, and in total control of their approved annual budgeted expenditure, are permanent judicial public service staff in charge of analyzing proposals, reporting back to Decision-Makers, and as, if and when necessary, upholding and implementing such approved Laws and Policies.

Makers of Laws and Policies are elected by voters and selected by serving members to seek the best for the Nation and rely heavily on the Custodians for ways and means, but cannot legally influence, hire or fire, or discipline the personnel serving under the portfolio. Noting that, Institutions not subject to public service rules; Parliamentary Committees, Statutory Bodies, Service Commissions, Regulatory Agencies and State Enterprises, are and can be controlled with the appointment of like-minded individuals serving on overseeing Boards.

Hence, to restore control over the eco-socioeconomic viability of all State Enterprises is the first role of An Independent Office Of Budgets (OOB), by publicly pronouncing on the Cost to Benefit effects on all proposed Public Policies, and the current and future projected financial condition of majority Publicly Owned Organizations. The OOB will filter Revenue and Expenditure predicted by such reports, on a timely basis, into the nation’s Long-Term Budgets, and Publicly disclose the forecasted eco-socioeconomic effects, to Preserve or Abandon, long before damage is done to the entire nation.
