Why Companies and Investors Should Hedge American Start-Ups and Small Business for Long Term Growth (Delta County Hedge-Equity Fund Conception)

Rebuilding Americas Glory
Using Our Past Ingenuity with
Modern Investment Tools
2021 Picture

Investing is great and some people who do a lot of investing in a way that makes them and their institutions significant money. Awesome! Much of the wealth many have experienced over the past few decades is concentrated into fewer and fewer hands leaving perceptions that government is skewed toward large business and in turn killing off small business and towns (Don't point fingers...it may not be intentional.). That creates a responsibility (or potential opportunity depending on how you see the world) to develop policies that encourage investors to build and hedge (perhaps funds of) start-ups and new businesses for mid and long-term national growth (That is assuming they still care what happens to the country. I suspect most do but they don't have the policy, plan or action to make it happen! That is not a reflection of any leadership but a chance to think about new opportunities and where we likely must go!)

I've looked at some policies out there and found that I may agree or disagree with policies and have come to a partial conclusion that both parties often argue for or against each other's policies but are missing a bigger opportunity because of inappropriate argument anchoring (meaning the arguments determine their "reality" and in turn skew the understanding of  full factors). Its an opportunity that could help rejuvenate our small towns in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan as well as throughout the nation. We have an amazing workforce and if we dig into our garages and backyard sheds we are likely able to dust off that old entrepreneurial mindset to provide opportunities for the average American. We have a chance to rebuild our spirt that helped lead the world for a long time.....and do it better then we did in the past. 

There are a couple of quick advantages I can see....

1. Companies gain more innovation from small business and their new ideas which makes them more competitive....even when they are forced to adapt to compete, buy, or fund these start-ups. Creating new businesses, buying start-ups, breaking companies up, etc... all are part of the process of creating a growth oriented environment where there are new ideas and the financial resources to scale them.

2. With online changes more power can be in the hands of entrepreneurs to share, sell, and market their ideas to an international buyer. Creating pathways to the international market to small businesses can help grow and develop promising prospects into spearhead international products with the right investment (Which when maximized can reverse the polarity of our supply chain.

Esky could use a

to augment their offerings.
None currently exist.
Jail is open for development.
Maybe a store with dock access would
be nice. Put a hotel, wine bar/brewery, coffee shop,
market, fish guide, water rental place, etc...

We send out more value and products then we bring in (A growing system that can sustain itself.). Policies can be created to not only help small business service their communities in meaningful ways and in turn set them up for future international growth ( A business could service their community through meaningful entrepreneurship. For example someone might start a fruit, vegetable, fresh Great Lakes Fish and meat market in Escanaba that also provides opportunities for local small farmers to easily find a direct market....or global market. Perhaps something more along the lines of designing a new widget for automobiles in Michigan or even something as simple as making specialty ergonomic furniture for handicapped and people working at home in the arena of custom fit desks and chairs. They are just examples that when a good idea hits it might lead to the growth of a local-regional industry.)

3. We can give all the social classes opportunities to develop and fund them in a way that creates greater connection between the classes (Remember Karl Marx believed in the Das Kapital: A Critique of Political Economy we would have social class conflict and capitalism would fall. See Marx' Crisis of Capitalism. Of course it didn't happen yet and maybe never will. However, there are some underpinnings so we should be sure we are creating lots of opportunities to grease the capital machine with opportunities for our diverse society.). We can minimize/correct the divergence of the wealthy and the rest of society as different people. We can reconnect through our mutual interest in developing our nation and developing our people. Instead of forced future wealth reconciliation we create an environment where we make it much easier for the common man/woman to develop their ideas and sell them. That requires the wealthy to think about how they can enhance their position while enhancing everyone else through investment. (In small towns like Escanaba the rich and poor often live in the same neighborhoods making them intricately connected; most...there are a few who are "above" the rest of society....in their minds because one of their grandparents gave them the money. In large cities where most Americans reside they live in hypothetically different worlds. Pack Investing and JP Morgan)

4. With lots of new start ups we can attract more investment and business interest on a global scale. Companies go where they find opportunities, competencies, infrastructure and ideas. (SME Delta County and Delta County Start Up)

5. The recent Infrastructure Bill could be used to catalyze businesses of different sizes leading to a diverse and stable economic environment that is more resistant to international supply chain and economic shocks. (When the money is spent well and furthered by corporate interest it is possible to maximize the advantages of that infrastructure change. Having infrastructure that a diverse array of businesses can find advantage in leads to more resilience than a few large U.S. industries. Better to have new industries developing all the time.

6. We can bring back manufacturing and business opportunities to rural communities by funding new small business, start ups, and coordinated community marketing (like in places like Escanaba, Gladstone, and others. Information and Investment and R&D Delta)

The biggest problem is not necessarily "the will" but the vehicle of how to pool these funds together to minimize business cycle risks while maximizing higher profits through break outs (Meaning having investment opportunities that take into account success and failure in business through pooling of capital). That becomes an  IRS and issue for lawyers (yikes!) and that may be part of the red tape problem. We need business development to be simple, easy to navigate, and able to coordinate with others to find pathways to new resources and markets. 

Side note.................

That is probably enough for a blog post. I think I confuse people with my long winded rhetorical writing. The details are important but they are limited by the ability to connect the dots. Something I'm trying to do with my Interactive Cluster Theory For Innovative Growth. Actually, I have them sort of connected but each piece should be justified in detail....which draws from a huge body of research and knowledge. You can sort of see how the articles rewrap into each other and when it becomes fairly seamless it is tied like a "bow" with an internally consistent logic that covers most of the essential factors and higher chances of implementation success. I suspect its possible to see if we connected all the links together, which we are not really there yet, we can find a self-contained type methodological system with supportive data from a diverse level of justification. 🤷 Think at your own risk.)
