Competitive Economic Development Strategy Ideas

Industry Manufacturing Strategy Ideas:

• Use available idle American facilities for manufacturing development science research for new materials application and assembly methods while providing testing and technical training for new ideas.
• The strategic focus is on intensive construction manufacturing engineering for new construction designs and methods [potential science R&D international cooperative for natural resources infrastructure development balancing international society development governance].
• Integrated development objective for energy science into new construction and product manufacturing design methods. Collaborating interests: (1) Product and Architectural Design professionals; (2) Manufacturing engineering science; (3) Earth and energy science engineering (4) Corporate R&D laboratories with patent rights agreements [international intellectual property rights enforcement strategy].
• Improve development in Latin America and specific regional American manufacturing capability using comparable technological + scientific required productions. Initiatives financed by American banking system and corporate agreements utilizing related identity American community human capital resources providing economic incentives for continuous  multi-region educational development.

Science and Technology Development Strategy Ideas:

• A business and technology development plan with New England natural science expertise, U.S. Southwest natural earth resources energy expertise, and U.S. West digital computing systems expertise.
• Encourage state universities business development centers project idea development teams to include appropriate technical colleges, career interested advanced high school students, and technical / business consultants [expanding collaborations].
• Cooperative collaborations within a Global Commerce Network Innovative Business Development System ["registered" investment cash flows through banking system].

Evidentiary Social Political Science Theory

Social Policy Development Theory 

Global and Regional Economic Development

Previous analysis reflected the importance of the economic development in the Americas and the strategic relevance of Latin America to the western hemisphere development. This presentation supports that analysis and includes some aspects of religion, ideology, and political policy considerations as part of the Western civilization economic planning. Strategic development ideas on manufacturing, education, technology, science, and engineering development will be presented in a later posting.

Computing Technology and Education System Modernization

Here is more explanation of using technology to improve the education system and reduce cost [or at least reduce the rate of increase]. A 'quick' cost comparative analysis that does not evaluate the complete education system impacts due to a lack of structural information, but is to provide new thinking for system improvements integrating beneficial technological advances.

**I have not forgotten the Modernization idea follow-up related to (education) organizations and industry collaborative improvements to enhance innovations and economic growth.

Regional Planning and Development

Regional Planning Presentation

Development Metric and U.S. Organized Fraternal "religion" Ideology Economic Development Systems (Reasons to improve Development Governance Ideology):

Also related to economics of U.S. Southern Plan agreements and "family" relocation as a youth from Massachusetts to Alabama via my mother's marriage [social policy plan obligation??] Alabama politically influenced directives: US Army; "fraternal black family" religion [beliefs/system (methods)]; [Intelligence organization network ethnic+racial social policy, demographic influences, & "church" geography + Humankind agreements];  Pre-1970s Southern "church" future economic strategic planning [since 1965 civil rights legislation].

Economics reflect cumulative implementation of political policies influenced through the incorporation of beliefs + interpretations. [Southeast region: lagging U.S. economic development metric indications; Asian + German auto assembly (import market access); conservative ideology against industry employee collective bargaining for non-executive levels; conservative Republican political ideology based leadership (organized relationship beliefs management) of economic distribution variability reflected in collegiate football industry economics].

Can organized authority system claim power + control for situational developments and not reference leverage factors targeting situational individual morality inferences?

Fraternal conservative political organizations' "morality" economics exploitation [industry and technology] control and protection system methods of influence [re: Alabama Files + Black "family" infiltration secret cover for Southern Plan ethnic+racial "family" policy + political leveraged entertainment industry economics]. Humankind conservative political finance, genetic science knowledge usage relative to [informal policy] religion beliefs, influenced usage of stereotypes and organization structure; civil rights "order" "royalty" economics plan?? 

Sex identity 'ego' social psychology creates politically beneficial "morality" exploitations:  Industry fraternal privileges designed around sex identity 'ego' psychological economic hierarchy reasoning; Fraternal industry economics for non-public inter-ethnic relationships; political leverage policy support influence; distraction from the privacy and civil rights violations to obtain information; limits social-economic healthy, balanced competitive intellectual male development psychology.

Strategic reflections: Educational economic value development versus political demographic [ethnic+racial identity religion based] voting group numbers advantage [value development vs. volume development].

History of human civilization economic development notes that all previous development expansions are preceded by political organizations' policy disagreement constructs; wealth accumulation concentrations; and demographic morality policies of ethnic+racial heterosexual relationships & authority.

Summary Corporate Performance Analysis Supplement

To assist in interpreting the performance summary, the patterned logic is: (1) Business process stage identifier; (2) industry category descriptions; (3) regional performances; and then (4) performance relationship to summary averages. Remember, some included companies did not publicly report financial performance and regional industry performance reviews should include the region's Development Metric [GDP+wages/earnings distributions].

*Adjusting for the represented company's negative performance for Europe in the Resource Conversion and Distribution stages, the regional performances would respectively be approximately 10.1% and 10.5%.

Presentation

Economic Development Metric and Business Process Profitability

The graphic titles are fairly straight-forward in explaining the consumer market development economic issue. However, I do want to make note of a few references within the Business Process Summary comparisons. The summary total for each process stage is a non-weighted, non-adjusted average of the industry example companies. Europe's Resource Conversion and Distribution column averages would both reflect above 10% adjusting for the negative profit performance industry examples.

A generalized comparison of performance differences among the regions could include the social policy preferences in Europe and the United States; Latin America profitability compared to Human Capital Development; and Asian growth led by China's increasing competitiveness (at this time, mostly government controlled industries) adding to Japan and S. Korea's development history relationship with the United States.

Presentation

Corporate Performance Comparisons: United States, Latin America, Europe, and Asia

This presentation represents a continuing effort to reflect a comparative business industry dynamic and additional explanatory comments may be required. Nonetheless, using available reported performance information on international companies / industries within the outlined segments does create a profile for discussion around economic strategy, development, policies, and corporate relationships.

Corporate business benefits from certain control systems that warrant review against legal protections to men and women's individual rights' issues including provisioned civil rights conflicts of interest reviews against any fraternal leveraged contract exploitation(s) where necessary [outside the Civil Rights Legal Division religious organizational influences].

Performance variances among the regions have to consider interpretive differences in geographical competitive markets, market structures, and  development status. The companies were selected based upon publicly available performance information categorized using company provided descriptive business summaries relative to regional industry. The performance percentage summary is a non-adjusted, non-weighted average of the 2010 performance impacted by representative selection. Nonetheless, the comparison provides insight into relative performances and regional policy economic system development structures.

Organized Belief System Economics [Analyses]

Systems of Economic Development

Geometry II: A Continuation of Theorems and Proofs

Literalism and social methods are evident in efforts to maintain a focused ordered ethnic-racial [economic] identity management objective. Heterosexual inter-ethnic sexual morality issues are related to ethnic-racial identity authority for social-political-economic and demographic relationship management. There are over 16 Merriam-Webster human family identity relationship definitions. 

Using fraternal "family" ideology for religious-ethnic-racial relationship leverage is evidence, in my opinion, of attempts to establish universal ideological order similarly related to the historical genetic lineage of my great grandmother and grandmother. It also explains the methodology leverage used in group identity "order beliefs" economics.

Development Systems

Public Education System and Modernization

Technology and Innovation Integration: Digital Textbooks

Current political discussions have been focused on spending reductions consistent with conservative promoted platforms. Also in political focus are the modernization needs of the public education system. Just for the record, I do not believe that begins with reducing the number of employed school teachers. However, I do have an idea that would satisfy both political debate arguments and has already begun at certain university levels. The digitizing of public education textbooks coordinated through the collective action of national public education institutions for the purchase of tablet computers and developing digital textbook standards. The savings should allow the incorporation of tablet computers for all program students at no cost with access to an electronic internet portal (similar to iTunes store) accommodating all technology operating system platforms for each school district to download the required digital textbook per registered class. This additional technology integration would primarily:

1. Reduce per student textbooks cost;
2. Allow access to internet computing technology for students that currently do not have the option in their home; and 
3. Increase the public education environment dynamic as a leader in innovative learning. 

The benefits of adopting this approach create a platform to distribute continuous education and learning via internet access of select class lectures.  Certain universities are currently testing the applicability of technology for this type of usage and there is no reason why the public education system cannot lead the way. It has greater budget pressures than the university systems and early adoption as a national testing center serves the purpose of the education system while improving community service through technology. My next planned commentary on the public education modernization idea will continue with a focus on university Business Development Centers (Business Incubators) and a strategic collaborative emphasis on human capital employment.

Governance Perspectives and Development

In continuation of the Development Metric themes within American industry economics, this limited presentation shows some of the derived corporate benefit from conservative economic policies. The current unemployment data is from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics website. The noticeable narratives collectively begin to reveal the growing economic divergence behavior within American society relative to methodology of human capital industry employment and financial capital accumulation with a growing focus on international investment developments. The purpose of this analysis is merely to reflect historical development [strategic religious interpretations usage] and allocation strategies within the economy regulatory policies relative to values and valuations.

Evidentiary Identity Theory: Theorems and Proofs

07/21/2011 Update: Addition of equity terminology
Statistical correlations provide insight into relationships among economics, religion, beliefs, and actions for certain relative situational narratives. Providing additional understanding to U.S. human ethnic identity formations and political-social and economic demographics [church-fraternal-military organizations].

By its definitive nature, political based "Family" religious ideology can be described as discriminatory [economic identity valuations] against defined U.S. American and International law. Organization, Structure, and Order applied in the Social Science context implies a methodology of identification, allocation, and segmentation which reinforces the discriminatory divisions between ethnic-racial groups and within the identity groups. Combined with economic activity concentrations for determinative industry allocation and the use of ethnic-racial heterosexual morality definitions as a planned procreation exploitation demographic strategy [evidentiary to my childhood Southern relocation from Massachusetts to Alabama (re: Geometry I story-line)] for humankind "family" identity and religious interpretations. Ideological humankind race creation authority leveraged against economic opportunities as proof of defined humankind relationships identity strategy with "evolution" "creation" interpretations. This ideological approach emphasizes authority control over development relative to Constitutional interpretation political debates. Also, directly reflected in the unity beliefs of fraternal "family" religious authority demographic strategies to justify literal interpretations of stereotype traditions. Social strategies as evidenced through my maternal grandmother's lineage to the "fraternal" network attempted inculcation of my nephew (sister's son). Historically supported as an informal ethnic-racial identity religious based social policy economic management system used for politically divisive advantages. However, these tactics create more challenges than control solutions [re: determinant criteria and contextual interpretations].

The United States of America was formed based upon the idea of human individual capital & expanding resource equity  [not human capital ownership] development contributions to collective interests expanding development beneficial to the population with regulations and rules to maintain a protected civil society. The efforts to maintain imposition of these ideological structures reflect the conflict in representations of church and industry economic governance tactical strategies relative to identity and "family" (religious) authority practices. It is just as important to understand what the political-fraternal-military-social "church" believes relative to personal beliefs to recognize system trained tactical policy and economic objectives.

Theorems and Proofs

Naturally, this blog posting leads to a social-location relationship analysis of research organizations, religious organizations, and economic interests/development context of the U.S. Southeast "family" identity ideology and exploitative morality politics.

Good Faith and Cultural Identity

Analytical organization of experiential publicly available information. I make no claims as to perfect truth!! U.S. conservative Ideology history ["order" philosophy methods cloud sharing], Fraternal networks, and Domestic US military (1970s Massachusetts to Alabama childhood relocation; FinanceMBA). Historically consistent is the opportunistic fraternal/family collaborated, leveraged exploitation of ethnic-racial morality genetic relativity development to maintain political-social advantages segmentation. Used throughout all of American & Western history for changes of political social and economic development expansion actualities. Black is a descriptive color in a spectrum of colors applicable to a variety descriptive uses not a human racial determinant identity. Nor a religious identity worship [signal] for potential [contextual usage and economics] discriminatory exploitative order segmentation fraternal society tactics! [Political social humankind identity reproduction religious authority exploitation planned collaboration of stereotype narrative, or change leverage??]

Importance of Context

Economics of U.S. Bank Performance and Industry Investment Allocations

2010 Banking Performance by Business Segments

Revisiting previous analysis regarding U.S. Banking performance, this update attempts to identify the successful business segments of banking activity. Other presentations reflected the levels of assets accumulated within the banks and profitability [ROA] performance. Using the business segmentation comparison provides more insight into the areas of business investment. Not all annual reporting uses directly comparable terminology for their business segments so, the placement of revenues and profitability may slightly vary. However, a clear idea of bank performance is still evident as Investment Banking (equity underwriting and valuations, M&A); Investing and Lending (trading activities); and Corporate & Consumer Commercial Banking. Included as a result of the analysis are the areas of competing strategic interests and  the profitability of Wealth Management and Global Card Services.

Global Economy and Competitive Development [Growth Scenarios]

I am currently using the World Economy Comparison presentations as foundation to model various growth scenarios. The analysis variables are by country / region using economic growth and population growth estimates over a 10-year timeframe. The most likely analysis estimation with the greatest variance to experience is the global rate of population growth. The analysis presumption is that greater economic activity will reduce the rate of population growth which also means an estimated increase in global economic participation. 

This was not planned to be a forecast of the global economic future. However, it was prepared to give perspective on the impact of economic growth relationships and international economic alliances.

Comparative Incentives and Interests: Government and Business

Updated with commentary: Although not specifically stated, Development encompasses international economic commerce of manufactured goods and services' markets and diplomatic relationships. Generally seen as an ongoing, implied responsibility. Government institutions refer primarily to the regulatory-legislative, judicial-legal, and education systems. Skill employment includes both skilled and non-skilled defined labor. The technical reference is recognition of a company's employment objective(s).

Reasons for strong central government, regulatory organizational structure, and inequality economic focus measurements for better distributive balance.

Business Industry and Profitability

I was recently thinking through the relationships of business, industry, and profitability compared to the general outline used in my blog themes. So, I attempted to categorize a sample of businesses using the Basic Summary of the Business Process to obtain a "rough" measure of corresponding operating profitability. Many arguments can be made for some of the companies in the reflected categories relative to their business and industry contributions. Generalizations on functional identity had to be made and their respective traditional structure definition difficulty "game changing" contributions show in the comparative operating margins. The innovative, integrated nature of many of these companies means that operations encompass more than one of the basic categories and industries.

What becomes very apparent is the impact on profitable return compared to control/ownership of resources: Natural Resources, Intellectual Content, Distribution and Allocation Methods. Although not completely reflected in this summary analysis due to multiple factors including timing is the housing "bubble" impact on industry. Lumber, homebuilders, and realtor businesses are operating at best, break-even. The financial industry which distributed the funds financing the "bubble" seems to have absorbed the industry risk and continue to remain profitable due to their infrastructure role in the US economy [Just a thought!]. Operating margin data used is the latest available reported annual earnings where available (FY2010).

The United States Constitution with Amendments [Foundation]: A Moral Reflection of Evolved American Values

Constitutional development was a result of competing ideas on societal governance related to group or “family” differences of cultural traditions. The basis of the Constitution recognizes the relative importance of religious beliefs and various interpretations. To accommodate differing perspectives and remain consistent with the duty of societal governance, the document emphasized the protective liberties and rights of every person within the U.S. authority; including flexibility of the people to live according to these belief systems without violating individual/personal rights and related freedoms of choice. These initial recognitions were based upon religious moral foundation recognition of all Human Value existing within humanity since Earth’s creation.

Freedoms and choice recognition established within the legal and social design creates the adaptability within societal governance for a coexisting population. However, maintaining respect for individual human rights free from exploitation is a requirement. These include the right to choose a relationship partner irrespective of ethnicity and relationship commitment procreation decision rights anywhere in United States of America. Humankind manipulations that violate rights [human simulation] to alter development determinations inconsistent with this legal rule basis of society should be considered illegal acts and crimes against humanity.

Evidence of these intended protective rights and liberties are evidenced in the created organizational systems structure of governance: Executive, Legislative, and Judicial government segments; Individual rights and human protections; Religious independence recognized in separation of church and state; Federal and State legal systems with Appellate system processes as a balanced check against bias and concentrated power/loyalty/”family” authority rule; historical economic industry development and regulatory legislation. 

Taxation Concept for Competitive Development II

The following presentation updates the Taxation Concept for Global Competitiveness with an idea for how the industry categorization approach could work. Included is a reflection of the current industry tax contribution based upon the Industry Summary of the Top 60 U.S. Companies document previously used in the Corporate Financials blog.

A clarification of the proposal using the “Flat Tax” terminology was not an idea altering the United States' philosophical application of the progressive tax system on earnings. In my opinion, a federal income tax based on sales revenue increases the investment technical calculation breakeven hurdle limiting economic expansion and business creation. Political opposition could easily make the case that the government is placing collection priority ahead of the American people and their earnings.

Global Competitiveness [Taxation Concept] and Industry Relationships

Metropolitan Based History of Economic Development

Economic development has historically occurred within cities as a result of a collective marketplace of goods, service offerings, employment, & entrepreneurial opportunities. Photos in this blog post reflect historic locations of metropolitan economic developments. An important fact to notice is the concentration of development between the 45°N to 15°N lines of latitude. The benefits of collective interest based Economics are evident in metro development as are decision impact differences and influences among Education, Social Well-being, and budgeting priorities of Social-Political community agreement processes (Southern political philosophy development correlation) resulting from taxation policy & allocations. Suburban development is the beneficiary of successful metropolitan economic development expansion to reduce population overcrowding. The Metropolitan Areas Development Metric analysis supports the fact that city and urban development leads (leading indicator) to statewide economic development attributable to collective resources utilization. 
The advantage of using the Development Metric calculation method minimizes the variability impact of population and economic activity estimates from Wikipedia and the CIA World Fact book (or any other data source) against data manipulation or claims of inaccuracy. The variability of estimates has very little impact relative to the comparative calculated Development Metric value. 

Metro Areas Development Metrics

Taxation Concept for Competitive Development

Much of the political debate regarding business policy occurs with differences attributable to the varying “languages” of interest groups and government's comparable functional role. The assumption is that all are working for the future interests of the United States of America. Considering this in addition to the analysis of the current competitive standing of the country illustrated in The Global Competitiveness Report, here are some ideas regarding the taxation and policy debate.

My blog post The United States and Global Competitiveness summarized the common categories for the very top tier countries of competitiveness and personal thoughts on the socio-economic development relationships. The derived conceptual taxation strategy includes these important competitive factors similarly identified in the World Economic Forum’s competitiveness report methodology structure. This proposal creation identifies categories for industry assignment and tax rate development considering: A) Utilization and depletion of resources factoring environmental costs of disaster cleanups and necessary government public safety regulatory concerns; B) derived Infrastructure impact benefits [“hard” costs of interstate maintenance, airport and air safety, national utilities system maintenance and upgrades; “soft” costs of institutional (education and legal) demands on human resources development and general government administration]; C) the American community social and economic development flexible funding for investment into future competitiveness; and D) Security and National Defense interests. The Rate would apply to all industry companies within  the category. 

Currently, the conceived industry category groups are:

Basic Factors                                                  Efficiencies

I.  Natural Resources (Utilization and Depletion)      III. Service Oriented

II. Infrastructure                                                V. Other Pass-through (Income / Consumption) 

Innovation

IV. Knowledge (Education) Based – [Science & Technology Advancement]

This approach incorporates many ideas from the taxation debate and social interest groups to tax industry with equivalent relative matching to the “tax” on global development. The factored “flat rate” for each category includes environmental and social impacts; patriotism for U.S. interests; contribution to U.S. future development while protecting the interest of generational contributions; and redefines the debate terminology with a perspective of all vested interests during times of budget and spending reductions.

Global Competitiveness (Taxation Concept)

The United States and Global Competitiveness

The United States has long been considered the pre-imminent global business environment as a result of the development of the country’s resources identified by the valuation as the world’s leading economy. Globalization focused development of critical resources for commercial growth to improve standards of living has increased competition and will force critical decisions to maintain the recognized leadership and global strategic position.

Review of The Global Competitiveness Report of 2009-2010  from the World Economic Forum, the United States is ranked 2^nd overall and ranked within the top 5 of countries in four of the twelve evaluative categories:

Market Size…1     Innovation..…1   Labor Market Efficiency….3    Business Sophistication…5

Also recognized by the report committee, the variables of determination are not mutually exclusive to determination of successful, progressive economic performance. However, it is clearly understood that providing quality education and maintaining a healthy population are very good for societal development toward such a goal. Both are current topics of political discussions. The following summarized version of the Global Competitiveness Report reflects the United States ranking within the 12 categories of study along with the identification of the top five countries within each. Given that the U.S. is currently ranked 3^rd in Labor Market Efficiencies, maybe political-legislative discussions should focus efforts on other areas for improvement. My personal data inference from review of commonalities among the top ranking competitive countries is that strong (1)Institutions build  (5)Higher Education & Training opportunities leading to (12)Innovation creating (9)Technology Readiness and (6)Goods Market Efficiencies.
