2. The System- How it works
(A bank is a financial organization/institution)
Shareholders vote on a board of directors, or
managers of the company. The board of directors
hire the senior employees-the bosses of parts of
the company (not all of them;some get promoted
from lower ranks) The seniors hire and fire the
mid-level and junior employees, come up with
strategies to run the business, and to market the
products they sell(through stocks). The mid-level
employees organize/put the strategies (the seniors
make-up) to action. They also hire the junior
employees, and do day-to-day business. The
juniors actually DO the things that the strategies
include, and do what the mid-levels tell them to.
They are like the followers of Jesus. Every 3
months, the seniors write a report to the board of
directors, to let them know how the company is
doing.

7. Rights
~Positive~
Everyone has the right to a contract-basically a legal agreement. A contract is also an
agreement to work, and to not just sit around all day and get payed for nothing. Everyone also
has the right to a fair paycheck, which may be money, or shares/investments in a company
(the shares can not be sold for a period of time). The senior employees have the right to make
decisions for the company, and for the decisions to follow through-for the employees in the
lower ranks to DO what the seniors tell them to do (not do it how THEY think is right.). But, the
middle ranks and junior ranks DO have the right to try and change/recommend something the
seniors mind-they can call in a meeting.

8. NEGATIVE RIGHTS
The juniors don’t
really have a say in
how the company is
made, even if they
have a BETTER
idea than the seniors
(in how the company
is run). They would
have to move up/get
promoted!
