What is Public Benefit?

It is too late, rebellion has started. Unbridled extraction of resources by large corporations has drained opportunities from every community, devastating many people, leaving fewer choices.

MaayaData offers an alternative to burning down a lifetime of work. By enabling community people to make informed decisions faster, people can overcome propaganda and bad information by using science to make really good decisions exceptionally fast.

We use public benefit contracts to lock in rights - legally.

The MaayaData Model

Please Read, Research and Share​
MaayaData believes it's time to expect clear answers. Our "Public Benefit Contracts" make this question impossible to avoid, requiring measurable evidence of how actions truly help people, not just shareholders. Isn't it time we measure the benefits these organizations claim to provide?

​With the help of algorithm experts and people familiar with bartering and affiliate models, we are encoding it now.

This model recognizes cash flow or dividends separate from equity, defines public benefit and accounts for adjustment events like changes to investor pools or allocation of cash flow. It enables cash flow allocation flexibility without corresponding equity structure changes, offering profit sharing independent of equity ownership.

History

By 2024, billionaires broke enough laws to buy so much of our government that communities everywhere have lost almost everything. 

​Public Benefit Contracts offer a better way. They create real accountability by requiring clear proof that actions help regular people, not just shareholders. It's time to demand proof of public benefit.

​We can measure and document public benefit. MaayaData builds this accountability directly into our system.

​Disruptive Public Benefit Shifts

​Before 1776, the process of forming corporations was tightly controlled by the monarchy, requiring a royal charter, where the Public Benefit of corporations was set by the King of England. 

This method significantly limited corporate formation, as it placed the power to create and recognize corporations, within the legal structure of the United States of America, solely in the hands of the monarch. 

After July 4, 1776 the New York State Legislature was the new authority responsible for granting corporations authority to operate. The side effect: erosion of moral accountability.

In 1811, New York introduced legislation that simplified corporate formation by allowing limited liability incorporation by application to the Secretary of State, simplifying the process.

​In 1919, Dodge v. Ford Motor Co., the Michigan Supreme Court held that Henry Ford must operate the Ford Motor Company in the interests of shareholders vs. to benefit employees or customers.

​This laid the groundwork for arguments commonly used by corporations and their lobbyists, promoting the controversial idea that a corporation has rights similar to those of an individual.

Corporate Greed Broke America

By 2024, corporations gained considerable influence over Federal and State governments, primarily by giving money or threatening to take legislators jobs. Keep in mind, at the Federal level legislators are paid over $174K/year and have staff/office budgets in the millions. While at work they have no supervision and are accountable to nobody.
​
In contrast, the focus on Public Benefit by initiatives like Public Benefit Contracts is a move towards accountability on a national scale. The people can enact new laws to hold members accountable.

​Legislate Public Benefit

It's time to legislate public benefit and require measurable proof.

​Using a contract is a direct action, enforceable upon signing, without the need for incorporation. This saves time, cost, resources and overhead. By separating cash flow from equity ownership, the contract empowers organizations to prioritize community benefit while maintaining financial sustainability. It quantifies public good value, ensuring resource allocation maximizes positive impact.

This model fosters collaboration, aligning stakeholders' interests through a transparent profit-sharing framework based on measurable public benefit contributions. It encourages sustainable practices and long-term value creation for shareholders and society.

The MaayaData Public Benefit Contract offers an alternative to traditional models, enabling lasting positive impact while maintaining economic viability.

​Public Benefit Measurement

Using Public Benefit Contracts is a pioneering approach that positions these agreements as a powerful tool for community development.

These contracts enhance the mission by actively engaging and empowering communities to develop better agreements from the start.

​Central to the strategy of Public Benefit Contracts is the emphasis on grassroots collaboration, beginning with community leaders who play a key role in identifying the financial and environmental needs of their communities. This leads to the creation of a sustainable and eco-friendly supply chain.

These contracts encourage all parties involved to consider the community's interests from the beginning. This approach fosters a reciprocal relationship within the community, promoting a balanced cycle of resource and knowledge exchange.
