Editing Common interests

'''Common interests''' are what characterize a [[corporation]] or [[union]] and most [[political party]] structures ([[ideology]] does not motivate most ruling parties much).  Very often there is tension between these interests, and the [[economic choice]]s they imply making in common, and the [[common values]] that people might rather pursue when there is no economic [[groupthink]] pushing them a certain way.

[[Types of countries]] tend to be defined more by common interests than by say adherence to [[international law]].

Getting people to declare common interests is quite difficult.  The whole [[financial capital]] system makes it easy to hide who has what interests in common with who, and this has only gotten harder to track with [[globalization]].

[[Essential projects]] tend to be those that have common interests ''and'' [[common values]] with [[Consumerium]] - other than that, there may be nothing more we can say.  The [[Consumerium Governance Organization]] will have to make day to day decisions about where to trust in other projects' or groups' common interests.
