They’re talking about it everywhere. The hypothetical: What if Big Tech gave 50% of their stock to every citizen in America?
On the surface, it sounds like liberation. It sounds like justice. It sounds like the check we’ve been waiting for.
But as I sat with this idea, my mind went back to everything we’ve lost—and everything we’ve rebuilt. I’ve seen what happens when wealth hits a community that doesn’t own the infrastructure. I’ve lived through the boom and the bust. I’ve learned the hard way that access is not ownership, and dividends are not power.
If OpenAI handed me shares tomorrow, I’d be a shareholder in a system that still decides who gets hired, who gets loans, and whose culture gets erased. I’d have a piece of the pie, but no say in how it’s baked.
Real liberation isn’t being given a seat at their table. It’s building our own table.
This Sunday we’re rebranding
The Circle to "Blaqsbi Barbershop Talks"—because this is where the real talk happens. No filters. No corporate scripts. Just us, figuring out how to turn noise into strategy.
We’re going to dissect this "50% Stock" myth.
Is it a trap?
Is it a distraction?
Or is it proof that we need our own ecosystems (like Cashback Invest Global) even more than ever?
Come ready to speak your truth. Come ready to challenge the narrative.
