How much will you pay someone with an MSEE degree?

Your website is long on pep-talk, but short on details.

Ultimately the most anyone would receive would be an average salary for there field.

I am looking for a few people start this project with me the main motivation should not be monetary
it should be to take this concept and breakdown the details and bring it to fruition.

Count me out, then.

Amen. And even if one is altruistic he still has to pay his bills.

Exactly what problems are you aiming to solve? Your site is too general and looking at it I can certainly see why you need computer skills and writing skills.

And what would make your search engine unique?

I just don't want to become part of the 99% who get exploited by the 1% for their fun and profit!

I think you missed the whole concept of the site........The main function of the organization is that it would function just like
a corporation EXCEPT all the profits will go to expansion of the entity and SOCIETY ...I will give a few examples.

at a certain point we have a few profit generating business's with in the entity we can....

start and energy company committed to finding energy solutions for society .....from a platform were the main motivation
is solutions for society NOT profit .

The same goes for the pharmaceutical industry .....All money would go toward those type of causes ...objective science needs an
objective platform with objective money.

The site IS not helping the 1% and ALL money would at one point be given back to the 99%
The current 1% control everything and set the path for the rest of us because they control all the money
and the only way to make any kind of difference for the rest of the world would be MONEY .

At this point this is only a concept it is vague .......The whole point to this is to form a group and from there systemize this
...This would NOT be a dictatorship or MY project it would be the groups with some kind of power structure formed from within
elected from within.

I own a business and would be willing to donate money to start the project ........right now it is still a concept with no details
because it goes against the concept its self for one person to systemize the whole project that needs to be done from a
group who has high moral character.

If you try to run a society non-profit or give all profit away to people that are incapable of competently investing it, not only do you kill economic growth but you also kill everyone's motivation to give it their best effort!

I have sold my soul to Allah, and what do I get in return? I get weapons and skills. Allah is a pretty good dealer. You sound as a not pretty good since all participants here speaks against you advantage. From here on, your expected to change your course. You should not accept living with this failure. I probably got no reason to tell you this except one, I "feel" for you. If you do not feel for me, then we can part. If you don't feel for your project, then you can part. ... And where will you go?

It sounds like your intentions are honourable and I think I see what you are envisioning. But have you thought about the problems with such an endeavour? There are powerful organisations in the world that would crush anything like this without lifting a finger. Governments would not support it either.

Agreed. My engineering skills are worth something more than what any "non-profit" organization can afford, and any organization that does not re-invest in itself will fail. Furthermore:

a. Any organization that does not value its employees will fail.
b. Any organization that does not pay its employees the prevailing wage (or better) does not value its employees.
: : Any organization that does not pay its employees the prevailing wage will fail.
