EP 108: Will the A Corp Change the World?

Another example of what you can get through the A and what the next job will be in Colorado once the law is passed, the very first thing we're gonna focus on,

Art Problems
EP 108: Will the A Corp Change the World?

But if we can create a corporation as a new legal structure, then we will go to insurers, to health insurance companies starting in Colorado, and we will advocate to them that we need to make a group plan for artist corporations.

Art Problems

In the same way they have group plans for different sized businesses, we want a group plan.

Art Problems
EP 108: Will the A Corp Change the World?

We want a group plan for Acorps because we can show you, hey, there's 5,000 of these or whatever the number will be.

Art Problems

And there should be a group plan for them that's a quality plan, that's good price and will get us off the individual plans or actually get us health insurance.

Art Problems
EP 108: Will the A Corp Change the World?

That is one way.

Art Problems
EP 108: Will the A Corp Change the World?

Yes.

The other way you could do it is like freelancers union where you create a meta org that you can belong to and get insurance that way.

Art Problems
EP 108: Will the A Corp Change the World?

But the very first thing we will do once the laws pass is work to get insurers to embrace this.

Art Problems
EP 108: Will the A Corp Change the World?

And that is an example of the sort of benefit you get if we crowd into the same form.

Art Problems
EP 108: Will the A Corp Change the World?

Right.

Art Problems
EP 108: Will the A Corp Change the World?

And so you can start to get things like health care, who knows, workers comp, who knows where this might go.

Art Problems
EP 108: Will the A Corp Change the World?

But it's every other person who is an employee in America gets things like this without even thinking about it.

Art Problems
EP 108: Will the A Corp Change the World?

And we don't get them because of structural issues.

Art Problems
EP 108: Will the A Corp Change the World?

And we can change the structure.

Art Problems
EP 108: Will the A Corp Change the World?

And by changing ourselves to a structure, adopting a structure that is more legible to those systems, because it's not like they're designed to exclude us.

Art Problems
EP 108: Will the A Corp Change the World?

We just don't fit the template of how they look at the world.

Art Problems
EP 108: Will the A Corp Change the World?

So create a form that makes us legible and I think allows us to be included in the system in ways that make sense for us.

Art Problems
EP 108: Will the A Corp Change the World?

Yeah, definitely.

Art Problems
EP 108: Will the A Corp Change the World?

I think the ACORP has a lot of utility for an individual practitioner for the reasons we've mentioned, but for groups especially, because that is where it's very easy to get into trouble with creating informal partnerships or things that who has liability is often reflective of.
