analysis of the property ownership model of jehovah’s witnesses.
jehovah’s witnesses have developed a structured and financially efficient model for acquiring, building, and managing properties worldwide.
their approach maximizes resources contributed by members while ensuring that ownership and financial control remain centralized within the organization.
What amazes me is how developed the rewards/punishment system they have in place to get free labour.
If you give free labour to the corporation you are rewarded with status, a wife and lots of friends.
If you don’t give free labour you are ostracized by the group.
there are 1/2 of the jehovah’s witnesses that there were 30 years ago in my area.
some have left but i think that many have died and none of their kids stayed being jehovah’s witnesses.
7 congregations have been dissolved over the years.

We used to have 2 circuit assemblies with each having about 900 in attendance total of 1800.
They brought it down to one assembly and we had 1200 to 1300 attending.
Recently we have about 900 in attendance of formerly 1800

i was following a few threads in reddit from current pimo jws complaining about local announcements regarding halls being short on their per publisher "rent payments".
third gen and i have been out pomo for a while...so how much is this charge now?
could this be part of the recent push to get people to "come back" or get re-instated...if it even is online and 15 minutes of service per month?
They brag about not tithing but tithe

if you can stomach reading this brother's experience via this link, please let me know your views.
for one thing, i'm absolutely dumbfounded that this website jwtalk even exists considering all the warnings the governing body have given the org on not creating their own websites.
I found it interesting that two elders were on the phone with him, like a wrongdoing investigation.
The whole situation can be summed up
Don’t be a busybody…that’s our job!
just in.
a jaw dropping announcements and reminders for elders this month.
how can you serve as an elder and believe this organization is spirit directed after reading this letter?.
Because they meddled in what does not concern them.

Trump talks a lot and he is a good negotiator.
In negotiations if you ask for something unacceptable like Canada or Greenland giving up their sovereignty then the counterparty will be more agreeable to a lesser demand, which is probably what trump wants.
i have been away from the jw cult for many years.
i don't have any family i talk to that are in it.

quote from karoline leavitt, white house press secretary.
why is the media so against cutting waste, fraud, & abuse?'.
“we won’t be deter from people like you and the press, who are clearly adamantly opposed to cutting wast fraud and abuse.
Let nature take its course.
Here in Canada our liberal government is subsidizing old order media with our tax dollars
It’s a new frontier
