Why is the social impact of a Commons Society greater than other forms of social impact investment?

It creates a sheltered zone within the free market that perpetually invests in the human and natural commons
It is a systemic intervention in the market that develops a perpetual expanding investment fund that communities can focus towards their own best interests and changes the landscape in which business operates
It creates a new legitimacy for business
It makes the intrinsic but utterly hidden meaningful nature of work overt
It is holistic – truly encompassing our myriad concerns and activities – weaving them into a social fabric that will better support us all.
