FW: blog

 

ok so here goes, how do we build community,, churches once did it, synagogues, both still do it, temples..how aobut liviung communities, walkable communities, energy efficient communities...and more // all good, all important, all necessary for changing the world back.. a carless world, a world, with homes for all, affordable, tax paying long term stakeholding community citizens, who care and want the American Dream..Feast or famine..hi end, shiny coifed developers come in, and tie up properites for years...and havent developed their lands, havent made it happen in ways that are important for the future..gentrifying people, who spend their money, small as it was,daily at small businesses who in effect get gentrified, while we wait for the big guys to comb their hair another way hoping they put a shovel in the ground... while they get politicans and WAG coverage, due to how nice their suit looks...in the meantime the American Dreams get pushed out more and more..this is the quest and stupidity of single minded development based upon peoples view and development from the outside in, instead of strengthening existing businesses and citizens, lifting them up, and then creating more small businesses and venture capital for those who want to try a new idea..right now four business men and women come to me and say Jim let me develop here, let me start here, let me make it happen here...and make it fun...how do i do it, how do we get there, how do i get capital...the COMMON SENSE FUND INITAITIVES ARE COMING..mark my words...

with that in mind, stay tuned..combined with affordable condos in downtowns, the GREEN MACHINE  will move ahead...God bless, more to follow jjk
