The solution to the current food crisis is small and local, including growing food locally. But how to fund local food co-ops without pricey loans from big banks? “Deglobalizing” and “dedollarizing” have been much in the news. Reducing dependence on the global supply chain and the U.S. dollar are trends that are happening not just internationally but locally. In the United States, we have seen movements both for local food independence and to divest from Wall Street banks. The burgeoning cryptocurrency movement is another push to “dedollarize” and escape the international bankers’ control grid.
Like you have always said Ellen, fund it with a Public Bank.
