I AM THE ECONOMY!
If you're wondering what this is all about it's simple - it's all about you!
We need to go back to basics, what is the economy? Economy is the human activity that consists of producing, exchanging, distributing and consuming goods and services. At its most basic, the simple answer is: I am, you are, WE are the economy!
How can we help improve the economy? It starts in your own community:-
- spending money locally
- using small independent businesses
- buying locally raised & grown foods (also known as food patriotism)
- using local goods & services
- investing in local business
- participate in "Ten Dollar Tuesday"
You have a role in your local economy - isn't supporting your local community/neighbourhood/economy better than getting a deal on cheap products from foreign importers?
Shop locally - good for you, good for everyone!
