Interesting idea of only investing capital with conservatives. I read many years ago about Indians, from India, would give a small amount of money each month to be pooled with money from others, that would then be used to start a business. That would then be paid back over years. Maybe it is something as conservatives should be thinking about.

Start a bunch of small businesses, deal with each other as much as possible, thereby strengthening, or at least helping, each make it through the coming bad times. 10,000 people kicking 10-25 dollars a month could start some small at home businesses. Map it out what would be needed.

That’s called a mutual aid society and they used to be quite prevalent before insurance companies and welfare agencies.

Interesting.
I like it.

I’ve wondered how they snatched up all the gas stations.
