I was born in a small town in central
Idaho.
My family always struggled surviving the economic impact the world's economy has
had on our region. Recently I have been able to help with a project that
will change the way our society thinks when it comes to world economic trade. I
am looking for support for our idea. Here is a small sample of our thinking!
Our world finds it necessary to transport things back and forth across the
world. When this is done the cost of doing business increases to the point only
certain people can afford to participate. As these people are getting richer,
the poor are getting poorer and less people can afford to participate.
Our solution is basic common sense! Keep the money in the communities and let it
regenerate itself and spread the wealth out to everyone. The way to start this
is with the transportation fuel. The county of Lemhi, Salmon,
Idaho uses
approx. 3.6 million gallons of transportation fuel annually. Of this only 2.4%
stays in our community. The rest leaves and is consumed elsewhere. A large
portion ends up profit to only a handful of people's pockets!
If we develop a sugar
beet to ethanol
facility that will start with the 10-15 percent needed to blend with gasoline,
this will get us producing locally. We then increase production as technology
and common sense overcomes the population. Eventually we produce 100% of the
fuel needs of our community and surrounding towns. This amounts to $10.5 million
annually and will regenerate to $28.5 million each year! Our county's annual
budget is only $7.5 annually! This would bring approx. 168 jobs back home.
The
beautiful part of this idea is the value added business this facility will
create. A dairy was in our community until the last 5 years, when greed took it
away. A cheese factory to support the dairy also lost to greed!
A local commercial greenhouse and
cannery can both be here. As we develop these industries back into our community
the support businesses will increase and presto we are disconnected from the
volatile, unstable world economy. There will be more money for our schools,
social programs and healthcare for all! Poverty will be all but eradicated;
obesity will be reduced as better food is available and can be all grown
locally. Trade will still be a part of the scenario as each community exceeds
the needs of their community!
The
benefits to the environment, with the reduced transportation and excessive
consumption, the use of cleaner fuel and
growing plants
to make fuel will completely change the negative effects of the last 100 years
society has had on our world!
Opponents,
such as the oil companies, will say this will ruin the trade needed to help
develop ways to sell our products and help the developing world. I disagree,
this will give every community in the world a chance to keep the profits in
their community and spread the wealth to everyone. The opponents to this idea
are the ones with the most to lose! Big
business! Wealth! Major Profits! The winners are the people that do all the
work, not CEO's and Wall Street!
There is a lot more to this idea and the financial support is hard to get as we
have found out. We need help teaching our idea to the public, it's simple,
support your community first and then everyone can enjoy life! The way to
equality is supply the needs of your community within itself first.
We need help as this idea is very complex and we are below middle class people
struggling to put this together. Our government policy is funded by special
interests and they are against any reform for the benefit of the people,
especially when it is their profits. Can you put together a documentary and help
us get support from the people? Help the
people realize there is a common sense solution to all the world’s problems and
that they are right here locally in the people’s hands, screaming for attention!
