How are You Transforming the Way Your Community Works with Money?

By Marta Abel

"How are you transforming the way your community works with money?"

That was one of the questions we asked the five recipients of the RSF Community Capital Scholarship to attend the 10th Annual Business Alliance for Local Living Economies Conference. This year's BALLE Conference was in Grand Rapids, Michigan. RSFers Melinda Cheel and Jillian McCoy sat down with these folks --hailing from Alberta, New Orleans, Spokane and places in between — to hear more. Check out the video playlist here to hear from grassroots leaders working creatively with capital to transform their communities. Fun fact: one of these scholarship recipients was just elected mayor!

Lyrics:
My name is Vermin, Vermin Supreme
And you can vote, you can vote for me.
For president if you want?
And my name is Vermin, ?and uh, okay.??
Do you still stand by your pony pledge??
Yes, I do, free ponies for all
Turn all that pony poop to methane gas.?
One more thing, Jesus told me to make?
Randall Terry gay -
He's turnin' gay, turnin' gay!
Whooo Whoooo!??
Thank you, alright, okay.??
And all the un-gay is melting away!
He's turnin' gay, turnin' gay!?

Not a single straight gene in his DNA
'Cause he's turnin' turnin' turnin' turnin'?Turnin' gay!

??Our instinct says everybody should vote
but some people are dumb - and they shouldn't vote!?
The kids are not paying attention -?
Yeah, on election day give 'em detention
This endless cheerleading -
Let's go to the rock concerts, register the kids.
All the kids are so stupid, stupid, dumb stupid.?
Speaker Gingrich, do you propose kids work as janitors?
You can hire 30-some kids for the price of one janitor
Those kids who get money, cash money.
Light janitorial duty - get money?
Work in the cafeteria - cash money
Cash money is a good thing if you're poor
Get some cash money, then get some more.
Imma help poor people learn how to get a job
Imma, imma help poor people learn how to get
That money, that cash
Get money, get a stash
Get that money, that cash
Get money, get a whole damn stash

Could you imagine paying someone to lend him money? In a normal world...if I lend you money, I want something in return. It costs money to borrow money. Can you imagine a world where I'm so desperate to lend you money that I'm willing to pay you to do it? That's the paranormal world we're living in today. Pretty unbelievable, but now it's just happened in Germany. The government auctioned off 2.9 billion euros in six-month notes. The yields were negative. The investors paid the government to lend them their own money. This in the era of the eurozone debt crisis where people appear more concerned with the return of their money than a return on their money. But in the US, we've gotten used to this right? With the Federal Reserve keeping interest rates near zero...for speculators
that means free money to go speculate...for savers, that's meant losing money to inflation as it sits in the bank. Or if you're loaning the US government money, the interest rates have been so low, again, you're losing money to inflation. Add to this, uncertainty over bankruptcies of insolvent banks, the staggering 15 trillion dollar US debt, a government with no credible plan to tackle it, and bills signed into law that allow indefinite military detention of American citizens, and that's why a lot of the investors we talk to tell us, behind the scenes that they are looking to get the heck out of dodge. That's what Gonzalo Lira, founder of Strategic Planning Group, a company that helps protect its clients from events...well, like the kind we are describing...seemingly fat tail events that keep on getting fatter. Black Swans that keep on getting blacker. The paranormal that seems all too normal these days. We ask, should people just start planning their escape from the USA, and if so, where do they go? Again, Gonzalo Lira is here to explain this to us, and to give us his take on where Americans are fleeing during a deleveraging that is taking not just capital, but people with it.
