To stretch each person’s financial reach by diminishing their expenses and increasing their income, these three ideas are being presented...
1. Planting millions of fruit trees, hiring city gardeners and orchard keepers to care for community orchards whereby citizens are provided access to free organic fruits and vegetables from city run community farms and orchards.
Fruit tree planted in tree wells along major streets, in parking lots, in government buildings and in neighborhood centers, parks and recreational facilities.
Benefits: Provides jobs and food for communities.
Sample Costs:
4 million dollars - 1 million Fruit trees, 1,000 Orchard Managers to care for trees. To organize distribution days… each weekend. Calls for community involvement in watering trees and keeping area clean and respected.
Benefits upwards of 40 million dollars. Through saving millions of dollars in food purchase by citizens.
Provides employment to 1,000 orchard keepers at $20 hour.
Provides foods for homeless and hungry and families who opt into program.
2. Unsold Fresh Foods Distribution Donations
Presently stores such as Whole Foods in Sherman Oaks are providing their unsold, but fresh foods to homeless shelters, church distribution programs, senior centers, food banks and to the general community whose food budget has been compromised. This allows the end of wasted food, feeding those who are hungry and community involvement, and a tax benefit to businesses. This can be spread to all cities in the US through Harvest program, adding stores and foundations to operate on a daily basis.
Sampe Cost $1 million
Sample Benefits: $100 million in foods saved and utilized, saving expenses for those with limitde food budget. Great community involvement benefit.
3. 10% General Lowering Prices Incentives
A $10 percent tax break for business will be in effect to those that lower the average price of their products 10%
Sample Costs $10 million
Benefits: $10 million passed on to consumers.
Consumer can shop at stores whose prices do not go up but go down 10% per year.
The difference will be absorbed by the government through tax breaks to business.
The less taxes going to government will be reflected in this money being spent elsewhere in the economy
