You can generate money because someone else has created and spent it before
A nice detour to our house-building topic: Money essentially comes into existence through lending.
I hope therefore I have your permission to spend the little free time at home with my family instead of with politics...
Of course. That is why I did not address you personally and explicitly.
If every tenth citizen would only spend 2 evenings a year attending a public council or committee meeting and expressing their position on site, fundamental changes would occur. Not more is needed at all. In a town with 5000 inhabitants and a school committee, with 10 meetings, that would already be so many people that no hall in such a small town could hold them, and local politics would very quickly implement the direct wishes.
The politicians we can elect at the federal level almost all started locally. We can choose them if we support them locally, demand from them, and treat them respectfully. Too few do this, and accordingly, we deserve whoever governs us.
How our property tax is used and its amount can be influenced by us more strongly than many think. That is my message on this topic.
