Personal The p page as sources of new information
- - one site I found recently and like a lot is
Tree Hugger. I feast
fourteen years of teaching and writing has taken me
many places. I use the links on the mgreat these days from working out at
Dragon Within Mixed Martial Arts.
For help articulating some of my writing I use Matt Cardin of The Teeming Brain.
The core of
Ideas for America 1 is made up of the research
of MassInc. and
their various publications. All of the other
research and information is built on the base that
their hard work provided. For information about
federal spending and policy I like
The Tax
Foundation and
U.S.
Government Spending.
- New Sources New sources to Ideas for
America 1 are too many to mention, but two are the model of
The
Hour Exchange, now a part of three of the twelve
chapters. The good work of Timebanks is large; look at the
Timebank Listing
for a Timebank near you. For
people looking to spice up their life, the
Boston Arts and Business Council
can train and placing people to boards of
arts organizations. The
Massachusetts Taxpayers Foundation
has a good site with solutions to some policy
questions, in particular their idea of "plan design"
in health care.

| Core Values One core value of the site is the
Norman Rockwell painting above which hung in our kitchen
throughout the 1970's. That being said, this alone won't
get us out of our situation in this country? At the local level, the model of The Hour
Exchange seems to embody the Rockwell mantra
best. It's a system that can not only enable many to
survive and thrive, but also be a better neighbor.
Myself, I'm working on putting together a model version
of it in my community. |
