I
have a friend who is in business. He has a good product with good
distribution. He started from scratch. No money. Just a good idea.
Now 7 years later many people come to him all the time with checkbooks.
Offering all the money he could ever
want to finance his future. He turns them down. Likes to own what he
has. Here's the point of this post. Some smart entrepreneur can figure
out what to do with the damaged and destroyed neighborhoods in Chicago,
Detroit, LA and Cleveland. IF the government will get out of his or
her way, if the race baiting reverends will stay off their back, if
those who depend on keeping the residents of those areas in bondage will
step back, he will find all the money he will ever need. All it takes
is a good idea. One that demonstrates that it works. One that is
clear. One that is an economic miracle. There is lots of money just
waiting to find a place to invest in economic engines that make profit
and build communities. Who has an idea? It won't happen because of
government grants. At one time the economic engine of the community
operated well because there was loyalty. It can again. All you need
to do now is demonstrate that you have a concept that cash flows.. and
YOU are in like Flynn. (only people my age or older know what that
means) The HISTORY of Detroit is evidence that it once worked and can
again... IF
