LIVELaura Flanders & Friends - Building a Democratic Economy from Cleveland to Preston
In Preston, England, they're experimenting with investing public money in locally-owned businesses and cooperatives, and encouraging local "anchor" institutions to buy from, or train, local vendors. They're calling it the Preston model of community wealth building, and it's inspired by a model in another formerly industrialized city: Cleveland, Ohio, home of the Evergreen Cooperatives.
