Locally-Financed

We need to keep as much of Dane County's wealth in Dane County. We must develop and support businesses that develop the wealth of the county, rather than extract the wealth from our county.

We need to set up a local-investment exchange soon. It will function like a dating site wherein small, local businesses can find small, local investors. Here's a link to one happening in Baltimore. Imagine that, instead of financing the oligarchs, we finance our local  businesses and citizens.

and here's a teaser line.
“The Exchange has helped 44 Baltimore businesses successfully raise $3.3 million from nearly 6,000 investors. And these numbers will significantly grow in the years ahead. Thanks to the Exchange, the future of Baltimore’s economy lies, not just with bankers, hedge fund operators, or VCs, but in the wisdom of its 600,000 residents.”
