Tell-A-Vision: Plenitude Economy

Some practical ideas for living.



And since there is such anger, confusion and misinformation during the campaign season, a few minutes here unfolds an alternative way of thinking about the 'isms . . . capitalism, socialism, fascism . . that are hurled at people's words, ideas and candidates. There are a whole series of people presenting innovative, sustainable local/regional enterprises to a group of investors in a Slow Money gathering. Actually it is a kind of small c capitalism with social justice, community building potential.


The frustration of terrible filming - bad camera work not showing slides, bad lighting - are a lot like our local city council videos.  Don't let this keep you from checking out a bunch of people each letting this "Tell-A-Vision" being central to their lives. It is regrettable there are no women speaking given that women are responsible for 80% of the world's food production and women are the fastest growing group of new farmers in this country.

Whoops! Update because I spoke to soon. Here is the YouTube Channel showing all of the speakers and there are women in this group.  The restaurant speaker gives those with more of an urban world view a great vision for the future of this industry.
