This will probably never be seen, but one of the best things I think we can do to lower the cost of living as well as help get people into paying jobs is localize the economy more. Make it more efficient to buy food from the local farmer / farmers market than having it shipped around the world to the nearest walmart. Make it easier to do local and smaller scale manufacturing (think 3d printing). When your economy is local, it's efficient, green (remove the high cost of transportation out of the equation) and it feeds on itself with jobs and money. I'm building something right now that I hope will be a step towards reaching some of those goals.
