- iancmceachern 3y agoCreating economic opportunities for people, people don't want handouts, people want opportunity
- ttymck 3y agoI agree! What sort of opportunities?
- iancmceachern 3y agoEducation that allows a path for meaningful employment nut also doesn't require people to take on crippling debt. Lots of church groups have been buying people's medical debt for pennies on the dollar and releasing people of their medical debt, that would be a great use of funds. Universal Basic Income programs Simple social safety net programs like food banks, non-predatory small loan and grant services to help people get over a rough patch. Public programs that create jobs while using the purchased labor to build infrastructure that benefits us all (think TVA). If you want more examples look at the French government and the many ways they reinvest in their people and economy.
