Have the ability to make towns or communities from scratch that are dedicated to building infrastruture, collecting resources, and raising agricultural resources from scratch to establish their own prices, markets, and value. It’s a chance to reset all local market values, jobs, and ignore inflation. Anyone who interjects and changes this reset-system should be immediately excluded from participating in business in these towns and communities.
It should also be forbidden for corporations to enter these markets. This idea could grow internal markets and build value outside of mainstream inflation. Ultimately when cities are over burdened by inflation, reset towns and reset communities should be the next strategy to rebuild societal functions and prices from scratch.

1 No, it is not a 15 minite city. It’s called reset because it resets market values to make things more livable. It is to get away from any Gl0balist plans.
2 I also know the idea is vague because it can be interpreted as an origional idea. Some creativity and imagination may be necissary to see the clear picture since for the most part the idea hasn’t been done before. This is an idea born out of the circumstance of economic hardships. Imagine having prices soar twice as high as they are now for cost of living, groceries, and rent or houses, and you know there is a town or community that keeps prices low with the same prepandemic costs and values. Perhaps the town or community does this by having their own system or rules, their own currency, or code of ethics structure if you want to come up with ideas on how this may be achievable. Nevertheless, wouldn’t you want to live there? A place that maintains the level of freedoms you want and quality of standard you want pre-pandemic? This is the idea I want to call to mind, I hope you can get the picture as I try to paint a better image of the idea.
We had Company Towns until 1964 and I believe that would work again. Especially if we Homestead Federal owned Lands in plots from 40 to 120 acres with no corporate purchases and no individual owning more than 120 acres ever. We should have training programs for those who wish to build homes, barns and fencing. Also for Animal Care, gardening as well as farming.
Weren’t those infamous for trapping people in a cycle of de facto slavery, what by paying employees in company money that could only be spent in a company store?
How many people would accept that currency if it can only be used within the borders of the town?
I stated the exclusion of corporations so that smaller businesses could build their own industries and markets. An example can be excluding walmart so that smaller mom and pop shops can open and expand their own stores with town made products. I hope this clarifies this part.
I’m not aware of anything that legally prevents towns from doing this already. I would have to look up specific examples, but I can recall circumstances where certain places (ironically, these were actually larger cities) explicitly banned companies such as Wal-Mart and Chic-Fil-A from opening locations within their borders.
Notably, this was more for political “we don’t like these people” reasons rather than for “we want to keep big companies out so small companies don’t have competition” reasons.
Where I live, there was not long ago an item on a city ballot that if passed, would have banned new slaughterhouses from being built within city limits.
So to my knowledge, there does not currently exist anything that prevents a town from prohibiting a larger company moving in if they really want to.
The question of ‘why’ remains, though.
If it’s just a small fun thing to help support local businesses, that’s all well and good, but the one example of such that I’m familiar with it’s more like a town-wide gift certificate.
In the grand scheme of things, however, in any circumstance outside “I’m buying this ‘town money’ to support to local economy” (the town money basically being supported by another kind of money such as US dollars), then why would I accept ‘local town currency’ that I know can not be spent outside the town?
Did you read the post Susan? I’m trying to get away from the Globalist agendas and how they are raising the cost of everything to get people to live in the pods and eat the bugs. I guess it’s easy to correlate the word ‘reset’ with the globalist idea of ‘the great reset’. Please have more awareness and re-read the post more carefully. If you could call this idea something different, I am open to feedback. I think reset sounds like a suitable word because you are resetting prices and economic conditions to have a town or community that can be more affordable and suitable for better living standards as it once did before the prices soared for everything.
What bothers me is the amount of bureaucracy that would be needed to, for example, create your own money. The human flaws in the exclusion process could be a problem. During covid in Santa Fe New Mexico, the exclusion process was rampant. So where are the excluded to go? The rules sound very authoritarian. Authoritarian rules are what made covid such a disaster, in my and many others’ opinions.
Company towns were controlled so that coal miners or whatever group of workers had to buy from the company store at very high prices. If you couldn’t pay, you, as the old song put it, “owe your soul to the company store”. I don’t know where you live, but I would not put any trust in such a town here. Corruption seems to be a human vice/predilection.
Many people have different interpretations for the idea. There are those who believe the only way to do this is through force. Known as authoritarianism. Some seem to think its done through a company. Your statment seems to state that it’s done beurocratically. My idea is done with individuals of common interest comming together. Those who follow the same interests will find a similar vision to make it happen. This is authentic interests bringing people together for a similar cause.
I can see from comments this site requires detailed complete plans (even in comments) to allow thinkers to bypass the “WHAT IFS” and suggest fine point, well explained additions or deletions so those in power positions would have a desire to visit and consider implementation.
I suggest the site be expanded to accommodate complete plan submission
What do you mean by complete plan submission? Anyone can propose a policy and worry about the method of implamentation and the details later. Also, some people do not have the time to read full policies nor have time to make a detailed post. If they have a suggestion for a policy, they should just make it. Surely you understand this already.
