President Obama,
We need to encourage our communities to be self-sufficient by taking control of their neighborhoods. What if we could purchases services for our homes such as a group. example: homeowners insurance,food, repair services, appliances, & etc. Just to think most of my neighbors either use State Farm or Allstate as their homeowners insurance carriers, why can’t we purchase as a neighborhood group, imagine if we purchase all of our goods and services that way. We would enpower our neighborhoods just with basic services.
