| In our desire to localize our economy, we find a need to localize our medical needs as well. With the current healthcare system falling apart, most people are not insured and drug companies are making outrageous profits off of the ill. Our goal is to create solutions to these problems and the current healthcare crisis . Building the future of healthcare in our communities.
*Reforming our Hospitals to meet the needs of patients as well as provide preventive care for healthcare consumers. *Offer a directory of naturopathic pracitioners, thus eliminating some of the need for pharmaceuticals. *Create local organic farms to encourage a nutricious diet for all of our community members, icreasing longevity and good health. *Provide support for those who may be suffering from mental illness or depression. These are just a few ideas that a localized economy would need, please feel free to contact us with your own ideas, or if you're a healthcare practitioner offering services.
