The local circuit
Close to home, and kept moving.
The short local circuit is the key. People buy and help close to home because they care about the place and about each other. That feeling is what starts a local economy.
The same movement starts the value of an MLC, a local complementary currency. It is born when neighbours agree to accept it.
More value comes when that digital MLC keeps circulating for as long as possible. Each extra pass through a local hand is worth more than stopping in one pocket.
