Two good ideas

The first is the website Kickstarter.com, which I found through this movie project. Kickstarter is basically a public grant website where you post your ideas and ask for funding. I guess it works because many projects seem to be fund and even way over their funding goals. I'm going to look into putting up my Shark's With Lasers hockey team for foster kids up there and see if anyone will fund it Or maybe ask for funding to purchase reform foster care advertisements on billboards from random stranger since I cant count on my own family.

The second good idea is a point Tobold raised. He suggested that if companies counted worker salaries as part of profits instead of expenses unemployment would be curbed and the world would be a better place. That seems to be a blatently obvious thing we should be doing already..so how to make it happen ? Maybe give a tax deduction equal to the amount paid in salary ?

Stop beating up your family.
STOP NOW

Quotes

At a certain stage the realization strikes through that one must either live outside of society's bonds or die of absolute boredom. There is no future or freedom in the circumscribed life and the only other life is complete rejection of the rules. There is no longer room for the soldier of fortune or the gentleman adventurer who can live both within and outside of society. Today it is all or nothing. To save my own sanity I chose the nothing.
