Western MA Begins Local Currency Project

God is merciful!

An organization in the southern Berkshire Mountains of Western Massachusetts is promoting an joint effort with community-based banks, local small business and co-operatives. This effort is to promote and sustain the local economy through the use of "local currency", good within that area.

The group is call BerkShares, Inc. Read up about it at the website. If this effort works, both short-term and long-term, then this will be a major step for Massachusetts in achieving a vibrant Distributist economy. And if you contact them, please let them know you heard about it through The Distributist Review. And thank you.

Now if only the MA state and local governments would follow suit. Alas for us they don't, acting too much like their fellow corrupt Socialist bureaucrats in the rest of the US.
