Transforming Rochester Podcast 3 - Social Businesses

Sunday, May 27, 2012

Alex and Dave discuss social businesses and co-ops.  What are they and how can the help Transform Rochester?  The concept of a social business was started by Muhammad Yanus.  It involves the realization that capitalism alone just does not work.  We contend that investing our tax dollars on smaller, locally-owned and developed projects is better than continuing to fund larger projects such as College Town.  The example Alex discusses of import replacement is Evergreen in Cleveland.
