Here's what I talked about at Bizcamp 2010. Here's the handout I used to start a discussion. If you weren't there, the basic points are below.
Basic points:
"The Vision Thing"
Creating & Expanding Markets
Community Development
'Hub'. Strategy vs. 'Fingers Strategy'
Large. Employers~Fuck that.
Idea: A train, a train. Could you, would you, on a train.
Money, Vision.
Inequality & Underdevelopment
Luke, thanks very much for your comments, I'll certainly move the debate along, and make the argument more robust (and better costed) in the days to come. The big thing for me is to get good challengers, you guys did that for me yesterday, so thanks a million!
Also: you had me at monorail 🙂
Wait for the monorail song, about 6 minutes in:
