I had a rough draft of an idea about if I was rich enough to have absolute fuck you money, I would go into a neighborhood that needed it and buy everyone's house, but the rule is they have to continue living there and spending that house money on their community, local mom and pop shops and the likes....build their streets up, add lights where needed, sidewalks, playgrounds, whatever. Invest in schools, pay teachers. But they must stay there. And because I owned the properties I would put it in some kind of generational safeguarding trust so no corporations could come in and try to bully these neighborhoods into selling for gentrification while maintaining a lawyer on hand for any circumstances to work out the paperwork as needed.
