What to do when times are tough? Print your own money, of course. That’s what some cities and towns are doing. http://tinyurl.com/qkb4wr Apparently it’s legal, and local currency helps encourage residents to spend locally. With stores and restaurants closing with a scary frequency lately, many people have devised ways to help their city economy.

With community money (sounds like Monopoly), consumers support local business with every dollar spent. Does your city have a similar approach? Does it seem to work?
