Are We Investing in the Wrong Solution? 🚨 The Billion-Dollar Protest Paradox:

Shocking: A single protest can cost cities up to $115 million in police overtime alone. But what if I told you there’s a smarter way to create lasting change? 🤔

As a Critical Solutions Expert, I’ve analyzed the staggering costs of social unrest, and the numbers will surprise you:

• 💰 2020 protests exceeded $1 billion in insurance claims

• Impact on Premiums: These losses often lead to increased premiums for businesses and homeowners in affected areas, indirectly passing some of the costs to policyholders.
• 
  Increased Costs: Higher insurance premiums, taxes, and reduced local services can indirectly impact individuals.
• 📉 Communities face 1% GDP reduction for 18 months after major unrest
• Long-Term Economic Impact: Businesses in affected areas may experience reduced foot traffic, lower sales, and reputational damage, further compounding their losses.
• Job Losses: Businesses that close permanently due to unrest leave employees without jobs, further straining local economies.
• 🏪 Major retailers like Target, Walmart, and Whole Foods face millions in damages
• 👮‍♂️ Cities spend $2-115M on law enforcement response alone
• 
  Infrastructure Repairs: Local governments are responsible for repairing public infrastructure damaged during unrest, such as roads, public buildings, and transit systems. These costs are typically covered by taxpayer dollars.

  

Impact on Mind, Body, and Soul

Mental Health Impact

• Protest-Related Trauma: 🧠 41% of people in affected areas experience PTSD
• Community Anxiety: 😰 35% report increased anxiety levels during periods of unrest
• Positive Alternative: 🏥 Communities face long-term psychological impact, with Community investment programs showing 15% improvement in mental well-being

But here’s the million-dollar question that’s keeping me up at night:

Why do we repeatedly invest in repair instead of prevention, when Every $1 invested in community business generates $3.75 in local economic activity in a statement about the “local multiplier effect”.

The same $1 billion spent on protest damage, each time, could fund:

🏢 200 new small businesses

🌱 500 community development programs

👥 1000 youth entrepreneurship initiatives

When you didn’t like your parents’ rules, may have been 14 or 40 for some, you stopped coming home.

Have we considered the power of stop turning to the U.S. and start turning to each other America??

Protest Costs

• Constant or increasing expenses
• No return on investment
• Negative multiplier effects
• Decreased property values

Stand with me to grow instead of the dopamine damage of the instant gratification of adult temper tantrums. 

Why are we taking such a severe route for something that was done to the people with a number 2 pencil?  Shouldn’t we be able to write as well??  All of us know someone that know someone who has a business that if we invested in would eliminate the problems if we just worked together to grow us in number, yet it seems easiest to come together for what makes us ill, instead of what heals us.

Because, kids ask their parents for what they want.  And once we become one with Power vs Force, we can move towards an empowered people now capable of things we once attempted to force.

“Create the ‘unmistakable’ YOU!!!” It’s time to stop asking for change and start investing in creating it.
