Transit Part 9: Inviting Private Donations

Once the general public, passengers, employees, companies, and lobbyists are all on board with the development and implementation of my program, approaching potential sources of donation, including from wealthy private sources looking for good causes to support (in return for advantageous tax right-offs) will help to foster broad by-partisan support.


Letters of intent can be obtained which allow willing donors to declare their intent subject to various conditions.  These conditions, to the extent that they would be reasonable, could then be used to help push for broad by-partisan support.  Letters of intent, worded so as to allow donors to back out comfortably are more likely to be responded to favorably than an approach based on “do we get the money or not”.  Sources of donation are understandably skeptical when it comes to people with “new ideas” wanting them to spend their wealth.  It’s a respect thing again.  That’s all.

Thank you for taking time to read my program.  Obviously, if I didn't believe in my own program, I would not have published it for others to read and ponder on.
