In the past thirty days this site has had about 500 visits from countries that don’t currently have Democracy or Capitalism. Perhaps particularly of interest to readers from those countries, this post is presenting an example of the power these things can bring to people.
My friend Matt and his wife Teresa are hard-working, dedicated, talented people, raising a family. With their third child, they realized that there was no way to buy baby food like the kind Teresa makes fresh at home. They were inspired to see if they could make a business that prepares this kind of food.
Matt worked for two years, researching, reading about, and thinking about how to make this inspiration a reality. Should he hire an existing food manufacturer, or have his own kitchen? What was the best way to make food like this? What would his costs be? There were a number of times when it looked like it couldn’t be done.
But this month, Matt moved into his kitchen. He’s leased a space, and the equipment is just starting to arrive. Here’s a picture of him.
On the left of the photo is Troy, the Chef. Troy is a former Marine who at one point was cooking for 3,000 men, and distinguished himself so as to then become personal Chef to generals and ambassadors. He has a degree from the Culinary Institute of Pasadena. He signed on to this company because he believes that what they are doing is exciting and will be successful.
On the right is Ann, a sales rep who met with Matt about a new kind of packaging that keeps foods cold during shipment. That’s Matt in the middle. He’s standing beside a cupping machine that recently arrived and will put the food into cups with the proper sealing.
It’s fun, it’s exciting, and it’s one of the things that makes America great. Matt has a chance to do this as a result of Democracy-powered freedom, and Capitalism.
So if you’re from a country that doesn’t have these things yet, the message is: the dream is real. Your country would thrive too from having Democracy, freedom and Capitalism. And we want you to have it.
The name of Matt’s business is Homemade Baby. The web site is here.
