Description
America's problems are solvable. This book explains how we can eliminate homelessness, hunger and poverty while making health insurance affordable for everyone. It shows how we can do this in ways that conservatives, liberals, self-interest groups and the vast majority of Americans can accept. This can be done without constantly raising taxes or demonizing anyone. The book is divided into three parts. The first part explores some of the forces that are causing America's problems and why we have not been able to solve them. The second part explores our problems with healthcare, income, welfare, government spending, education and housing. The third part presents a set of solutions to mitigate these problems. It demonstrates that a set of solutions, which support each other, can be more feasible in mitigating related problems than focusing only on one problem at a time. Although counterintuitive, mitigating multiple related problems at the same time is actually easier and potentially more feasible. Establishing that the concepts and solutions presented are credible enough to warrant intensive investigation, refinement, and eventual implementation is the primary goal of this book. The set of solutions presented is only meant to be a starting point for discussions, refinements, and research. A very large amount of work, compromises with affected groups, public discussions, and political support will be needed before a version of these solutions can be implemented. Discover how we can make America a better place for all Americans.
