Surprised by the widening gap between wage growth and productivity? I was too. This imbalance is more than just a financial statistic; it's a narrative of our times, one that shows how far we've strayed from an equitable distribution of prosperity. If this strikes a chord with

My new book is now on Amazon, "Fixing America." I outline a plan to replace all our current taxes with a simple 0.5% Flow Tax. Not only would your tax rate plummet, but we could balance the budget and pay off the national debt. thefoundationforabettereconomy.org

We can pay off the national debt. We can eliminate income taxes and replace them with a 0.5% Flow Tax. Your taxes would be ridiculously low and we'd have a surplus. I explain how in my new book. GoodbyeNationalDebt.com

Imagine a world with almost no taxes—a balanced budget—and unimaginable social benefits The Financial Freedom Plan challenges a core assumption we’ve all been taught: that high taxes, deficits, and endless debt are unavoidable. For the last ten years I’ve researched this

Think we can reduce taxes and pay off the debt? We can if we eliminate all the taxes we currently pay and replace them with a ½% Flow Tax. In fact, a ½% Flow Tax would eliminate the deficit, pay off the national debt and we could all have basic income, free healthcare, and free

We will never get inflation under control under our current financial operating system. We can bring inflation under control with the Financial Freedom Plan. Today’s current financial operating system effectively taxes the supply chain, unnecessarily driving up the cost of

Ever wondered why the US collects trillions in taxes yet still seems to be running on empty? What if there was a way to flip the script—a system where you pay significantly less while the government actually has more to invest in you? Introducing the Financial Freedom Plan. By

What if you could keep more of your hard-earned money and still have a government that actually delivers? It sounds like a dream, but the Financial Freedom Plan is a roadmap to that exact reality. We’re talking about more disposable income for you, better services for every
