A Blueprint for Prosperity Market-based Alternatives to the Obama Blueprint for Change

The U.S. Budget deficit is skyrocketing. The U.S. income tax system is broken beyond all repair. The Social Security Trust Fund will probably be in deficit by 2017, if not sooner. Healthcare costs are out of control. Welfare reform has been effectively reversed with the passage of the 2009 economic stimulus bill. The U.S. economy, the value of the U.S. dollar on world markets, and U.S. prestige in the international community are all drastically reduced and falling. This book proposes a set of action plans to use inexpensive, free-market solutions to fix all of these things by doing the following: Balance the budget and produce consistent future surpluses, not deficits. Abolish, the U.S Income Tax, without replacing it with other new taxes. Avoid the coming meltdown in Social Security, provide all workers with a safety net, and lower payroll taxes. Stimulate the economy without deficit spending. Help individual workers to amass their own personal, income-producing nest egg. Put the consumer back in charge of the cost of healthcare. Make healthcare more affordable, portable, and avoid the expensive socialization of huge swaths of the economy. Create a performance based welfare system that doesn't rely on means testing for continued receipt of benefits.This book presents viable, low-cost solutions to all of these problems in non-technical language and in a logical order to make them easier to understand.AUTHOR'S NOTE:One or more of the reviews below may make reference to the misspelling of President Obama's name. Those reviewers were accidentally sent uncorrected proof copies. The books available via the buy button above have been corrected. I have left the reviews up because they were still generally favorable, and because they are an accurate review of the book the reviewers actually received.
