American Civility

We are at a unique moment in American history when,

1. Government is spending taxpayer money to bailout private companies, with no end in sight;
2. Capital formation in the economy is weak;
3. A new administration soliciting bipartisan ideas will assume office;
4. A conservative economic idea is endorsed by liberal economists, Robert Reich and Lester Thurow, opening the dialogue for bipartisan support;
5. Mr. Reich is an advisor to President-elect Obama.

The Friedman-Reich proposal will address (1) and (2) and can truly be accepted by liberals and conservatives.
