Aus dem Klappentext

Mark Werts tackles education, healthcare, immigration, taxes. gun control, the envi­ronment, and gender (in addition to many other issues), then offers Americanssimple solutions free of partisan bias, based on how these challenges are handled around the world.

Werts has lived, worked, and travelled across Asia, Europe, Africa, and Australia, and has observed how other countries ap­proach the same dilemmas that we face here in the United States. Over time, Werts came to understand what is practical and what works. In our global world, he asks, why would America pursue an idea that was unsuccessful in another country?

He also reflects on the views of ourFounding Fathers, and suggests that we take another look at their considerable wisdom.

With freedom, education, and voting as underlying themes, Werts believes we are at a monumental juncture, and that the future of our individual freedom is at stake. America's Simple Solutionswill em­power people to get involved, and make choices that will fuel both growth and freedom.
