What If the Economic Model Is Wrong?

Yes extremist-capitalist neo-CON tinkle down economic theories are thoroughly discredited and hopefully will soon be as dead as their biggest cheerleader the Gipper himself.

Were it not that the following were so ingrained in the American psyche it may be possible to move forward to a place where Tim O'Reilly's three rules are embraced.

1) the Horatio Alger lie.

2) the mistaken idea that capitalism and democracy are one and the same.

3) American exceptionalism.

Paradigm shifts of the kind you rightly advocate rarely come without tremendous suffering.

How might you envision such a shift transpire?

Thank you very much!
