Germantown, NY Author Publishes Book on Changes in America
Imagine a Country: An Immodest Proposal for America, a new book by Tom Cunningham, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.
Imagine a country with a high-speed passenger rail system better than any on earth. imagine a country that has found a way to almost eliminate two of the biggest producers of carbon in history: coal/oil/gas fueled electrical generators and gas fueled cars and trucks.
Imagine a country that creates hundreds of thousands of jobs to build this infrastructure project, even more jobs to service the system, and more still to operate the numerous factories in the federal industrial parks, in part with a subsidy program to recruit and retrain the working poor in the major cities. Imagine a country which can finance the cost of the infrastructure project with private capital.
Imagine a country where justice can be found in the courts quickly and efficiently; where the loser pays legal fees; and where prosecutors cannot with impunity use the courts as their personal piggy bank or to advance their political careers.
Imagine a country with an educational system based on Internet virtual learning techniques; where disciplinary cases are isolated from the general population; where students are constructively engaged in school work and physical activity from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. under adult supervision; where children are assured of two meals a day and a full calendar school year mirroring their parent’s employment situation. If you can imagine all of this and more, then you need to read this book to learn how to make it happen. And if you are a Congressman or Congresswoman and will be voting on proposed infrastructure projects, this book is a must read. The author believes that no one has proposed a reform plan of this magnitude and depth and with as many novel ideas and sensible approaches. Moreover, no one has ever proposed such a massive effort with no long term cost to the federal government.
