Rebuild the USA: The Trump Presidency and Beyond (Promethean Growth) Kindle Edition

Okay, we agree that we will Make America Great Again but how do we actually implement the intention, with a minimum of mistakes along the way? This book outlines, philosophically and theoretically but also concretely—economic sector by sector—the answer(s) to that question. Drawing on the rich history of the American System of Political Economy and decades of proposals which have been consigned to the shelf by Wall Street, Brian Lantz charts the pathway to what President Trump calls America's Golden Age.He provides a survey of America’s producers and the critical steps—and most importantly the American capital investment—required to accomplish a qualitative leap in physical wealth, standards of living, and rising productivity. Shovel-ready infrastructure projects must now be set into motion, throwing off insane regulations.Financing of a broad, capital intensive, American industrial and manufacturing rebirth will only occur through utilizing national credit, not debt, as with a National Bank or Reconstruction Finance Corporation-modeled institution. A national investment arm could perhaps be financed through a domestically invested portion of the significant income produced by President Donald J. Trump's protective tariffs.Americans have the opportunity to once-again embed advanced American System policies in our nation’s institutions. This fundamental and structural revolution can affirmatively shape American economics, federal & state policies, and American culture for more than a generation to come. Financing this great endeavor will come from a return to the Hamiltonian national banking principles that founded the nation. These include the rational reorganization of our national debt, drawing on the lessons of George Washington and his Treasury Secretary, Alexander Hamilton; Abraham Lincoln’s greenback policy; and the Franklin Roosevelt administration’s bank reorganization, infrastructure projects, and wartime mobilization.
