INTRODUCTION. THE IMPOSSIBLE DREAM?
War and poverty are caused, not by "selfish others," but by our own reactions to them. If we wish to change the world, we must first change ourselves.

 


PART I
GIVE US THIS DAY OUR DAILY BREAD:
BACK TO BASICS


Chapter 1. The Golden Rule
We are well aware that if we commit certain actions against our neighbors, fighting and impoverishment will result. Somehow we think these same actions create peace and plenty if applied to our community, state, nation, and world.

Chapter 2. Wealth Is Unlimited!
Wealth is created when we use existing resources in new ways. Since creativity is virtually limitless, wealth is too.

 


PART II
FORGIVE US OUR TRESPASSES:
HOW WE CREATE POVERTY
IN A WORLD OF PLENTY!


Chapter 3. Destroying Jobs
When we use aggression to increase the wealth of disadvantaged workers, we succeed only in making them poorer.

Chapter 4. Eliminating Small Businesses
"Only in America" could penniless immigrants become affluent by starting their own businesses. Today, our aggression keeps the disadvantaged from following in their footsteps.

Chapter 5. Harming Our Health
Licensing of health care services gives us the illusion that we are protected against selfish others who would defraud us. Instead, our aggression boomerangs back to us, costing us our wealth, our health, and our very lives.

Chapter 6. Protecting Ourselves to Death
By using aggression to avoid medications that might harm us, we lose access to life saving drugs.

Chapter 7. Creating Monopolies that Control Us
Most monopolies are not created by selfish others, but by our own aggression.

Chapter 8. Destroying the Environment
We are more likely to protect the environment when we own a piece of it and profit by nurturing it.

Chapter 9. Banking on Aggression
We established the "money monopoly" in the hopes of creating economic stability. By using aggression as our means, we created boom-and-bust cycles instead.

Chapter 10. Learning Lessons Our Schools Can't Teach
How can our children learn to abhor aggression when we teach them in a system built on it?

Chapter 11. Springing the Poverty Trap
When we use aggression to alleviate the poverty caused by aggresssion, we only make matters worse.

Chapter 12. By Their Fruits You Shall Know Them
It's just as well that our aggression creates poverty instead of wealth. Otherwise, we'd be eternally at war with each other!

 


PART III
AS WE FORGIVE THOSE WHO TRESPASS AGAINST US: HOW WE CREATE STRIFE IN A WORLD OF HARMONY!


Chapter 13. The Other Piece of the Puzzle
Justice does not consist of punishing the aggressor, but of making the victim whole.

Chapter 14. The Pollution Solution
Restoring what we have harmed is the best deterrent of all!

Chapter 15. Dealing in Death
Using aggression to stop drug abuse kills more people than the drugs themselves!

Chapter 16. Policing Aggression
We can protect ourselves from aggression only by refusing to be aggressors ourselves.

Chapter 17. Putting It All Together
The practice of non-aggression domestically creates a peaceful and prosperous nation.

 


PART IV
LEAD US NOT INTO TEMPTATION:
FOREIGN POLICY


Chapter 18. Beacon to the World
The most effective way to help poorer nations is to practice non-aggression.

Chapter 19. The Communist Threat Is All in Our Minds
Using aggression domestically creates a foreign enemy here at home.

Chapter 20. National Defense
The best defense against foreign aggression is the practice of non-aggression domestically.



PART V
BUT DELIVER US FROM EVIL:
OUR CHOICES MAKE OUR WORLD


Chapter 21. A New Age or a New World Order?
Once we understand how global peace and prosperity are created, we cannot be easily fooled.

Chapter 22. How to Get There From Here
If each of us works on the piece of the puzzle that appeals to us most, the final picture will reflect the composite of our dreams.

Current Commentaries

 

.

China Trade
It is overwhelmingly in the US national interest to engage China in the global marketplace and encourage it to liberalize and reform its economy.

The Cuban Embargo
In 40 years, the Cuban embargo has forced no real change in Cuba, and its end would finally deny Castro his best, last alibi for the failures of socialist planning.

The Benefits of Globalization
The evidence is compelling that trade and investment liberalization increases competition and productivity and raises living standards in nations that open themselves to the global economy.

Immigration
America's relative openness to immigration strengthens our economy by providing a growing and flexible workforce for U.S. industry, especially the dynamic high-tech sector. It also provides a haven for those fleeing poltical, religous or ethnic presecution.

Steel Protection
The steel industry is a poster-child for the abuse of U.S. trade laws, and its latest "crisis" is further proof that the interests of steel producers are furthered at the expense of consumers and steel-using industries.

Technology and Trade
Given that nations have devoted considerable time and energy to lowering barriers to international trade in other sectors, it only makes sense that they work to lock in the current beneficial state of affairs online.

Trade Deficit and Imports
Fears about the deficit spring from the mistaken belief that imports harm workers and industry. The current US trade deficit is not the cause of bad things in our economy but rather a result of rising investment and comsumer incomes.

Trade Politics
The traditional reciprocity model of trade negotiations is outdated and should be abandoned for a new model of "coordinated unilateralism." Also: Is your Congressman a free trader?

U.S. Antidumping Law
The U.S. antidumping law is one of the "dirty little secrets" of U.S. trade policy, unfairly punishing foreign firms for unexeptional business practices routinely engaged in by American companies.

U.S.-Canada Lumber Trade
Trade in softwood lumber is the United States' largest trade dispute with its largest trading partner. The current softwood lumber agreement (SLA) should be allowed to expire in 2001.

Unilateral Sanctions
In today's fluid global marketplace, the failure of unilateral sanctions has become apparent: sanctions alter trade patterns at the expense of U.S. producers without altering the behavior of the target nation.

The World Trade Organization
The WTO encourages our own government and governments abroad to reduce restrictions on trade and investment flows, without compromising U.S. sovereignty.
