The Seventeen Solutions: Bold Ideas for Our American Future

More than ever, America needs fresh ideas - and bold solutions. Now, Ralph Nader - perhaps our last great civic idealist - offers seventeen ideas to rescue our country from corruption, complacency, and corporate domination.

America is in crisis. After enduring two decade-long wars and a devastating financial meltdown, We the People have been abandoned by the leaders we elected to serve our interests. Now, in response to our desperate times, pioneering reformer Ralph Nader offers a new program of seventeen ambitious but common-sense solutions to our chronic economic and social problems. Among them:

• Reforming the tax system
• Making our communities more self-reliant
• Reclaiming science and technology for the people
• Protecting the family
• Getting corporations off welfare
• Creating national charters for corporations
• Reducing our bloated military budget
• Organizing congressional watchdog groups
• Enlisting the enlightened super-rich

Nader offers a stark assessment of our shared straits, but his solutions constitute an eye-opening plan to save America - before it's too late.
