"Suppose someone told you that for just two cents on the national dollar we could have a country where everyone had health insurance, full-time workers earned a living wage, poor children had great teachers in fixed-up schools, and politicians no longer had to grovel to wealthy donors. And suppose that when we were done, government would still be smaller than it was when Ronald Reagan was president. If you're like most people, you'd probably think that for two cents on the dollar this sounds like an intriguing deal. But two percent of America's GDP is more than $200 billion a year - way beyond what politicians in Washington think is possible." "Between our proper intuition that 2 percent is a small amount, and the Washington consensus that a 2 percent shift in priorities is beyond imagining, lies the opportunity to transform American politics. In this book, Matthew Miller challenges our country (and those who would lead it) to rethink our public responsibilities before the baby boomers' retirement siphons all the money out of the system."--BOOK JACKET
