We have it in our power to begin the world again. So said American patriot Tom Paine, who, like the other Founders, saw this country as a unique opportunity to build a society that values the well-being of the majority over the interests of the few. Over the past few decades, we’ve lost sight of Paine’s vision. Our government has adopted a YOYO (you’re-on-your-own) response to even the most pressing problems—diminished job security, increasingly poor health coverage, stagnant incomes, decaying public schools, and more. 'Here’s a tax cut and a private account,' they tell us, 'now go fend for yourself.' It hasn’t worked. The YOYO strategy has proven incapable of addressing the economic challenges that confront us. It’s a failed approach that favors the wealthy few while eroding living standards and increasing insecurity for the rest of us. All Together Now details an alternative WITT (we’re-in-this-together) strategy for solving our most daunting problems, showing how the challenges we face can be solved through a practical and collaborative response that does not increase national spending. Together, we can wield the tools of government to build a more just and equitable society.
