The Maverick Files, you paint a pretty accurate picture of the current U.S. We need to change gears in order to maintain our prosperity and place in the world.
I agree, we are still in "band-aid" actions, although all these small reinforcements of social structure can prelude a more comprehensive changes. Because of all our prejudices (together with good old fashioned spite) we are not recognizing and engaging enough human talent either within the country or elsewhere. This is the engine that will make America great again.
To which immigration is key. I have written a number of op-eds and articles on this. "Immigration and Climate Solutions Are Related" is a short piece on MEDIUM.
Many thanks
