The greatest source of instability in the world today is the automation of work. It also the most ignored – to the peril of our democracy. It does not have to be that way. It’s time to start talking about the opportunity.
The Future of Work – Part 1
Keeping the Peace
Democracies create alliances based on the common human values of individual liberty. We should never underestimate the power of an ideal in the bond of peace.
Free Markets, Faith and the Future
What if Christianity in the 21st century was associated with business leaders working together to invest the capital God has provided them to solve the challenges shaping our children’s future?
Awakening the American Conscience
The American babyboomers are the wealthiest generation in the history of the human race. Our legacy will NOT be in how much we made, saved or gave away. It WILL BE in how wisely we invested in leaving our children a peaceful and prosperous future.
The Cryptocurrency Revolution
Along comes an intelligent response for thoughtful young people. Cryptocurrencies are a means to stop paying taxes to a deeply broken system run by rich old men who want to milk every last dollar out of the Industrial Age and do nothing to help young people build a future in the Information Age.
America’s Anger – Income Inequality
If we look over the past 35 years in America, Capital is crushing Labor by a score of 708 to 15. Adjusted for inflation, business valuations have increased 708 %, while labor wages have increased just 15%.
Remembering Guy Lothrop and his brothers
Grandpa, you did not go home from the Elbe River empty-handed. I now make my home at the edge of the Danube, with my son whom I named after you, sharing the virtues of individual freedom you fought for with what little I have to offer: my mind, my money and my faith. Your life lives on in mine.
Our Quarrel with Russia
For 200 years the Russian Government has been more interested in threatening, misleading, confusing, and destabilizing effective governments, than caring for it’s own good people.
My New Years Thought
A friend asked me “How can you remain so optimistic, when we live in a world led by megalomaniacs, haters, and liars?”
Citizens United and the Forgotten America
I have never heard anyone say this election was about Trump, nationalism or rejection of America’s role in the world.
