It is not between the Left and the Right, but between the past and the future.
America is on the edge of a breakout. In fact, we are poised for one of the most spectacular leaps in human well-being in history. Pioneers of the futureโinnovators and entrepreneursโare achieving breakthroughs in medicine, transportation, energy, education, and other fields that will make the world a dramatically different and better place.
Unless the โprison guardsโ of the past stop them. Every American must choose a side. Will you be a champion of the future or a prisoner of the past?
Every potential breakthrough has to get past a host of individuals and institutions whose power and comfort depend on the status quo. These prison guards of the past will strangle every innovation that threatens to change the way things have always been doneโif we let them.
In Breakout youโll learn:
Why environmental extremists cling to the myth of โpeak oil,โ and how the fracking revolution is about to make America the worldโs leading oil producer
How personalized healthcareโradically individualized treatments made possible by advances in geneticsโand regenerative medicine could wipe out our most feared diseases, and why theyโre on a collision course with Obamacare
How self-driving cars are on the verge of making traffic jamsโand traffic deathsโa thing of the past, unless regulators wreck them before they leave the lot
Why a one-size-fits-all education will become a historical curiosity, unless the teachersโ unions and professional academicians succeed in preserving the current dysfunctional systems
How NASAโonce the repository of American dreams of the futureโbecame a textbook case of death by bureaucracy Americans donโt have to settle for a shrunken future. We can escape from the prison of the past into a future of undreamed of opportunity and abundance. All we need is the courage to break out.
