I'm so sick of complaining, but no solving. I don't care if you're conservative or socialist, democrat or republican, white supremacist or human rights activist, green or purple, I just want solutions that work. #Nolabels #ProblemSolvers #Civility #Pragmatism #RadicalCentrism
Let's begin by solving Climate Change with #ClimateSavingAccounts. #CSA's give preferential capital gains tax treatment to green energy companies, thus spurning investment in renewable sources. Soon, there will be so much investment that the Earth's climate will change back.
Everything can be a Savings Account. We've seen #CSA's and of course #HealthSavingsAccounts (via @RealisticDemoc1). We could create #HIPAASA, which would incentivize HIPAA compliance through preferential tax treatment for investing in compliant companies. Same for Infrastructure.
Fund trillions in infrastructure by creating #InfrastructureSavingsAccounts. #ISA's incentivize investment in infrastructure companies to drive innovation, lower construction costs and pay for the necessary upgrades to the nation's roads, bridges and power grid.
I don't care who has come up with these amazing nudges. It wouldn't matter to me if these were the ideas of Ted Cruz, or even Donald Trump lol. If a radical socialist wants to suggest a savings account for their conception of justice, DM me. #CountryOverParty

Some personal news: I’m resigning from @basecamp effective immediately.
For journalists asking why, I have two reasons. First, the recent changes at the company with which I strongly disagree. Second, I never worked there.
Tbh, I know even know what @basecamp is, which means I don’t belong there.
