America’s biggest problems — poverty, healthcare costs, homelessness, and inequality — are not unsolvable. They are the result of policy choices that benefit a small few at the expense of everyone else.

The Progressive Capitalist exists to explain, clearly and honestly, how government budgets actually work, why “we can’t afford it” is usually a myth, and what realistic alternatives look like.

I don’t write to appear neutral. I write to be accurate.

America can afford to fix poverty, healthcare, and inequality. The reason we haven’t isn’t economics — it’s political choice.
