The polls vary but the trend is disappointingly clear: Capitalism is falling out favor with certain segments of the population, particularly young adults who are equally positive about socialism as they are about capitalism. Despite a record-breaking decade of economic expansion, better take-home pay, and a job for nearly anyone who wants one, our economic and political systems have failed to solve key problems. When it comes to promoting clean energy and taking steps to reduce greenhouse gases driving climate change, Republicans and Democrats agree steps are needed, but too often actionable policy solutions have been out of reach.

Advocates of change are working together to develop actionable policy ideas focused around reducing market barriers, reducing pollution, and increasing economic growth and justice through free enterprise. Our goal is to speed the vetting and uptake of policies that achieve better environmental and public health results through capitalism.
