America does not suffer from a lack of productivity.
It suffers from a tax structure that penalizes work, rewards complexity, and erodes trust.
Income-based taxation:
The One Percent Solution proposes a different foundation:
This is not a partisan argument.
It is a structural proposal.

Edward Thurston is an American entrepreneur, tech and digitalmarketing strategist, and journalist with training in marketing and communications. He spent over 20 years overseas writing The Global Observer, a blog examining global issues through an expatriate lens. Previously a licensed financial broker, he later focused on transactional technologies as a pioneering ecommerce consultant in the 1990s.
An apolitical libertarian, Thurston champions free and fair markets, personal privacy, limited and constitutional governance, and rational independence. He brings practical knowledge of international markets and is a long-standing advocate for crypto and digital money. In this book, he makes the case that a simple, transparent transaction tax can curb corruption and administrative bloat while responsibly funding the stewardship of America’s economy.
