The Wealth of America: Every Citizen an Owner (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798184200644)

America is very wealthy but Americans are not.

What if America's greatest economic problem is not lack of wealth - but lack of Ownership?

In The Wealth of America, Jim Aulenti presents a bold new economic architecture for the twenty-first century:
The American Standard, Treasury Asset Dollars, and Capital Homestead Accounts.

America is already one of the most productive, resource-rich, technologically advanced nations in history. Yet millions of citizens remain trapped in debt, financial insecurity, and dependence on wages alone. The old arguments offer the same worn-out choices: higher taxes, more borrowing, inflation, redistribution, austerity, or political conflict.

This book offers another path: a better way.

Drawing on the ideas of Locke, Franklin, Jefferson, Hamilton, Lincoln, and Louis Kelso, Aulenti argues that the next great American advance will not come from dividing existing wealth, but from broadening ownership of the productive capital that creates wealth in the first place. Making Every Citizen an Owner strengthens every person, family, village, community and our whole Nation.

The Wealth of America introduces a practical framework for making every citizen an owner - not through welfare, socialism, or confiscation, but through a lawful national system that capitalizes the American people directly.

At the heart of the book are three commanding ideas:

The American Standard - a new monetary foundation based on America's real productive wealth.

Treasury Asset Dollars - currency issued against certified national assets rather than endless debt.

Capital Homestead Accounts - citizen ownership accounts designed to generate lifelong capital income and dividends.

This is not a complaint about what is broken. It is a blue print with real solutions for widespread, enduring prosperity.

Aulenti writes for citizens, students, financial professionals, policymakers, business leaders, and anyone who senses that America needs something larger than another temporary fix. His central message is simple, urgent, and unforgettable:

Own or Be Owned.

Every Citizen an Owner.

Lifetime Dividends, Cradle to Grave.

For readers searching for a serious, imaginative, and hopeful alternative to debt, dependency, inflation, and political division The Wealth of America offers a new way to think about money, capital, citizenship, and the future of our Nation.
