The CRC Review is your source for common sense commentary covering the public policy and salient topics impacting our national economy and overall society. 

Some people feel that government spending is possible without limitations. These individuals are wrong. There are numerous examples throughout the world that excessive government spending negatively impacts an economy in the long run and devalues currency. 

There is a need for government spending in times of crisis or economic instability but spending needs to be limited. The best approach is to utilize on what is needed before the private sector is able to provide for society once again. There is multiplier effect in terms of growth in private sector spending, whereas some economists believe there is a suppressing effect with public spending.

Our spending also should not fully subsidize poverty rather help to elevate people towards income mobility. There will always be some people in need of perpetual assistance, but every able-bodied citizen should be working and contributing to our society. 

In this podcast, I discuss how our government spending can be made more efficient and effective. Additionally, I discuss salient current events. Please click above to experience The Money We Spend.

TAKING THE FIGHT TO POVERTY

The CRC Review is your source for common sense commentary covering the public policy and salient topics impacting our national economy and overall society. 

The common theme you experience here is the idea of empowering the people. Focusing on allowing people to make the choices that are best for the individual situations, needs, and wants. Americans should not be forced to limit our expectations to the choices afforded by government, rather by those available by our effort, opportunity, and ingenuity. 

There is a need to expand opportunity in our society. Broadening the pipelines of success to more communities and groups in our society. The question is whether we do this through redistribution or through expanding the economic principles that made America the leading and most innovative economy in the world. 

America must harness the innovation, ambition, and productivity of the American people, which many people seem hesitant to do. America should help more people of all different backgrounds increase investments, entrepreneurial pursuits instead of securing spots on government programs. Americans must be champions of their own success rather than victims of circumstance. 

In this podcast, I discuss how America can improve our fight against poverty. I also provide a real-life example of income mobility, which is key to elevating people out of poverty through the dignity of work. Please click on the above to experience Taking the Fight to Poverty podcast. 

THE CASE FOR BIPARTISANSHIP

America is in a crisis of our own making. There is a clear need for a national change of perspective. Change from a society that views our political opposition as an existential threat to our democracy. Change from a society that views the problem with our society simply being the existence of the other side. 


Our problems did not originate from one individual, one political party, or one group of people. Our underlying problems with political tribalism, ideological rigidity, hysteria, anger, and jealousy transitioned with past changes of administrations. Our political environment continues to move away from cooperation and compromise. Our society continues to allow political views to divide family and friends. Our media institutions continue to wedge society based on exaggerated differences, ignoring the many areas of agreement.


Our society needs to return to a point where compromise, cooperation, and consideration are acceptable aspects of government and daily life. A point where good faith negotiations craft solutions that benefit the broadest group of Americans.

My name is Christopher Peter and welcome to the CRC Review. The CRC Review is your source for common sense commentary covering salient topics impacting our society and economy.

All Americans can agree that equal protection under the law should apply to all regardless of demographics. All Americans can understand challenges faced by law enforcement when dealing with suspected criminals in their worst moments. By no means should our men and women in law enforcement be willing victims. But there are reasonable reforms that can be male to ensure even the worse of our society receive due process they are entitled to by our Constitution.
