Last fall, I was asked to join an initiative that wants to answer a simple question that demands some very complex answers: How can we reinvigorate the American Dream in the 21st century? To answer that question, the University of Virginia’s Miller Center launched the Milstein Symposium. The multi-year effort develops nonpartisan, innovative and action-oriented ideas that tackle some of the most pressing economic issues our nation faces today. Each year, three commissions focus on topics such as entrepreneurship, education and infrastructure.
