    Episode 2: The Solution to Poverty with Scott C. Miller

    Excerpt from Scott's upcoming book
    After more than four decades of work in this field, I know that we, as a nation, have everything we need to end poverty. We know what programs work, what systemic barriers must be eliminated, and what service gaps need filling. We know what people need so they can safely leave public assistance programs and secure and retain good jobs. We know how to scale programs that work, and we know how to defund programs that don’t.

    Director of “Growth Busters”, Dave Gardner
    Introduction
    Forget what you thought you already knew about our small planet. Dave Gardner the Director of Growth Busters share how we must learn to live more sustainably or risk serious consequences. This is an interview that I went into thinking I had a grasp of the topic, but I was wrong. Gardner will challenge you with facts and ideas you won’t hear anywhere else.

    Summary
    Dave Gardner is the Director of GrowthBusters: Hooked on Growth, a documentary about overpopulation and growth.
    The Movie shows how from Las Vegas to Atlanta, Mexico City to Mumbai, the White House to the Vatican, GrowthBusters we are all focused on growth. He describes it as Wild Kingdom with a twist: the cameras are turned on humanity as our own survival skills are examined. GrowthBusters: Hooked on Growth looks into the psychology of denial and crowd behavior. It explores our obsession with urban and economic growth, and our reluctance to address overpopulation issues head-on and holds up a mirror, encouraging us to examine the beliefs and behaviors we must leave behind – and the values we need to embrace – so our children can survive and thrive.
