The politicians of both parties have destroyed the infrastructure and the finances of the greatest superpower the world has ever known and they have put the whole shooting match of this great republic at risk of survival. Steve Laffey is a serial Fixer. He grew up trying to fix a dysfunctional family. In his career in the investment banking world he fixed various divisions of a $500 million revenu
e firm and finally as President and COO, helped fixed its “awkward size” and helped get it sold at a premium price ($787 million) to a regional bank. When his hometown was going bankrupt he stepped in to help fix it. Elected mayor of Cranston RI in 2002 he inherited a city with the lowest bond rating in America, a city so dysfunctional that it was only a month away from missing payroll and defaulting on its debt, a city where crossing guards made $129 an hour! He took to the streets, wrote newspaper editorials, hosted radio shows and ignited the people to get the votes to turn the city around, and in doing so, orchestrated the most rapid and sustainable municipal financial turnaround in the history of America! In his U.S. Senate run he warned of the coming Debt crisis. He took on the Republican Party and remains the only elected republican to be attacked by the national Republican Party (they favored now Democrat Lincoln Chafee). His book Primary Mistake (Penguin Books, 2007) is the political textbook for exposing the core corruption of the political system and his specific solutions have never been more relevant! Laffey is the creator of Fixing America- The Movie, a documentary that dares ask regular folks all over America how to fix this great country. This ground-breaking film shot on a cross-country trip across America, shows how Americans know better than our elected officials, and debates how to actually fix an increasingly broken system of government.. But Laffey still can’t sleep and he can barely watch the news. The media is more than complicit in these troubling times and the news has become a sideshow of petty attacks. The country has never been more divided, and the American public is tuning out. So Laffey took to the airwaves, formed the Laffey Network, and weekdays at 3pm EST, gives regular Americans a REAL voice. Laffey is forcibly changing the narrative. Together, we MUST find solutions, we MUST fix America. Time is running out and the people’s voice is not being heard. Steve Laffey’s Fixing America is a radio revolution. Join us. Spread the word. You are NOT alone!
