Renewing Families and Reviving the American Dream in the New Independent Lifestyle

Mike Walden,

About this book

In "ReLaunch, " renowned economist Dr. Michael L. Walden offers a groundbreaking vision for American families trapped in the relentless cycle of high costs, long commutes, and diminishing time together. Drawing on decades of economic expertise, Walden reveals how the COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated technological and workplace trends that can transform family life for the better.

The book meticulously examines how the emerging "New Independent Lifestyle" — centered around remote work, distance learning, telemedicine, and digital delivery of goods and services — could liberate families from geographic constraints that have driven up housing costs and consumed precious time. Walden demonstrates how these changes could reduce family expenses by up to 22%, decrease environmental impact, and most importantly, restore time for parenting and leisure.

With compelling economic analysis and practical insights, Walden charts a path toward more affordable housing, better educational opportunities, improved healthcare access, and a renewed sense of independence for American families. He argues persuasively that these shifts could help reverse troubling trends in economic inequality and revitalize the American Dream for a new generation.

"ReLaunch" isn't just about economic transformation—it's about reclaiming control over our most precious resources: time, money, and family connections. Walden's optimistic yet realistic assessment provides a roadmap for navigating the post-pandemic economy in ways that strengthen families and communities.

If you enjoyed "The Two-Income Trap, " "The Telework Revolution, " and "The Upside of Down, " you'll love "ReLaunch: Renewing Families and Reviving the American Dream in the New Independent Lifestyle."
