Frequently Asked Questions | SinceSlicedBread.com:
Since Sliced Bread is a contest that is creating a national conversation about policies that can improve the day-to-day lives of working men and women and their families. Sponsored by the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) [my union when I was at the UW -ed], the contest encouraged ordinary Americans, policy experts and economists to enter fresh ideas on how to create the kinds of jobs that allow people to raise families, obtain affordable health insurance, pay for college and save for retirement. Since Sliced Bread is a tremendous success; people from all walks of life submitted more than 22,000 ideas. All 22,000+ ideas are still posted on www.sinceslicedbread.com, where there is a lively forum that visitors are using to debate their merits.
This kind of thing can’t hurt. It would be good to see some real grassroots ideas (rather than astroturf agenda items).
