I don't see tech being a solution here. As a Canadian, this is one of the areas where Americans and Canadians differ very noticeably. The US seems to have a dogmatic / religious belief that government is bad, and that business / private enterprise is the answer to almost everything. Even among HN Silicon-Valley progressive types who are so similar to me, there's a difference in mind-set. It's like it's in your milk, air, and water growing up.
