ALUMNI NEWS SUBMISSION

FOR THE GREATER GOOD: FULFILLING A LIFELONG PROMISE

Michael R. Laxner (St. George Class of 1969) has published his first book, fulfilling a promise made to a mentor over 50 years ago.

“The Fundamental Problems of Our Times and Their Solutions: How Bad Do You Want It?” synthesizes decades of study in economics, philosophy, psychology, and personal development into a comprehensive framework for understanding—and solving—society’s most pressing challenges.

The book draws on insights from free-market economists, philosophers, spiritual teachers, and personal development pioneers to demonstrate how the Law of Supply and Demand operates not just in markets, but in every aspect of human life—from personal happiness to international peace.

Michael’s journey to publication began when he met Carl Ripoli, a remarkable thinker who profoundly influenced his worldview. Though Carl passed away before realizing his own dream of writing such a book, Michael has honored his memory by completing the work they often discussed.

After graduating from St. George, Michael earned a Political Science degree from Loyola University and an MBA from Keller Graduate School. He spent 50 years in the food industry while pursuing an extraordinary breadth of study—earning 84 licenses and certifications across fields ranging from yoga and mindfulness to cryptocurrency and blockchain technology.

This interdisciplinary approach informs the book’s central argument: human flourishing requires integration across domains—physical health, mental attitude, economic freedom, and spiritual wisdom.

The book is available on Amazon in both print and Kindle formats.

Michael writes: “Carl embodied Kant’s principle: ‘Sapere Aude’—dare to know, or more freely, have the courage to use your own reason. This book is dedicated to his memory and to all who dare to question, think independently, and pursue truth wherever it leads.”

For Christian Brothers alumni who remember the school’s emphasis on critical thinking and intellectual courage, Michael’s work represents a continuation of that tradition—asking fundamental questions and seeking answers grounded in reason, evidence, and principle.

Just go to Amazon and type in my name as Michael R. Laxner and the book and ebook will pop up
