America’s Soluble Problems

This work, while recognizing the many successes of the US economy, analyzes its well-known problems with a fresh new approach. Are slow growth, stagnant living standards for many, increasing poverty for those worst off, the hollowing out of much US manufacturing, balance of payments and fiscal deficits, all inevitable?. The author argues that they are not, and that entirely achievable changes in macroeconomic policy could transform the prospects for the US economy and for most American citizens.
