Description: AlterNet's The Fifteen Biggest Lies About the Economy takes on some of the most deeply held beliefs supporting conservative economic policies in a rigorous and well documented, but also punchy and thoroughly readable style. Among the many myths Joshua Holland will take on are: American can't afford health care reform, home-owners caused the bank crisis, Republicans care about the deficit, the stimulus didn't work, Obama hates businesses, and that lower taxes lead to economic growth.
