Title: The Confiscation of American Prosperity
First published: October 2, 2007
Description: Argues that the right-wing revolution in the United States has created deepening inequality and will lead to economic catastrophe. Makes the case that over the past three decades the rich have confiscated wealth and income from the poor and middle class to a far greater extent than many realize, and explores in detail important but commonly unmeasured dimensions of inequality. Also takes aim at the economics profession, criticising the analytical blinders that leave economists incapable of seeing the coming crisis. From publisher description.
