What Went Wrong, The Big Picture

[KeithE]

Right now you can get a summary of one of the most insightful books (political economics) in print today (imo). And it is free.

It is a shortened version of George Tyler’s What Went Wrong in a Kindle version.



Available .

Highly recommended (it’s full hardback version -563 pages- has all 5 stars). This “Big Picture” summary is the equivalent of 72 pages in printed form. It tells the story of how the extremely rich have hijacked the America middle class since Reagonomics 1980. It contrasts 8 other countries' ability to deliver wealth to all classes of people over those same 30+ years.

Ed: So Keith what does it mean for the 8 countries to "deliver the wealth" ?

[Haruo]

Second Ed's question, but without the added "the".

CEO salaries have become almost as obscene as those of sports figures.

I'd be willing to head a major corporation for a lot less than most of these guys. But I don't think I would be willing to play major league sports no matter what the compensation.

Not that I'm aware of. I assume if they're serious they'll friend me on FB first...
