Throughout America, structural problems are getting worse. Economic inequality is near Gilded Age heights, the healthcare system is a mess, and the climate crisis continues to grow. Yet most ambitious policy proposals that might fix these calamities are dismissed as wastefully expensive by default. From the kitchen table to Congress, debates are punctuated with a familiar refrain: "How are you going to pay for that?" This question is designed to shut down policy pushes up front, minimizing any interference with the free market. It comes from neoliberalism, an economic ideology that has overtaken both parties. Proponents insist that markets are naturally-occurring and apolitical-and that too much manipulation of the economy will make our society fall apart. Ryan Cooper argues that our society already is falling apart, and the logically preposterous views of neoliberalism are to blame. Most progressives understand this instinctively, but many lack the background knowledge to make effective economic counterarguments. How Are You Going To Pay For That? is filled with engaging discussions and detailed strategies that policymakers and citizens alike can use to assail even the most entrenched lines of neoliberal logic, and start to undo these long-held misconceptions. Equal parts economic theory, history, and political polemic, this is an essential roadmap for winning the key battles to come"-- $c Provided by publisher. 651 0 $a United States $x Economic policy $y 2009- 651 0 $a United States $x Economic conditions $y 2009- 651 0 $a United States $x Social policy $y 1993- 651 0 $a United States $x Social conditions $y 1980-2020. 651 0 $a United States $x Politics and government $y 1989- 941 $a 6 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240409041829.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010024820.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20230221010511.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20221005010345.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20220802020530.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20220128010035.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F0AA1660800711ECA828FA2942ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
