He quashes dire warnings of looming rampant inflation and spiraling debt with solid historic evidence to the contrary-- evidence that supports more stimulus, not less. He reveals the evolving role of the U.S. dollar in today's global economy and lays down cogent arguments about why the dollar will fall in value. With a dose of optimism, Baker outlines a thoughtful progressive program for rebuilding the economy and reshaping the financial system, including new financial transaction taxes that will reduce or eliminate economic waste while providing stimulus and incentives where and when they are most needed. 588 0 Print version record. 590 O'Reilly|bO'Reilly Online Learning: Academic/Public Library Edition 648 7 Since 2009|2fast 650 0 Finance|zUnited States. 650 0 Financial crises|zUnited States. 650 7 Economic history|2fast 650 7 Economic policy|2fast 650 7 Finance|2fast 650 7 Financial crises|2fast 651 0 United States|xEconomic conditions|y2009- 651 0 United States|xEconomic policy|y2009- 651 6 États-Unis|xConditions économiques|y2009- 651 7 United States|2fast|1https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/ E39PBJtxgQXMWqmjMjjwXRHgrq 830 0 BK currents book. 856 40 |uhttps://ezproxy.naperville-lib.org/login?url=https:// learning.oreilly.com/library/view/~/9781609944759/?ar |zAvailable on O'Reilly for Public Libraries 994 92|bJFN
