Highly recommendable, lays out the problems with our economy and monetary/work structure, that we all chafe under, and discusses possible solutions with experts. Does so in plain language, good for non-experts to hear.

Description

Join zillionaire class-traitor Nick Hanauer and some of the world’s leading economic and political thinkers as they explore the latest thinking on how the economy actually works.
