Tag hinzufügen | Zusammenfassung: | After two consecutive elections in which Democratic candidates failed to turn economic advantages into electoral victory, a debate is raging over what the Democrats should do now. Here, Clinton's economic advisor Sperling argues that the best strategy for our nation--and the best strategy for progressives whether they be Democrat, Republican, or Independent--is to pursue policies that are both progressive and pro-growth, that promote progressive values of upward mobility, fair starts, and economic dignity as well as embrace markets and innovation. Democrats too often pretend that the way to promote progressive values is to slow the pace of the global economy, stop outsourcing, and intervene in the market. Republicans hold fast to the bankrupt vision that the best thing for economic growth is the smallest government possible. Sperling lays out a third way, a realistic vision in which government can improve education, reduce poverty, and restore the country to fiscal sanity.--From publisher description. |
