Created Unequal: The Crisis in American Pay - Softcover

The boom of the US economy in the late 1990s suggests that Americans are better off than they were a decade ago, but this is not true across the board. The reason, as this text explains, is wage inequality.

The strong U.S. economy in the late 1990s has validated the bold thesis of this book.Created Unequal shows that America's historically high inequality of pay and incomes is not the result of impersonal market forces such as technology or trade, but of bad economic policies over several decades and the poor performance they created. Featuring a new preface on the improvements since 1994, Created Unequal is a rousing book that reminds us we can reclaim our country through economic understanding, commonsense policy, and political action.
