Wealth inequality, climate change, and sky-high healthcare prices seem to spell out a doomed society. Yet, beyond the darkness, there is hope. Manufacturing Progress examines politics and economics by focusing on social class, environment, and healthcare. It features insights by cognitive linguist George Lakoff and economists from the London School of Economics, while criticizing Reagan-style tax cuts and political deadlock. Author Nicholas Storozynski clearly illustrates America's flaws by combining strategy, progressive politics, and economics into a cohesive structure of where we are and how we got here. Though a dark humor aficionado, Storozynski pushes for anything but a doom-and-gloom outlook. Progressive politics, he argues, is the shining beacon of hope that is still attainable. He speaks to progressives and conservatives alike-not only for debate-worthy talking points, but to understand the past and manufacture a more equitable future.
