How Inequality Constricts Our Economy
And What We Can Do About It November 21, 1:00 p.m. ET Do Americans really have to choose between equality and prosperity? Many economists argue that reducing economic inequality would require such heavy-handed interference with market forces that it would stifle economic growth. In Unbound: How Inequality Constricts Our Economy and What We Can Do About It, Heather Boushey, one of Washington’s most influential economic voices, insists nothing could be further from the truth. Presenting cutting-edge economics, she shows how today’s inequality has become a drag on growth and an impediment to free market efficiency. The ASBC hosted webinar will explore a key topic that will be discussed at length during ASBC's "Making Capitalism Work for All" Summit (Dec 10-11) – market and policy strategies to reduce income inequality. Join us on November 21 webinar to learn more about: - Measuring What Matters in our Economy
- Taxing Wealth
- Enforcing Antitrust Laws to Address Monopoly Power
- Increase Bargaining Power for Workers.
Presenter: Heather Boushey, President and CEO of the Washington Center for Equitable Growth and author of UNBOUND | |
