Andrew Yang
The War on Normal People
The Truth About America's Disappearing Jobs and Why Universal Basic Income Is Our Future
Hachette Book Group USA, 2018
Sobre o que é?
The gulf between elites and everyone else grows wider, and Andrew Yang says it’s time to stem the tide.
Recommendation
Tech entrepreneur Andrew Yang attended elite colleges and held high-ranking positions, but he isn’t especially impressed with himself. As Yang tells it, he’s just really good at taking standardized tests, a trait that led to his Ivy League pedigree. In this engaging book – a cut above the usual political fodder – he describes an increasingly Darwinian US economy that, he says, demands a universal basic income for all Americans. Yang offers here, in more detail than he was able to communicate as a candidate in the 2020 US presidential race, a vision that might win him new supporters.
