The Two Income Trap

by Elizabeth Warren, The Two Income Trap Books available in PDF, EPUB, Mobi Format. Download The Two Income Trap books, From #1 New York Times bestselling author Senator Elizabeth Warren and consultant Amelia Warren Tyagi, the classic book about America's middle class -- and why economic security remains out of reach for many. In this exposé, Elizabeth Warren and Amelia Warren Tyagi show that modern middle-class families are increasingly trapped by the grinding reality of flat wages and rising costs. Warren and Tyagi reveal how a ferocious bidding war for housing and education has silently engulfed America's suburbs, driving up the cost of keeping families in the middle class, and placing unprecedented pressure on hard-working families. Revolutionary when it was first published in 2003, The Two-Income Trap remains disturbingly relevant today. Now with a new introduction by the authors, The Two Income Trap shows why the usual remedies won't solve the problem and points toward the policy changes that would create better opportunities for both parents and children.

Warum Marx Recht Hat

by Terry Eagleton, Warum Marx Recht Hat Books available in PDF, EPUB, Mobi Format. Download Warum Marx Recht Hat books, Mitten in der schwersten Krise des Kapitalismus bricht der katholische Marxist Terry Eagleton eine Lanze für Karl Marx. Streitbar, originell und mit britischem Humor widerlegt er zentrale Argumente gegen den Marxismus, wie z.B. "Wir leben doch längst in einer klassenlosen Gesellschaft", "Der Marxismus erfordert einen despotischen Staat" oder "Der Marxismus ignoriert die selbstsüchtige Natur des Menschen". Eagleton macht klar: Marx' materialistische Philosophie hat ihren Ursprung im Streben nach Freiheit, Bürgerrechten und Wohlstand. Sie zielt auf eine demokratische Ordnung und nicht auf deren Abschaffung
