Book excerpt: Buy now to get the main key ideas from Jean-Michel Paul's The Economics of Discontent In the last few decades, income has fallen for the middle and lower classes while the costs of housing, health care, and higher education have soared. This has been caused by unregulated monopolies, globalization, uncontrolled immigration, soft corruption, and shortsighted economic policies. In The Economics of Discontent (2019), economist Jean-Michel Paul points out how Western governments continue to ignore this avalanche of problems even as resentment builds up and populist parties rise to challenge the current elites. With no solid solutions in sight, Paul offers a series of thought-provoking proposals to consider as tensions rise and an economic crisis looms.
