About This Item
Washington, D.C., U.S.A. : Cato Inst, Washington, D.C., 2004.. Fine/Very Good. Octavo, hardcover, fine in near fine red pictorial dj. 247 pages with index. Europeans and many American pundits believe that while the U.S. economy may create more growth, Europeans have it better when it comes to job security and other factors. Olaf Gersemann, a German reporter who came to America, found the reality quite different. He checked facts and found the market freedoms in America create a more flexible, adaptable and prosperous system than the declining welfare states of old Europe.
Synopsis
Americans work three jobs just to make ends meet, and unemployment is low only because so many people are in jail. That’s what most European (and many American) pundits believe. While the U.S. economy may create more growth, Europeans think they are better off when it comes to job security, income equality, and other factors. But does European-style "comfy capitalism" really deliver better results than American “cowboy capitalism”?
