ED QUALLS - DEFICIT & INVESTING WISELY

I keep inviting him back because he always teaches me some new things about economics, business, philosophy, and life as it could be.Ed explains the systems involved with the West's decline from praising hard work and personal success to worshiping mere wealth and idle celebrity, and proposes starting points for moving attitudes and skills back into their previous, productive direction."  You have my permission to edit or extend this as you may feel necessary to meet the purposes of your program.I can't think of individual words beyond "fiducium"; however, these phrases are germane: "Jacksonian democrat", "greed capitalism", "financial contagion", "sovereign debt crisis", "Boxers' revenge". I apologize about this, but the book does cover a lot of ground, some of it rather in-depth in trying to bring the American people up to speed. Since the 1980's the economic environment has entirely shifted away from common understanding. ("Fiducium" is defined on the website.)
