Book Description
===================
The first book to reveal how the Federal Reserve holds the key to
making us more economically equal, written by an author with
unparalleled expertise in the real world of financial policy.

Following the 2008 financial crisis, the Federal Reserve’s monetary
policy placed much greater focus on stabilizing the market than on
helping struggling Americans. As a result, the richest Americans got a
lot richer while the middle class shrank and economic and wealth
inequality skyrocketed. In Engine of Inequality, Karen Petrou offers
pragmatic solutions for creating more inclusive monetary policy and
equality-enhancing financial regulation as quickly and painlessly as
possible. This groundbreaking book: presents practical ways America
can and should tackle economic inequality with fast-acting results;
provides revealing examples of exactly how bad economic inequality in
America has become no matter how hard we all work; demonstrates that
increasing inequality is disastrous for long-term economic growth,
political action, and even personal happiness; discusses who shares
the blame for our economic inequality; and much more.

Engine of Inequality is a must-listen for leaders, policymakers,
regulators, media professionals, and all Americans wanting to ensure
that the nation’s financial policy will be a force for promoting
economic equality.
