Angels & Economists

This book was written to clarify the endless back and forth arguments societies across the world have on what people should do to alleviate poverty. The ultimate goal of this book is to let people interested in the subject of economics know they are not alone in championing economic facts, over socially acceptable and convenient economic narratives. Within the pages of this book, readers will discover this Economist's answers for why "angelic policies" that were directed at helping the poor (minimum wage, welfare, personal subsidies, etc.) have resulted in sustained poverty for the less fortunate. Be warned there is a reason the study of Economics is known as the "Dismal Science."
