And Then What?
The two words that see through almost any promise. By Shov
Length1h 21m
About this audiobook
Why does banning cars make the air dirtier? Why does paying people to kill rats leave a city with more rats? And why does telling a struggling family that helping them "causes inflation" leave out half the truth?
Most of what we're told about the economy is a slogan with the conditions quietly removed. This is the antidote — a short, sharp, story-driven guide for anyone who's been told economics is too complicated to follow. From the traffic of Mexico City to the oil fund of Norway, from colonial rat bounties to the echo chamber in your pocket, it follows one deceptively simple question — and then what? — to reveal why the systems built to help us so often do the opposite, and what actually works instead.
No jargon. No lectures. No easy answers, because there aren't any — only trade-offs, made clear enough that you'll never be sold a slogan again.
