Broken Mast: Changing Course for the Capitalist Ship

Evan Baumel provides a fresh perspective on dry economic theory. His insight makes the subject interesting for people who wouldn't go near an economics text.

Broken Mast refers to the main source of movement and momentum of pre-industrial ships. Currently, our capitalist mast is beginning to show signs of weakening. We need to fix it mid-trip or we will remain stranded and lost as an economy.

In Baumel's series of essays, the reader can expect a clear and concise explanation of capitalism, market failure, unemployment, education, health care, debt, monetary policy, income inequality, climate change and more.

The general public and policymakers must understand that these topics are interconnected. Solving one problem will undoubtedly affect another. So pull in the anchor and join in the conversation as we journey into the uncharted waters of America's economic future.
