Fair Shot: Rethinking Inequality and How We Earn

St. Martin’s Press

In this fascinating book, Facebook co-founder, Chris Hughes argues that the best way to fight income inequality is with a radically simple idea: a guaranteed income for working people, paid for by the one percent. The way Hughes sees it, a guaranteed income is the most powerful tool we have to combat poverty and stabilize America’s middle class. Money – with no strings attached – gives people freedom, dignity, and the ability to climb the economic ladder.
