Voter's Guide to the US Economy-2012

A Voter's Guide to the US Economy-2012 looks at the economics behind some of the political discourse leading to the 2012 presidential election. It identifies and defines almost two dozen economic concepts that are part of the political debate, and presents the data associated with these concepts from the most authoritative sources available. The book is an almanac of politically relevant economic information, as well as a primer on important economic concepts. The concepts are presented in four parts, including some basics, the economy, federal spending, and international topics.
