The betrayal of American prosperity : free market delusions, America's decline, and how we must compete in the post-dollar era / Clyde Prestowitz.
From the bestselling author of Rogue Nation and Three Billion New Capitalists comes a bracing warning of a decisive shift in world power away from the United States--and the deeply troubling threat that we are entering a post-dollar era. Prestowitz suggests a number of solutions--abolishing the dividend tax, imposing a value-added tax, incentivizing foreign investment in the U.S., and doubling federal support of innovative technologies.
