Focusing on public sector job creation, the book evaluates its potential to establish a right to employment, drawing from New Deal strategies. It argues that this approach could more effectively alleviate poverty and unemployment while expanding public goods production without raising taxes. The author examines economic side-effects and administrative challenges, concluding they are manageable. The analysis also addresses the political obstacles hindering the implementation of such policy initiatives.
