The document outlines a narrative to explain the current economic problems facing the middle class and call citizens to action. It argues that working families are struggling while corporations outsource jobs and Wall Street profits off speculation. A successful economy benefits all through good jobs, education, and retirement security rather than just stock prices and corporate profits. The government should invest in people to build the middle class, but the political system is corrupted by wealthy elites who rewrite rules to their benefit. Citizens must take back democracy to ensure the economy serves all, not just the richest few, and hold officials accountable for protecting the middle class.
Economic Fairness demands a coherent and reasonable Jobs Policy. In Washington today, our leaders argue about what's not important and ignore the fact that America's unemployment situation is the worst we've seen since the Great Depression. It's time to get the dialog on the right track and start talking about what's important. It's time for new ideas. This presentation is brought to you by The Fairness Coalition and is part of a series covering our principles and key policy positions.
Fair Economics begins with Fair Taxation. This presentation breaks the stranglehold of the current Right/Left debate on taxation and offers a new perspective. The presentation is brought to you by the Fairness Coalition.
Right now the Washington establishment has chosen to focus on the Debt Crisis and has forgotten Fairness. They have failed to realize that the Debt Crisis is in fact merely a symptom of our economic crisis and is the result of bad economic policy - unfair policy. This presentation puts the Debt Crisis in its proper perspective. It is brought to you by the Fairness Coalition.
What if we had leaders who presented economic policies that actually solved problems rather than creating them? Fair Economics is the philosophy that the right thing to do is also the smart thing to do. This presentation is brought to you by the Fairness Coalition.

In this section, we will be looking at:
a historical view of the rules of the economy—how the choices made throughout our nation’s history have changed who benefited from the economy and how;
how the neoliberal agenda is driving policy changes that benefit CEOs and the top 1% in our country, creating an economy out of balance;
how we can build power to change the rules to create an economy that works for everyone.
But what do we mean by “the economy?”
You know, a lot of people talk about the economy like it’s a force of nature—something that happens to us, like the weather.
That’s not true. The economy is a result of deliberate policy choices made by powerful people. We can make different choices. That’s what we’re going to look at in more detail.

Union of Humans: The Future of the Millennial Generation in the Age of Automa...Ogilvy
It’s not always fun or easy to understand an automating, fissuring, hyper-globalizing economy. It’s not always comfortable to consider that decades-old safe and sage advice (“Go to college!”) might become totally obsolete—if we don’t move quickly to curtail the privatization of our primary schools, and/or colleges fail to modernize their offerings.
However with great crisis comes great opportunity, and Millennials are well-equipped to handle the mammoth issues before them. They are, after all, the most educated, most connected generation in American history.
So why the emphasis on…unions? Well, we really need them, and Millennials happen to love them. But the automation era will require its own union, of sorts—what we’re calling a “union of humans.”

Document #1 History of the Economic Systems and TheoriesCDustiBuckner14
Document #1: History of the Economic Systems and Theories
Capitalism
Capitalism is an economic system that emphasizes private ownership of the factors of
production, freedom of choice, and individual incentives. These freedoms and
incentives apply to workers, investors, consumers, and business owners. In pure
capitalism, the government does not interfere with the economy—the wages of workers,
the prices of goods, what producers can make, the ways that businesses make or sell
their goods and services, or any other regulations. Capitalism assumes that the best
way to serve society is to let people produce, sell, and buy as they wish.
The goal of capitalism is to create what is called a free market. In economic terms, a
market is not literally just a market like a grocery store. A market or marketplace is
wherever all sorts of goods and services can be sold and bought. In a free market or
free enterprise economy like that under capitalism, the government places no limits on
the freedom of buyers and sellers to make their economic decisions.
Origins of Capitalism
The basic theories about capitalism and free trade come from Adam Smith. Smith was a
Scottish philosopher and economist who lived in the 1700s. In his famous book The
Wealth of Nations, Smith suggested the government take a laissez-faire approach to the
economy. Laissez-faire is a French term meaning “to let alone.” Smith thought the
forces of the marketplace would act as an “invisible hand” guiding economic choices for
the best possible results.
Competition plays a key role in a free-enterprise or free-market economy because
sellers compete for resources to produce goods and services at the most reasonable
price. If they are successful, they make more money. At the same time, consumers
compete over limited products to buy what they want and need. Finally, these same
consumers, now in their role as workers, compete to sell their skills and labor for the
best wages or salaries they can get.
Pure capitalism has five characteristics: private ownership and control of property and
economic resources, free enterprise, competition, freedom of choice, and the possibility
of profits.
Free Enterprise in the United States
A true and total capitalist system does not exist in reality. The United States, however, is
a leading example of a capitalist system in which the government plays a role. Our
society is deeply rooted in the value of individual initiative—that each person knows
what is best for himself or herself. We also respect the rights of all persons to own
private property. Finally, our society recognizes individual freedom, including the
freedom to make economic choices. However, because the U.S. government also
regulates many aspects of the economy, it does not have a purely capitalistic economy.
Mixed Economies
Economists describe the economies in the United States and many other nations as
mixed economies. Mixed economies combine elements of capitalism and socialism.

In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.

1. Telling Our Story:
An Economy that
Works for All of Us
Presented by Richard Kirsch for
USAction Education Fund
2. What is narrative?
People can only marshal anger and action about the crisis
if they feel that at some basic level they understand it.
Before we have a politics, or a broad call for reform, we
must have some broadly shared understanding of what
went wrong and who’s responsible. (New Pecora
Commission, Christopher Hayes, New Deal 2.0)
3. What is narrative?
The narrative determines our attitudes toward the actors
and events of the crisis. It also identifies the structural
problems thought suitable for legislative and regulatory
remedy. (Vincent Reinhart, American Enterprise Institute)
4. Five Pillars of our Narrative
The Economic Problem
What a Successful Economy Looks Like
The Role of Our Government
The Political Problem
The Call to Action
5. Our Story
Connect with our Economic Problem
Working and middle class families are struggling, while
the richest get richer at the expense of the rest of us.
American families are working harder and getting paid less,
falling behind our parents' generation.
Big corporations shipped jobs overseas and Wall Street
speculators took more and more of America’s wealth, getting
rich quickly at the expense of American workers, and
families.
6. Our Story
What a Successful Economy Looks Like
Our middle class is the engine of the economy.
The true measure of economic success is the well-being of
American families, and the productivity of our nation, not
just the stock market and corporate profits.
We all do better when we all do better. America is only as
strong as its middle class.
Our economic success is driven by innovating and investing
in the future so that every American has a good job, can
educate their kids, support their families and retire with
security.
7. Our Story
The Role of Our Government in the Economy
The middle class does not prosper by accident.
We build the middle class by decisions we make together,
as a society.
Decisions to invest in our people, expand opportunity and
provide security.
Decisions that will pave the way for businesses to innovate
and meet the future.
Writing rules that boost businesses that do the right thing.
8. Our Story
Our Political Problem –
Our political system has been captured and corrupted by
self-serving elites.
The issue is not the size of our government, it's who it works
for – the richest few or all of us?
Today, CEO campaign contributors and Wall Street
speculators bribe our leaders to rewrite the rules just for
them and to look the other way when they break the law.
Our democracy will only work again when we all have an
equal voice in making the rules we all live by. We have to
take our democracy back to ensure that our economy works
for all of us, not just the richest few.
9. Our Story
The Call to Action –
We are fighting together for an America that works for all
of us.
It’s up to us to fight together for the American Dream:
opportunity for good jobs, strong communities, shared
prosperity.
We are going to hold our elected representatives responsible
for protecting and expanding the middle class.
Americans have done this before. This is who we are. This is
what America is all about.
10. Five Questions for the 99%
1. Why isn’t the economy working?
For 30 years, the 1% got richer at
the expense of the 99%
11. Five Questions for the 99%
2. What makes the economy work?
The economy works, when it
works for the 99%.
12. Five Questions for the 99%
3. How do we get our economy
moving forward again?
By making our economy work
for the 99%.
13. Five Questions for the 99%
4. What do we – the 99% – have to do
together for our country?
Make our democracy work for
us, the 99%.
14. Five Questions for the 99%
5. What are we asking our elected
officials?
Which side are you on, the 1% or
the 99%.
