"[Andrew Yang] reveals that Universal Basic Income and the threat of job automation are only the beginning, diagnosing how a series of cascading problems within our antiquated systems keeps us stuck in the past--imperiling our democracy at every level. [He argues that] the machinery of American democracy is failing, and we need . . . ideas to rewire it for twenty-first-century problems. Inspired by his experience running for office, as an entrepreneur, and by ideas drawn from leading thinkers, [he] offers a series of solutions, including data rights, ranked-choice voting, and fact-based governance empowered by modern technology, writing that 'there is no cavalry'--it's up to us"--Provided by publisher.
