Foroohar also suggests that some European nations (such as Germany) responded better to the recent economic crisis than the U.S., such as by artificially preventing unemployment rates from rising by subsidizing companies to retain them through hard times. As a result, consumer spending did not drop of the way it has in the U.S., resulting in a cycle of decreasing demand and increasing unemployment predicted by traditional macroeconomic principles. Finally, Foroohar points to the more equitable and les complicated tax codes in European nations that omit corporate tax loopholes and reduce the pressures that have resulted in the loss of upward socioeconomic mobility in the U.S.

Some of Foroohar's ideas merely document the history and causal connection between changes in American society and their inevitable macroeconomic results. However, other ideas presented by the author (such as the dire need to improve American education and to revise the American tax code) seem to provide the most logical approaches to digging the American economy out of the hole into which it has fallen in the last several decades.
