He delves into how income and prosperity are created (businesses producing what consumers demand), proposes solutions to the unemployment problem, and provides readers with the knowledge to navigate the jobs discussions of politicians and economists in America. With his approach, Lemieux takes this controversial and complex topic and makes it understandable, using economic analysis and real world examples. 606 $aMicroeconomics 606 $aLabor economics 606 $aFinance, Public 606 $aMacroeconomics 606 $aEconomic development 606 $aMicroeconomics 606 $aLabor Economics 606 $aPublic Economics 606 $aMacroeconomics and Monetary Economics 606 $aDevelopment Studies 615 0$aMicroeconomics. 615 0$aLabor economics. 615 0$aFinance, Public. 615 0$aMacroeconomics. 615 0$aEconomic development. 615 14$aMicroeconomics. 615 24$aLabor Economics. 615 24$aPublic Economics. 615 24$aMacroeconomics and Monetary Economics. 615 24$aDevelopment Studies. 676 $a331.101 700 $aLemieux$b P$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01790852 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910969353503321 996 $aWho Needs Jobs$94327602 997 $aUNINA
