Brown Books Publishing Group Releases Economics Book Ahead of Presidential Election 2024, Alerting Voters Why They Should Give a Damn

DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--With another presidential election year underway, it is paramount to share an economics education of our rising national debt. Why You Should Give a Damn About Economics: The US Debt Crisis and Your Future by entrepreneur Leslie A. Rubin serves as a wake-up call, urging individuals from all walks of life to understand the vast implications of what the Department of the Treasury deemed a 122 trillion-dollar crisis as of September 30, 2022.

Why You Should Give a Damn About Economics skillfully breaks down complex economic theories with engaging real-world examples and humorous cartoons drawn by New Yorker cartoonist Lisa Rothstein. Rubin addresses the kinds of questions that readers should be asking their elected officials and future office candidates, such as: How do we avoid overburdening businesses with compliance regulations so that they can run efficiently? What ways can our society lessen the debt burden? And what can we, as individuals, do about it? Whether a student, a professional, or someone simply looking for a basic understanding of economics in our country, Rubin’s book promises to be an enlightening and essential resource for voters.

“Why You Should Give a Damn About Economics provides easy-to-understand examples of how tax-and-spend policies have led us to economic instability. This book will equip our voting public with the tools needed to start prospering again!” —Dr. Arthur B. Laffer, Former Member of President Ronald Reagan’s Economic Policy Advisory Board, Creator of the Laffer Curve

“Too often, economic problems are explained in complicated technical language. The basics, though, are pretty simple. This book addresses one of the most important economic problems we face — in simple, straightforward language.” —Jim Miller, Former Director of the US Office of Management and Budget

“Businesses are drowning in mounds of paperwork, and America is being pulled down the whirlpool of debt. Our citizens and our elected officials have a responsibility to keep America strong — and that means learning how to avoid the looming fiscal cliff. Les’s book guides us to how we can get back to prosperous times where faster growth and a balanced budget are possible.” —Connie Mack III, Former US Senator, Chairman of the Joint Economic Committee, and Chairman of the President’s Advisory Panel for Federal Tax Reform
