nWith a foreword by Angela Garbes n nFrom the president of the Economic Security Project, a book that shows how a just future is around the corner, if we are ready to seize itn n nThe Guarantee asks us to imagine an America where housing, health care, a college education, dignified work, family care, an inheritance, and an income floor are not only attainable by all but guaranteed, by our government, for everyone.n nBut isnt this pie-in-the-sky thinking? Not by a long shot, as this provocative new book reveals. As it stands, our current economic system is chock full of government-backed guarantees, from bailouts to bankruptcy protection, to keep the private sector in business. So why cant the same be true for the rest of us?n nAuthor Natalie Foster, co-founder (with Dorian Warren and Facebooks Chris Hughes) of the Economic Security Project, has had a front-row seat to the dramatic leaps forward in government guarantees over the past decade, from student debt relief to the child tax credit expansion. Her brilliantly sketched vision for a new American Guarantee is rooted in real life experiences, collaborations with some of todays most important activists and visionaries, and a concrete sense of the policies that are possible--and ready to implement--in twenty-first-century America.n nThe Guarantee is the rare book that will shift the terms of debate, moving us from the expired and defunct assumptions of no-guardrails capitalism to a nation that works for all of its people.n
