Why Fair Pay Is Good for Business and Great for America
Book • 2024
In this book, John Driscoll and Morris Pearl contend that short-term corporate greed and government policies have led to significant income inequalities in the U.S.

They argue that nearly 40% of Americans make less than the cost of living, while economic gains have largely gone to the top 1% and Wall Street.

The authors demonstrate how fair pay can break cycles of poverty, boost consumer demand, and strengthen the economy.

The book presents a data-informed case and offers a roadmap for a reconfigured economy where fair pay benefits all stakeholders.
