Poverty & unemployment; Homelessness; Family & relationships; Assertiveness, motivation & self-esteem

A great deal has been written about the effects of poverty and more generally financial hardship on the health, cognitive development, social development and, in more extreme cases, the ongoing safety of children. This book focuses on large scale field experiments to show the causal effects of family financial hardship on such outcomes. Ways to relieve financial hardships of families are examined. Solutions only make sense if viewed within currently changing contexts. Four are examined. The consequences of climate change and the coming demise of fossil fuels are each considered. Green New Deal responses can lead to millions of new jobs for hard-pressed US families. Growing income disparity provides many sources of additional money if it can be reversed. Long-term changes associated with automation, robotics and ecommerce are also considered. Possible solutions are described including how they might be financed. Finally, the potential for support of such solutions by Americans is examined.
