Descrição do livro

The $30 Trillion Question: What Happened to the American Consumer? examines one of the defining forces of the modern American economy: consumer spending.

For decades, Americans have been encouraged to buy more, borrow more, own more, and aspire to a higher standard of living. But beneath the surface of abundant consumption lies a more complicated story-one shaped by stagnant purchasing power, household debt, rising living costs, easy credit, financialization, changing consumer psychology, and widening economic inequality.

From the rise of the credit card to the transformation of the American home into a financial asset, from buy-now-pay-later services to the modern $100 grocery trip, this book explores how consumption became deeply connected to the financial structure of everyday American life.

Written in clear, accessible language and grounded in economic reasoning, The $30 Trillion Question looks beyond the simple idea that Americans merely "spend too much." It asks a deeper question: what happens when an economy becomes increasingly dependent on consumers who themselves are under increasing financial pressure?

This is a book about money, markets, debt, psychology, inequality, and the changing meaning of the American dream-and about the price that comes with maintaining a consumer economy on such an enormous scale.
