The Breakthrough Institute: Deficit Spend to Remake the U.S. Economy: Print This

The Breakthrough Institute is a small think tank with big ideas. Breakthrough is committed to creating a new progressive politics, one that is large, aspirational, and asset-based. We believe that any effective politics must speak to core needs and values, not issues and interests, and we thus situate ourselves at the intersection of politics, policy, philosophy, and the social sciences.

Deficit Spend to Remake the U.S. Economy

The San Francisco Chronicle ran an op-ed by Teryn Norris today calling for major deficit spending on long-term clean energy investments to remake the U.S. economy. These strategic investments will create new industries, infrastructure, technology, and human capital to drive the U.S. economy for decades to come.
