***New York Times Bestseller***

From 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang, a captivating account of how "a skinny Asian kid from upstate" became a successful entrepreneur, only to find a new mission: calling attention to the urgent steps America must take, including Universal Basic Income, to stabilize our economy amid rapid technological change and automation.
The shift toward automation is about to create a tsunami of unemployment. Not in the distant future--now. One recent estimate predicts 45 million American workers will lose their jobs within the next twelve years--jobs that won't be replaced. In a future marked by restlessness and chronic unemployment, what will happen to American society?

In The War on Normal People, Andrew Yang paints a dire portrait of the American economy. Rapidly advancing technologies like artificial intelligence, robotics and automation software are making millions of Americans' livelihoods irrelevant. The consequences of these trends are already being felt across our communities in the form of political unrest, drug use, and other social ills. The future looks dire-but is it unavoidable?

In The War on Normal People, Yang imagines a different future--one in which having a job is distinct from the capacity to prosper and seek fulfillment. At this vision's core is Universal Basic Income, the concept of providing all citizens with a guaranteed income-and one that is rapidly gaining popularity among forward-thinking politicians and economists. Yang proposes that UBI is an essential step toward a new, more durable kind of economy, one he calls "human capitalism."

Pressestimmen

"Andrew Yang is one of those rare visionaries who puts dreams into action. The War on Normal People is both a clear-eyed look at the depths of our social and economic problems and an innovative roadmap toward a better future."―Arianna Huffington,Founder and CEO of Thrive Global

"This book is a must read. Andrew Yang is tackling one of the biggest challenges facing our country the way only an entrepreneur can, but unlike most, he sees the big picture. Making money is good for you-but building a strong society and strong people is good for all of us. The topics Andrew addresses in this book aren't about some dystopian future way down the road. These things are happening today, and every entrepreneur should read this book to understand the challenges of the next decade."―Daymond John, starof ABC's Shark Tank, bestselling author of The Power of Broke, andfounder of FUBU

"In this powerful book, Andrew Yang highlights the urgent need to rewrite America's social contract. In a call to arms that comes from both head and heart, Yang has made an important contribution to the debate about where America is headed and what we need to do about it."―Alec Ross, New York Times bestsellingauthor of The Industries of the Future

"America desperately needs a wake-up call. This book will open your eyes to the ongoing effects of automation. Fortunately, aside from knowing full well the many challenges we face, Andrew Yang has a firm grasp of the solutions, most especially our need for Universal Basic Income. Read this book and hear the urgent call for abundance over scarcity, and humanity over abject madness. The clock is ticking."―Scott Santens,Director, U.S. Basic Income Guarantee Network

"Andrew Yang writes with passion and conviction, offering astute analysis--as well as a hopeful solution--for the looming challenge that may well define the coming decades: How can we ensure broad-based prosperity in a future where labor-displacing technology becomes vastly more powerful?"―Martin Ford, NewYork Times bestselling author of Rise of the Robots

"A sobering portrait of a crumbling polity . . . [and] a provocative work of social criticism."―Kirkus Reviews

"I found [The War on Normal People] fascinating and troubling."―Major Garrett, host of CBS News' "The Takeout"

    5,0 von 5 Sternen Great book from a presidential candidate about the true options of our future
    Bewertet in Deutschland am 7. September 2019
    Verifizierter Kauf
    Politics seems to repeat, every time it is just another flavor. And it doesn't get much better. No visions, just "keep on going". Andrew Yang is different. He is facing the big struggles of our time and has answers:

    "A wave of automation and job loss is no longer a dystopian vision of the future—it’s well under way. The numbers have been telling a story for a while now that we have been ignoring. More and more people of prime working age have been dropping out of the workforce. There’s a growing mass of the permanently displaced. Automation is accelerating to a point where it will soon threaten our social fabric and way of life."

    "It will happen in stages. First, there will be automated trucks with a human driver as a failsafe. The technology will allow truckers to go beyond their current 11 hours per day on the road as the driver will be able to rest and do other things during long stretches. This will increase the productivity of trucks and equipment, and likely reduce the wages of truckers as the pay scale changes. The next stage will have convoys of trucks with the lead truck having a driver and the others following automatically, which lowers wind resistance and fuel costs. There will be docking stations outside urban areas where drivers will enter the trucks for the last 10 miles.

    The simple truth is: "Companies are paid to perform certain tasks, not employ lots of people. Increasingly, employing lots of people will mean that you’re behind the times."

    "The test is not <Will there be new jobs we haven’t predicted yet that appear?< Of course there will be. The real test is <Will there be millions of new jobs for middle-aged people with low skills and levels of education near the places they currently reside?>"

    5,0 von 5 Sternen Das beste Buch eine Politikers das ich je gelesen habe
    Bewertet in Deutschland am 11. Oktober 2018
    Verifizierter Kauf
    Das beste Buch eine Politikers das ich je gelesen habe.

    Es beschreibt keine Vision, es ist besser. Es ist eine profunde Analyse der aktuellen Situation, der anstehenden Herausforderungen für die Gesellschaft, der wahrscheinlichen Konsequenzen und die Lösungen die dieser Politiker vorschlägt empfinde ich als logisch, konsequent und zumindest auf den ersten Blick finanzierbar.

    Ob sie tatsächlich umsetzbar sind oder versanden oder durch Lobbying torpediert werden ist eine andere Frage.

    Andrew Yang ist demokratischer Präsidentschaftskandidat 2020 in den USA. Ich habe keine Ahnung wie seine Chancen gewählt zu werden sind. Und inneramerikanische Politik interessiert mich null. Aber aus meiner Sicht geht es hier nicht nur um inneramerikanische Politik. In dem Buch geht es um die gesellschaftlichen Herausforderungen der nächsten Dekade. Und ich bin zum ersten Mal seit langem fasziniert von einer politischen Idee und will gerne sehen, wie sie sich entwickeln würde.

    Eins der analysierten Grundprobleme ist die massive Substitution von Arbeitsstellen durch Roboter und vor allem Algorithmen. Yang’s Ansatz umfasst unter anderem ein bedingungsloses Grundeinkommen (knapp über der Armutsgrenze) für jeden Amerikaner. Ich stand der Idee des bedingungslosen Grundeinkommens bisher sehr skeptisch gegenüber, zu sehr erinnert es mich an Sozialismus und die vielen gescheiterten Volkswirtschaften in Osteuropa und diversen Entwicklungsländern. Auch jetzt bin ich nicht überzeugt. Aber Yang argumentiert so schlüssig und logisch, dass ich wirklich neugierig bin.

    4,0 von 5 Sternen ...they were some points that really hit me the wrong way
    Bewertet in Deutschland am 9. April 2021
    Yang presented a lot of interesting facts in his book "That War on Normal People" and overall I enjoyed this reading. But still, they were some points that really hit me the wrong way even so I know that Yang didn't mean to be disrespectful.
    One of this moment was the part where Yang explains why less and less men are going to college leads to a decreasing child birth rate (or women raising their children by herself). He listed some points of disadvantages for men and even so they were true - Yang completely ignored that woman have been discriminated regarding their education over centuries (and still suffer because allegedly "math or physics aren't things women are enjoying"). I know what Yang tried to explain but he should have painted a whole picture.
    Another cringy moment was the part where Yang explained that the "poor white" population will suffer the most with the increasing of AI technology. He mentioned that even so people of color and Hispanic people are the majority that will lose their job because of AI, they won't suffer as much since they are more optimistic. On the other hand, the "poor white people" will go for their guns because losing their jobs will hit them harder on an emotional level. I know what Yang tried to explain but I really didn't like his way of making this point. He should have just honestly write that the few white people that will be affected by the change will whine so much louder and harder than the large majority of people that are actual affected (people of color, Hispanic and more) by the change because they are used to be treated unfairly.

    Ich bin über den Podcast bei JoeRogan Andrew Yang, seinen persönlichen Werdegang und seine politischen Ambitionen, 2020 amerikanischer Präsident zu werden, aufmerksam geworden. Sogleich hab ich sein Buch bgeonnen zu lesen und kann es jedem von euch nur wärmstens an Herz legen.

    Bei Andrew geht es um Daten und Wissenschaft, nicht um leeres, rethorisch irreführendes Gequatsche.

    Very interesting read on UBI (universal basic income) and how it could offset the expected job losses we’re expected to see in the coming years due to technology advances and automation.

    5,0 von 5 Sternen Insightful and brilliantly written.
    Bewertet in Großbritannien am 27. August 2018
    Verifizierter Kauf
    Yang has produced a brilliant analysis of the situation that the developed world is facing; that automation is not only going to cause massive job losses, but that it has already started - a process which he has termed the 'Great Displacement'. In summary, hardly anyone is safe - but society has the option to ensure that almost everyone comes out of this much better off. I'm impressed by his proposals for adjusting society to the coming reality - and as such I'm glad to read that he is running for the Democratic nomination for President in 2020. Hopefully, some of his insight and ideas will reach the political leaders of the UK sooner rather than later.

    For anyone interested in the topic at all, this is undoubtedly an essential read. For anyone who isn't interested in the topic - you should be. You will be interested in five years. Best to get a head start.

    I don't agree with him at all on the solutions, but the problems are real and people are tired of the "always talking, never acting" politics and politician. We need something new more than ever before. We need drastic action in favour of the normal people. The book is good

    5,0 von 5 Sternen ... even more disturbing portrait of what America will look like in 10 years
    Bewertet in Kanada am 23. Juni 2018
    Verifizierter Kauf
    This is a disturbing portrait of America as it is in 2018 and an even more disturbing portrait of what America will look like in 10 years.

    Many people blame the current political catastrophe in America on the malignant narcissist in the Whitehouse. They assume that he was put there by ignorant racists living in a post-fact universe. This ignores what Trump supporters actually say about why they voted that way. They have their reasons. The daily scandals surrounding POTUS are distracting us from the fact that the American economy is being hollowed out - an effect felt precisely in the "flyover states" that tipped the balance in favor of Trump.

    The collapse of the American ability to find jobs for everyone is absolutely real and accelerating. Populist dictators ride the rising tide of panic felt by "normal people" as they see their hopes for the future replaced by a daily scramble to survive. Looking back to the 2016 election, we can see that Bernie Sanders had his hair on fire over pretty much the same issues that elected Trump. The media focus on Trump seduces us into thinking that all will be well if we just get rid of this one man. All would have been well if they could have just fired the captain of the Titanic.

    Yang is at his best when he is showing how automation (not bad trade deals) is stripping out jobs from the American economy. He shines at simple statistical analysis and deep understanding of the nature of the actual jobs people do. Those jobs are vanishing. That's the problem. What to do?

    In this book, Yang outlines the true nature of the problems facing America. One may agree with the prognosis but it's a good idea to seek a second opinion on the proposed treatment which, in this case, includes Universal Basic Income ($1,000 per month to all adult citizens) and a single-payer health care system. Yang's crisp defense of these measures is not helped by his rambling proposals to "fix" the educational system and introduce a federal time bank system and trigger a moral revival. He runs the risk of being seen as another loony utopian.

    Yang seems to be innocent of political history and the blood sport of American politics. To cite one example, his equation of Marxism with socialism would be shocking to anyone but an American. "Marxism", he claims, has been tried and failed. That ignores awkward details such as the fact that Marxism has never been tried in an industrial state that is assumed by Marx. In fact, we still need to answer the question Marx raised, Who will own the means of production. To Marx, the answer was obvious: the workers. But what if there are no workers? What if there are no jobs? That is the question Yang is asking but, in brushing aside Marx, he fails to directly address the core issue. Yang is similarly gung-ho on capitalism, failing to come to grips with its current version: "finance capitalism", which he sees in terms of criminal behavior by a bunch of bankers.

    Yang ignores the dynamic of American politics in assuming that all he needs to do is persuade people to do the rational thing. This is the mindset of the Democratic elite as seen by the conservative opposition. To many Americans, Yang will be seen as just another "leftie" or (God forbid) a "socialist". In fact, many of his ideas have already been adopted by the "Liberal" governments in Canada and Europe. Yang will not understand that this is not an argument in favor of these policies in the minds of many. For example "Canadian style medical care" was not a term of praise in the debate over "Obamacare". The word "LIberal" refers to the Government of Canada but, in America it is a curse to be avoided at all costs.

    The ship is sinking. Fast. Do we fire the captain? Do we replace the crew? Do we hand out oars to the passengers? Outlaw Ice? Perhaps Yang has a way to get everyone into the life boats. For now, maybe that's the best we can do.
