Balance: The Economics of Great Powers from Ancient Rome to Modern America by Tim Kane, Glenn Hubbard

2.0

300 pages of mediocre history, just so we can get to a balanced budget amendment. Yikes.

What happens when there's a multi-year war and we need to spend more money? A massive recession?

Also, I'm immediately suspicious of anyone who describes CA as a post-apocalyptic hellscape with no economic opportunity. Which the authors do.
