Leading figures such as Milton Friedman, Arthur Laffer, Walter Oi, Alfred Kahn, and Thomas Schelling believed that government should stop trying to manage the economy, and that markets would deliver steady growth and ensure that all Americans shared in the benefits. But, Applelbaum argues, these policies failed to deliver on their promise of broad prosperity, and the singleminded embrace of markets has come at the expense of economic equality, the health of liberal democracy, and future generations. 0aEconomic historyy20th century. 4aHistoria económicaySiglo XX 0aEconomicsxPolitical aspectszUnited States. 4aEconomía xAspectos políticos zEstados Unidos 0aEconomicszUnited StatesxHistoryy20th century. 0aEconomistszUnited States. 4aEconomistas zEstados Unidos 7aHistory.2fast0(OCoLC)fst01411628
