Pinata Economics

Everything you've been told about "trickle-down" is a story — and it's time to rewrite it.Pinata Economicsexposes how modern inequality is deliberately designed: tax law and zoning maps, corporate playbooks and platform monopolies, campaign cash and offshore secrecy form a fortified piñata that lets the few hoard the candy while the rest of us swing at air. But this is not a lament — it's a blueprint.Combining clear historical analysis, cutting-edge policy tools, and a hard-headed political playbook,Pinata Economicsgives you:A concise demolition of the "golden lie" of trickle-down and the economics that prove it wrong.A practical toolkit — progressive taxation, wealth levies, unions, antitrust, public ownership, UBI pilots, campaign finance reform, legal enforcement — explained in plain language and ready for action.A strategy for defending gains: how elites fight back and how movements preempt propaganda, lawsuits, and capture.A modern look at technology, platforms, and how digital design can either cement privilege or enable co-ops, open-source commons, and democratic infrastructure.Global solutions: coordinated taxes, debt reform, and grant-based climate finance that make redistribution possible across borders.A movement playbook with step-by-step organizing, electoral strategy, narrative frames, legal defense, metrics, and institutional safeguards.Accessible, urgent, and relentlessly practical,Pinata Economicsis for organizers, policymakers, students, and anyone who wants to win durable, democratic redistribution — not as a moral abstraction, but as everyday public policy that puts candy in people's hands. If you're ready to stop cheering for broken sticks and start building tools that last, this book shows you how.Read it. Organize. Swing together.Read more
