The Cost of Winning
Global Development Policies and Broken Social Contracts
Michael H. Cosgrove
Discover how economic policies used to contain the Soviet Union during the post-World War II era turned America's vibrant economy into one of broken promises and declining power. In The Cost of Winning, Michael H. Cosgrove examines the five economic building blocks implemented during America's Golden Age and explains how their failure led to entitlement increases and a declining American dream. This intriguing examination presents controversial solutions to America's problems and is a compelling read for policymakers, economists, and scholars interested in applied public policy.

I read The Cost of Winning with great interest because it is always valuable to read a political chronicle from the other side. Despite our political differences, I thought Cosgrove’s arguments had a lot of validity. Disturbing as it may be to think that our society is headed for inevitable decline, The Cost of Winning is a shrewd, persuasive account that American society is in for some troubling times. Well done. – source
