This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. The War on Normal People By Andrew Yang: Essential Insights in 10 Minutes Former presidential candidate Andrew Yang sounds the alarm on automation's devastating impact on American jobs and society. While technology eliminates millions of jobs, our political system remains paralyzed, leaving ordinary Americans to suffer the consequences. Yang identifies the troubling signs: record-high suicides, drug overdoses, and declining life expectancy. As retail, call centers, fast food, and trucking jobs vanish to automation, Yang warns that 1/3 of Americans will lose their jobs within 12 years—with catastrophic ripple effects throughout society. This capsule version captures the book's most powerful ideas in just 10 minutes, cutting out the fluff and saving you hours of reading time. If you've read the book before, it's a great way to revisit and reinforce what matters most. Yang proposes a radical solution: Universal Basic Income (UBI)—$1,000 monthly for every American adult, funded through new taxes on the primary beneficiaries of automation: tech companies and corporations. This "Freedom Dividend" would stimulate local economies, recognize unpaid work, and provide a foundation for meaningful living in the age of automation. Beyond UBI, Yang outlines a human-centered capitalism that measures success through metrics that matter: health, childhood success, mental health, and environmental quality—not just GDP and stock prices. This version gives you all the practical takeaways you need to start taking action right away, understanding both the crisis we face and Yang's innovative proposals to build a more human economy where technology serves people, not replaces them.
