Evely R: Canada's Economic Reinvention
and Global Leadership

Canada's Economic Reinvention and Global Leadership

The Canadian Breakthrough A Model for Innovation, Growth & Global Dominance

Over the last fifty years, the American economy has been transformed-and not by accident. Since the mid-1970s, a coordinated project by corporate leaders, wealthy elites, lobbyists, and policy intellectuals has quietly rewritten the rules of the U.S. economy. The result: more than $79 trillion has been shifted upward from the bottom 90% to the richest households, wages have stagnated despite decades of rising productivity, and entire communities have been left precarious, indebted, and insecure.

The Heist tells the story of how this happened-and what it has done to the people who were left behind.
Drawing on economic research, historical evidence, and clear, accessible analysis, Mark M. Orton shows how financialization, monopolization, deregulation, tax policy, weakened labor power, and deliberate political capture combined to redirect the gains of growth to a small elite. From the Powell Memo to the rise of private equity, from stock buybacks to the collapse of antitrust enforcement, Orton traces the mechanisms of upward redistribution in vivid, concrete detail.
Far from inevitability, this new economic order was engineered-step by step, policy by policy, deal by deal. 
The Heist explains how:CEOs and financial firms extracted value through buybacks, LBOs, and debt-fueled predation
Corporations rewrote tax policy to shield trillions
The decline of unions and worker bargaining power hollowed out the middle class
Monopolies in tech, finance, retail, energy, and healthcare reshaped markets and prices
Political influence, dark money, and lobbying blocked reform and entrenched inequality
Ordinary Americans absorbed the risks-precarity, debt, insecurity, and declining prospects


Clear-eyed, urgent, and deeply researched, The Heist exposes the mechani

How the Rich & Corporations Stole the American Dream

THE HEIST

Debasing the price of gold to protect the dollar has failed. A new system is now inevitable. The Western media fixation on Bitcoin--price, memetics, and volatility--ignores the strategic resurgence of gold. The narrative framing of the rise of gold ignores the cause: an underlying structural shift. In 2023 and 2024, Chinese gold imports surpassed most Western central banks' entire holdings. China doesn't need to announce a gold standard. It only needs to create conditions where gold becomes more trustworthy than Western fiat. The shift won't require an edict. It will occur by default, when trust fails and metal remains. The new significance of gold isn't driven by inflation fears or chart patterns--it reflects a tectonic restructure, a repricing of trust. Not trust from the public--but from institutions. Central banks keep buying gold. There was no mania. Just a quiet shift from paper gold promises to physical certainty. Then suddenly the Bank of International Settlements gave the transition a big shove via Basel III. Power is flowing East. China and Russia have drawn in massive amounts of gold while dumping Treasuries. The BRICS will unveil a gold backed e-CNY to compete with the dollar. Simultaneously, they are forcing the US debt back home in exchange for real assets, choking the Fed/Treasury on the mountain of paper, and grabbing the financial power. This momentous shift is already underway Western banks, lacking the gold to cover their obligations, are increasingly trying to financialize the problem. A Chinese edition of the original edition of Gold Wars was published by the prestigious Shanghai Jiao Tong University Press.

Population Economics

This book introduces edumetrics, a rigorous, interdisciplinary framework for measuring learning outcomes over time and across space. Based on Lord Kelvin’s maxim that "to measure is to know," edumetrics redefines education as an empirical science that integrates economics, psychology, and social science to quantify cognitive and non-cognitive competencies.

By harmonizing data from over 120 countries spanning half a century, the book transforms fragmented indicators into coherent measures of learning quality and equity. It critiques the limitations of traditional human capital theory and challenges the use of years of schooling as a proxy for skill. Through econometric analysis, historical inquiry, and global datasets, including Learning-Adjusted Years of Schooling, it reveals that educational structures, not just resources, shape productivity, adaptability, and social cohesion.

At its core, the book addresses the paradox of why rising investments in schooling have not yielded proportional gains in learning. With its integration of theory, data, and historical perspective, it serves as both a methodological blueprint and a call to rethink how we define, measure, and value learning in the twenty-first century.

Die Wirtschaft im Krisenmodus? Seit 50 Jahren fragt das jährlich erscheinende MEMORANDUM nach ökonomischen Ur­sachen gesellschaftlicher Politik, zeigt Entwicklungen von Armut und Reichtum auf. Die Maßgabe: Keine Analyse von Wirtschafts- und Konjunkturkrisen ohne den Blick auf ­Struktur- und Verteilungsfragen. Mit einem Rückblick auf ­MEMORANDEN seit 1975 blättert der Jubiläumsband gleichsam fünf Jahrzehnte bundesdeutscher Wirtschaftsgeschichte auf. Doch kein Rückblick ohne Ausblick: Wie vertragen sich die massiven Veränderungen in der Industrie mit einer drängenden sozial-ökologischen Transformation? Wie steht es um die Finanz- und Haushaltspolitik, um die Tarif- und Steuerpolitik, um die Gesundheits- und Rentenpolitik? Inwieweit sind Normalarbeitszeitverhältnisse durchsetzbar? Auf der »verfassungsrechtlich gebotenen Sozialbindung des Privateigentums« bestand das erste ­MEMORANDUM und mahnte die »Bedrohung des materiellen Lebensstandards für die Mehrheit der Bevölkerung« an. Eine »soziale Wirtschaftspolitik« zu »verlangen«, die »den Interessen vor allem der Lohn- und Gehaltsabhängigen Rechnung trägt«: Das scheint 2025 nicht minder notwendig als 1975.

Mehr Demokratie - Weniger Kapitalmacht!

Women are underrepresented in the field of economics. Why is there a gender disparity in this discipline? How does this impact economic policy? What does this mean for society? &nbsp;This contributed volume explores the underrepresentation of women in the field of economics. Offering unique empirical approaches into gender imbalance in a profession, this book documents the leaky pipeline that women face in the field of economics.&nbsp;Contributors draw upon quantitative and qualitative data, exploring unique challenges and opportunities women economists encounter in their personal and professional lives. Chapters highlight issues of discrimination and implicit bias, such as silencing, mansplaining, and the presumption of incompetence. These sections bring to life the experiences of female students and faculty, examining teaching, hiring, colleague interactions, and tenure and promotion processes. The authors propose mechanisms to increase diversity and improve the experiences of all faculty members.&nbsp; Missing Voices in Economics
 explores whether historical sexist structures are slowing progress in economic research and, as a result, human development. Readers will walk away from the book ready to continue this conversation and support gender equity in economics.

Addressing the Gender Gap

Missing Voices in Economics

When systems fail, survival is no longer physical-it's economic.
The Survival Economy Blueprint is a strategic guide for navigating financial instability, resource scarcity, and system breakdowns in a world where traditional structures can no longer be trusted. This book goes beyond theory, delivering practical frameworks to help you maintain income, manage resources, and build stability when everything around you begins to shift.
Inside, you'll learn how to create survival-ready income systems that don't rely on fragile institutions, develop high-value skills that remain useful in any condition, and manage resources with precision and sustainability. You'll also discover how to leverage community economics, build networks of shared strength, and transition from short-term survival into long-term stability and controlled growth.
This is not about fear-it's about preparation.
Whether facing economic downturns, supply disruptions, or uncertain futures, this blueprint equips you with the mindset and structure needed to endure and adapt. It transforms uncertainty into strategy and instability into opportunity.
Because those who prepare economically don't just survive-
they position themselves to thrive when others cannot.

The Survival Economy Blueprint

When systems fail, most people panic. A rare few build power.
Wealth in the Ash Cycle: Building Power When Systems Collapse is a strategic guide for navigating economic instability, currency decline, and systemic disruption with clarity and control. Instead of fearing collapse, this book reveals how to recognize it as a cycle-one that redistributes power, resources, and opportunity to those who understand its patterns.
Inside, you will learn how to identify emerging value when traditional systems weaken, position yourself within shifting resource flows, and build resilient forms of wealth that are not dependent on fragile institutions. This is not about survival alone-it is about transformation.
From understanding the psychology of collapse to mastering real-world strategies like resource control, adaptive income systems, and network-based leverage, this book equips you with the mindset and tools to move with precision while others hesitate.
Collapse is not the end. It is a reset.
And those who see clearly in the ashes will shape what comes next.

Schriftenreihe Bau- und Immobilienmanagement

Das Buch präsentiert eine theorie- und praxisgeleitete Forschungsarbeit, die sich an Architektur- und Designschaffende sowie alle Berufsgruppen im Kontext baulicher Barrierefreiheit richtet. Vorgestellt wird die forschende Entwicklung eines Raum-in-Raum-Systems zur platzsparenden Realisierung barrierefreier Sanitärräume in Bestand und Neubau. Dabei liegt der Fokus auf der Verfahrbarkeit und Überlagerung von Sanitärgegenständen (räumliche Interaktion) sowie der Organisation gängiger Bad-Funktionalitäten und physischer Assistenzen (Funktionsintegration) auf geringer Grundfläche. Unter Bezugnahme auf relevante Autoren wie Frayling, Krippendorff und Bieling verbindet die Arbeit praxisnahe Entwurfsprozesse mit wissenschaftlich-theoretischer Reflexion und entwickelt dabei eigenständige Prozessmodelle. Zentrale Fragestellungen: Kann ein zu entwickelndes Raum-in-Raum-System durch räumliche Interaktion und Funktionsintegration die Barrierefreiheit in Bestandsbauten mit transferierbarem Erkenntnisgewinn für den Neubau herstellen bzw. erhöhen? Welcher insbesondere methodologisch-designwissenschaftliche Beitrag kann dabei abgebildet, welche Rückschlüsse auf das sich wandelnde Berufsbild Designschaffender gezogen werden? Innerhalb eines quantitativ-qualitativen Forschungsdesigns aus Workshops, Beobachtungsstudien, Gruppendiskussionen, Expertinnen-Interviews und Fragebogenerhebungen werden zwei Prototypen entwickelt und evaluiert. Das Buch zeigt, wie die Verbindung von Theorie und Praxis zu tragfähigen, innovativen Lösungen führt, und liefert insbesondere Designschaffenden wertvolle Impulse, Forschungsprozesse wissenschaftlich fundiert und zukunftsorientiert zu gestalten.
