Who Wins and Who Loses - The Distribution of Regulatory Impacts in the United States

Examining whether and how regulation affects economic inequality
The recent debate over growing inequality in the United States has focused on several causes but has pretty much ignored one potential factor: government regulation. This book is the first serious examination of whether federal regulation, defined broadly, has exacerbated or counteracted economic disparities that pose major long-term political and social consequences.
