The Hamilton Project's Advisory Board has benefited greatly from income inequality, something the group purports to reduce.
Launched in 2006 as an economic policy initiative at the Brookings Institution, The Hamilton Project is guided by an Advisory Council of academics, business leaders, and former public policy makers. The Project provides a platform for a broad range of leading economic thinkers to inject innovative and pragmatic policy options into the national debate.The Hamilton Project "offer(s) a strikingly different vision from the economic policies that contributed to the alarming trends in rising income inequality and a mounting federal deficit."
Private equity underwriters (PEU) are in the top 0.1% and their wealth continues to rise dramatically. PEU assets under management more than doubled since Bob Rubin founded The Hamilton Project at Brookings.
It's sad that all those pragmatic solutions rooted in evidence and experience failed to improve income inequality since the Hamilton Project's founding.
