I’m bringing my Economics Books series to an end today, not with a single book, but with a survey of books explicitly on Bidenomics, pro and con job. I am going to rearrange my writing schedule, and consider what will be most important to take up next. Something like Grokking the GQP, with analyses of their swing state disasters, and our hopes to bring Florida and Texas into that category. I have previously written series on Grokking Republicans and Grokking Trumpists, combining scientific studies on their psychology with their own words when saying the quiet parts out loud.
I want my readers to understand clearly that I have not read all or indeed any of these books. I am presenting them as their authors and publishers intend.

BIDENOMICS: The economic philosophy of Joe Biden, a good or bad for the American people?, by John O. A.
On Twitter in June 2023, Biden stated his economic philosophy: "Bidenomics is about growing the economy from the middle out and the bottom up, not the top down. It is a vision for the economy in which we make wise investments in the country, educate and empower American workers, and encourage competition to drive down prices and support small companies.”
Joe Biden And The Bidenomics: What You Should Know (Political Issues Today), by Robert H. Adams
On Wednesday, 28th June, 2023, from Chicago, Illinois, President Biden unveiled his idea for “Bidenomics” – a name he admitted he did not develop but has since claimed. He indicated his economic plans will concentrate on supporting the middle class while combating policies that benefit affluent investors and companies.
Similarly, "Trickle-down Economics” was championed in the 1980s under former Republican President Ronald Reagan and has been promoted in different versions by succeeding Republican leaders.
But Biden, on wednesday, issued a broadside against the theory, which refers to the assumption that tax cuts and other advantages for the rich would eventually “trickle down” and bolster all levels of society.
On the pee-ons.
BIDENOMICS: SPENDING TO RESCUE AMERICA (International Relations and Diplomacy), by Uwem Essia
No, not spending, investment.
Bidenomics is a term coined in 2021 to describe the theoretical economic perspective of President Biden’s economic package for growing the American economy. Bidenomics contrasts with the previously dominant economic model, known globally as the Washington Consensus, which dominated the pro-Western economic policymaking and thinking since the 1980s.
Unlike in the Washington Consensus where scarcity is considered to be a key constraint, Bidenomics, like Keynesianism, assumes that potential demand for production inputs (including technology) is unlimited, and what causes a recession to exist is slack in funding, not scarcity. Thus injecting the adequate dose of funds to economic actors (households, firms, and governments) will hasten recovery from a recession, and as well ensure speedy post-recovery growth, provided the stimuli are properly targeted at the set of actors with severe purchasing power deficiencies. The global financial system is awash with surplus savings that can be procured to finance budgetary deficits, and additional funding is to be sourced from taxing the affluent class and rich corporations.
Fundamentally Bidenomics has reinvented and utilized Keynes’s liquidity trap as the typical recession scenario, where recovery requires that economic actors be supported with doses of additional purchasing power to regain confidence in the system.
Bidenomics and the Hillbilly Highway, by Max Fraser
It does not require an advanced degree to decipher one key strategic calculus underlying President Joe Biden’s multi-pronged industrial policy agenda, designed to bolster domestic manufacturing while speeding the transition to a green economy and now nicknamed “Bidenomics” by friend and foe alike. In the nine months beginning in August 2022, more than 75 percent of new investment subsidized by the CHIPS and Inflation Reduction Acts, Bidenomics’ legislative centerpieces, went towards semiconductor and clean energy projects located in Republican congressional districts. Two deep-red states, Georgia and South Carolina, led all others during that time in newly announced manufacturing endeavors. The southeast generally, a bastion of GOP control, has attracted more federally subsidized projects than any other region in the country.
Not content to let such numbers speak for themselves, the White House spent much of the year hammering home to voters just who they have to thank for the windfall. So it was that Vice President Kamala Harris was dispatched to Dalton, Georgia, in the heart of administration-scourge Marjorie Taylor Greene’s district, to tout a new $2.5 billion investment by a South Korean clean energy company that promised to “create 2,500 more jobs right here in Georgia.” As Biden himself reminded an audience in West Columbia, South Carolina, home to a new solar energy partnership made possible by tax incentives provided by the IRA, “Every Republican member of the House in this state voted to repeal the clean energy provisions of the Inflation Reduction Act that…attracted all these jobs.”
Bidenomics’ regional tilt does smack of a crudely tactical focus on the 2024 elections. But it also makes good economic sense.
