Discover the pivotal insights in 'Can the Welfare State Survive?' by Andrew Gamble, a must-read for anyone interested in economics, social policy, and the future of welfare states. This 2016 publication from John Wiley & Sons presents a compelling analysis of the welfare state amidst a backdrop of economic crisis and austerity measures. With a focus on the pressing issue of whether societies can afford generous and inclusive welfare programs, Gamble argues that the welfare state is not a hindrance but a necessary component of a prosperous society. This thought-provoking book explores how political will and structural reforms can allow welfare states to thrive in an increasingly competitive global economy. The text highlights the historical context, economic implications, and social justice considerations surrounding the welfare state, making it an essential read for policymakers, students, and anyone invested in social equity. Join the conversation about the future of welfare and why we must advocate for a robust system that benefits all citizens.

Description:
After the most serious economic crash since the 1930s and the slowest recovery on record, austerity rules. Spending on the welfare state did not cause the crisis, but deep cuts in welfare budgets has become the default policy response. The welfare state is seen as a burden on wealth creation which can no longer be afforded in an ever more competitive global economy. There are calls for it to be dismantled altogether.
In this incisive book, leading political economist Andrew Gamble explains why western societies still need generous inclusive welfare states for all their citizens, and are rich enough to provide them. Welfare states can survive, he argues, but only if there is the political will to reform them and to fund them.

Asurion Protection is worth it
After 3 years monitor had power issues. Asurion was unable to repair the monitor and provided a full refund with an Amazon Gift Card. Support was excellent and process was quick and easy.

Quick and Fantastic Service!
I include the additional protection for all of my high dollar purchases. This was the first time I have ever had to use it. I had an extension to provide additional screens to my laptop. Unfortunately, it developed an issue. Submitting a claim was easy and straightforward. UPS came the next day to pick it up and I was notified in just a couple of days that it was received. Only a couple of days after that, I received an email stating that my laptop screens were not repairable and I was given an Amazon card for the entire purchase price. I could not have been more pleased, as the purchase price was $599 and was a huge splurge for me in the first place. I was able to quickly replace the screens and back in business in no time. I would recommend this protection plan for any high dollar purchase.

They paid on the policy
I bought a four year replacement policy on my modem and two years into its lifespan it stopped working. I trouble shot with the company but we eventually determined it was dead. I contacted Asurion, they sent me a pre-paid address label, I mailed the defective modem, they found that it was dead and deposited a credit in the amount of the original purchase in my Amazon account, all within a few days. I am quite happy with the service. Just so you know, the reimbursement is through a gift card at Amazon which you can draw down against your purchases; it is not CASH.

Nearly 3 years later, Asurion had my back :)
In Nov of 2017 I bought a $900 35" Ultra wide PC monitor for Gaming and Work.
It was made by a company called AOC/Envision and I bought it through amazon.
The monitor had a 3 year warranty that I was still within but they said no to a defect that they said was only covered for 1 year, even though it wasn't the type of defect that was only covered for 1 year.
LUCKILY, back in 2017 I had purchased an Asurion insurance policy with this monitor.
I told an Asurion agent in a instant messaging chat window on the Asurion website my problem and she sent me postage in an email. I shipped my product and in 5 days from shipping it I received a text telling me that it was beyond repair and I would be getting a FULL REFUND!
Not 2hr later, in an email, there it was, an amazon gift card code for $900
I will not be making any big purchases without an Asurion plan going forward. Happy customer
Don't buy anything AOC
