Question

I'm writing a synthesis paper about why we should utilize middle-out economics (basically economics that focus on the middle class)

I'm very new to the topic so I don't want to spread myself too thin or dive into something I don't know too much about.

I'm planning on doing three paragraphs.
#1: Trickle-down Economics/ why it doesn't work
#2: Middle-out Economics in the past / why it worked
#3: Benefits for the future

My main problem is that my second paragraph talks a lot about income inequality. If I make it a separate point, I feel like there wouldn't be enough information and if I replace #2's point, then the paper won't be cohesive.

Do you have any tips on structuring this paper? Thank you!

Make sure you're clear on all your terminology. Read several definitions of each so you are more likely to get the whole picture.
