520			_aHomophobia and transphobia cost 1% or more of a country's GDP. Badgett uses recent research and statistics to analyze how these hostile practices and environments affect both the US and global economies. She offers some new ways of thinking to convert the many people who use their power to hurt LGBT people, by excluding them from the core institutions that make it possible to live a good life. Understanding the economic cost of that homophobia and transphobia gives activists, businesses, development agencies, and policymakers a new tool that can help change lives.
