How the Government, Big Business, and Special Interest Groups Are Waging War on the American Dream and How to Fight Back
by Lou Dobbs
The middle class has never been so vulnerable. Its every feature is under assault by politicians and the lobbyists who court them, big-business corporations that are sending their jobs overseas, and a media that relies on sensationalism instead of facts when reporting the news. In a sweeping analysis, Dobbs looks at every aspect of the decline of the middle class - from a lack of political representation to Americas corrupt health-care system - to demonstrate how the gap between Americas newest haves and have-nots is no longer merely financial, but instead includes the erosion of education, employment, government, and community.
Starred Review. "Agree with him or not, Dobbs remains a refreshingly bold thinker who refuses to be intellectually pigeonholed. " - PW.
