Book Reviews of War on the Middle Class: How the Government, Big Business, and Special Interest Groups Are Waging War on the American Dream and How to Fight Back

Book Review: Dobbs is dead on about the problems in this nation
Summary: 5 Stars

For years I have worried and believed our economy was smoke and mirrors. Seriously, is a housing market expansion a REAL sign of a growing economy or just a bubble or debt and overreaching by people buying more house than they really need? My point is being made as I type this review.

Lou Dobbs attacks both parties and the hypocrisy of the system that has given us the incompetence in Washington DC. He notes that Kerry and Bush campaign for President and all we hear about is Swift Boats and National Guard service time instead of REAL issues that impact our nation. He addresses the middle class and the jobs that go overseas where people are hired on the cheap while people and families then have to scurry to find some type of work just to pay the bills. Illegal immigration continues (why? To drive down wages, of course!) and Dobbs hits both parties on their insipid but continued arguments about our nation. Companies are far from patriotic - they are out for the mighty dollar and don't care about the future of this nation or its workforce while our politicians who say what we want to hear continue to rob our financial futures with their idiocy and incompetence.

I used to believe in free trade as does Dobbs, but he points out FAIR trade is the answer. We've sold ourselves to the CHinese for cheap products and it has gotten us where we are today. In debt to a Chinese nation that wants to see us kowtow to them in the world economy. Each day, we inch closer to that time.

Dobbs is dead on, but until we (the voters) throw the bums out and get REAL leaders in local, state and Federal positions were doomed under the so called "free markets" thinkers of today who are wrecking our economy.
