Unions, Public Health, Government Action, Oh My

The American domestic landscape has never been bleaker. Gone are the optimistic ideals of the American dream. The income gap continues to increase, the American manufacturing industry has all but disappeared, and jobs are outsourced overseas. When manufacturing opportunities disappear, we compete for low-paying service industry jobs. Our access to health care, clean water, and clear air is threatened by government paralysis. While elected officials squabble, place blame, and fail to represent the people who elected them, the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. The once thriving middle class is withering.

What happened in the last fifty years to drive these negative changes? What is the role of the government in these turbulent times? Does the individual have a voice for change? If so, how best can we achieve positive government reform?

Author Paul Gordon recognizes the need for a government that's capable of evolving with the populace. He sees the Constitution as a living document that can adjust to the times. His timely new book, Unions, Public Heath, Government Action, Oh My, is an insightful and brutally honest analysis of how we got here and how we can return to a robust economy-one built for Americans, by Americans.
