From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann channels the best of the American Founders with voice and pen. His deep attachment to a democratic civil society is just the medicine America needs."
From Screwed:
"If we are going to live in a Democracy, we need to have a healthy middle class. Thom Hartmann shows us how the ‘cons’ have wronged this country, and tells us what needs to be done to reclaim what it is to be American."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann is a creative thinker and committed small-d democrat. He has dealt with a wide range of topics throughout his life, and this book provides an excellent cross section. The Thom Hartmann Reader will make people both angry and motivated to act."
Re guns, the issues are: a) We are in a violent nation that bombs 3rd world all the time. We have rogue cops that shoot innocent civilians (particularly shooting urban residents) how do we expect some teens to do better. We even have very violent movies, online games, etc. b) We have Big Pharma drugging teens, and causing side effects. We have created our own nightmare, and while children in Africa starve, and suffer in other parts of the world from our bombs and drones, our nations stay quiet.
