From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom is a national treasure. Read him, embrace him, learn from him, and follow him as we all work for social change."
From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"If you wonder why and when giant corporations got the power to reign supreme over us, here’s the story."
From Cracking the Code:
"Thom Hartmann ought to be bronzed. His new book sets off from the same high plane as the last and offers explicit tools and how-to advice that will allow you to see, hear, and feel propaganda when it's directed at you and use the same techniques to refute it. His book would make a deaf-mute a better communicator. I want him on my reading table every day, and if you try one of his books, so will you."
Senator Sanders, why has no one ever mentioned the "Grand Bargain" on social security that Tip O"Neill and Ronald Reagan crafted in the early 80s? It has had the boomer generation of workers making up for the shortfall for their parents generation as well as ensuring the program's viability well into the 21st century. And now we have to make the sacrifices?
