From Screwed:
"The powers that be are running roughshod over the powers that OUGHT to be. Hartmann tells us what went wrong — and what you and I can do to help set American right again."
From Screwed:
"Thom Hartmann’s book explains in simple language and with concrete research the details of the Neo-con’s war against the American middle class. It proves what many have intuited and serves to remind us that without a healthy, employed, and vital middle class, America is no more than the richest Third World country on the planet."
From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"Beneath the success and rise of American enterprise is an untold history that is antithetical to every value Americans hold dear. This is a seminal work, a godsend really, a clear message to every citizen about the need to reform our country, laws, and companies."
Feedback: a caller mentioned.
Remember that guy that put in a plug for The National Exchange Club?
I looked that up, and I'm wondering if it's not ALEC Junior.ALEC, the American Legislative Exchange Council
Here's their website https://www.nationalexchangeclub.org/content/about-exchange
"Each member of Exchange holds near to their heart three core values – Family, Community and Country."
They have an "Exchange Covenant of Service" and a scary looking "Americanism" effort, hell-bent on keeping "under God" in the pledge of allegiance which they want every student to swear to.
Questionable at least, but I'm wondering if it's not really ALEC in training.
