The so-called Obamaphone program started in 1984 to provide telephone service to poor people, because not having a phone is a big hindrance to getting a job. In recent years, the program has provided cell phones, and some of the companies that make them branded them in 2009 as Obamaphones, to capitalize on Obama's popularity, but they have nothing whatsoever to do with him. If any President were to get credit or blame for it, I guess it would be Reagan.

From Screwed:

"I think many of us recognize that for all but the wealthiest, life in America is getting increasingly hard. Screwed explores why, showing how this is no accidental process, but rather the product of conscious political choices, choices we can change with enough courage and commitment. Like all of Thom’s great work, it helps show us the way forward."

—Paul Loeb, author of Soul of a Citizen and The Impossible Will Take a Little While

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."

—Paul Hawken, coauthor of Natural Capitalism and author of The Ecology of Commerce

From The Thom Hartmann Reader:

"Never one to shy away from the truth, Thom Hartmann’s collected works are inspiring, wise, and compelling. His work lights the way to a better America."

—Van Jones, cofounder of RebuildTheDream.com and author of The Green Collar Economy
