From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"Hartmann combines a remarkable piece of historical research with a brilliant literary style to tell the grand story of corporate corruption and its consequences for society with the force and readability of a great novel."
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 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."
Hi Thom,
I am an uneducated white guy in Houston Texas. I went to the Bernie rally when he came to the university of Houston. I donated 100 to his campaign, my first donation ever! My question....why does the media make fun of people like me. Granted the angry white male thing is more about trump, but why denigrate us? I read huffpo, salon, politico and I see a lot of pontification about uneducaed whites for trump and they think they are for him because we are racist. My take is that if it was trump v clinton I would vote trump...do you know why? Because hillary was for the TPP before she was against it. Trump has been very critical of free trade. On that issue alone, I think Trump (might) be ok on trade, I know Hillary wil sell us out. So you tell me why are people like me stupid and racist for voting trump over clinton. If its cruz or rubio I vote for Jill Stein.
The democratic party used to represent working people, that died in 1992. Now its just a bunch of college boys and girls telling us dumb we are and we dont understand the big picture. They tell us to get educated...ok my two kids have 4 year degrees and I am scared for their future.
Can you explain why the establishment hates us?
