  • Thom's Blog Is On the Move

    Hello All

    Thom's blog in this space and moving to a new home.

    Please follow us across to hartmannreport.com - this will be the only place going forward to read Thom's blog posts and articles.

    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."
    Dean Baker, economist and author of Plunder and Blunder, False Profits, and Taking Economics Seriously
    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 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."
    Jim Hightower, National Radio Commentator, Writer, Public Speaker, and author of the bestselling Thieves in High Places
