The War At Home

No dispensable academic tome, THE WAR AT HOME, while providing a monumentally researched analysis of those well-orchestrated government abuses designed and implemented over the last three decades to enlarge and reward corporate America at the expense of labor, the small business man and the American family, also functions as a kind of workbook or primer for change. Rasmus carefully breaks the book down into separate chronological studies of such issues as Health Care, Free Trade, Tax Shifts and Social Security, methodically walks the reader through a mind field of crippling historical developments characterized by corporate malfeasance and political chicanery, then offers possible approaches and even solutions to the multi-layered. problems. This is a compelling, richly documented and incite fully constructed work that seeks to both define strategies and to suggest remedy. I would recommend it highly.

review of JacK Rasmus, WAR AT HOME

This is an exciting, comphrensive assessment of the political economy of the US during the last 25 years. It shows how power has been developed, and by whom, over this period of time. It explains why we are where we are. Everyone with an interest in American political and economic history should read this book. It really puts everything in one place. It is a heck of an analysis. I highly recommend it to all.
