Beyond Outrage: What has gone wrong with our economy and our democracy, and how to fix them (Kindle Single)
ASIN:B0078XCKUA
Product Description
In this eBook exclusive, Robert B. Reich urges Americans to get beyond mere outrage about the nation’s increasingly concentrated wealth and corrupt politics in order to mobilize and to take back our economy and democracy.
Americans can’t rely only on getting good people elected, Reich argues, because nothing positive happens in Washington unless good people outside Washington are organized to help make those things happen after the election. But in order to be effectively mobilized, we need to see the big picture. Reich connects the dots for us, showing why the increasing share of income and wealth going to the top has hobbled jobs and growth for everyone else, while undermining our democracy; has caused Americans to become increasingly cynical about public life; and has turned many Americans against one another. He also explains why the proposals of the “regressive right” are dead wrong and provides a clear road map for what must be done instead. Here is a blueprint for action for everyone who cares about the future of America.

Reich about identifying the problems the United States is facing. HIs focus on the future of the United States in the economy, and the lives of the people living here. He provides a simple and clear explanation for the causes of our problems, what is happening now, and what needs to happen in the future. Reich also reminds people that it can take years to accomplish changes. The enhanced edition contains videos which provide further explanation and clarity for his talking points. I was a bit frustrated because the videos wouldn't play on my Kindle Fire, on my Kindle app on my computer or in the Amazon Cloud Player. There was no guidance regarding the devices I might read my enhanced book on. Finally I tried my IPad and it worked quite well. I just don't know why it was left to me to find the perfect device. Better labeling would help. But anyway, nice book. 15 of 18 people found the following review helpful By Robert Owsinski (Dearborn Hts., MI USA) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Beyond Outrage (Enhanced Edition) (Kindle Edition with Audio/Video) I often read Dr. Reichs columns and find his analysis right on target. I was not disappointed here.If only he was back in a policy position. It's this type of wisdom we need implemented PS: the videos ( with his excellent charts) will not work on Android or PC versions of Kindles Oh. And Joe Scarborough I watch Morning Joe every morning. Please read this book. |
