WAR ON THE MIDDLE CLASS How the Government, Big Business, and Special Interest Groups Are Waging War on the American Dream and How to Fight Back

Lou Dobbs has an ax to grind with what he calls "the political class" as well as with "special interests," big business, and especially illegal immigrants. He spends most of this audiobook complaining that the middle class is under siege and must fight back against those who hoard power and economic opportunity. Dobbs's ideas on solving these problems are presented in the final 30 minutes. If this sounds familiar, you are a regular viewer of "Lou Dobbs Tonight" on CNN. As a broadcast professional, Dobbs reads smoothly and with authority. Punchy prose and fast-paced delivery move the material along. The book is akin to an extended listen to talk-radio with no call-in segment. T.F. © AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine [Published: APR/ MAY 07]
