Every American worker and voter should read The Great Risk Shift by Jacob S Hacker. This was a 32-year plan that spot-welded a Laissez-fail economic plan and government, which started with Reagan's union-busting and culminated with the handing of the Kingdom's Keys to the financial neo-fascists. Everything that used to be the responsibility of the employer is now the financial responsibility of the worker, which is why the middle/working/poor have made ZERO wage gains in 32 years. They threw out the Social Contract years ago and left us holding the bag.
