Remember Occupy Wall Street? Remember "the one percent"? Remember all that stuff? Just ten years ago, those words and phrases were on everybody's lips. Since then it's all been forgotten---but not by Les Leopold, who has written an important and timely book. What makes it timely is that this is a presidential election year, and we MUST focus on how big business has thrown American workers to the wolves. This book is a handbook and essential reading for anyone, activist or ordinary citizen, who is still interested in this vital issue.
Leopold delves into how mass layoffs upturn lives, ruin entire communities, and make a mockery of the so-called American Dream. The "greed is good" and "shareholders come first" ideology must come to an end, and Leopold delves in to how that must happen.
In one vital segment of the book, he lays waste to myths about the white working class, challenging negative stereotypes. That's the most important part of the book in my opinion. "Wall Street's War on Workers" is going to cause quite a stir! And hopefully it will result in effective change.
