The War at Home: The Corporate Offensive From Ronald Reagan To George W. Bush - Economic Class War In America

The War At Home unapologetically attempts to describe and analyze the major elements of that class war being waged today in the U.S. against American workers and their unions. Its ten chapters cover the current Jobs Crisis, offshoring, Free Trade and the collapse of manufacturing, declining wages and workers' incomes, the great American Tax Shift, attacks on Pensions and Social Security, the pending privatization of Medicare, the health care costs crisis, the transformations of the Republican and Democratic parties, the decline of union membership and bargaining power, the pending split in the AFL-CIO, and the origin and evolution of the corporate offensive from Reagan through George W. Bush.
