Former U.S. Secretary of Labor Robert Reich (Aftershock, Beyond Outrage) has been offering provocative opinions on the economy for years. In Saving Capitalism, he turns his gaze to the intersection of politics and the economy–and at what point America got it wrong. Reich outlines this broken system–what happened to the free market, where the middle class went, and the highest income inequality the nation has ever seen–and gives counsel on what it will take to fix it. For liberals and conservatives alike, he’ll outline his approach and offer a call to action for anyone unhappy with the current economy.
